    I have been with them for over a year now and quite like them, I usually get at least one invitation a day. If you like valued opinions you will like e-rewards. ( I think they are both owned by the same company). You can cash out at minimum 1000 nectar points (£5) or build it up to 5000 points and they give you £27.50 so it's worth waiting to cash out.

    Many thanks for taking the trouble to reply - I don't do Valued opinions, so can't compare with that, but can I ask roughly how many points you get per survey ?

    TIA

    Dependent on the length but normally 100-300 points per survey. Surveys range anywhere from 5 - 30 mins. It has taken me two months to get to 5000 points to cashout (£27.50).

    Thanks - I'll give it a go :)

    Is anyone here a member of the survey site PureProfile? Have you ever reached the payout?

    I've just read that the minimum balance required to cash out is £50. I've only earned less than £3 with them after a few months. So at that rate it would take about 5 years to reach the minimum payout.

    I've been a member of Pureprofile for a few years and have been paid a few times. However, when I've been paid previously, the payout level was £25.00.

    If you don't already, check for available surveys direct on the website regularly as there tends to be extra surveys in addition to those they send emails for.

    Im trying to get to grips with survey sites(again as I stopped for a yeaar or so) but may have to drop a few.

    Genuine thoughts on Globaltestmarket and Mysurvey(are they run by the same people?) seem to take up LOTS of my time but I never get anywhere with the first Two. Are they worth persevering with?

    Have to say that's my experience with My Survey as well - you can easily spend 20 mins answering the first 5-10 questions on multiple surveys without actually qualifying for any of them :mad:

    On the plus side if you do manage to qualify for a few surveys, you can cash out at a lower amount than many.
  • Great Resource.
    Thanks for sharing. This is really helpful.

    They are part of the same group, I dropped mysurvey recently as I used to get too many errors when submitting surveys, plus their customer service is pretty rubbish. I persevere with GTM as I cash out once a month with them and they seem to have less errors than Mysurvey but I still think there are much better sites out there.
