Ipsos surveys - do they call you at home?

Options
I've had a few missed calls from a number this week which I've googled and it comes up as Ipsos Mori. Further googling shows that they're the same people as Ipsos Access Panels which I am actually a member of and do surveys for - other people on here who do their surveys, do they ever phone you? I can't think why they would be phoning me, I didn't think I'd even put my phone number in my profile tbh as pretty much the only people who have my landline number are my immediate family. I tried ringing it back but it doesn't actually go through to anyone (doesn't help that they keep ringing me at gone 9pm I suppose?!).

    Hi

    I have my mobile number on my profile but they have never called me. Profile says:

    These are phone numbers and permissions for use we have on file for you. Allowing phone contact can increase the number of survey opportunities you get and the points you earn.


    9pm is a bit late to call. How odd.

    I have had a call from them in the past - was a long, time ago - couple of years now, I think? It was a follow up on a product test that I did. All they asked were the standard questions that you get from an internet survey. (How much did you like the product, did you like the fragrance of the product ...) That kind of thing. But if I recall, they called about 7.30 - 8pm.

    Cos how can you be gloomy, when the sun shines out your bum? :D

    Email them through the IPSOS website and ask them
    Or post on their facebook page
  • I checked my account and can't see that I've put a number in, turns out it was just a coincidence anyway, managed to catch them yesterday and they'll stop calling me now! It was a right pain cos every time they called by the time I got to the phone it had stopped ringing cos I was either in bed or lying on the sofa nearly asleep! Who does market research at gone 9pm at night?!
