    Just got this today from them,


    We still think you’re the greatest! In fact, we think you’re so great, we have another survey for you right now. Would you like to take it?
    Survey #: 345261
    This survey takes about 40 minutes.

    No mention of any points, which seems kind of intentional.

    What do you think are the chances its a sweepstake survey, well not doing it anyway, I'm not totally gullible.

    John

    It's 251407, I haven't had the points either, have chased up and they are looking into it.


    I too completed the full 14 day cat food survey in February and have contacted GTM about it again receiving a generic response similar to others but still haven't received payment.

    Has anyone actually been rewarded for it by GTM yet?

    No I have still not got the points too. I am going to email them again, but then again they will probably just fob me off. We should have had our points by now though.

    Keep pestering them!After my 5th or 6th e-mail about the pet food survey I got this response the other day:

    Thanks for your email. We apologize that you were unable to complete survey
    251407. Because the survey was not fully completed, we cannot credit your
    account with full points, however, we have credited your account with 40
    MarketPoints.

    Well I did complete the survey/diary and it's not the minimum 60 points promised but it's something and they later credited my account.

    Regarding johnsmi's query about the smoking survey I also did it a couple of weeks ago and thought it was rather sly that £15 was the incentive but GTM were only offering 100 points!The survey took over an hour to do and I haven't heard a peep yet about my points so here we go again...:mad:

    Vivatic went swiftly down hill when they started messing about like this and I don't bother with them anymore,I hope GTM isn't going the same way.

    I claimed my £30 transfer on 27th April and the money was in my PayPal account this morning.Taking into account weekends and the bank holiday that's one day shy of two weeks but just within the stated 5 - 7 working days.

    Funny how electronic transfers take two weeks,how bizarre! ;)

    Just reached 1100 points today,and claimed $50 cheque.Will let you know how long it takes.
  • I didn't get credited for a survey. It was 40 or 60 points. Can't remember so we'll call it 40. So I emailed them. Belated emails a couple of times. This was a few weeks ago. I'd forgotten about it. They seem very busy. I got 3x competition entries. Really not bothered about that. It's like they acknowledge it but gave me a cheap prize to save payout. Really? >_< Oh well, it's not as bad as when Swagbucks ripped me off of fifty odd quid.
