Hope everyone has had a lovely Sunday.

Did two surveys for CP yesterday and got 1700 points so cashed out a £10 Argos voucher tonight which I will add to my Xmas pot of vouchers. Taking me to £70 in vouchers towards Xmas pressies :j:j

Also got one item listed on ebay :D But its a high value item so hoping for £100 for it. Fingers crossed

Does anyone do Onepu1se. Do you find if you do the free surveys you get more paying ones?

I do one pulse. I do all the free surveys, as you get points and these move you further up the experience tree. the more experience, the more paid surveys. worth doing. I enjoy the free surveys too

:eek::eek::eek:. Luckily our Christmas is always very low-key but even then it needs some thinking about and money-juggling:(.

Welcome to any new people and congrats to old hands. Keep at it:beer:

Teeming down here and I've been having envious thoughts of lynnejk sunning herself on holiday. I hope she's having a lovely time:beer:.

A few results to declare at last:j. Received £19.10 for books sold on Amazon last week. Sold some others but money not received yet so will count it when it is.

Had 20 items listed on eBay to finish last night and 15 sold bringing in £54.15 after all fees, postage etc. Easy things to parcel up so have got them all posted. Strangely the unsold ones had the most watchers (one even had 10 watchers!) but no bids:(.

So that's £73.27 altogether. Total includes 2p roadkill from last week (well, every little helps:rotfl:).

Just been awarded 5p for being screened out of a PureProfile survey part-way through. Just noticed I'm up to £17.20 in my account but redemption is £25 and when I checked the only other redemption I ever reached with them was in March 2010:eek:. Their surveys are so few and far between and/or I get screened out. This is definitely one company that I'll be unsubscribing from if ever I get to £25! Does anyone else have more luck with them? Still waiting for my last 50p survey from YouGov to take me to the £50 redemption mark.

Have a good week, everyone:beer:

Congratulations, Rosie:T

How long did the money take to arrive once you'd hit £50? Did they pay by BACS? I thought they only paid by cheque. I'm on 4950 points so hopefully will be receiving 50 much needed pounds shortly:j

for those of you who have a quidco account, they have a rugby game, play daily or as many times as you can stomach it until you win some cash.

I mastered the catching of the rugby ball, ok probably wrong terms, got my 3 passes, to find I won nothing :mad: others i know have won £2, payable at end of month or next month, not sure now.

if you don't have a quidco account, please sign up using a referral, would be most appreciated, from this board.

sorry having a bit of a carp month. still making money but it is not extra, just helping with my daily living etc

I have written back to one PPI company with more information and waiting on a response from them

I have the address of the other one that can provide evidence of ppi so will write to them to get that and try again.

I have sent off a form to ns and I, for forgotten/lost premium bonds, etc. you never know

There are others who have done the lost account search successfully and found money! :T

Any of you doing prolific academic there have been a spate of great surveys but I miss them or they are not interested in me :rotfl:

Sorry your month isn't going too well, Aesop. You're always here to help us and have given us all so many money-making ideas over the months and I'm really sad that you're having a lean spell.
Keep smiling:beer: xxx

Did you have to go through the procedure of requesting copies of paperwork from any of your PPI claims? I understood it to cost £10 a pop:eek:. I've got some of the paperwork from one of the two that I had PPI with (Lloyds:() over the years. I haven't anything from the oldest one I had with them and my online statements don't go back that far. Don't want to pay them any more than I already have and to be honest I haven't applied for PPI because I ticked the box myself and signed for it on the application form:o. My only claim would be that nobody explained the Ts and Cs to me but I expect they could say they were there in black and white to be read by anyone applying.

The thought of a refund of even hundreds never mind thousands would be a godsend but I honestly don't think I've got a leg to stand on:mad:
