Unemployed & need cash quick

Hi all,

I have recently become unemployed and wondered if anyone had any advice on how I can make money online quickly.

I know there are a lot of sites out there for surveys and cashback etc but from previous experience it takes months/years to make any kind of withdrawal amount on these sites.

I'm looking for employment every day but obviously it becomes pretty boring and tedious after hours spent trawling the net so wondering iif any one had some ideas how I can use a couple of hours each day to make some cash?

Thanks in advance :)

    There are many threads on this forum some of which are asking the same question. There isn't a quick, easy way of making money online otherwise everyone would work from home to make money I guess.

    I'd suggest to read several topics to see what works for you.

  • As asajj has said, there is no quick and easy way to make cash. Any site that says different is almost certainly a scam.

    There are a lot of people who often cash out on survey sites. It al depends on how much you use them and how many surveys you qualify for. Some sites have other offers or features (e.g. games or videos) so you can do them and cash out sooner. If you really want some extra cash it might be worth trying them again and giving a site or two a proper go. Even if you only get a little or have to wait a while to withdraw it's money you didn't have before.

    You get cashback from spending and using sites like Topcashback or Quidco. It's a way to get cash back when you spend, not a way to make money. Well worth using though.
