Surveys

In the month of February I had an amazing amount of survey invites......did anyone else get loads?
I was able to complete about a dozen......we'll see what happens about payment!
It would appear to be much more lucrative than review writing....BUT....don't think that's really in the spirit of us reviewers.
Must say though that at the moment, 'cos life is being a b*tch it's suiting me down to the ground.

I have had four tonight!

One didnt work, and got booted out of one! So two out of four aint bad

I had a couple of surveys in Feb but didn't qualify for any, was a very quiet month for Ciao surverys or other companies. Normally get loads of Global Testmarket and even they were thin on the ground. But at least I managed to accumulate enough points with them for another payout. I'm not too keen on the Ciao surveys, they don't pay anything at all when they kick you out and they are very few and far between.

Sometimes I just delete them as soon as I see them. They either tell me I'm 'not what their looking for', or I can't comeplete it without a PC using Internet Explorer, or something else annoying. Maybe I'm unlucky, but hey, you guys can all have the payouts.

Ciao Surveys are one of the few things I still use IE for, I rarely use it but not all sites are supported by Firefox so I need to hold on to it.

Internet Explorer was officially discontinued for Mac a couple of years ago in version 5, and hasn't had a major update for 7 years. Some surveys even say you can't complete them on a Mac.

Just makes me grumble sometimes that companies still rely on what I see as an outsider in the web-browser market.

I've had more in the past few weeks than in the previous six months. My guess is lots of companies got this years research budgets approved and are doing a lot of testing - I've had some rubbish but also some really good ones too. Lots about films, lots about credit cards too.

I get too many to actually complete in a day, most days.

I seem to go through periods of getting loads of them, A couple of months ago i got loads of them and qualified for a lot now i seem to be getting none!

On the otherhand I know seem to be getting loads from Valued opinions instead

Oooh...I like the Valued Opinion ones....they pay well!

yep I like them too.

Always good for My Amazon.co.uk fund.

Had another from Ciao this morning, it must be my week!!

I hate all those IT ones though...you know the ones that want you to spill your corporate purchasing stuff..for 50p!!

I completed 2 in Feb, but had about 6 others which I didn't qualify for. Lisa x
