    Are you using .co.uk or .com? I've done this before and put in .com and couldn't get on. I've tried just now and it seems ok for me.

    ooh err, it looks like .com - but when I check my emails its .co.uk - good spot!

    At the moment there is one on the "pick my postcode" survey page (previously known as free postcode lottery)

    I've just logged in with no problems. Are you using the correct address? It should be co.uk and not .com at the end. :)

    I used to get fairly regular surveys. Now I'm down to one every few months. Not really worth it any more.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I probably only average about one or two a month over a whole year, but it's a straightforward £3 with no screen out and a quick easy payout. You're also guaranteed another survey if you're lucky enough to test a product.

    I always accept the offer to test if the initial survey is chocolate based :D:D:D:D

    I noticed the invite on Pick my Postcode now shows the reward is down to £2. It seems times are hard in survey land with reduced earnings available even on the better platforms

    The £2 is the amount that gets added to your PMP bonus the surveys are still £3 (although how long they remain that way who knows - I have seen some of their surveys turn up on swagbucks for less than 20p each)

    Ooopps :o:o:o silly me. I don't often pay attention. My PMP bonus is about £43 so I've no obsession with increasing it. Even a stackpot win would make me very happy.:D

    I suppose you can't blame them for trying to maximise the return but if I got routed to a Pinecone survey through SB I'd close it without a second thought.

    Hopefully they'll stick at £3 I think it's a fair return for the time the surveys take. I'm much more inclined to give a bit more effort on Pinecone, Prolific and the likes as it feels closer to a fair deal for both sides.
