Hi all,I've been hanging about here for a couple of weeks but just signed up today,this is my first post.Great site,great forum and in may I say in finest toadying fashion,great people!What a crawler...

I joined Survey Network about 2 weeks ago and after completing the initial surveys I've found their daily email just contains the same old 5 I've already done!(Yawn)I mean,don't bother if you haven't got a new one for me.

I detect the faint whiff of rat,however I haven't been with them long and there does appear to be some positive testimonials on here so I'll wait and see...


P.S. I've also had the full survey/did not qualify experience Vivash,it's quite a kick in the gut after giving them a half hour of your life,what a swizz.

i joined 2 months ago and my experience is the same as yours In my opinion site is a scam i.e get the answers they want from you and then tell you after you have completed more than half,in some cases, the "alleged" survey that you do not quallify

I've actually managed to complete quite a few of the first couple they send but I don't appear to be getting credited even though they're meant to in a couple of days.

I found this paragraph in Surveynetwork's terms of service:

You are responsible to make sure that all your settings on the computer are setup correctly so that all the surveys track correctly. Some of the things you have to make sure include, but not limited to that your cookies are set to accept, spyware blockers are off and if possible firewalls are switched off. If you don’t get credited for a lot of surveys you do that means that there must be something wrong with your computer setup and not SurveyNetwork.co.uk tracking. We are not responsible for paying you for transactions if the advertiser does not pay us for them or if they didn’t track your transactions(survey complete). By joining SurveyNetwork.co.uk you agree to this term. If you experience issues with crediting it is your responsibility to alert our customer service right away so that we can troubleshoot with you the issue.

I'm not sure what to make of this as I'm not very computer savvy.Forgive my ignorance but would this not leave your PC vulnerable to attack?I'm especially wary as a lot of their surveys appear to come from Russia.

If anyone with a knowledge of such things could comment on the Surveynetwork paragraph above it would be much appreciated.In the meantime I have emailed them asking for assistance.It's all a little confusing compared to other sites,I may just unsubscribe.

I joined Surveynetwork, late Dec 2010. I think they may have reviewed their practice, because I read a few negative posts from a few years back. They advise deleting browser history before taking surveys. The more technical stuff, I dont understand!
I get a payout of around £20 (their lowest limit for payment), every 5 weeks or so. Its a matter of doing all the surveys - ten a day - and as soon as possible.
Its frustrating when I cannot get started and all 10 reject me but if I start all of them, I complete some and make enough money for it to be worth my while as an extra bit of cash.
They seem to link to several different Survey companies, such as Tolena and I find it convenient to do all the surveys through this one network, rather than belonging to many different companies. The payout limit of £20 is reasonable. I have been forever racking up the first payout amount on two other companies - £30 and £50.
Something else I once complained to customer services about was answering rather a lot of questions (not just the initial screening) and then being told I was not suitable. Customer services stated that this is what that particular company required. After a while I got to know the companies that did this and deleted the survey without starting. I am happy with Surveynetwork and the frequency of successful completion is increasing. Most of the surveys are boring and about the same subject. Some are quite interesting. I do it for the money. Time taken varies; most fairly quick and I am a fast typist. Per survey payment, 50 - 80p - very few £2 ones. Have yet to do an hourly rate analysis but might out of interest.

I have been member of surveynetwork.co.uk for 3 months now and have earned £140. Its legit. You qualify for most surveys and the payment immediate, very next day with 24 hours.

I've been a member for 7-8 months, I earned £10 so far, I do not get surveys every day. I get " Unfortunately..." or " not qualified..." most of the times .

I get invites to survey network everyday and manage to do some of them but dont get paid.I have contacted the company and all sorts of resons for this have been given but the main one seems to be (and this is where i smell a rat) is that they have not been paid so they cannot pay. As this has happened on a number of occasions it would appear the site is a con. I have also experienced many of the problems that others have mentioned so my advice is it is a scam site/forget it

I am a member of survey network, have reached the threshold twice now. The only down side is that sometimes when you complete a survey, you don't get paid. Probably would have reached the threshold 3 times by now if I had been credited for every survey I did.

cashed out last week there ok and payout very quickly

I see this is an old thread but for those still interested I have found them to be a good site. Earning money is slow as it is with most sites of this nature. I agree with the fact that getting screened out after a good time spent answering questions is annoying but for me this doesn't happen too often. They link to several sites such as Toluna and after a while you get used to the surveys which will complete and those that won't and you can avoid them accordingly. Surveynetwork seems to host these surveys for other companies and presumably they get more than they pay out which only makes sense. I have had to ask a fair few questions of them since signing up and their replies are always fair and genuine. The main trap not to fall into is this......when you complete a survey it will often congratulate you on completing it and then offer you another one. Don't take the bait! I questioned them about this and was informed that they do not get paid for surveys taken from the same company on the same day and therefore cannot pay you. And another word of advice, always take a screenshot of the completed survey screen as should the payment not arrive you will need to send them this to claim and they will pay out. Just claimed my £20 this morning and it arrived in my paypal account this evening even though it's not always quite that fast. I would say give this site a go using the hints and tips I've given you but don't expect to get rich quickly, (or ever), from using survey sites. They are handy for a bit of extra spending money though.

Hi, I haven't heard of them but have been on their website and read the comments above and overall i think they seem legit!

From my experience I would definitely recommend the following surveys websites:

https://www.panelopinion.co.uk - this is my favourite survey website, it is simple but effective and I have won a lot of CASH on here...You can withdraw your money when you get to £10 and it doesn't take that long to build up a good amount.

https://www.valuedopinions.co.uk - this website is good because they frequently have new surveys, which means you can qualify for them more often.

http://labs.yougov.co.uk/ - Fun and interesting surveys, quite frequent as well

https://www.surveyfriends.co.uk - this website rewards you with vouchers and prizes, which seem VERY easy to win lol. During 2012 I have already won a £50 amazon voucher and a £10 ticketmaster voucher and my friend won a 40" HD TV just before xmas. I am recommending this website based on our recent and previous success

(also recommend IPOS and Lightspeed)

I have joined numerous other survey sites but have had the most success with the ones above, especially panelopinion!

Remember: Never pay to join any survey site - its often a scam

Hope this has been of some help, Good Luck
