    dont install the android app from vp. drains your phone battery very very quickly :(

    You are right about the battery drain issue. Ridiculous! I went out on a day trip and had to uninstall it to try and stop the battery draining so fast. Don't know if it was the GPS issue, I leave my GPS off.

    I have installed it on my tablet though. Will see if I get any surveys to it that way. Probably not.

    Well for the first time in probably 3 months I've completed not 1 but 2 surveys!! I'm at I think £6 odd now. I'm trying to get Boots vouchers for my Christmas shopping, got £20 already just hoping I complete enough surveys to get another £10 voucher in time

    Every single survey i've been emailed about recently has said it's full as soon as I click on it, or i've not qualified.

    I just got one emailed to me which said I didn't qualify before I had even answered any questions! I clicked the link in the email and it opened the website saying I hadn't qualified :mad:

    I've just been through 12 surveys one after the other and didn't get on a single one :(

    I had a period where similar thing happened with me but so far this year I have received £40 with £10 vouchers each month in Feb/May/June/Aug. I still have quite a number where I am rejected but I do find that you need to try them as soon as they appear.

    I did a survey yesterday, a ONE HOUR survey at that worth £3. When I pressed submit it came up with an error. My participation history says "Survey started". I emailed them but no response as yet! grrrrrrrr

    Did anyone else do the £20 survey on insurance? I did it on 29/04/14 and it's still showing as a pending payment.

    I didn't do the one in April but I did a couple earlier in the year and got paid for them ok.
    Given the length of time, I would drop them an email and ask when you should expect to get paid :)

    I'm in the same boat - did the survey but the payment is still marked as "pending"

    My new favourite: being sent surveys I have already completed.
