    A. There should be no need for such specific identification of respondents.

    B. They are in no way going to check.

    I gave neither full address nor Eircode and told them so in the comments section.

    the info is not relevant or needed for the survey and i left a comment to tell them exactly that, being truthful is over rated in surveys sometimes, i think people need to read some of the questions very carefully because they sneak in strange ones like

    do you pay for a tv subscription ?
    do you use iptv ?
    do you illegally watch movies ?
    do you stream sports for free ?

    i dont trust some of the surveys tbh

    Exact same happened. Ended up At the end on a landing page with about 20 different languages saying you’ve already completed or accessed it. Probably shouldn’t link to these unreliable partners if they can’t guarantee a fair chance.

    Just got the €4 for that survey from "outside partner" that went funny at the end this evening.

    Out of interest, what the hell gets people through that RedC survey that asks if you've bought stuff from a list of products (that has huge overlap with Unilevers food product list, as it happens...). Its a slightly different list every time and I never get past it. Just interested as to what on earth its for!

    One survey since November still isn't good.Give it a while longer and see if you get some more.

    Same here.Got a €1 from RED C yesterday,said" last chance" to do this survey.Screened out,bummer.


  • Registered Users Posts: 856 ✭✭✭RoYoBo


    I received an email from Red C, supposedly to update my profile with a survey. No payment, but it asked about my vote in the GE and my preferences for forming a government. How is that related to my profile?

    Almost nothing from them has resulted in a payment over the last 3 months ...

    I got the same. It's funny because I was trying to do a paid survey before the election that I got kicked out off after I told who I was voting for!


  • Registered Users Posts: 68,116 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    In that case there is likely a party trying to dig in to the voting reasons for another party

    Got the €3 fast food one, spent 15 or so minutes answering it, last question I answered was on income and then got served with the "Unfortunately, we have interviewed sufficient people of your demographic etc" notice. What absolute nonsense!

    Strange one that alright.Usually with RED C the income band question comes at the beginning.

    Usually my point balance updates shortly after I complete a survey (which I know is unusual as it warns that points aren't added til after survey closes). It's finally doing what it's supposed to do so my balance has remained the same after the most recent two :( I'm over the €50 mark for this month's payout anyways, but I just like to be sure that everything is up to date and I don't have to keep an eye on rightful balance.

    you can trust red c they will pay but sometimes there is a delay depending on the customer or if it is a partner survey

    I've been trying to get to my first 50 quid from Red C for years now.

    I never seem eligible for the current surveys.
