    I think you've got the wrong survey site GemGem. Pinecone referrals do not get points for referral and Pinecone dont even deal in points.

    I've been with them for a while, like the OP I only get around one survey every 4-6 weeks, but they do pay within a day or two of you doing the survey, and they have never screened me out of a survey either. Just wish the surveys would come more often.

    How does it work? How do you get paid? I've just signed up to it and I've done surveys before, but never made enough to get a payout (yet).

    Thanks

    Pinecone pay per survey either direct to your paypal account or in Luncheon vouchers! So if you've completed surveys you ought to have been paid. :eek:

    Check your address details in case they've been posting the vouchers to the wrong place.

    Sorry, I don't think my last post made sense. I've signed up to Pinecone today and hopefully I'll be accepted *fingers crossed* but I've done surveys on other sites before and not made enough yet for a pay out. I've used OnePoll and Ipsos. Gave up on Ipsos now though as I don't like their system with points and didn't seem to be getting anywhere. I just wondered how you got paid from Pinecone, but you've answered me now thanks. Any idea how I set up a Paypal account, or could I use my OH's?

    Its easy enough to set up your own as long as you have your own email address. Just make sure when you do that you use the same email as you've used to register for Pinecone.

    (and your post makes perfect sense now I read it back - teaches me to read and post on here while I'm meant to be doing my OU assignment in another window, lol.)

    The first few payments have to be in luncheon vouchers I think, then you get an email saying you can change your payments to paypal if you want to.
    The luncheon vouchers don't need to be used for meals, you can use them at the tills for your ordinary shopping in the big supermarket chains.
    I get one every 6 weeks or so. My mum, once I put her onto, it gets loads more than me - they're obviously lacking in the silver surfer department. I keep telling her she owes me commission but not seen any dosh off her as yet.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    I've had LVs for years from Pinecone. Switching to Paypal just feels a bit wrong so far in...plus I save my LVs up and treat myself and a friend to a Wetherspoon breakfast
