Vivatic - Any Good?

I've reported this one as well. They're paying little enough as it is for a lengthy survey.

I also completed this yesterday morning and had the same comments. Have lodged a query with the site. Its annoying when you have completed the survey,25mins wasted

I did the Juice survey too and that happened to me aswell. Complaining to them too! Not on.

Do they e-mail you surveys our do you have to keep checking the site?
Also can you only do the other jobs aside from surveys if you've completed and passed the writing test?

They do sometimes email but they're about as useful as a chocolate teapot. For example today, I had an email telling me there were 3 surveys "both" worth £1. Went to the site, nothing. About 90% of the emails I get from them are wrong. So in short, yes, check the site for surveys, don't wait for emails

As for the other jobs, yes you have to have completed the writing test before they are available. I wouldn't feel like you're missing out too much, you're asked to write the most obscure articles with sod all guidance on what to include. For example - "Box wed design" (which might I add has zero Google results) or "Pitney Bowes K700 Information, Prices & Review". And the only guidance you get: "write an informative article in response to the above title". If you're an expert in franking machines it's great (so many article jobs about them), but I've never even used one let alone be able to review a specific model

You are on their automatic email list for surveys but this doesn't mean there is a live survey available. It's like they want to remind you of their existence every once in a while.

I had the same e-mail about the surveys 'both' 3 of them were not there for me either.

Have you ever tried researching the franking machine writing jobs - what a nightmare! You can find loads of information about replacement ink for them though.

I've just completed a lengthy Web Sourcing survey only to be told at the end that the responses don't count and a number of possible reasons were given. The survey took around 20 to 25 minutes. I don't normally do these as the money isn't worth it. Has anyone else had this problem with Web Sourcing?

I did a Web Sourcing survey earlier today. I have only managed to complete about 3 of them since I joined the site about 4 months. For the money that is offered I think really they are not worth doing. I get rejected for almost all of them when I've tried in the past.

Vivatic is good way of getting surveys, but it is really unfortunate that they do not offer store vouchers or e-vouchers for the likes of Amazon.

I have just put in a request for £25, but after reading their disclaimer - as I was doing the request - that put me off from doing anymore surveys with them. That said, they are a very good site if you really do want the cash payment.

I'd take cash over vouchers any day, if you want vouchers, buy them with the cash

What disclaimer did you have a problem with?
