Just signed up I already do Red C, I’ll see if acumen is any good

How many survey sites do people do? what are the other good ones? Maybe I’ll stick with just two I don’t know yet

I have been doing their surveys for about a year, i am up to 40 euro and suddenly i am not getting anymore or you get half way through and they say they have enough particpants.

With red c you need to be on the ball and open the survey as soon as the email lands as it’s the most popular survey site going, I get roughly 4 pay outs a year from them and I sure others on this thread are about the same.
Surveys have really dried up lately due to covid19 but red c are still sending them out, I got a €4 one from them yesterday - don’t give up you will hit the target soon

Are you not being a little impatient with RED C?They said it would take 1 to 2 weeks.I'm waiting myself for the few bob but it's only 11 days since they took the
€50 from my account.Hopefully it'll be in our e mail box by Friday.Then my problems will start with trying to get it from my E mail to my pocket.Will probably looking for help then.

Anyone else have this problem. Redc was down all day today for me. Then finally lets me open it now and I see that I'm missing credits. I had €38 point balance and €4 pending from a survey. But now it's showing that I only have €35. Something seems off here....or is it just me... I've emailed them.. don't know if they'll answer

Yes was down for me too,but back up now.Some of the surveys lately are slightly different(partner surveys they call them) and dont credit for up to seven days.
You need to have the survey number from your missing survey when contacting them.

I had a crap survey today from red c offering a Euro, there was a load of qualifying questions and then it went onto retail and rejected me from the survey
About ten minutes to get booted out was annoying

I got that one too but it let me proceed. You should email them since they only paid out for five minutes technically and you were longer than that just to get kicked out.

literally just did that one, got booted out after about 5 minutes

Thank you for trying to participate in this survey. Unfortunately, we have interviewed sufficient people of your demographic profile and on this occasion we cannot allow you to complete the survey.

Btw, has anyone gotten the digital code from REDC yet? should be this week yeah?

Thanks

Me neither. This is from their April newsletter:

For the duration of the crisis, we will be sending out
your rewards in digital/virtual card format. This is the
quickest way for us to get you rewards at this time. The
digital cards will be sent to you by email from RED C,
the cards created by EML Payment Group. The cards
can be used for any payment that can be made online
or over the phone, in exactly the same way as a
physical card, but can’t be used in store. Please let us
know if you would rather wait for the cheque which will
be sent after the lockdown restrictions have been
lifted.

Looks like people will have a choice, either electronic or wait for the cheque.

I haven't got that e mail yet.Does that mean I will be able to transfer the €50 to my Pay Pal account or my Credit Union account?

Sorry,I see it's from the April newsletter.

Got a survey from Triaba this afternoon for €1.50,20 mns and completed it.Got the same survey from RED C a few minutes ago for €3.Was screened out (I understand why).Most of these sites seem to be sending similar surveys.Hard to know which one to do first ?

REDC always pay better, but sometimes their surveys might pop in after they come from the less generous survey sources.

You were unlucky.Usually a €1 Red C survey only takes 5 mns.
