    Same for me. Confirmed details and all with them - I am assuming they are coming today or tomorrow.

    Qualified for my first REDC survey in weeks today about online piracy. I don't know what kind of results they're expecting though; I doubt even people who do it are going to admit it (I'm an angel of course ;) )

    I admitted I did it before.Wanted to see the US Open /PGA golf.Gave up on it though as picture was terrible,always crashing and loads of adds for other sites.I just gave up on them.

    First red c survey in weeks. It was €5 they said 25 minutes but it only took 12. Just a few general topics, voting, transport, broadband. Easiest €5 ever. It wasn't even that I rushed through it, there just wasn't that much to it.

    Are the products actually apples? :pac: or Apple snack products (like bars and the like)... as I’m worried they won’t stay fresh if it’s the former...

    Acumen send them by email. I only signed up on February 8th and I got my 3rd €10 reward today. I find them great and just sorry I didn't sign up sooner. I don't get a survey every week but them some weeks I might get 2. So don't worry if you have not got one yet, they will start coming soon.im getting €10 each week from Irish Opinions, I don't wait for an email I'm in and out numerous times during the day checking. I got a red c today too and it was my first in a month

    Used to always get a survey from RED C on a Friday myself ,but routine has changed in the past couple of months.I get surveys on a Saturday or even a Sunday now.Who knows how these survey companies work?But RED C are overall one of the best ones.They are slow at times but then you get a good few suddently.

    I think if you had say 10 euro on your last card, you can add it to your new card.

    You add the card to your PayPal wallet, send the €50 as a gift to another PayPal account either a second one or someone you trust and they send it back to you and it then ends up in your balance and then you can transfer it to your bank account or leave it in PayPal whichever you prefer

    The internet isn’t for everyone

    Hi folks.
    Don't know if anyone can help with this strange issue I've encountered when trying to sign up with Acumen.
    I go through the sign up process but never get a confirmation email. I've done it a few times over the last 4 months or so. I even contacted them but they were of no help. Anyone any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    it is worth noting you need to use the gift/friends and family option on sending the funds or charges will be deducted

    Search in your emails for conor. I had the same issue for about 2 weeks I could not figure it out. Then I just checked and an email had come in the first time I signed up and I had missed it. I just clicked on it and verified my account and have had no issues since.
