Hi,
Signed up to Viva now as well. Should the amounts be added straightaway? I did a Newvista type through them which was added. But did one called Web Sourcing 2011 which should pay 85p. Its the same type as one of the 75p ones from SN. But not added yet. Anyone doing these "Jobs" the site mentions?
I forgot to ask but when you get the payment from onepoll do they tell you when its paid or does it just appear in your account?

Fly - you get an email to say it's been paid off Onepoll.
On Viva - If you refresh your page at the end, your amount to be paid will change.
I just took the writing test so I can do other jobs. I had to write an article for a beauty magazine about
Botulinum toxin (Botox). It's been added to their database, presumably to be checked, and hopefully will be ok. It's worth a try at least. Go for it!!!I :heartpuls M.S.E.Mortgage Free 18/01/10 13 years and 8 months early on a 20 year mortgage!

Hi everybody, not really had much motivation today, done 3 surveys on viva would have been 4 but was screened out on the last one after answering all the questions, probably the same that had happened to you flycatchers. Also you wont have access to the writing jobs unless they need more writers, which they don't seem to at the moment.
Won last nights auction on surveyfriends but haven't received an email so I can't claim, really annoyed about that and they ignored the message I sent via the contact page
Well done on carrying on with dooyous Rufus, I really can't get my brain into gear with reviewing at the moment, hope you get to cashout soon.
Completely agree with Elysia, not just about being bored lol, but keep going with the viva if you can, this morning I could only do one but this afternoon I managed three, albeit one took all my answers then screened me out when I finished grrr.Comping wishlist for 2017

Elysia, where is the writing test, I have been looking for it for a while and cannot find it anywhere? I assumed they weren't looking for people now?Comping wishlist for 2017

I didn't receive an email when I won on Surveyfriends, it took them a few days to reply to my message via the contact page so don't give up hope just yet. It did take a while but I did get my voucher.
Can't find the writing test on Viva either.0 -
Hi all, sorry I haven't been around again, I've not been doing too well. Having lots more headaches and migraines, not sleeping, feel exhausted and basically had enough. Went to docs yesterday and they have given me anti-d's to take, starting with a small dose and building up I took it last night and felt awful today, I have been like a zombie and felt really strange
I haven't done any surveys or anything, only sold 2 items on ebay last week when I finished them on a Thursday although the plus side was they both paid straight away.
Totally broke again so really need to focus on money making once I have sorted myself with the meds, had to get some work done on the car last week and with all the bills for the new year everything has gone up so just staying afloat the mo. I was hoping the new tax code would ease things a bit but with NI going up we are only about £2 better off a week.
Anyway sorry I haven't read through all the posts but hope everyone is ok, good luck with the move esmer and I hope to be back properly soon xxAiming to completely pay off the credit card in 2012!0 -

Hiya Gail - you are most welome to join in. All the info to get started is in the first few posts. After that, if you need any help just shout. There's always someone around to help if they can. We are a friendly bunch, so don't be worried.
Take your time, don't hurry. Sign up to a few survey sites, and get the hang of things - you'll be soon be money making.
The sister thread (thrifty gifty organised one) will help you too, especially with two little ones (nearer to Christmas). Mum2one will have you all bought and wrapped well before the big day.I didn't receive an email when I won on Surveyfriends, it took them a few days to reply to my message via the contact page so don't give up hope just yet.

Oh, I don't think I'm on surveyfriends but it does sound familiar - I'll have to check it out.
Re the tests on Viva - I clicked on home by accident earlier, and it said that there were 19 jobs available. I clicked on that and it said to take a test I had to write an article on Botox which was 100 - 150 words long and was to appear in a beauty magazine.
Of course I checked out google, to get some background info and as it was so short, I wrote it in 10 mins. I did see that most of the articles had to be 400 words long, but as I sometimes write three times longer than that for DoU, that should be no problem.
Also, when I redeemed earlier, there are some profiling questions to fill in - I never noticed before - I you fill those in, that should stop you being screened out so much.I :heartpuls M.S.E.Mortgage Free 18/01/10 13 years and 8 months early on a 20 year mortgage!

Morning everyone, so which one of you have stolen the sun today then?
Kec, I was put on anti-ds two weeks ago and they made me feel as rough as anything for about 4 days. For me, I take them just as I go to bed as they help me sleep a little and that way I don't feel sick. I don't feel any different but I'm not sure how I'm supposed to feel :S Having a break with my family, although stressful, really helped me by 'getting away from it' and everything seems a lot better now. I'm still waiting for my appt to come through but with the NHS that could be another couple of months away (perhaps the NHS are being run by t0lun@ now?! :rotfl:)
I've done a few surveys through viva and I'm still on £1, just refreshed the page and now the site is offline!
I also downloaded the Tolna app for my iphone and completed about 100 sponsored polls the other night (took about 20 mins). You can also comment on opinions on there which will be good as I'll be able to do them whilst on the move over the next few weeks.
Did I tell you all I'm off to Hong Kong on the 3rd? Soooo excited about that, yet very nervous as I've never been that far away on my own before!! Also got two weeks off work as of Monday so won't be at work for a month which is a lovely feeling.:j
Ohhh also forgot to tell you that I am attempting to grow something. I bought two tomato plants and 6 strawberry plants (I know not very MSE as they are not from seed, but that is something I aspire to do next year - I am taking baby steps!!). Day three of being under my care and they are still alive!!
Hope everyone is OK. Hello Gail, welcome alongDribbling my way to £11k... so far £653.69/£11000
