I recently tried to join Populous but there was some sort of error page that came up when I tried to confirm my registration. This happened a couple of times. Tried emailing them but got no reply

I had the same problem - gave up trying eventually!

I havent been using populous for very long however I agree the times to complete are under estimated

I did a banking one the other day and it got to 75% which took me over 15 mins ( total time suggested was 15 mins ) and it then crashed and gave an error code. I screen shot this and sent it to them 3 days ago and still havent heard anything , has anyone experienced any errors doing their surveys?

Incidentally I discovered that during the pause before the checkboxes appear, you can still click on them - they are there, just invisible - and thus get through the surveys quicker. They still often take longer than the invitations suggest, though.

Yes, I had an error this week when doing a £3 survey.

At the start, it said the survey would take 10-15 minutes, but it took about 1 hour. Also, what happened was, in the survey they asked questions that were already asked earlier in the survey.

Never had a problem with them before, but 3wks ago completed a £4. survey and the points have not been added, last week a £4. survey 64% completed and ended in error. Plus my points account is showing as 3 whereas it should be 8, advise all to check their balance.

Have sent 4 e'mails now querying all the above, and no answer, has anyone ever successfully contacted them? If so how?

I did a £4 one a few about a month back (survey number p009336) that was credited to my account but the following day I happened to notice it was no longer there. I emailed them but over a week an no reply, I emailed again but a few day and still nothing. I took to twitter and do you know I the very same day I got a reply to the email! The points were put back. I haven't had any invites for a couple of weeks now, I only need 11 points for my next cheque grrr

Sounds like they're not very reliable. I'm just a bit concerned that I've now given them my name, address and date of birth..

Has anyone else had an Energy letter request from them and not been rewarded yet?

Did anyone do a survey today and get an error?

There was an error at the end of the survey. I see that the points for survey haven't been added.
