  • In the past month I seem to be getting a touch more. I've been a member of that site for about half a year now and done about 5-6 surveys I think. Up until the start of the year I did about 1 survey. Now I am on about 350 points, but I think I am only getting more because of the elections. I expect to get next to no surveys once the election has been and gone.

    They probably have at least the company name on google alerts, which means they get notification if the name is used anywhere online, they can then see what people/other companies are saying about them and respond if necessary, we get a lot of this on the beauty board when we mention products and a company rep comes online as well to comment.
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    It took me about 2 years to get my first £50 but that was when I was a student (the survey companies seem to give you less surveys then). I actually found that it seemed to speed up when I was in the 40s!

    I wouldn't give up yet, I've had a few recently what with the general election - a lot of yougov surveys are political. They were pretty quick to send the cheque when I did reach £50 aswell.
    Excuse any mis-spelt replies, there's probably a cat sat on the keyboard
  • It took me about 2 years to get my cheque too. But I did get it!

    I'm 50 points away from my £50!! One more paid survey is all I need and it's taking ages.
    I always get the prize draw surveys but don't do them as I think it's best to give everyone a little than give one person a lot in this situation and if I had been paid for every prize draw survey I got sent then I would've made the 5000 points total a year ago as would've a load of people.
    C'mon YouGov one more survey, one more survey pleeeeeeeeaaaassseeeee :iloveyou:
