Just had a thought. There are lots of Survey websites out there and some require us logging in daily and checking if surveys need doing cos the survey site doesnt send out emails (one poll, pureprofile, surveyhead to name three).

For August October, pick one Survey website and then every day in August October, make a point of logging in to that website, making sure your profile is complete, check for surveys etc, do polls if you chose Toluna ... that sort of thing. Find out if there is a referral thread on MSE and post your referral link on it. Maybe email family members and friends and see if they are willing to sign up and do enough so you get the referral money.

The aim is to make a good dent in what your total is now and get closer to the payout level.

Does anyone want to join me ?

    Great idea. I am useless with checking the survey sites so would love to join please.

    I will be checking Onepoll and currently have £16 in my account. The payout amount is £40.

  • Thanks for this Cally.

    I'm not too good at checking survey sites, even though I've got them on my favourites under 'do daily' :rolleyes:.

    I'll join and promise to check Onepoll everyday. To show willing I've just checked and earned 20p (and entered a competition) :D.

    I'm on £15.95 at the moment

    Hi Cally,

    Thanks for the info... I have been doing lightspeed for about 3 yrs though and taken nothing out... I was keeping it for a "rainy day" but I think that the car is going to win out!
