    Off topic but has anyone noticed surveys drying up?

    I used to get 3/4 a week and I haven't had a single one offered since 12th May.
    I've noticed no difference. I would check your settings if I were you. They sometimes ask if the amount of surveys being sent is too much, not enough or just right.

    I think they then ask if you want to get them whenever they're available, once a week etc. Perhaps no longer receive any is also an option, I can't remember. It's possible you've checked a box accidentally and are no longer getting them.
    Cheers. I can't see anything in settings about choosing survey frequency.

    I thought maybe my account was suspended but I can still log in and all of my banking connections are working as well as daily questions etc .

    No issues here either, sometimes I get 4-5 surveys a week and often when I finished one I get asked if I'd like to do another one. Other weeks it's only 1-2 surveys. Sometimes OH and I get the same surveys sometimes completely different ones and also the frequency varies. 

    Most of the surveys are for 50 points, some smaller ones for 25 but from time to time I also get some for 150 points.

    Guess you may not fall into the target group for many surveys.

    Sorry about that. You used to be able to change the frequency settings. This support page says it could be found under Personal Details but it was last updated 5 years ago.

    It also says: If you’re still concerned about not having heard from YouGov for a while make sure that you haven't accidentally marked any emails from us as spam (some email domains might do this automatically). If this isn’t the case it's possible that you have failed one of our regular, automated data quality checks. We take the quality of our data extremely seriously, and if we detect patterns of responses that suggest inattention or inconsistency, we may pause your account.

    Thank you.

    I e-mailed them and got a response within 2 hours (stunned!). They said my account is active so no restrictions on surveys.

    I must just be outside of the demographic at the moment.

    Thanks.  Seems to be a problem with Yahoo mail.  Incoming emails are being delayed.

    I've been getting them less often - maybe 1 a week, no timed availability ones, still getting the 10 account connection bonuses. Some of mine are empty and some are not

    Thanks for reminding actually, I have 2x CC on there with BT offers that end over the next couple of months and I was going to close the cards, best leave them going!

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
