    Im having probs with OnePoll but I think I will redeem this month. The pages keep timing out!

    They do that to me too. I had a 40p survey yesterday which took me about 45 minutes to do in the end :mad:

    I've got to £40 on Onepoll :j. It's all claimed and going through to my bank account within 28 days. Bit sad to see my balance back down to 5p, but in a couple of months, I will get it back up to £40 again :)

    I'm trying to crack on with the questions today as we are off out tonight. Up to 30 so far. I've also got another online MS for £4, so up to £12 with those.

    I need to start making more headway on getting money to pay off my mum. I am up to £71 now (including Onepoll), so every day next week (Mon-Fri), I'm going to do something to contribute to the fund. My list so far is:
    • £1 a day on Onepoll (getting me to £5 by Friday)
    • Earning something on Quidco (even if it's just a few pence)
    • Accepting 1 mystery shop a day (hopefully earning me in the region of £30
    • Completing my 4 online MS assignments (giving me £16)
    • Find 5 items to list on eBay

    Back to the questions

    Well done you, have to say that onepoll is testing my patience but I will keep persisting. Here is a stupid question but what is an online MS?

    Not a stupid question at all - there's a mystery shopping company who just do online mystery shopping. It's basically assessing a website and saying what you think of it. Like a really long survey.

    OH has just informed me that tonight is cancelled. So I have taken a break from the questions. Only 43 left to do. I don't mind doing them in the evening when OH is home as he hogs the TV anyway. It's busier then too.

    I have also been accepted for a couple of mystery shops for next week. One doesn't have a fee, but I can get reimbursed on £10 worth of shopping :j, and the other is just a phone call MS which is worth £6 :D.

    Hi everyone

    Quick update from me today. I spent most of the evening trying to get my DMP sorted out. I've finally got everything up together and am ready for it to go off tomorrow.

    I'm up to £15.30 tracking on Quidco thanks to my mum ordering some stuff from BHS. I've also got £38 worth of MS jobs lined up (including online MS).

    Night night.

    Hi Emz, glad to see you're sorting a DMP, will be much better than getting hassled all the time.

    Which company do you do online MS with if you don't mind me asking? :)

    Morning :)

    Have decided to have a weekly to-do list. So this list runs until the end of Sunday and a new one will start Monday morning.

    So this weeks to-do list is:
    • Get to 1,500 questions
    • Complete my online mystery shops (5 now)
    • Have £100 worth of mystery shopping either lined up or completed
    • Find and join another 5 mystery shopping sites.
    • Be tracking at least £20 on Quidco
    • Download list of songs for niece's birthday party

    I'm not going to list stuff on eBay now as I really don't have much worth selling. Also, I'm not going to count on the surveys as guaranteed income as they are so unpredictable. If I get payouts on them, great. If not then never mind. I'm up to £42 worth of mystery shopping already.

    Emz xx
