Did anyone else do the survey whereby VO sent out a CD which you listened to and clicked whether liked or disliked the music being played? It was for £40, followed by a short survey worth £5. I think the survey finished around 10 days ago and I wondered whether the reward was yet showing in anyone's accounts.

Thanks

Yes, this is what I was told, too. I was asked to buy a ticket that was not my usual ticket and so they asked me to buy a EuroMillions ticket @ £1.50. And the ticket will be refunded. There was no mention of it being included in the £15.
Still no reply from them. I know next time, not to bother buying the requested item on the promise of a refund.

I've checked my reward history and I think it's this item :-

Worth checking as they seem to add the rewards fairly randomly.

Yep.

Hello Mike,
Thank you for completing the music part of the survey. You have already earned £40.

Once you complete this part of the survey, you will earn an additional £5, for a total of £45.


That was the last message I received, payment in 4/6 weeks by cheque I believe.

I am receiving surveys & managing to complete some but I cannot log into my account. As soon as I hit "enter" after my log-in, it goes back to the same screen.

Anyone had this problem?

Solved it. Had disc failure & now computer is back I had pop-ups blocked so allowed this site & everything OK. Really glad as had nearly £30 to redeem!

Has anyone else had a survey asking about three separate brands and rateing them? (I wont state the brands as I went back to try again on the same link and was given three new and different brands).

I am getting repeated errors! Its mad! I get to a page asking me to write my opinions in 20 seconds. I get 5 seconds then the page vanishes and 15 seconds later I am told to rate the next brand....

I had so many errors I gave up! Only to find not only was I signed out of MSE, but also my email and my ebay account- wierd, maybe it has a virus- be careful if you get this survey, I had to reboot and when I was ready to start again, I got a "bug" and "error" warning from Google who I have a tool bar with which asked me to send a report before I could open an internet expelorer page.

Sounds like they deleted your cookies - not a virus.
It's probably been done to stop you accessing the survey again. If it wipes all your cookies - as done here - it would have logged you out of everything.

I did it yesterday Jennie, it crashed for me half way through then when I reaccessed it let me finish it just fine, didnt notice it logging me out of anything though.

Didn't delete any cookies- I did have a virus sweep after trying the survey no less then three times- yes I am mad, I really wanted to finish the survey and was allowed to repeatedly go through the same link to try again- so unlikely to be cookies.

Have emailed VO who will no doubt ask me to provide a link 3 months later which I will no longer have as it was a link they provided on the site after failing to get through on a previous survey (something about criterea).

I did a quick adware check with my virus protection only to find 207!! I do a sweep through every night so I find it a little odd that this survey goes wrong, it was one of the first things I did that day after the last nights virus and adware check and then I get heaped with adware! Maybe not a virus, but not far off.
