Ipsos/Acop/Home of Research - Are they worth it?

Jan46Daw

Ipsos Access Panel is a good survey site to join. I have being a member for years now and I enjoy doing the surveys that they send me. You might also be able to test products for them as well as doing the surveys. The points soon add up and I think that they do Capital Bond Vouchers as a reward option but there are others to choose from. Hope that this helps you to make up your mind.:j

I agree with Jan46Daw that Ipsos Access Panel is a good one to join,I have had a fair Amazon vouchers as rewards from them

Thanks very much ladies, I will certainly give them a go. Thankyou:)
(and thanks to whoever moved my post into the correct place!)

I use IPSOS and get payouts every few months. They also do product tests occasionally as well, but you can't tell from the survey invite that it's linked to a product test. The best product I had from them was a full size Olay moisturiser.
I also use MySurvey, which also pays out very regularly (more regularly than IPSOS in my experience).
I also do quite well from Consumer Pulse (about £10 a month) and Givauldan(sp?).

Is anyone on the IPSOS MEDIACELL? It's an app I have on my phone that monitors what tv programs I watch. It has to be installed for 3 months. At the end of the three months I receive a £30 shopping voucher.

The only surveys I like from Ipsos are the ones where you can do a product test. This is because, if you work out just how much they are paying you for each survey it's terrible, worse than many of the others. I now pick and choose each survey I receive from them. If I start it and it's a boring one I'm afraid I just close it. I worked it out that you get around £1 something on average for each survey and you have to get right to 1380 points for a £10 voucher.

Oh and there doesn't seem to be a way of checking that you've received points for surveys completed now, even though they say you just check My Points Account on their page. I can't find it, but I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong.

If you hover where it says 'Rewards' at the top of the page then select 'My Points Account' all your individual credits should then be shown. It's working ok for me.

I quite like Ipsos, the reward for surveys is not too bad, not the best but definitely not the worst. Unfortunately I don't seem to be getting as many surveys from Ipsos in the last couple of months, i'm hoping they pick up again.

One of my favourite sites, although I too think it has been quieter survey wise recently.

I like that you can get a reward when you reach £10 worth of points, unlike most others who make you wait until £50 worth for a pay out.

I average £50 pay out from them annualy but being able to get it bit by bit (or £10 Amazon voucher by £10 Amazon voucher ) is cool.

Definitely one of my preferred sites - average about 6 amazon vouchers a year that are delivered within minutes to my email - tested a lot of products for them over the 7+ years I've been with them - from washing powder, butter, fabric conditioner, shampoo, furniture polish, crisps....highly recommend them!

Ipsos are ok. I agree their surveys are quite long for not very much but hey, that's the same as most survey sites tbh. As someone mentioned, you do occasionally get products to test - i recently got a same of some new cheese Philadelphia are looking to bring out!
