maty j 6 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 (edited) Off work ill so thought I'd get this up for anyone that's interested. I've been doing a few online surveys for a while now. You don't get big bucks for doing them but they don't take too long and you can choose which ones you want to take etc. I've done one that asked me one question and I got a quid for It. Fair enough a quid Isn't an awful lot but for a few seconds work? I tend to do them as I'm reading the different boards, just keep flicking between tabs. One company Is valuedopinions.co.uk They tend to offer more surveys and products that need testing. I received a product this morning that I'll be testing over the next week or so but they tend to offer more questionnaire type surveys. Valuedopinions pay you In gift vouchers so not to everyone's taste but you can choose from about 20 different companies to redeem them at. I tend to have tesco vouchers as they do everything there. The other company Is yougov. You've probably seen In the papers "a recent yougov survey revealed......" They tend to do more questions on the economy, how you feel about how the state of the world and then they ask you a few questions on different products. They tend to be a bit more boring but you get a cheque for cash once you have got 50 quid In your account. Sounds like a lot of surveys and It Is but you're not going to get rich by doing them but every little helps. If anyone's interested the links are valued opinions and yougov If you signing up to yougov follow that link and I'll get referral payment for every survey you take. This won't be deducted from your payment for taking the survey! Once you have registered you can refer others and then you will also get this referral payment for every survey they take. As I say It's not a lot of cash but It all counts. Hope It helps someone out and If you need anymore info let me know. Edited May 14, 2009 by maty j Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maty j 6 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 I've only ever had that on the valued opinions surveys Manda and not very often. I get borded sometimes and then just click random options The majority arn't too bad though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the fezz 44 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 my misses used to do them , they dont pay out till you get to £50 mark, but its ok for just a few moments of your time here and there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maty j 6 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 That's all I use them as, A little extra cash here and there. It doesn't take me long as I'm sitting here flicking back and too through the forums to have the survey on another tab. It's only the yougov that pay out when you hit the 50 quid mark but then again they pay out cheques direct to your bank account rather than gift vouchers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rainmaker 7 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 I'm a member of both but prefer LightSpeed Panel. It pays out ever £5, £10 etc (you choose when to cash in). You can withdraw cash via PayPal, but I prefer Amazon vouchers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maty j 6 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 What's lightspeed like? I've never heard of It before. What's the surveys like for the payment etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rainmaker 7 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 What's lightspeed like? I've never heard of It before. What's the surveys like for the payment etc? Roughly speaking, a "point" is a penny. You get points for most surveys, some (the longer ones) are usually more. Basically you can expect to do 10 or 12 surveys for a tenner.

Rainmaker 7 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Couple of hours on average mate, but of course it varies. Sometimes you 'drop on' a survey that only lasts 2 minutes but pays a couple of quid! Usually though they're bog standard 10 to 15 minute ones paying or so points. Well worth doing imho.
