    Gold survey, said 4 mins, took 4 mins completing it to reach a screen where it said I had qualified for the survey!!
    We are specifically interested in gaining feedback about your experience of shopping for your computer or tablet PC. The survey should take approximately 25 minutes

    answered a couple more questions and it was clearly going to take ages so closed it.

    Has anyone done a survey that says:

    To get marked as a qualify you will need to download a simple app and login with your details. Further there will be a few short polls through the app which will get you an addition £20.00 for. Hope you will enjoy this exciting market research campaign. Are you willing to participate?

    Yes, I understand and ready
    No


    The bad sentence structure is putting me off and I'm also not sure how I would receive this £20. Has anyone completed this and is it legit? I've just got the screen open now waiting to either proceed or close it.

    Thanks

    It's a 10min 50SB survey no: 8252761

    Not on my survey list but I would be wary of it as well

    The question I would ask is "do I trust an unknown app, from an unknown source, with no idea of what it will do and then decide its worth a possible risk to my computer in order to earn about 36p"

    For me, the answer would be no. I have no idea if it is harmless or not, but would err on the side of caution.

    Thanks guys, I closed it. I was going to close it right away but thought I'd check in here in case anyone had actually had some success with it. :beer:

    This sounds like it is for Shopalong. I am currently in the middle of one on mobile phones, there have been other similar ones about baby products. From what I can gather this is legit and they do pay out.
  • Saw a survey for 1500SB but of course didn't cut the mustard - too old, too young, wrong colour hair, wrong type of toothpaste - who knows! :rotfl:

    Same, don't think it liked my electric toothbrush and bog standard toothpaste and mouthwash. I guess it was wanting whitening pens and floss.

    It's too late for this one now but how do you get your £20? I've done ones before that say they pay £15 for this that and other but I only got the SBs listed on the survey homepage.

    I've just finished an inCompass 7 day diary today but I don't know when they will send me the £5 voucher.
