Morning everyone, had a bit of bad luck yesterday, had letter from the Royal Mail surveys I do saying it had come to their attention that Royal Mail had found out I was on their team and have had to sack me. Didnt get a lot out of it but the stamps were handy and used to get a voucher every now and then. Sent me a £5 voucher to pay me off and asked if I would keep doing it until it wore down, I thought well up yours lol and have put everything in one of their envelopes and will post it back anything else that comes will go in the bin. Cant be bothered with it.

Awww, this happened to me too and I was gutted that my supply of stamps had been cut off. It was a great wee earner while it was going

Welcome newbies to the thread, hope you are settling in well

FINALLY got to order my YG £50 cheque yesterday, am over the moon :j

I have just got my voucher from WB. I am going to use my amazon vouchers to buy OH a kindle for his birthday.
I am after a bit of advice. Elysia (and anyone else who has a kindle!) is it worth paying more to get the 3g kindle or is the normal one enough. I have an opinion but wanted to see what people who have one think!

sorry Susan - I was too busy saying hello to HMO and didn't answer your question.

THe image was a stamp (Magnolia Tilda) but I cheat and buy a pack of pre-stamped images off ebay - that way I can scan the image like you do, and can print loads of copies later. I'll have a look at your card in a minute.

Hmo - No you won't get millions honestly. Some sites are really slow, and others are more regular. If you can, sign up to vivatic as they have surveys regularly - make sure you tick the box that says you want emails - as whenever you get that, there are some waiting for you. Payment is £10 by paypal and if you log in regularly you could do that in a week.

Onepoll is a good one, I'm pleased you signed up - really short surveys for 10p - 25p but you can get ten a day easily. The surveys might only be available for an hour or two, so if you can log in several times a day it's better. They don't email you very often, so you have to keep checking.

You won't be bombarded, honestly, and if you find you don't have time to complete the surveys in your inbox, come back to them later, they might be still available.

The one thing to remember is every penny counts, so however small the reward may be, they all mount up in the end. It'll all be extra money for a new sewing machine, materials, or even Christmas presents.

Knit - well done on all your hard work hun. I knew you could do it. I expect the next batch will be published Monday.or Tuesday, and then we'll be waiting for a nice big paypal payment.

Emmi - well done on all your hard work too hun. What a result! I'm glad your OH will get what he wanted - it makes all the hard work worthwhile doesn't it?

ok so ive registered with vivatic but not been able to take a survey.

so thats 5 sites ive registered with now, so do i to keep going to each site several times a day or they email me?

Bunbun - the only advantage that the 3G one has, is that you can download a book anywhere you like.


If you have wireless internet at home, go for the basic one - If he's forgot to download a book before he left home, he can pop to a cafe to do it on their wifi.

If you don't have wireless at home and are hooked up to the internet with wires, he will need the 3G version.

I love, love, love my kindle. I don't know what I did without it.

OnePoll and survey Network (if you've registered to that one) you need to check every now and again, if you're available during the day. The others will email you.

Usually if there are some surveys available on the sites, someone will give a shout, and we all head over there.

Well done on joining them. It's a bit of hassle at first, but you'll be getting the surveys through shortly. It's always quiet over the weekend.


Have a nice evening Rufus - put your feet up.

Legend - Well done on paying the gas bill. You've done brilliantly getting that sorted so fast.
