    Emma - not sure what you mean by that one, but I don't think it works that way. You are friends with people because you add them. I just found you as I referred Elysia and could see your name, so I clicked on your profile, but no way to add you as a friend that I could see. If anyone knows any different, I am happy to do it, but I am not sure if it is possible.

    Managed a £2 NVL survey earlier, and got about 1000 on tolly just with quickpolls. 2 first reviews have gone on c today. A small start, but I am happy at that as it is better than I was doing by a long mile.

    Good evening everyone

    Thanks for the tip elysia on putting subtitles on my reviews, i agree that it makes them look so much better. Ive made £4.01 on ciao now which isnt much but i only joined a week ago so im really happy and its all less money to find for christmas :j Can anyone tell me how much you have to make to be able to withdraw and is it via cheque? I know with dooyoo its 50,000points, Im on 6000 but again only started a week ago so suppose combined its £10, yay!

    Hopefully by tonight i will have made about £8/9 on each so a start on the £50 this month. Ive just written a review for dooyoo on how to be organised at christmas so if its ok i though if might be on here at it might have some tips that can help some people and spur you on, i will post it in a seperate post as its quite long :)

    Going to try and get a review finished before big brother starts tonight, im a reality tv addict :rotfl:

    Joe - C is just £5 paid by BACS into your bank. We all normally claim in the last day or two of the month, and then we get paid around the 15th.

    Joe - on DoU - you can also redeem at £20 if you want an Amazon voucher - just don't be tempted to spend it. Apply it to your account and you have about 18 months/ 2 years before they run out of date. ;)

    Your review is good - especially as it's written by a 20yr old lad. ;) My nephew wouldn't have written that - he just likes to be given pressies, not buy them. The only thing is - as it's not a consumer review, on Ciao if you get an E it won't count as it's called a cafe review (your opinion) and also on DoU you won't get anything for posting it, just 1p per rate. Go ahead and post it now it's written - but if you want to make money quickly - try and review things you can buy, even if it's only baked beans. ;)

    Bevally - thanks hun got it.

    Everyone new to SB - copy Bevally's code, and paste it into where it says 'gimme' just under your avatar on SB's, where it says your account summary. It's worth 4 SB's :)

    We came to that conclusion in the end!! Its just confusing cause when you go on your network it give you a search button but clearly not for that. Can't see me doing much on there as I don't have anyone else to refer and obviously the bigger your circle the better - unless anyone on here wants referring??

    Thanks for the sb code - got it!

    Emma - go put your referral codes on the referral board. You never know - you might get someone to join up.


    Is it wrong to think it is bedtime now? I feel wiped out. Not going to be having a late one tonight.

    In one of the first postes theres a site you can join - I think it's SBcodz (or something) and if you follow them on FB or Twitter they give you extra codes. I get mine texted to my phone, but it's nearly always flat. LOL.

    I just came on to say - for the first time ever in two years I've been a member, I've got points about to expire on DoU. :( so if you've not been on there for a while, I should check if you do too. I wouldn't want you to waste them.

    I redeemed for a cheque, when was that - Sept, or Oct?, so it's not been long. They used to expire after twelve months, and now, it looks like it's sooner. :( ETA: Just checked on the site and it still says 12 months - so somethings going wrong somewhere.
