If a YouGov survey is an Oracle survey, does this mean it's a prize draw survey only and not for points?

    Yes, Takes so long to get a cheque on that just by doing the points ones - I also give prize draw ones a miss on every site - All the entries I have had on multiple sites and never won anything - I am wondering if anyone actually wins?

    Someone has to win else it is fraud on their part. Id never do it unless its super short though.

    Every survey worth points, so if it is an Oracle survey or something else you're gonna have your points,
    have a good chance.
    I'm afraid this is not true, if you look at the small print of the Oracle surveys you will see the following:
    Upon completing the survey your account will show you have entered the prize draw. No points will have been taken from your account, the points for this survey are automatically allocated to the draw. There is no option to keep your points for this survey.

    Most of them are before a survey for points though.

    I've cashed out twice this year and back up to £21.75.

    Make sure you set it to send surveys as often as possible and keep an eye on it. If you miss a few it changes back to once a week/month rather than as often as possible :)

    I missed a few lately but its still set to "as often as possible". Still only getting 1 survey every 10-14 days & even then it could be a pointless prize draw entry survey.

    Nowhere near a 1st cashout even though i joined it last november

    It takes me about 3 years to get enough points for the £50 payout. I do every survey I get sent

    How do you set it to send surveys as often as possible? I do everything I get sent but its never more than twice a week.

    I can only assume you are thinking of prolific. Like others I do every survey sent and I am at 2200 points after about 6 months.
