Facebook Credits can be used for in-game (or app) purchases for any game on Facebook (example Farmville). I got a Facebook Credits card for Christmas and I used the points to buy virtual goods for 3 of the games I play. Check out the value of the points though compared to getting a voucher, sometimes its a poor deal.

Hi

Yeah I checked out the value of them and it actually works out as slightly more if you get facebook credits for 30000 toluna points you get 100 facebook credits which is 6.38 and for 80000 toluna points you can get the £15 shop vouchers so for every 80000 points you would actually get about £2 more of facebook credits not a lot I know but atleast its not a lot less either!!! :rotfl:

Also if anyone gets a chance could they jump on and do my opinions they close to getting me points

Facebook credits are no longer part of Toluna rewards, I am guessing they had many issues with them. Also i will no longer be doing the opinions and polls side of toluna after they have posted they are no longer carrying on the social reward program (no points).

Do you mean, they're not having the quick sponsored polls any more? Not giving any points for them I mean?

Since they changed the site it is very confusing. From what I can gather, the 15 point sponsored polls are under Explore, then Sponsored Content. Quick Surveys and My Surveys seem to be somehow merged into 'Survey Centre'.

I really dislike the new site - it's so hard to qualify for surveys and the it's so hard to get any points! It's such a shame as I relied on Toluna for monthly vouchers

UPDATE: Problem solved once I used Internet Explorer rather than Google Chrome so if you're having the problems described below you might want to try that. Weirdly I'd just started using Chrome for all surveys after finding it was actually more compatible than Explorer now.

Is anyone else unable to log in today? This is the first time I've used the new version of the site and I've noticed the "Explore > Polls" link comes up as an error page.

Definitely using the right username and password. I went to the "forgotten your password?" page and it kept bringing up a new security phrase even though I'd got the previous one right. I'm still getting survey invites to my registered e-mail address.

Members must be leaving Toluna because my followers have gone down, I am only staying for the surveys now. I have £90 worth of Deb vouchers waiting on.

I hate the new site! The sponsored polls take an absolute age to load and answer! It's really slow and clunky! Great big text like that is going to take forever to load isn't it? It's so jerky! I was just going to do the sponsored polls until I get the rest of my points added before cashing them in and resigning, but it's too much like hard work now. Why people are always trying to change things that are already working fine is beyond me! Photobucket is another example; always changing their website - and not always for the better either!

Once I'd solved my login problem yesterday I had to abandon the site after it crashed a couple of times. I can also see doing the sponsored polls is going to take longer (even without the slow loading time) because you can't answer lots on one page - you need to go back to get to the next poll.

I agree about the new site being much slower. On the positive side though you can see the points mounting up after completing the short polls, also can see surveys pending after completed. Much easier than scrolling to the bottom of very long list.

Still very low incentives for completing surveys - you have to do almost 30 surveys paying 3000 points each, to receive (eventually, after many months) a £15 reward.

I still do some Toluna surveys but don't spend too much time there these days.
