    Ive got 20,472 points and am saving for an ipad:o, does anyone know any survey sites that change points to ipoints?
    :beer:

    Not sure how many points an ipad is but have you tried transfering them to amazon vouchers? Not only do they have excellent customer service but they do tend to offer better prices on most of their items. That way you could join other panels which also offer amazon vouchers and boost your total. In addition your likely to have more choice, I can't see ipoints offering the older (and cheaper) versions once the new version comes out yet Amazon will likely have all versions available.

    IPSOS, mysurvey, zoompanel (though slow to get anywhere with zoompanel) and many others offer Amazon vouchers. Others offer a cheque as payment once you get past certain goal posts.

    Thanks , so what your saying is, convert all my survey sites to amazon vouchers and then buy an ipad off there as it will be better value than waiting for it to come down?
    Ive got about £150 in shop and scan, £250 in paypal from surveys, valued opinions about £120, opinion world £140, and l;oads more never thought!:eek:

    Just looked, a 64gb ipad 2 is £559 in argos (3g one is dearer, what is 3g?), ive got £62.59 in nectar i can use there, £85.00 in ipoints), £154 in valued opinions, and £125 in my survey.
    Which comes to £426.59!, ive got about £150 in opinion world as well!. And thats discounting the stacks of other survey sites ive been doing years and never cashed out! and ive got capital bond vouchers in house from food panel too, im glad you said about doing it this way!
    I may as well treat myself, i spend all the time doing surveys so may as well reward myself!, thanks:beer:

    wayne1983 I wouldn't leave such high value in unclaimed points at any survey website, you just never know whether the company will fold.

    Good luck

    I have just under £300 value in vouchers at Amazon, earned from various survey websites. -Saving for a new tablet PC, and keep checking the redemption dates. Would hate to lose any money.
