opinion poll surveys

i have found that many of the opinion poll survey sites actually use the same questioning body as each other.
you know the ones, after clicking the link and typing in your age, gender it moves to "loading" and then confronted with another age gender first page of questioning.
i have noticed how on a few of them once you start getting to a certain cash threshold the amount of surveys they make available to you slows down.
i know some people think that it is just the companies running low on valid polls but i had set up 3 different accounts with same company with same criteria. and where one account starts accumilating funds the others seem to be given more surveys.
i feel these companies are trying to cut down on payouts by checking their databases of the people in the poll and giving preferencial treatment to the £0-£10 fund people as they dont want to be paying out £20 minimum payout every month. they want to spread it out over several months.
i think that these poll sites should all link together under one massive database of people wanting to give opinions instead of spreading it out diluting the potential earnings into several money pots.
i have £90 in 10 pots.. and when i start a new account for testing purposes the new accounts get new surveys i have never seen before but the older accounts dont..
it works out as a 1 in 8 chance the account with £15 would actually get a poll compared to a account with £1 in it.
yet the criteria match perfectly (i assure you as thats the whole point of me setting up new account to test).
anyone spent all day non stop doing surveys and managed to make £20 in under a week. if so what is this lovely opinion poll/survey sites name.

I think you have joined the wrong sites, there are some who pay out at £10, others pay out at £4 or even £3.0
