    Hi,

    I'm doing this survey too. I've just checked the original email and it goes on for 32 weeks altogether. After we complete the diary we get paid £30. Only about another 16 weeks to go then! :rolleyes:

    Iam doing a very long and borring drinks diary with VO, under the title Socialising and drinks. They only said there would be a prize draw for mine, no mention of any payment :(

    Yeah - sounds like the same one. Here's the original email:

    Dear Sir, Madam

    We are really pleased that you have agreed to take part in this exciting research regarding socialising, drinks and your day to day experiences. Below you will find a link to the online diary part of this research together with your login details.

    We have also included a link to a form you can download to keep track of your drink consumption. If you use this method you won’t need to login daily and you will be able to insert all drinks for the week towards the end of the week. From Sunday each week, we will ask you a few detailed questions about two of the drinks you had during the week.

    As a reward for your participation we will be offering all respondents that complete the diary part £30.00. We will also have prize draws of £100.00 every 4 weeks (weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 and 32) for respondents that have completed all consecutive weeks. During Christmas there will be a special prize draw of £500.00 and at the end of the 36 weeks we will have 3 prize draws of £1000.00 each!

    There is a limited number of weeks that can be missed for qualification

    Note that if you miss 3 weeks, you will automatically be disqualified and we will not send you the reward for this study. Please do not close your browser in the middle of answering questions for a week/day. Close the browser once you get to the menu page where you can select exit.

    Mine came via Bailey's but is being hosted by Valued Opinions, the email looks almost the same apart from all I get is :

    As a reward for your participation we will have prize draws of £100.00 every 4 weeks (weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 and 32) for respondents that have completed all consecutive weeks.

    So not happy that some they are paying some £30 and other nothing :mad: as it is really long and borring.

    I just spent about 20 minutes 'completing' a V.O. survey (about my little one's snacking habits), only to then be told:
    "Thanks for your answers. Unfortunately you haven't qualified for this survey."

    :doh: :mad: :eek:

    Sometimes you get screened out if you tick answers in a straight line or too quickly, and they also put trick questions in to catch you out like 'tick column 2 for this answer'.

    Iv'e had this a few times, and again today.
    I was asked my age at the start of the survey, to which i answered.
    then later in the survey, once i had answered 20 mins worth of questions, i was asked my date of birth, which i gave then,
    The next screen said unfortunately you do not fit.....................
