    I joined Toluna a few days ago and I'm really chuffed with it! So far I have been invited to join the Juicy Brain Innovation panel to take part on a Sky project with a handsome payout and today I was invited to do a Tropicana survey regarding a new range of orange juice... at the end of the survey, it asked me whether I'd be interested in trialling the products. Free Tropicanas, yes please! :)

    And you don't read the bit at the start which says it's confidential as to which brands you're talking about?

    i'm still waiting for love to shop vouchers i ordered at the start of april as well. :(

    on a double whammy i lost 67000 points because they expired :(:( :mad::mad:

    i hadnt realised that the points expire after 16 months. i think they just have had quite a few people complaining as they now say

    "following our members' suggestions, we have added a new feature on the site which announces members about the number of points which is about to expire in the middle of the month. To see if you have points which will expire at the end of this month, please enter your account, go to the "Your Points" section and at the bottom of the page you will be shown how many of your points will expire at the end on the month.

    In order to see more details regarding the new points expiration policy, I kindly ask you to refer to the blog post from March 7th, 2011 http://ukblog.toluna.com/2011/03/07/more-great-reasons-to-redeem-your-points-update-to-expiration-policy/."


    so redeem them little and often which is annoying as i would really like to save them up for a special event :(

    Glad ur liking toluna so far but a word of warning - they got me to sign up to the tropicana thing and ive yet to have anything to trial - that was over four months ago. also keep a note of any trial and rewards you are due for them because i have not always had mine the past. and a word of warning they do pay out on vouchers but if your planning on saving them for xmas then make sure you cash out a good few months in advance!

    I've just been given an email invitation to join Toluna through the "Myoffers" website.

    Firstly, is it safe and legit as they are asking for my address details to activate my membership. Secondly, is it worth it and what do you get for completing the surveys?

    Cheers,
    Cocker:)

    hey. toluna is an on the level site - if your worried about signing up through myoffers then sign-up with the site directly. they ask you for your address because they need it to send you out stuff to sample from time to time and also to send your vouchers to you. you need 80,000 for each voucher. the points and vouchers can take months to appear and there are other sites like surveynetwork and mysurvey that actually pay out quicker and pay cash. hope that helps :p

    Just had 35K worth of points added, I was also shocked one of my polls as over 850 votes this is the first time one of my polls in 3 years has gone over 300 votes, This is in a matter of days.

    Saying you're interested in a trial isn't the same as being signed up for it. You're expressing an interest in being part of it then you sit back and hope you are picked. That's been the same across a few survey sites that I've done.

    They asked me to trial some Copella apple juice a few months ago, even told me what day it would arrive. It never turned up, they ignored my email asking where it had got to, meanwhile they bombarded me with emails asking me for feedback on the product I never received :p
