itsyourview surveys... i'm annoyed
Comments

I'm having the same problem - have they been credit crunched?0

I've just logged in with no problems. I received a £50 payment from them a couple of weeks ago. Last night I completed a survey worth £6 - although I don't receive many It'sYourView surveys, I don't think they're experiencing any problems.
Good luck0 -
I've also had a £50 payout this month & have a further £10 on account. You do have to be careful with this company as I understand they check your speed in completing & whether your answers are logical. Also your account is not updated until after the survey is complete.
But today I did a survey for them which only paid £1 although it must have taken me about 10 minutes to complete. I wonder if their payments are bing reduced. Anyone else experienced this?0 -
I've had no surveys recently.0

I have been receiving surveys by email for ages from these people and this time i've had it!
I just started doing a survey - I must have answered 20 Qs, Asking personal details and I'm SURE they got the relevant information for their market research. I spent about 15 mins giving them all this info... under the impression i'd be getting this £5 (not that I have ever been paid from them before!), only to be told, we have enough people with your profile GRRRRRRRRRRRRR wouldn't they already know this if they had bothered looking at my profile before sending the thing OR actually looking at the first few questions i had answered instead of leading me all the way through the survey!!!!!
Here's what i've emailed them anyway:
I am getting aggrivated that I keep spending up to 15 mins of my time answering your questions in your surveys giving out what I believe to be valuable information for market researchers, only to be told I am not suitable and subsiquently, I don't get payment that is promised for completing the surveys (even though I had already answered many questions for you anyway).
Why could you not see that I was not suitable from my profile that I have already provided when I signed up.
I find it highly dubious that after I answer about 10-20 questions about which brand names I am aware of etc etc etc and suddenly I am not suitable! Surely I would have been unsuitable after the first few questions, such as, what products do I already buy, asking for my postcode and age.
I am beginning to think you are scamming me. You are getting the information you need, but not paying out for it. I have spoken to many other members of itsyourview who are beginning to believe the same, since they have never successfully completed a survey (even after giving out a LOT of details, including personal details)
I am tempted to get legal advice on this issue.

Has anybody actually got paid anything from these surveys? I believe it must be a minimal selection of people since they are getting away with asking so many questions without paying the majority.
RANT over! I'd just be interested to find out if it is just me, and i'm just really unlucky and never get selected!

For years, many work-at-home moms and dads have been using paid survey programs to make a decent living on the Internet. "Paid Surveys" basically mean you take a short marketing survey, and once your answers are approved you get paid by the publisher.
It's one of the easiest ways to make money online, but the most important thing is to find out which paid survey programs you should spend time with, and which ones to avoid. On this page we have reviewed the Top 5 Paid Survey Programs that are proven to work.

Sorry if this sounds harsh, but does giving all your personal details away to a marketing company, in return for an elusive small cash amount, seem sensible?
In my opinion, those of us who are hard-up should not have to prostitute our privacy in this way in an attempt to make a few quid.
Personally I steer well clear of this sort of nonsense.My Debt Free Diary I owe:
