OnePoll Trick

They are my best paying survey site because the surveys are so short I can quickly access them throughout the day .
Swagbucks only allow one per household and my son has got there first !

Gutted! Do Swagbucks actually check up on that, then? I've often wondered if my wife could have an account, but maybe not. Could you sign yourself up under a work address? Maybe that's a bit deceitful.

I don't think it has anything to do with security, it's about cash flow.

In the beginning when they had few members they used to pay immediately. But they probably didn't get paid for the surveys done until the following month. Or more likely 30 days after the end of the month the surveys were completed in.

They must have had a float to pay the members before they got paid. But as the number of members has grow the float isn't big enough. So many members have to wait 4-6 weeks to be paid, by which time onepoll have received another payment.

Even that is not enough, so they have to delay some members from cashing out so their payment can come out of the month after next months payment.

This is why, when you ask about your late payment they always reply "we are awaiting a paypal payment", which basically means "we don't have enough money to pay you, so you'll have to wait until we get next months payment".

The delayed payments are about cash flow. The delay allowing you to hit £40 is due to security checks. They've confirmed this enough times before.

And you believe everything you are told by complete strangers on the internet?

They are hardly going to admit they don't have the money to pay you, are they?

As for checking the answers match the profiles, complete rubbish, why wait until you have done very nearly £40 worth of surveys before checking to see if you are telling the truth? By then they will have passed most of the data on to whoever commissioned the surveys.

And looking at it from the other side, where are the people who have had their money stopped because their answers didn't match their profile?

If they are checking answers they would have caught some before now, and that someone would be shouting that they had made a mistake.
