    Yes, I think I've been with them over ten years. Normally, I draw the line at 20-minute surveys for £1. I don't do anything that pays less than £3 per hour, and all the survey companies are pushing it at that rate, anyway. Well below minimum wage!

    So £40 for 2½ hours would have had me quite excited!!

  • I got a £25 reward a few weeks ago, it was for gas/electricity readings etc, 4 surveys to be completed over 3 days (I think).

    Very nice to get such a large amount of money for a relatively short time.

    Through VO, I got invited to a Communispace which gives £10 a month in Amazon vouchers for being an active user (plus bonus rewards for extra activities). If anyone gets the opportunity to join one through VO, I'd definitely recommend it.

    I ordered an Argos voucher and it asked me to verify my address and stated I would receive this within 28 days. Next thing I know I get an e'mail with the voucher code to print off, which is no good to me as I haven't got a printer nor do I have access to one, also you had a couple of years to use this before the gift cards expired, the e'code is 11 months. What a shame as it is not worth me staying with them now.

    I've now received the payment for this.

    I haven't received mine yet. Phoned up and they said they would email someone about it and email me back. Heard nothing so far. Not very pleased. Was asked if I had missed any days out. Definitely not, I said, which is true. Another survey I completed at the start of March still hasn't been paid to anyone according to them. Not impressed.
  • is anyone struggling to get onto the VO website this morning? It's been on and off for a couple of days, looping on itself, but this morning it's properly broken. Plus there's probs getting Amazon vouchers again, I've been trying for a week to order one and they're "out of stock".

    Anyone know what's happening? I hope they're not going to go under, for a start I've just finished a six month Baileys diary survey that I'm looking forward to getting £30 for completing, I'd like to think all that constant form filling isn't going to be for nothing :o/

    Was that the 1 where you fill in everything alcoholic you drink each day. I did that thought it was for £20 though lol.
    I've not got that 1 showing or a £3 one for filling in 5 days of out the house drinks. At bottom of my reward history bit. It does show 3 others that are pending tho. Hope I still get it:D

    I wouldn't worry too much, Valued Opinions regularly go out of stock of the popular Amazon vouchers, the annoying thing is they can sometimes take many weeks to come back in stock again :(
