    Hmm, strange. Usually when you reach £40 they won't send you more surveys until you payout this £40 (It happened to me twice like that), but not before that.

    This happened to me at £39.90, lasted for 3 working days. Then I received about 8 surveys in one day, cashed out my £40 a week or two back and already back to £3.30 :)

    It'll come back, I wonder if it is something they do to allow them time to check our accounts before we reach redemption?

    Hello Katykicker, I often read your posts as I usually get answers to my questions without having to post, you are very helpful :o.
    Could I ask how long you need to do onepoll before you cash out? I'm thinking of joining.

    Thanks :) It varies per person, I find that I can cashout twice a year, sometimes three times if I put more effort in.

    Recently I have been logging in daily and according to my online spreadsheet I have been making somewhere between £1.50 and £3.50 most weeks Monday-Friday so on target for 3 cashouts a year - which isn't bad really!

  • Hello, I'm new to this so I hope I have posted in the right place.

    Has anyone heard of PennyForum.net? I have just received a leaflet inviting me to take part in Focus Groups, Home usage tests etc, "earn up to £100 per session". Just wondered if anyone has any thoughts? It seems to be owned and operated by PeoplePeople UK. I don't want to get involved in any scams!

    :)

    £100 a session. That alone sets bells ringing.
    I've not heard of them but it sounds to good to be true.

    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

  • Is there any good one where to test stuff at home, I signed up to Onepoll and that's a nice survey site, surveys don't last more than about 10 minutes but past couple of days there asn't been many.

    Try Producttesting i don't know much about product testing sites but this one looks pretty good
  • The You Gov sit is a bit quicker to rack up the £50 than stated here. I managed in four months (ish) by doing a survey every couple of days. It certainly doesn't take years. I'm now well on my way to the next £50.
