It is now 11;45 am 

A survey arrived  in my inbox whilst I was checking emails at 11:34.

I started the survey at 11;36, got to 16% completed and was shut out.

I just don't know what to say about this anymore.

Just took one about rail travel and also got screened out at 16% but that was only the second real question

I haven't been offered one for about 6 weeks, maybe longer. With their high withdrawal rate, I feel that is wasted time I'll not be rewarded for.

Was sent 3 x £2 and 1 x £3 in the last 7 days - only not screened out of 1 x £2 but that was enough for another £50

Yes I've had three in the last week there are times when two or three weeks pass without one but doesn't happen very often.

Hoping the forthcoming election would increase the number of surveys. Sure it happened before but no sign yet!

I get regular surveys from YouGov, though I don't always complete them because I can sometimes make more completing them elsewhere as YouGov can tender them elsewhere if they need more respondents.

It's a pain to get to the £50 payout but sometimes, though it's rare, you can get the odd lucrative survey - I remember them asking me to watch the first episode of Rizzoli & Isles and I think they paid me £25 - it was an hour long but more than worth it.  That's going back a few years but it sticks in my mind because I went on to watch the series.

Just had another £50 from them and am now £5 towards the next despite being almost a week without phone and broadband (cheers BT).  Of the 30 plus sites I have used over the years they would be in the top 3 payers per hour along with pinecone and consumer pulse.

I've just reached £50. Looking at the history I am averaging about £50 per year. In view of the irritation I feel at being screened out more times than accepted, I have decided it is not worth continuing for what is only £4 a month.

I wonder on what basis they offer surveys, I redeemed £50 last month (got paid a fortnight ago) and I'm on 17 points already. Probably won't get any for a while now!

They can be quite random in their runs.
