    These are the companies I do jobs for :

    Ipsos - relatively quick payers, lots of restaurant/pub meal review jobs, a few financial ones too. They CAN be a little strict on your submissions but thats fine.

    Tern - I do eye tests for these, plus a few jewellery stores and tech enquiry jobs.
    Very quick payers.

    Proinsight - quite a variety of jobs here but they don't pay till the 15th of the following month so it can be a 6 week wait. They're not great at answering queries either.

    Others include :

    Retail Active,
    MSL Ltd,
    JKS.

    Good luck!
