  • Another £1.80 for me from surveys. 

    Brilliant day @CMD79. Who do you use for mystery shops? I tried some once many years ago, but they weren't much good.

  • Got the payment for my OH's FD bank switch today - woohoo! Not heard about mine yet even though I did them at same time - though I didn't have any DD's on mine so hoping that didn't affect it - couldn't see DD's mentioned in the details so will have to see.

    £5 this morning cashed out from SB. Fingers crossed I might be back with more later. 

    Just adding another £2.03, from a cash out on Curious Cats...they are long and slow but pay out with £1 minimum and it all adds up. 
     So £7.03 in total today.

    Mine paid out almost immediately after my DDs came out with First Direct. I'd have a look again if I were you, to make sure! Most I've seen say something like you have 60 days for 2 DDs to go out xx That's good on the Prolific :smiley:

    Oh heck! I can't find anything which says need the DDs but maybe it's assumed. I'll have to set up a couple of DDs on the account and hope it does the trick. At least they'll be set up the for the next switch.

    Good morning all!

    We have 8 days left in October  :# and I am quite a way off my £20 a day!! But I have been earning it, so it'll give me a head start for November! I've not done as much activity this month either to be honest because we have lot going on at home.

    I've totalled up and am at £99.78 altogether, so, 8 days to get £520.22 paid in is probably a little unlikely!! I'm going to try though!

    @holly_hobby - I might be completely wrong of course about those DDs!
