    if you’re on prolific then you have time to monitor the site for whenever surveys pop up then yes you can make that amount.

    But they did have a waiting list and the surveys tend to get full within minutes so it’s the luck of the drawer as to what is there when you are free.
    you could also be liable for tax for anything over £1000 a year, if you have to do the simple self assessment.

    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.

    Yes - I usually make about 100 - 200 a month doing surveys.

    I use Prolific, Opinium, Onepoll, You Gov and Populous live

    Most of my earnings come from Prolific - the other survey sites, I only tend to get a payment a few times a year - but it all adds up. It does vary on Prolific how much I get each month - I usually get at least £100 a month, but very occasionally that goes up to £250.
