  • Happy new year everyone :)

    Stepmum I'm so sorry to hear about your cousin, there are some horrible people in the world. Love and best wishes to you and your family and I hope he makes a speedy recovery.

    I think I may have indulged FAR too much last night and I'm still feeling the effects now. Played bingo and had another win but not sure if I can face the mountain of surveys in my inbox today!

    My current points:

    MySurvey 410 pts
    IPSOS 930 pts
    OnePoll £10.80
    GTM 710 pts
    Valued Opinions £2.20, £3 pending
    BingoPort 8467
    Shop&Scan 2000 pts (waiting on £10 voucher)
    Toluna 10599pts (waiting on £15)
    SurveyNetwork £2
    Global Opinion Panels 5531 pts
    Dribbling my way to £11k... so far £653.69/£11000

    Well done everyone – you all sound so motivated at the moment – long may it continue!


    Savvy – just do a bit at a time for ebay – it’s ok. It’s not a race, it’s a challenge.

    Nicky and Pammy – brilliant idea about doing the writing for Toluna in Word. I do that for on here, but never thought of it for toluna.

    Stepmum – Toluna is boring at times but the points mount up quickly if you are prepared to put in the effort.

    Rufus – so sorry to hear you’ve had problems with some of the surveys. I think I’ll stick at it for the time being, but I’ve signed up to so many survey sites this week, I don’t know whether I’m coming or going.

    Mum2one – well done on getting some listings started. You’re right, 99p is better than the nothing you would get if you binned them. That’s what I used to do, but not now. ;)

    Well done Rufus on your 2 pound coins – I’ve only had one :(

    Pinkfluffybabe – woohoo 3000 points is a great headstart

    Welcome Muffin – I hope you are Ok. This money making business is addictive.

    Legend – so sorry to hear about the car tax – grrrr. There’s always something.

    Kirsty – don’t worry about posting those instructions. We are all here to help each other ;) What a shame about your car too.

    Mswan – woohoo a £10 cash in. Did you put it on your spreadsheet yet?

    Hiya – saver Natalie. *waves*

    Susan – what are/were you going to do with that giraffe?

    Zangles and savvy – did you get your referrals? With Opinion People – you have to have a special invite – which you can get via Survey Network. I’ve still not had a survey from OP and been with them three weeks now, but I’m hoping things get better now Christmas and New Year is (almost) out of the way.

    Well done Diddly – keep us updated how they are doing. I love it when you get watchers and bids for things.

    Savvy – I hope you find the shop and scan email. I wouldn’t mind joining that one.

    Well done Mama-G on getting the bank account sorted. I did one too – My emergency fund. OH pays all the bills, and has a ‘little’ emergency fund. But I don’t think the car will last too long, so I’m hoping to put a bit away here and there for that too.

    Hiya Lady four – How is your money making going. Keep us informed if you have any probs let us know – we are here to help each other. :)


    Phew - long post. Sorry I bored you to death but I had so much to say. It's brilliant having this thread up and running again. If only I could keep up. :rotfl:
    No not had a what ever i need for survey network, im getting confused with them all. I hav joined 3 survey sites so far toluna, one poll and valued opinions but get hardly any surveys and the ones i do get i get thrown off. thats why im looking for ohters to do.
    On the plus side i have listed some bits on ebay tonight and i will do some more on a 3 day listing to end next sunday.
    I have my 10000 points on bingo port but thought it was only wednesday i could exchange?
    I am goin to hunt ou more stuff to ebay through tis mont and de clutter.:T
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:

    I really dont get survey network though because I click on the surveys and then either not suitable or get sent to a different survey site and end up joining that 2! Last night I clicked through to a site called reward tv or something?
    Legendmum its always worth looking on cashback sites before signing up to a new survey site. RewardTV you could have received £1.70 from Quidco or £1.20 from Getpoundsback.

    Ddraig - Thanks for the tip re: junk folder and SurveyNetwork. Don't think Glitterball has sent me a link yet. She hasn't signed on to MSE today so I'll give her until tomorrow evening.

    Stepmum - Glad your cousin is okay, he was very brave.

    Zangels - Cut off time for claiming vouchers on Bingoport is 10pm on a Wednesday to make sure you receive a voucher on Thursday, but you can claim anytime.

    Happy new year everyone. Today I've put a DVD up for auction on Ebay (get charged 10p). Listed the same DVD on Vivastreet via Getpoundsback (get paid 40p). Even if the item fails to sell I've made 30p virtual money. Set up a Poll on Toluna and I'm just about to go and finish posting on Bingoport forum.
  • Hi everyone!

    Thought i would introduce myself, i am new to all this- well apart from dooyoo. Which i nearly have £20 worth of points.

    Hoping to follow this thread and pick up some great tips, i have joined about six money making websites, aswell as quidco for cashback. can anyone advise me on anything else i may be missing? I do have time to put in to make this worth my while.

    many thanks x

    :T

    I think you can redeem whenever you like but they only process them on a Thursday. So you have to redeem by the Wednesday to get the payment that week. I think.

    ETA - oh, I really should read all the posts before I reply. At least what I said turned out to be correct :o

    A code is sent to the email address you registered with on Bingoport. You can add it to Amazon gift certificate balance straight away or wait until you want to purchase an item as you usually have a year before the code expires.

    So it can stay in the amazon gift certificate bit and i can add more to it through the year and keep them till xmas or once they are on the amazon gift certificate do you need to spend within so long?
    Think i will redeem them on sunday so am starting a new week and can see how the points are adding up.
    Need to join Amazon now.

    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:
