Are these any good? I've had a couple of invitations from them, for good money, but at the rate hey send them it will take a long while to reach a payout. Especially if I get screened out of half of them!

When I log onto my Lightspeed account the flash banner says they are just changing their name to "MySurvey by Lightspeed Panel".

Newvista Live - payout at £50. Personally, it's not worth the time it takes to get up to that level and I'm sure I've read on here somewhere that people have had problems getting paid.

Do these pay well? On average how long does it take to complete a survey?

Would be nice to earn some extra cash as I'm going to be spending quite a bit of time at home over the next month or so.

Surveys can range between 2 mins to 45 mins depending on which company and what the survey is about.

Money or vouchers from surveys is more like pocket money instead of serious cash.

Of these surveys sites i use the below

Valued Opinions (great site, always getting surveys, been paid a fair amount as well)
Toluna (great site as well, now being paid every 3 weeks which is amazing)
Pureprofile (got £18 in my account, will ditch when i get to payout)
Global Test Market (used to be a great site, dont find it so good now)
Crowdology (not a bad site, dont get too many surveys, but is ok)
Lightspeed Panel (dont like this at all, used to be brilliant and for about the last year i can take part in the polls and thats it, never get any surveys from them)
Onepoll (again a good site. takes a while to get to the £40 but i like how the surveys are done and also paid very fast)

overall i have probably earnt about £200 of vouchers in just over a year, so all very greatful for

Toluna - are they paying out vouchers quicker than 8-10 weeks now ?

Which are your top rated survey websites ? Who will you be ditching this year ?

I'm streamlining my survey websites as I simply don't have the time to do them all and the ones I'm keeping are:

Yougov
mysurvey/lightspeed
valued opinions
globaltestmarket
newvista
pureprofile
Harris poll online
ipsos
onepoll

I've got rid of:

Opinium research (although I won £100 in their prize draw recently, I've only just reached £25 in surveys in 3 years - lightning doesn't strike twice so they're out)
panelbase
surveynetwork
maximiles/surveys.com

I know some of the ones I'm keeping aren't always the fastest to reach a payout, but I think they're the fairest in payments, most interesting, and with all of them going i should get a steady income stream.

Never received anything from Valued Opinions

I really like IPSOS. I had an electric thing sent at the beginning of the year to monitor what i did every 30 mins and got £20 voucher and have had another £60 over the year. I once did Valued Opinions in my first year at uni, but they took too long so i gave up. Might try some others though as its nice when the vouchers come through

Only one I have ever used is YouGov. I have been a member for 2 years and have recieved 2 £50 cheques from them and a few £5 amazon vouchers for particular surveys.

I might take a look at a few of these others thanks.
