if you are looking for a roamer invite, head to their uk Facebook page, I managed to get one there from someone.0

Hi guys.
Any fresh suggestion on new ways of earning online?
Cheers.0 -
Thought I'd add a summary of my experiences after signing up for a few recommended on MSE.
Roamler - great, usually plenty of tasks for around £2-4 a time, occasionally up to £9 plus refunded coffees (that was a good week!), can be gruelling/boring/stressful but sometimes fun too...pretending to be a mystery shopper whilst taking photos in a shoebox sized convenience store is quite challenging! The payment comes through within moments of you requesting it (wait until it's over £20 or you'll lose a percentage in Paypal fees) and the team who communicate with you in-app are generally friendly and reasonable - be warned they do sometimes reject tasks if photos are blurry or similar so take care to follow the instructions as closely as you can.
Clic and Walk - Better than the MSE summary, maybe it's a new development but they often have £5 tech tasks in electrical shops where you mystery shop speakers, remote controls etc, often two different tasks per store so easy to earn a decent whack if there are a few PC Worlds or similar near you.
StreetSpotr...grr, this one really annoys me. They take around a month to pay you for each task, the app is fiddly and counter-intuitive, the in-app team are rude and inflexible, it frequently crashes whilst on the job and you have to restart your phone (a bit embarrassing if you're supposed to be mystery shopping), it posts requests for tasks which have already been done - as an example, there's been a request to take a picture of Go Pro displays wherever you might find one. Then they went and listed lots of places with Go Pros as specific tasks, you go there to do the job only to find on the map that someone's already done the task under the previous 'find a Go Pro' banner. So now it's stuck in limbo with loads of tasks listed as available, nobody is doing them as they've already been done, yet no new jobs coming through.
Even worse, they once invited me to buy a hair product in Tesco (phone alert goes off in store, sounds like coins falling on the floor, was right at the end of my shop so had to go back in, annoying) which they would refund if I answered some questions...ok...find there's nothing I want but pick something anyway knowing it will be refunded, do the task and submit it, but they said they had no record so wouldn't pay or even just refund for the product. I had a receipt, but they wanted a screen cap to prove I'd submitted it, which was not something I even knew I could do on a phone. I politely remonstrated with them but they wouldn't budge, said they were a small start up with no budget (yeah right, they seem to cover most of Europe) so ended up £7 out of pocket (admittedly not a fortune, but I wouldn't be doing these jobs if I was loaded!).
As a contrast when the Roamler app messed up in a similar fashion they refunded me for the product and even added a little extra on top for my time.
Yoobic - signed up over 6 months ago, never received a single task.0 -
can anyone please tell whether I can download Field Agent for an android phone? or is it just for IPhones only, thanks.0

Task 360 all the way. I am still unable to take it in. I made £28 in 2days doing simple tasks. Some as simple as just walking into a shop as a normal customer and just checking if they had a specific product/brand in stock and taking a photo of it. 3minutes job for £5, not bad at all. I am loving this Task 360 App.
By the way, I also found inboxforpounds a great money making online destination. Do surveys etc and earn. Ive made £11.52 just this last 8days or so.0 -

Thank you, have just downloaded Task 360 and there's an assignment on there for £3. Do you have to apply for task and then wait to be accepted?0 -
Are there any that pay a different way other than Pay pal?0

I used OnePulse to make money from Mobile App. OnePulse is a fantastic app which pays you very easily.0

I've got a two apps on my phone:
Google Opinion Rewards - I've got several "free" movies by spending the Play Credits you get from them. By far the easiest surveys and cleanest, simplest app I've tried.
Attapoll - I've got a couple of £5 Paypal payments from these. Infrequent surveys but at least they pay in Paypal so I can spend it on non-Google stuff.
Neither of them are going to make you lots of money (a fiver a month if you're very lucky) but I like them because they are normally short surveys and pretty straightforward to do.
I can't be bothered with tasks that involve going into shops and taking pictures.0 -
My best online earner is via the Task360 App. I have earned £72 with Task 360 app over just 15days. My first task was on 19th Sep and by the close of yesterday 4th October I had completed 11 tasks in total. Lowest amount I earned per task was £5 and the highest was £9.
Although I had to put in a bit of effort, the tasks are generally easy and straightforward and they always give you all the necessary instructions. With a little bit of effort and dedication, the extra cash will come in.0
