    Update:
     Some accounts that were new when initially added (and didn't track points) but have been active since (just over a month) have been deleted (at the YouGov end) and readded, and have now tracked.


    Another update:
    An account that didn't initially track, but has been active since, was readded. This time without deleting first, and this has tracked.

    Just be aware, if you relink/add accounts that have tracked, then the counter will be reset to 89 days. As such to get the next reward points, 90 days after initial addition, will likely require a manual re-add, to trigger the points.

    Thank you @Bridlington1 @Band7
    for highlighting this. 

    I added 2 current accounts and a credit card. 

    Others wouldn’t work and I have accounts that aren’t eligible. 

    I set up 10 new savings accounts that I’ve been able to add, as none I’ve already been paying into have come up as eligible.

    So in all 2,500 points or £25 each time these are re-authorised. But if I don’t do the surveys, still only half way there. 

    I’ve been a YouGov member for ages though and don’t mind it apart from the fact it’s so very slow. If this all goes through, I’m here with everything crossed,  this time around it does take me past the £50 thanks to points already accrued over far too long. 

    Maybe I can get others to work in the future, so long as it’s worthwhile per time taken. 

    Just adding this information in case it’s of use to anyone looking into this for a first time.

    How does that work?

    When I go on there is only a link to add or manage bank accounts?

    Definitely do it if its possible.

    It's on the main YouGov website. Log in and click your profile in the top right corner and select 'safe'.

    You need to download the plug in, which won't work for m on mobile or tablet so needs to be done on a PC/laptop I think.

    This is not available to all yougov account holders. In fact, it seems to be only available to very few people, probably upon invite only.

    Something strange happened yesterday. I was attempting to figure out which accounts failed to qualify back in January, and given a sufficient amount of time had passed to allow some buildup of activity history, I took a risk and deleted/re-added them (leaving about 5-10 minutes between additions).

    One at a time, I added four savings accounts, one Amex credit card, and a Monzo current account (with one pot forcibly added), in an alternating fashion. The next day, approximately 24 hours later, I received 5x 100 points... and at random intervals that cannot possibly match the order and timings of when I added them. 🤔

    What savings accounts are people having success with?

    Re Amex, if you have a supplementary card (or two) on your account, add that as well!  (But if you have a supp card on someone else's account, that doesn;t seem to count for you.)

    I have a 3 week old account that I have been regularly sending money in and out of to make it look active but every time I re-add it I still don't get the points. Hopefully 1 more week will be enough...

    Yes, I got invited at the end of one of their surveys. I wouldn't have done it even if I had a compatible device, which I do not.
