Is it just me or is it a common problem with Valued Opinions.
Every time I try to open a new survey sent in an email I get the following error straight away, the surveys doesn't even load up:

Thank you very much for your interest in our surveys. Unfortunately you can’t participate in this study. Our records indicate that your ID has already been registered for this project and/or data inconsistencies have been identified regarding the profile data you’ve provided.
If you need assistance or have any questions, please get in touch with our support team by sending any enquiries to [EMAIL="enquiries@valuedopinions.co.uk"]enquiries@valuedopinions.co.uk[/EMAIL]


So what's the point in sending me any invitations whatsoever?
I have recently updated my profile to the best of my knowledge and started having such errors since.
And just to add, I have never come across anything like this before in VO surveys.


Not happy...

I get this problem whenever I try to access surveys from anywhere other than my regular ISP - eg when staying with family. I then can't access any surveys for a few days. I now just complete surveys at home.

Thank you so much for the information here! It has helped me greatly. I am new to this forum, but this information has already been blessing to me.

I found this pretty big list of UK surveys companies the other day:

surveybounty.com/forum/topic12.html

Sorry, can't post the url linked because this forum thinks I'm spamming! :eek:

Seems like all the links work. Hmmm, now only if I had 5 hours to sign up with all the panels, ha ha.

Id like to add how slow Surveyhead are and there customer service is gash.

Typically 4-6 weeks (sometime more) for your survey reward to show on the account

Then when you hit the cash out threshold it takes another (in my case) 6 weeks for them to accept it

Then im almost a week now waiting for the ££ to go into my paypal account

They also nabbed a full survey about heartburn remedy 'Pantaco' worth a couple of quid only for it to cancel me right at the end (when I have completed it)

Survey sites anger me so much when they do this. It happened to me yesterday, completed 15 minutes of suvery, then told me I did not qualify. I was fuming to say the least.

I have been using survey sites for some time now, on and off. I am just getting my first payout now (from Global Test Market). I think I will be doing it more seriously this summer and hopefully get something out of it. I just end up stopping as it feels as though I am never going to get paid for it.
