    Has anyone had much luck with Ciao? I have been signed up for about a month and have made 20p on surveys as I never seem to be what they are looking for.
    With Ciao you are better writing reviews, you can make quite a bit that way, I used to just wait for surveys but they are never worth much.

    Its fascinating though - the husband seems not to be facing up to the problems - both sets of grandparents keep giving them food and money, yet they took ages to give up the RENTED car each at £450 a month, and THEN husband went out and bought another car.......... earlier in the prog. husband seemed to think he was being noble by having packed sandwiches for a train journey instead of buying them.......

    www bet2day .net

    is the actual web address for lotto24bingo which appears on the £1 site list (for anyone who hasn't managed to Google it successfully themselves!)

    Thanks for that Pandapaws, I was just about to give up. I've only played one site, but the only other ones I could find with the free play still on 'em kept telling me that my email address had already been used
    Ssshh - I might know about deals in/near Keswick

    Hiya

    Yep, thanks panda - I just tried the bet2day, didn't win, but with only £1 to play with, the chances go down of course. On to find the list of the £1 sites.

    On another note. A warning to stear clear of Wink Bingo! They have altered their t&c and you know have to deposit and play £20 of your own money before you can make a withdrawal!!

    The worst of it is that I had to deposit £10 of my own money in the first place so looks like I've lost that too as I'm not going to risk another £10!!

    On another note. Just had a full house and a line on cyberbingo and have come away with £33.26 profit. (This isn't a free bingo site as you have to deposit your own money so 'true' gambling!) :o

    As I've all but lost that tenner on Wink Bingo, I'm going to just count £23.26 as my actual profit for the challenge.

    Yesterday, I requested a payout from Rpoints for £21.09 and one from Topcashback for £1.12. :D Also expecting my Quidco payment in the next few days which will be £126.62. :j

    Total so far (including pending payments): £172.09

    Good start. Hope I can keep the momentum going this month now that the free bingo bubble has burst! :o

    Happy Mothers Day to all the Mums amongst us too!

    They've all worked fine for me, and when you sign up they don't ask for bank details, so it is a much quicker sign-up form. They all seem to have 5p games as well, so I generally just play 20 tickets on a 5p game once on each site. KC, just posted on your diary - you're doing fantastically at the moment, keep it up!!!

    Curveygirl, maybe it's worth getting a different email just for that purpose? Yahoo and loads of others give them out free, and it only takes a few seconds to sign up.

    About Ciao - I'm sick to the back teeth of getting emails from them saying they'll pay 23p for a 35 minute survey or something, BUT sometimes when I've nothing better to do, I do them anyway, and there is occasionally more to them than meets the eye: I've had 2 free cans of posh new toothpaste with 2 electric toothbrushes, a full bottle of fabric softener, and waiting for some dishwasher tablets to test as a result of their low paying surveys, and I got £20 for doing an online focus group that followed on from a Ciao survey, so while a lot of it is rubbish, occasionally they're worth doing.
