Paid Survey sites - Irish Opinions, Acumen, RedC etc

misstearheus · 23-05-2018 3:22am

Have just joined up to Swaaaaaaag... :cool::pac: It looks like my kind of thing.

Lots of bits n' pieces in it... Think I'll enjoy that Site. Am thinking of ending it with iReach and UserNeeds, as they seem to be very slow and low, and join up to this Acumen is it? that I see ye mention... Is Acumen any good, how does it fare out?

Questions! It seems to work okay for some of ye that have mentionned it, but is there ever any problems with cashing out smaller amounts of say Tesco and then paying to put all the values into one single total amount card?

Also I think someone has mentionned they paid for something with multiples of Vouchers / Cards. I'm very surprised that places let Customers do that! I know that Boots is very strict in-store about using Vouchers on Offers and One Voucher per whatever etc. ...

I’ve had 2 €3 offers from them but by the time I got chance to do them they were finished
Irish opinions seem to be the best for me
Tried swagbucks and got rid of it

Anyone know how long ideaspanel take to deliver their rewards(Amazon giftcard)? I don't know whether I should go do my Amazon order or wait until I get the reward to do it.

Mountjoy Mugger · 27-05-2018 8:48pm

Got a check and a survey.

Tipperary animal lover · 30-05-2018 12:33pm

got two €2 redc surveys today, after hitting the 50 point, looking back on my survey history I seem to hit the 50 point every three months

peewee_44 · 30-05-2018 3:32pm

I got one today off redc

pgj2015 · 30-05-2018 7:32pm

Irish opinions got back to me a few days ago about not sending me surveys in the last 5 weeks, said they would look into it, nothing since from them though.

I’m 2 weeks waiting on them to fix it. Emailed thhem yesterday to see what the stiry is - response back was “still waiting on IT to come back to her”

Very frustrating espec considering i’ve €20 waiting to be redeemed

Aceandstuff · 30-05-2018 10:56pm

Has anyone had loads of invites from MOBROG in the last week? I've done four or five surveys that I didn't immediately screen out of and have earned well over a fiver in the past few days. It makes a change from how they usually work...

...or don't.

pgj2015 · 03-06-2018 11:43am

which one4all cards need to be verified? is it ideas panel or ireach?

Waiting nearly 3 weeks for the issue with my IO account to be sorted. Still nothing. Anyone else have this issue?

OmegaGene · 04-06-2018 11:45am

I had a survey from red c and they asked if I would use a dongle for a speed test, why not I thought and then when it arrived they tell me it’s a 3 year speed test lol.
It pays €125 on completion but 3 years is a bit too long

Dongle is going back

I nearly had a survey finished when it just stopped last week, reported it took three days to come back, they saw the fault and credited me the money.

Mine seems to be an issue with my account. Cant do surveys or claim rewards for credit already on my account. Very annoying.

AndrewJRenko · 04-06-2018 5:41pm

DId anyone else have a problem with a long RedC one for Aer Lingus for a fiver? It wasn't the usual RedC interface. It went all the way through, then after the demographic questions at the end, I got; "Invalid login parameters" error message.

I've reported it by email, so we'll see what they come back with during the week?

Postgrad10 · 04-06-2018 11:21pm

Had that same issue. Have emailed them too.

Anyone ever had an issue getting a gift card from Irish opinions. Ordered one back in March and still no sign which is strange.

Tipperary animal lover · 05-06-2018 6:41pm

nothing from redc in six days any one get a survey lately

ripperman · 06-06-2018 1:16pm

I've been having the same issues with Irish Opinions. Couldn't claim rewards, wasn't getting notifications of new surveys etc. Like others I have been on to them about it for the last couple of weeks, and they kept saying they're looking into technical issues. This morning I got an email stating that my account has been indefinitely closed due to accuracy and attentiveness. Feels like a business trying to trim the fat and get rid of users with accumulated reward money? Anyone else get this? Think I'm done for good with the whole rewards for surveys thing.

ballina1953 · 06-06-2018 4:15pm

ripperman same thing happened me and lost over 80euro credit was really annoyed
find a lot of those survey get a fair amount of info free
you start a survey and when you in a bit and they have got information they say you are ineligable for it

OmegaGene · 06-06-2018 5:33pm

I would be really annoyed having €80 on hold
I collect every time I hit the €10 mark on irish opinions

Opinion world banned me for a breach of the rules and told me it was a mistake and they wouldsort it out
I’m still waiting

Red c seems to be a disaster for me I got €10 when I signed up and hardly hear from them anymore

ballina1953 · 06-06-2018 10:18pm

80 euro is not on hold is totally written off
said i gave them false information which was nt true
would nt indicate to me what the instances of false information were
seems to me they want to cull the members who have been there a few years and get a new batch in

i got the same email today, i never entered false information either, must have been with them around 6 years id say, its a lesson not to build up your credit on these sites, i only had 2 euro on my irish opinions account so, not too bothered about it all, they had boring enough surveys anyway, i find ireach have the most interesting surveys.

You could submit a Subject Access Request under the new GDPR regulations to get a copy of all data that they have about you. This might give you a chance to see the basis for their assessment.

Your e80 story is another good reason for cashing out as soon as you can, every time.

Tikithing · 07-06-2018 6:13pm

Do all gifts not offer argos vouchers anymore? Its a pain if they don't, I only do acumen and userneeds because I need argos stuff. Im not much interested in the other vouchers they offer, well, none of the ones that I can't get from IO a hell of a lot quicker.

If you want Argos vouchers try shop and scan pays about €70 a year with the chance to win more

jluv · 07-06-2018 11:53pm

Tried to print off 2 e codes to Penneys vouchers from IO. Error code. Got them resent. Still cant print. tried.to claim 2 more Vouchers from IO. Another error code. Have e mailed them...Annoying

peewee_44 · 08-06-2018 2:46am

I'm having a great run on redc had loads just got the €50

Got the same one aswel today. Total nonsense.

Luna Moon Hunter · 08-06-2018 3:32pm

Does anyone here have any experience with My Opinion Matters? Just wondering how long does it take for the rewards to arrive and are they physical gift cards or e gift cards? Also they don't seem to reply to queries at all, so I'm just wondering how others get on with them.

OmegaGene · 11-06-2018 10:21am

20 minute survey on mobile phones from irish opinions, got halfway through only to be told they have enough people thanks
Bloody annoying

Tipperary animal lover · 11-06-2018 2:42pm

since I hit the 50 points on redc 15 days ago just got one survey since and got the boot from it .... io still getting 2 day but find the gift cards are are very slow coming compared to a few months ago

OmegaGene · 11-06-2018 3:50pm

Red c is painfully slow at giving me surveys
Irish opinions so far is the best and the cards arrive in about a week, I’m getting tesco ones it won’t allow me to get penny’s ones for some reason

Got screwed by IO too.36.50 down the swanee.Been with them over 5yrs no problem.Suddently got dumped for "non attentiveness".A dic"head called Kai said I had "inconsistences" in my replies and was being shut down.Rubbish as I answered all surveys truthfully.Sent many e mails stating my case but got no reply.Checked on line and many people in same boat.Not good reviews for IO overall.
