    Does everyone use Panelbase survey on here? I've been on it for a while but I'm not really getting anywhere? Thanks

    The ebayer that hadn't paid me is now no longer a registered user, what annoying time wasting people :mad:
    Sorry your having such a hard time Kec09. I don't know if you had more than 1 bid or if it was a BIN but have you tried doing a second chance offer.

    Getting a bit fed up, but feel bad moaning when I read what others are going through. So I'm going to be a little negative to get it off my chest but finish on a positive note.

    2Luna - Still not received any points for my 80 word opinions, fingers crossed they do them all at the end or start of the month. On the plus side I did redeem for a Love2Shop voucher last week.

    Maximiles - Have changed the number of points needed to redeem for M&S vouchers think it use to be 3700 points for £15 voucher now it is 4450 points. However I have received over 950 points so far this month and I have got enough points for a £10 voucher.

    BP - Not got enough points to play the next few days trying to keep hold of my points so I can redeem on Wednesday. Keep popping on to do my posts and see what chat games are being played. Playing on Woohoo bingo to stop me playing on BP and I'm nearly half way towards another Amazon voucher.

    Ebay - Nowhere near £50 profit for the challenge but I have sold another item for over £20.

    Cashback sites - Requested £24.84 from Topcashback and received £14.15 from Fatcheese. Won £3 on Loyaltyshopper's football and word games competitions. Really happy about this as I know nothing about football and just pick 1-1 every week for every match.

    I've won quite a few competitions this month - hamper (not received yet), book (not received yet), mascara, trivial pursuit game and tumblers (think I'll add these 2 to a game hamper).

    Looking forward to the 1st Feb and the start of a new challenge Elysia to help boost my motivation.:)

    Dee - you don't get a lot of surveys with Panelbase. Saying that - I did sign DD up to the kids version today - let's see if she does any better :)

    Kec - So sorry hun! You just have to keep being supportive, I know it's hard when you've got problems of your own. We're here for you, whenever you want a virtual shoulder to cry on. Anytime - don't forget. Sometimes it helps to tell strangers.

    Ddraig - well done hun on your redeems. That's wonderful news. Whoop whoop.

    Twinkle - How's things with you hun?

    Savvy - well done. I know it's hard to part with the little ones clothes (I still have some of DD1's and she's 19) but your doing the right thing. Well done on your ebay listings too - I did manage to take the photo's but haven't as yet placed the listings.

    I don't think I'll be on BP for a couple of days either you'll be glad to hear ;) - I've redeemed this week, so if I play i'll be wasting points, (unless I win). Behave yourselves :D

    It's lovely to see you posting Aspella - please join in more often if you can :) and you can moan on here all you like :)

    Your totals are brilliant. I have only 950 points on maximiles in total so I've got no chance of getting a voucher now. :(

    Don't beat yourself up about ebay - It's just something to aim for. If I'd have said £20, I bet most of us would have done £20 worth and stopped, this adds a bit of competition to it ;)

    Come on then? What's this woowoo bingo? and why do you get paid? Is it like BPort? Sorry for a lot of questions.

    ETA: I found it! Do you get anything for referalls Aspella? Could you please refer me if you do?

    Woohoo bingo - It's alot more time consuming than Bingoport as you have to keep purchasing tickets (I usually play while doing surveys or if I can't sleep). You get 1000 points everyday to play with. You can increase this by doing challenges. You play with points and win stars/points. You need 200 gold stars for an Amazon voucher. You can win 100 gold stars at 7pm and 150 gold stars at 9pm (not won this yet). Roomies donate chat game wins to anyone who is running low on points. You get 100 points for referrals but I've got over 3000 points at the moment.

    Thanks everyone for your support, I don't have anyone else to talk to so really really do appreciate it.

    Twinklecat I am in Surrey, if you are nearby let me know!

    Things are looking up I just had a 25p survey on 1poll lol! I have nearly 70,000 on T now as well so that voucher is in reach at least, will go and see if they have any surveys for me today.

    Thanks again to all, you are so kind on this thread xx

    Referrals - I will join if you need a referral PM me and I will send my email.

    Freecycle - Wedding dress gone. :)

    TREAT - I have got a wee night booked for Friday, nice hotel with the girls.

    EBAY - Waiting on payment for ice skates, and the girl has 0, so not looking hopeful for that payment.

    I will finish wrapping them all up tomorrow and post on my lunch break. Lucky to be working from home so that should make it easier. I hope the ice skate woman pays so I dont have two trips.

    BP - I won tonight, so getting closer to a redeem

    Kec - hugs to you. I have been through that, and a lot of other stuff that was the end of me and OH, so I have a good perspective and an outside view, so if you need to offload, then just pm me. Sometimes it just good to talk. :)

    Legend - WD on BP tonight!
