    £30 Amazon voucher is 615 iPoints - or was, last time I looked. It's what I'm saving for ...

    Just checked out my T&V account and noticed they had two new products to test. One of them is a toothbrush.
    Have you ever heard about this product?
    Have you ever tested this product before? :rotfl:
    I just cant stop laughing....
    It looks just like any other normal toothbrush. Cant imagine many people answering no to this one.

    I've often wondered what they mean with those questions. Do they speak in generic terms, or do they refer to the precise model shown? :confused:

    I hope they won't be sending an envelope for the lucky recipient to return the toothbrush in after testing.......:rolleyes:

    My boyfriend got a "farmed out" 3rd party survey from t&v yesterday. The third party, who neither of us had heard of, wanted his house number and postcode, with no option to decline! I mean, fair enough, you need a region for screening purposes sometimes, but thought that asking for that much info was a bit much, personally. Maybe not, though. After all, we're both quite new to surveys, perhaps it's normal!?

    No, Sophy, it's not normal, and I would not have submitted the completed survey, unless I had been told why the info was needed, etc.

    Thanks very much indeed for the info, droopsnout. Since we both found it quite odd, I must admit that he didn't proceed with the survey, and just closed the window there and then, but I was beginning to wonder, in hindsight, if we'd been over-paranoid, and it was normal procedure!

    I have been asked just for postcode, but never for house number as well. To be avoided.
