YouGov Surveys

Hi, want to put it out to see if this is a general issue.
I am near the 5k points and since end April 25 not had any surveys to get me to the magic 5000 so I can cash in. Seems to recall many moons ago the same thing happened. Takes too long to even get close but now I'm cynical thinking they are doing this on purpose. They keep saying it's all down to random selection but guess what used to get 2 to 3 at least a month now nothing. Anyone else?

    I think I only get one survey every few weeks now, but I’m nowhere near the 5000 points anyway. I’m going to be dead by the time I do get there. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
  • Every few weeks is good. You will get close to around 4500 then it will due too 😁

    Never noticed any difference when I used to do them (stopped years ago because the effective hourly rate was so low)

    No issues for me when I get near to £50, have cashed out dozens of times, it really is just a case of you'll get one when you get one, they are very professional.

    I redeemed 5000 points in December 2024 and prior to that July 2023.
    I'm currently on 2200 points and my last survey was a month ago.
    I'll check again in a year's time!
