    Hi everyone, is there maintenance on tolun@ because everything is taking AGES!!!! Am currently on 47,449 with at least 2 surveys waiting to close, so not too far off. I have a also added up my used printer cartridges and they come to £22.85 i will go take my mums as well which will be another £5, Its real cheeky but i work somewhere that sells a few cartridges so when customers come in for new ones i ask if they want their old ones recycled and they always give them to me & i sell them to the r. factory, they would just chuck them in the bin anyway figure im doing myself and the environment a favor......i am really i am

    Where do you sell your printer cartridges? I've found a few old ones.

    Don't worry Zangles we all have days like that, I often start doing my surveys but CBA to finish. I have managed to do loads of surveys tonight, qualified for loads for a change. Loving survey n*tw*rk I seem to qualify for nearly all of them!!

    Hope you feel better soon kec09, take care and rest as much as you can



    Aspella thanks for the heads up about maximiles, I had never done the videos before so have been through those this evening and added a few points, they are very slow to build up though aren't they? What do you so for points on there? I do the polls and clickthroughs on emails, I never seem to qualify for the surveys



    Hope everyone is ok, no Bin port for me for a few days as I redeemed and need to build up my points


    Stressed xxxx

    Have you filled in the my profile section under my account tab - 8 sections for 5 points each. It did use to be hard to build up points however since December it has been really easy (I liked the points for all emails even surveys promotion). I've already got 170 points for Feb and it is only day 2. Most of my points come from the surveys, I use to do the surveys late evening and was screened out, I've started doing them at lunch time, think it is limited i.e. first come first served. I check the site on a daily basis as the videos/polls come and go. All my points come from email clickthroughs, ipolls, videos, surveys, doing the Easter promotions (get clues and you have to click through to a retailer) and filling in my profile. I've never done any of the gambling, free offers, purchases or referred anyone.

    Tranmererovers and Zangels well done on your last minute redeems on BP tonight.
    Kec - Sorry to hear your feeling worse today, hope your feeling better tomorrow.
  • bloody ell, i'm away for a few days and there's a billion pages to read lol, finally caught up, but hey far too many to comment on, big hugs for those who are poorly and lots of love to everyone.

    well i still havent looked at my emails yet so all those surveys are still waiting lol about 140 emails i think lol joined lots of sites and not getting very far, didnt do the ebay challenge as i'm not too confident in selling yet, will try it one day. the only thing i have made this year is £5 amazon voucher from bp, thats my total i'm afraid.

    I have just had a awful message on dooyoo from member that revenge rating is not aloud on the site and they have reported me to dooyoo team so they can decide what to do with me!!!!!
    They rated my review so i returned the favour and rated theirs. I rated one useful and the other fairly useful , this was my honest opinion. It just happened that this is also how they rated mine. This was purely coincidence.
    I have replied to them with this messag as i was so shockrd and upset that somone would be so awful especially to a new member,

    I am very sorry that you feel this way. I actualy just rated them on how useful I found them to me personally. i thought I was helping you out by giving you oints for you reviews. As a ne member to dooyoo I am yet to learn the ins and outs of this site and your message has upset me and I find it bullying behavour. I will not lie when i rate somones review just to stop them from bullying so from now on I will steer well clear of yours. I will not report you as I feel this would bring me down to your level. if dooyoo contact me I will make clear my feelings of bullying and the policies they have around this. Yours sincerely Zara

    What do you think?
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:

    Oh my God Zangels! I cannot believe that! Well done in your response though you kept calm and to the point! Very well handled! I would have been upset too hun! Dont let it get to you though some people are just horrible!

    I have to admit although I joined DooYoo on the weekend I haven't really looked at as I dont fancy it much but will have a proper look when I find the time and will give it a go! If no likey then no lighty! I will then do Ebay challenge or something to make money!
