    Not in the top 25 maybe because the reward for time spent is so low but wouldn't make it anyway if you have to lie about your location.

    "Sadly however, it doesn’t pay anywhere near as well as similar paid survey websites available on mobile"
  • Still no surveys coming in from YouGov.  However, i eventually got a reply saying they will look into it !
  • Is this article of the top 25 up to date? What would people list as their top 5 these days?

    What makes a top site depends how little your time is worth - Swagbucks surveys for instance can payless than £1/hour, can be quite plentiful but there are other ways to earn with them - Y-live, was Populus Live, pays £1 per 5 mins but fewer surveys than Swagbucks, Consumer Pulse purchase recording can be worth £150+ per year at a good hourly rate and Pinecone is worth £3 per survey plus another £3 if it leads to a product test


    Survey Police have lists (prime opinion has an appalling hourly rate)

    EDIT at the moment I have 6 surveys on Swagbucks offering a rate of less 30p an hour including one of 24 mins for 4p!

    Thanks. Yeah I'm not doing any surveys for less than £5 an hour so this is appreciated.
  • Hello I´m looking forward to starting the Surveys
  • After spending several months filling in surveys for half a dozen companies, I decided not to bother with most of them, as some often screen out after spending 10 minutes or so with nothing but a draw entry as reward. Toluna was easily the worst and with such a big company the odds of winning must be huge. To add insult to injury, they take months to send the vouchers.
    I have found Ipsos and e-rewards the best, particularly e-rewards who pay even if you screen out and where I have earnt over 10,000 avios points in a year.
    That's very helpful as I'm new to all this.

    Avoid YouGov.

    They owe me £40 odd, but won't let me login and won't respond to any communications.

    Not strictly surveys but the UX type of sites are worth looking at, Intellizoom, Userbrain and Userlytics are my favourites.

    The one I use is Amazon shoppers panel app, which pays £5 a month for 5 mins taking photos of 10 receipts.  Current earnings £130. Does this qualify as a survey? Not sure if you have to be invited to join it.
