    €101 from RedC (hit 50 today so probably won’t get cheque in 2019)
    €100 from MOBROG (fairly surprised at this!)
    €50 from Acumen
    €13 from Triaba
    €80 from Listener Insights (used to be Platform 1)

    Never joined IO or Opinion world, quickly gave up on Userneeds. Don’t suffer too much from duplicate surveys.

    Surprised on the MOBROG amount, fairly decent for short surveys. Acumen ones the best, the way they autofill the first 10 or so questions saves a good few mins per survey, but they’re quite sparse.

    €101 from RED C? Should that not be €100?

    i reach surveys are my favorite, they are never boring like the drink surveys and dont take long.

    You get 2 surveys a month one at the start and one at the end.earn 3 euro a month. You dont have to worry about not qualifying or getting kicked out half ways through

    Swagbucks is handy too and you can earn from your referrals. (And if anyone needs a referral)

    Anyone managed to get a reply from Ideas Panel recently? Ordered a £15 Amazon voucher with my points which has gotta be over the 4-6 weeks they say it will take for them to send you the reward but I can't get a reply from them. Emailed them several times now.

    I never email them but I ordered a £15 Amazon voucher from them around 2 months ago and still havent received it, but they always take ages to come so im not worried.

    Anyone waiting a long time on one4all from I reach? I redeemed a voucher on 11th. November but no sign of it. I suspect someone else got it and spent it at this stage.

    I'm not waiting on one but i remember waiting over a month before and with christmas maybe it's a little slower. i would email them if i were you. At least they reply, unlike Ideas Panel!

    IReach take an eternity to send the cards out. 6 weeks isn't unusual for them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 69,547 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    I'm waiting a few weeks also, not as long as you yet.

    WOW! The Last one I got from them was November 25th & whenever was clicked on, only ever showed:

    "Thank you for your participation. This survey is currently on hold. Please check back later."

    I don't get much from them anymore, but I have had two in the last few days, bringing me to a total of (at least) €57. January should be a bit of fun!

    On the other hand, my MOBROG account got deleted or something last Thursday/Friday.

    I was trying to change the password after I found that I was unable to log in, and the page kept telling me that there was no account associated with the email address. I sent a ticket. Yesterday, set up a new account with the same address, logged in, and sent a ticket while logged in because the first one hadn't been replied to. I got a reply to both tickets after that stating that there was an issue with upgrades to the site and my account would be back.

    Earlier on, I received an automated email telling me that my account has been deleted, and that I should click a button to stop this happening if I wanted to keep the account. All that led to was the contact form, so I sent a third ticket. I still can't log in. :(:confused::(

    Got a €5,€4,€2 myself today.Pushed me over the €50 for January.Was kicking myself on the €4 one as I pressed Female in the gender question (I'm male) and was unable to go back and change that question.I just deleted the survey as I didn't want to do the survey classed as a female(I have nothing against females),I'm married to one).Could only lead to trouble with RED C if i did the survey.Still not too bad a cheque on the way in January.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,637 ✭✭✭OmegaGene


    Nice and easy one from red c today about Vodafone paid a fiver
    Looks like Vodafone are feeling the pressure from gomo going by the survey

    No tricks to RED C.Some months I go a week without any survey but then I get a couple one day and one every second day.The odd time I get three or even four in a day(but not often).I do get screened out of some of their surveys too(as I assume many others do).

    I find them the best company to deal with by far

    It all depends on your profile as to what surveys you get from them

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,567 ✭✭✭Irish_rat


    Okay so I just started taking the surveys, I have signed up for redc and IO. I find IO very irritating and the surveys a hard slog.

    Any more I should go for? RedC has been excellent so far. Very relevant to everyday life opinions.

    Io is a pain in the hole. Keep getting screened out and offered ridiculous half hour surveys for a euro.

    Red C is good if infrequent

    30 minutes for €1? I don't get those ones, thank goodness.

    Had three today, including €6 for 20 minutes.

    Try Triaba Pannel.Much improved lately,surveys now show on your homepage and are plentyful.You can also cash out on pay Pal when you get to €5.

    Agree about IO,not what it was.Got an offer for a €4 survey from IO a week or so ago,but it would take two hours! Not for me anyway.

    I started doing surveys on surveytime.io. They pay out $1 immediately (PayPal, Bitcoin or another type I can't recall) for each completed survey. I tend to only attempt surveys indicating 10 minutes duration or less and since Dec 15th have received $11 from them.

    Nothing since mid December - and the last 3 from before that screened me out :( I responded immediately they dropped into my inbox, so it seems the Profile set up means little or nothing.

    Everyone does the same with red c because they are good payers, so chances are it was filled up quickly

    Nothing since before Christmas for me either, I was stuck at €48 even though I'd done a €4 survey on the 20th, it didn't get added to my balance til the new year so just missed out on a cheque this month. Damn it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,637 ✭✭✭OmegaGene

    I'm still owed €5 since the 17th but thankfully my account was bang on €50 for the 1st of the month. It's so frustrating when you're just shy even though you know it will come eventually!

    That's unusual for RED C.In my experience a payment for a survey is added to my account a couple of minutes after I complet a a survey.

    Yeah, I thought the same but I think it was a partner survey, I remember going back to the survey email just before the end of the month and clicking the link again to see if the survey was still active. Red C surveys usually pay instantly, that's true.

    Yeah it happens quite often but people only notice when they are nearing the €50 mark
