    All they will come back with "sorry the system is saying you didn't complete the survey".

    I always think that how they treat you the same way you pay them back but doing the surveys more or less accurate. That is at least my approach. For companies like Pinecone, Populuslive etc I am always taking my time and answering extra carefully.
  • Hi everyone :)

    Quick question for everyone who uses Viewsbank:

    Viewsbank recommends joining their "sister" site which is called MyPaidOpinion.

    Just wondering if anyone has joined it and can recommend? Is it worth signing up?

    I personally did not sign up because it looks like it is another company which cooperates with Cint. I am not really keen on Cint surveys, as they screen you out all the time and I am already with more companies that I have time for :)
    It looks legit, but if it is worth you can only find out if you sign up.

    Just wondered whether anyone else has had problems with Valued Opinions?

    I have had umpteen paper vouchers over 3 years without any problems, but have still had no success in getting a £15 amazon e- voucher which I ordered over 3 weeks ago, and which according to the site should have been received within 48 hours. I have emailed without any response, and also left a message on their answering machine. I have sent messages via Facebook, and got a reply saying They would email it, but still nothing!

    I feel extremely aggrieved as I have spent quite a bit of time to earn these.
    I'm in a similar situation with e-rewards.

    Done quite a lot of work for them, and they do seem to have improved from mamy years ago when I was signed up with them briefly.

    This time I've tried 3 times over a period to redeem my first voucher on their site. Even though I complete the reward request form accurately, when I log into e-rewards again on a later day nothing has happened. All my points are sitll there. My request for reward seems to go go in ok but after 3 requests entered no reward has ever been received. When I log in all my ponts are still there untouched.

    I've email them twice now two weeks ago and again one week ago. they promise to come back within 48 hours. Recently Amazon vouchers became marked as "out of stock" on the list of rewards.

    Does anyone know of any problems e-rewards may have been experiencing? I really hope Amazon hasn't pulled the plug on them due to problems with payment.....

    In my limited experience of surveys so far, apart from the experience above with e-rewards that I'm now getting quite worried about, I'd recommend Ipsos and globaltestmarket as the best out of a hard lot.

    Would really appreciate if someone could reassure me that e-rewards do pay out and are still solvent though!

    I have always requested Tesco gift card from them and then Sainsbury's gift card when they stopped doing Tesco ones. I always received them without a trouble. Perhaps worth requesting standard gift card. They do offer quite few different gift card stores.

    I don't know if i'm missing something obvious but does anyone know how to change your email address with MySurvey?

    I've looked at the FAQs which says to click the link "Please, update your profile" but I can't find that anywhere!

    Can anyone help? Thanks

    Click on My Profile

    Then enter new email address where it says

    Thanks.

    Very strange, 'Link Account' is the only link showing! But I clicked roughly where I thought the link would be and i've got the profile page now so all sorted!
  • Hi All,

    Just seen a mention of a site called "Quidco Opinions"

    Does anyone use this?

    I think you need a Quidco account to be able to sign up?
