Lightspeed Paid Surveys Discussion Thread (Merged)

I've had no problems with Lightspeed, surveys are regular and they payout out quite quickly. Having said that has any one noticed that they have reduced the points received for each survey? I used to get 110 points for each completed survey, now it's only 80. At first i thought it was a one off but since late Dec early Jan it's been the norm.0

It's possible January is slow as it is beginning of the year.
I too noticed there are lower points surveys coming through with same or more minutes to complete the survey so the value of points are really going down hill. I don't know if it's worthwhile doing the survey if they ask 80 points for you to spend 20 minutes!0 -

The thing is that they don't often seem to take me as long as they reckon they will so I find that they are still worthwhile. It probably depends on how much spare time you have but I really wish their time estimates were more realistic as some times they say 30 mins which really puts you off completing the survey and then it only takes about 10!2008: £783.12 - 2009: £6,401.15 - 2010: £4,230.61 - 2011: £8720 - 2012: £2,041.89

I find Lightspeed a bit hit and miss in regards to getting regular surveys. Sometimes I will get loads and then I won't get any for ages. I generally only qualify for one a month now which is a bit rubbish. They're ok but they used to be better imo.Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Car loan 1 £11,174, Car loan 2 £5,532, CC 0% BT £780. Debt Free Diary to try & keep spending in check.0

Pureprofile is much better value than lightspeed. You only have to literally few clicks and they'll give you 50p-£1.0 -
I did one this morning and when I got right to the end and clicked to take me back to the site to get my points it crashed - great all that work for nothing. I am not going to bother e-mailing Lauren because it never gets me anywhere.0
