Ciao survey crowd now taking the complete p***?

martin57

Hello everybody,

can you really believe this from an email I received from them today?

"If you complete our easy 30 minutes survey, you will be paid £0.10 for your participation and in addition, you will be entered into a prize draw with the chance to win an amazing £25,000"

I mean who do they think we are, complete dimwits altogether. They do send the odd survey for maybe 50p to £1 but in my opinion doing the above which they are now doing on a daily basis is a complete insult to those who have being their loyal survey clients in the past.

regards

I gave up on them a long time ago. They are a total waste of space and anyone who would waste 30 minutes of their life doing a survey that pays only 10p must be mad

I agree. I delete all the surveys paying 10p if they take more than a minute or two. ciao are taking the p***

That used to be such a great way of making money. Most of the email ones I get are 51p for 30/40 mins

oh i agree its so rubbish the reminders still come into my inbox but i delete them now

maybe wheat they are trying to do is to weed out the people who actually will do it for 10p then they can just send them surveys for that amount therefore saving ciao money while the more sensible ones get the reasonable paying surveys.

I hate ciao surveys - most of them lately have said that I wasnt suitable either that or they want to upload dodgy software onto my computer:mad: I start the survey if it looks like it might be interesting and then after a few questions says sorry I dont fit their requirements. I have now started deleting them like the silly Toluna surveys.

I shall stick to YouGov because at least they pay 50p and the GFK media ones to do with tv watching, you do get £5 Amazon vouchers which come in handy.

lol i agree they are quite low down on my list now, i once got one from them and is asked are you * my name*?
i clicked yes and they said sorry but you do not qualify for this survey!! so why did i not qualify was it because i was the person i siad i was and i was reading my own e mails

I've had around £100 from Ciao in the past as well as a few freebies to try out, but like most people now, I tend to delete them without looking.

I must admit that my favourite one was a £15 payout and loads of free chewing gum to try - not many of them about now :-(

I don't bother with them anymore.

10p for 30 mins seems to be the normal for them now which is too small an amount for so much time.
