Survey Stashing: YouGov hints & tips

kad1

I'm on about £23 having been with Ugov for over a year. As soon as i reach £50 i'm calling it a day.

I've just reached £50 today and I've been doing surveys over 2 years.
However, I agree with what some other posters have said, when you get a survey you know you are going to get paid for it. With some other companies, you can be answering questions for 10 minutes and end up with nothing as you are disqualified. I get furious at that.

You Gov are the only surveys I actually enjoy doing. I'll let you know how long it takes for me to get my cheque. I trust that company more than any of the others. They seem a lot more fair reward wise than other companies.

I have been with them quite a while....I wasn't really getting loads while I was a student. But when I started working as a teacher I get looooooads about education now. I'm up in the £40 bracket (think 43) so fingers crossed I'll get to £50 before the end of the year.

I've had a £50 cheque from them. I couldn't honestly say when that was but I'm now back up to £37. All I know is it's been a long time. Do they still do their referal scheme? As I know that helped when I used it last. I think they matched your referals' earnings for their first 6 months as a yougov panalist, but I could be wrong

They still have a referral scheme, more than half of the £50 I am waiting 3 more weeks to receive, was from recruit's activities.

The qualifying period is only 3 months. Here is what they say in the Referral link

For each new member that signs up via your personalised registration link below, you will receive equivalent amounts in survey credit for each survey they complete during their first three months of membership.

I suppose I could be cheeky and put the aforementioned link here below, but that would not be right.

Join from Martin's link if he has one.

If not, see my website homepage in my profile for more info on stuff.

My mum is now on the way to her third £50 whilst im currently working my way towards the second. It took ages to earn whilst I was a student but now im working for the nhs I seem to be getting a lot more.

I joined in May 08, and am up to £25 - so hopefully should have my £50 in another year or so It does take a looooong time to build it up, but I am sad and quite enjoy Yougov's surveys anyway so I don't mind! They're always interesting and topical (unlike some other survey companies I could mention, which seem to like sending me a million surveys about washing powder!), so to get a nice £50 cheque will be a lovely extra bonus whenever it comes.

I've been keeping a record of everything extra I make each month, for the £10 a day challenge on Debt-free Wannabee - from Yougov this year I've made;
Jan 50p
Feb £3
March £2.50
April £1.75
May 50p again! lol.

I have been with Yougov for about 3 years and i am now just starting my third £50. For some reason the surveys have slowed down over the last few months, you could get 3 or 4 surveys a week and then nothing for about a month. It took them about 4 weeks to send my latest cheque but they are the best to work for not like Toluna who make you fill in their surverys and then tell you they have enough people for the survey after 10 minutes.
