    I got offered the same chance to install the program, but I had already tried the program out on Lightspeed. Completely messed my system up. Not worth installing it in my opinion. It was a much better reward on Ligthspeed too. 500 points after a month (~£4.50) and 250 points (~£2.25) for every 3 months after. But still I gave up after 2 days.

    The most frustrating thing about Valued Opinions is the amount of the time it takes for pending credits to be applied. I've got over £10 of credit pending at the moment...

  • i just contacted the people who gave me the software(not VO) and asked what have you installed? they basically said that I have done it wrong even though I'm sure I haven't. Bit annoyed with them now...I don't even know what I've installed!!!

    I have been screened out automatically from their surveys for weeks so emailed them and got this reply:-

    Thank you very much for emailing us. I am very sorry to read your disappointment with Valued Opinions.

    I completely understand your situation and the frustration you must feel not being able to take our surveys anymore.

    In the past we have been exposed to malicious panelists giving untruthful responses and manipulating research results. Obviously, this compromises the quality of all data collected and puts our service at risk.

    We have therefore been forced to implement a system to prevent this from re-occurring. The correspondences we have received has alerted us that some of our loyal and certainly very much valued panelists, such as yourself, have been adversely affected by these issues and for this we are truly sorry.

    We are currently working hard on finding a solution to address this serious issue which, although it helps us to improve the quality of our service, causes so much frustration among our members. We expect to have eradicated this issue over the next month and aim to notify you of our services being available again soon. In the meantime, regrettably there is nothing I can do to improve the situation. All we can ask is for your continued patience while we focus our energies on solving this problem.

    I hope that you will soon able to take our surveys again. Please accept my sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused.



    I haven't done anything wrong, so am hoping they will let me access them soon :confused:

    I know, I've had the same email and this has been going on for a month, but managed to complete 1 survey today, so keeping my fingers crossed!! Really annoying been with 3 years with no problems until now!

    I've had this happen sometimes but just keep checking because suddenly you will find it is all available. They do say it can take up to 28 days to be available.

    How long is the TV survey for? I thought it was only for a week - if so, why does it say week1? Yet it hasn't sent any info about further weeks or the questionnaire that you have to fill in to get the reward at the end of it.

    Copied from the original e-mail
    The incentives will only be paid once the follow-up questionnaire is completed, which will be sent after the diary stage.

    Doesent say how long after the diary stage the questionnaire will be sent though.

    On Monday I filled in Sunday's details - which was the last day of the survey. When I have logged on to check since the screen thanks me for updating, tells me there are no more available days and then asks me to come back tomorrow - That's what got me wondering if there is going to be another week/s of survey.
