    I've also stopped doing the Ciao surveys - they really do take the p*ss.

    What amazes me is that any companies are still using them to do market research. After all what kind of sample population are they getting - those who are so desparate for 10p or those who are too stupid to realise :confused:

    I thought it was just me with their bloomin' surveys - now they won't even let me gain access to my account to see what I haven't earned - apparently my password is wrong (can't be I use it for everything else).

    I hate the brandindex surveys on YouGov because they take ages to load and sometimes boot you out half way through:mad:

    I do JustRewards surveys, ShopperThoughts (Tesco), Lightspeed occasionally and Synovate. JustRewards sometimes pay £1.10 woo hoo, ShopperThoughts you usually get 150 clubcard points.:D

    At least they're starting to get more accurate about the amount of money you can actually expect from starting the surveys. ;)

  • I see the last post was in June. Am I alone then in hoping that one fine day I wont get screened out. I am mad today as I have just spent 15 mins doing a survery about games Wi etc then got screened out. I only had a go as it was £1. I just delete anything less than that. I am on the verge of unsubscribing. And I will not be having anything to do with Juicy Brains now that Ciao have taken them over.

    I have built up quite a bit of money, now i want to cash it in, but i notice they require your bank details, how do people feel about this, any problems and is it safe to give them your bank details!!!

    Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but all the others, Lightspeed, etc etc seem to be here.

    Hi

    I used to be with Ciao. They are fine with the bank details. I didn't use my main bank account though. When you request money, it takes up to 6 weeks, as they only process claims once a month, so it depends on if you are lucky to claim at the right time. Hope this helps.
