Survey sites to earn extra money?

Hi all,

I'm trying to earn a bit of extra cash (mainly due to tax credits ending soon...only £10 a week but it will be missed a lot thanks to ever increasing nursery fees!) and I wondered if any of you could recommend any online survey sites that pay you?

I'm sure there will already be a thread on this but can't find it!

Thanks

    Hi

    I have been participating in online surveys for a long period of time now and have found them extremely beneficial, but I think it depends which sites you join! The ones I would recommend, which I have made the most money from are:

    https://www.panelopinion.co.uk - this is my favourite survey website, it is simple but effective...You can withdraw your money when you get to £10 and it doesn't take that long to build up a good amount.

    https://www.valuedopinion.co.uk - this website is good because they frequently have new surveys, which means you can qualify for them more often.

    https://www.toluna.com - same as valuedopinion

    https://www.surveyfriends.co.uk - this website rewards you with vouchers and prizes, which seem VERY easy to win lol. During 2012 I have already won a £50 amazon voucher and a £10 ticketmaster voucher and my friend won a 40" HD TV just before xmas. I am recommending this website based on our recent and previous success

    Good Luck :):D:)
    :eek: 2014: £20 voucher from SurveyFriends, £10 cash payout from Panel Opinion too and working towards more from Valued Opinions currently.
    2013: £35 and £50 vouchers from SurveyFriends! More than £15 made from other paid surveys sites (Yougov, Panel Opinion, Valued Opinions, Pinecone, etc.) Happy so far!

    We've had tens of threads about this but as a rough guide I'd say the best are valued opinion, ipsos, and toluna. Definitely stay away from YouGov, not unless you don't mind seeing the fruit of your labour by the time your kids are old enough to leave home!
  • Hiya!
    I would highly recommend Swagbucks! I've been doing it since June and can easily get £25 in Amazon vouchers each month, and at least £10 (sometimes £20) in Paypal cash. If you would be happy using my referral link, I would be very grateful!

    The other survey sites I use are Crowdology, Pinecone and Rewarded Opinions. The first two don't offer much in the way of work, but they pay out at a very low level, so you get the money quickly, and each survey is usually worth quite a bit (comparatively!). RO send surveys all the time, but it usually takes me about 12 months to reach their minimum payout of £25. ( As a comparison, Pinecone pay £3 per survey, but they payout after each survey, rather than making you wait until you reach a threshold. However, they only seem to send me one a month - if that, so I only make a little more than RO over a 12 month period, but for far less effort).

    I also write for textbroker and Clickworker. pay is below minimum wage, but its pay and I write when I would usually be sat doing little else!

    where do you live mxpour ?
  • Hi, I'm also looking for more survey sites. At the minute I use onepoll but you do have to wait until you get to £40. I like them though because you don't need to put any bank details in you can ask them to send you a cheque (this does take a little bit longer to recieve, up to 28 days) You also get money when you refer friends and when they reach so much then you get a bonus aswell. I have just recieved another cheque which will be put away for christmas.

    cheques are best to be banked straight away
    you only get 6 months to bank them or something like that
