    The toolbar sends them all the websites you visit apparently, so be careful where you visit! ;)

    Bear in mind, also, that you already gave them your name, address, age, income level and browser information when you signed up over an insecure website...:eek:

    I use firefox and only use IE for taking the surveys
  • A friend of mine has used GFK for ages and had a few wins with them. I got my voucher not long after downloading the toolbar but remember it only works with Internet Explorer not Mozilla. You get the voucher via e mail. The surveys only last a few minuets if your a TV viewer a great way of giving your opinion about the TV programs.

    Does the toolbar need to be visible?

    To those who have made £££ thru surveys what would you say your income per hour is? Is it really worth your time? Just curious!

    I had only joined GfK 6 weeks before I won £500, it takes me bout 2 minutes a day to fill out 2 questionnaires (plus once a week I do the web questionnaire), so:

    45 (days) x 2 (minutes) = 90

    500/90 = £5.55/minute

    £5.55 x 60 = £333.33/hour

    :rotfl: Wouldn't mind that on a full time basis!

    Seriously though, it's impossible to work out an hourly rate as you can't guarantee winning every month. The homepage says you have a 1/7 chance of winning, but that could be a £5 amazon voucher.

    Been a member of gfk for a while and on average win £5 a month of Amazon vouchers, did the toolbar, the voucher took a while but got it via e-mail in the end.

    The toolbar just tracks what websites you visit, but it's only specific to you and you can change it to the Guest option so that it's not tracking.

    I have been wth GFK for some time now, and have had regular £5 voucers for media questionnaires, and won several £5 vouchers for doig the questionnaires. This site has been worth the small bit of hassl.

    I tried downloading the toolbar a week or two ago but everytime i do it it says it hasn't installed propely and to go to 'view' and untick a box.I for the life of me cannot see 'view' anywhere on the site and it's driving me mad.
