My Guide To Paid Survey Sites

sugarplumfairy

I'm with most of the usual ones, Lightspeed, Global Opinion Poll, Test & Vote, GFK what I buy,(just signed up for the tv one), Ciao, Ipoints, Zoom panel. I have found with a lot of the caio surveys that you answer most of the questions and then get screened out and the reward for the surveys is a bit naff - 81p for the last few.

I have been lucky enough to get to try a few freebies with Synovate I think it was, I got sent a packet of 8 chicken stock cubes to try (handy as i already use them) and then had a new Haagen Daaz icecream to try, yummy. All i had to do in return was give my opinion on them.

Has anyone got an opinion on pinecone as I recently signed up?

Pinecone are definately one of the best in my opinion! You are pre-approved to complete the surveys so no screening out and they send you stuff to try! Plus payment always arrives really quickly!
I have completed 4 surveys for them and have 2 things to try atm!!!

We did that, was fine for a year, then 5 scanners broke in a row, then they stopped contacting us and ignored any contact we made

Hi everyone, sorry for my slow response, I've been away on a training course this week, and they haven't invented the internet yet in Oldham!

I have joined lightspeed and juicybrains, some of which I forgot to add!

As I work full time, it can be difficult to keep up with the surveys, but as soon as you figure out how they work you can do them all within an hour each night (and still find time to go to the pub!)

I shall see if i can find a direct link for IPSOS.

Thank you all for the kind replies!

Hello, thanks for op. I see that you receive a lot of survey invitations. Do you tell a little white lie, and say you have/do things in order to get more invites? e.g. you suddenly have a dog?!! I am just wondering because I don't seem to get many invites, boo hoo!!

Hi there,

No, I don't fib on the surveys in order to gain more invites.

Just make sure that you have filled out your profiles on all the sites you're with, as this enhances the chance of getting invited.

Being punctual with them is also a good point, as if you are, you can get refered to other survey sites as I have done.

Hope this helps, and good luck!:beer:
