    Absolutely. It's all just a little too convenient imo. 
    I use a mix of sites and some are certainly better than others. I think there's a fair bit of dirty practice in the market research industry and those that take surveys are treated pretty poorly. The researchers are more than happy to remind you not to rush, to be honest, not give gibberish responses but in return your paid pennies if you actually get paid at all. I do wonder why I do sometimes

    Could you mention which sites are the better ones?
    I used Qmee quite a bit in the run up to last Christmas and made about £100 in two months from surveys, but yes, loads of their surveys are annoying, ie they screen you out after spending quite a lot of time on them etc.
    Whats the current state of Qmee? Still good or has it fallen off since the pandemic?

    Again IMO. I perceive that the pay rates are slightly down and I do feel like I've been on the receiving end of more 'conveniently late screen outs' and 'technical errors'.

    I've given up reporting it to their support team because I've no patience with the copy and paste response that they send. Having wasted time on a non paying survey I have no inclination to waste more being told it was my fault for rushing or providing contradictory answers when I know it's not true.

    In the interest of saying something positive. I do find the 'time to complete' estimate useful in avoiding those that take far longer than indicated. I also like being able to cash out any amount, anytime, straight in to P@ypal. I also like the report option for individual faulty surveys even though it doesn't seem to improve anything.

    Doing qmee? Care to share what you're doing to make so much? Any tips?

    I struggle to understand how it is possible to make a significant amount using Qmee when the payment for surveys are so poor. Definitely not £55+ in a single month!

    I have surveys showing as 44p for 23 minutes, 12p for 8 minutes, 33p for 20 minutes etc. It’s not worth wasting my time for such a lowly amount! That’s even assuming you’re not screened out part way through.
