PC survey emails have suddenly stopped

I have been registered with the popular survey site for several years, I was receiving regular surveys, 1 a week most recently, then suddenly nothing for months.

Is it worth contacting them, or trying to re-register? I was on £4 per survey, believe its less for new signups, but better than nothing at all...

    It has significantly dropped off for me too, but yesterday I got my first survey in months. In the mean time, I've had lots of sets of questions to answer for them. I presume I just wasn't what they were looking for.

    I wouldn't re-register- they'd get funny about that and probably cancel all your accounts.

    One a week? Wow. That sounds incredibly lucky. I've been with them 2 months and I've just had the one. I was under the impression that was the norm with them!

    I've been with PC for years and receive only the occasional survey these days.

    As they're such a great company, with highest pay outs, and paying immediately, they are very popular.

    I would just do the few surveys they send. Maybe register with other survey sites, such as New Vista, Populus, YouGov, and Valued Opinions. They are also quite good, but not in the same league as Pinecone.

    Ok, thanks, will sit back and wait it out.

    For most of the time they were few and far between, then seemed to get loads, then suddenly nothing. Wondered if I'd missed one or something and been taken off?

    Am with loads of others too, but much more of a trickle with the money coming in.

    I've gone from getting a couple a month maybe more with them, to 1 since last September.
