Paid Survey sites - Irish Opinions, Acumen, RedC etc

Did anyone else get the invite to a further Red C panel? I wasn't 100% sure about it, but I progressed through the form, and got screened out.

Hi!

As a member of RED C Live, we in RED C rely on you to tell us and our clients what you think and we value your contribution. One of our clients is currently recruiting for a new short term online community separate to RED C Live and we’d like to invite you to take part. This community will last for about 6 months and as a member, you will be invited to take part in two or three studies per month. By signing up, you will be under no obligation to actively participate, but you will be entered into a prize draw for a €500 prepaid Mastercard. For each study you do actually participate in as part of this community, you will earn points and through the build-up of these points will be in with a chance to get further prizes including cinema tickets, shopping vouchers and gift cards. As a member of this new community, you will have the opportunity to share your opinions with our client and directly influence the products, decisions and direction they take. What do you need to take part?


1) To complete the short survey attached to make sure you "fit the bill" of who we are looking for.

2) Not be camera shy! We may need you to send through some short video pieces/share images throughout the community.

3) Be open and creative! We are looking for people who are happy to express their opinions and share their points of view. You can do this by getting involved in discussion boards and by leaving additional commentary, when prompted.

Does this sound like something that you would like to be part of, if so just click below and we will get started.
Please select one only

Yes, I'd love to take part

I think redc knows when I'm not free to take surveys. Quite a few emails the last couple of days! Hope ye're having more luck!

Does anybody here do the GFK media surveys?
They haven't done the prize draws for January or February yet!

Mountjoy Mugger

They did do the January one. They are "working on" the other draws, according to Rita.
Updates and notifications to current balance are becoming less frequent - wait almost a month for update to previous month, etc.

I'm seriously thinking of pulling the plug.

I just feel the effort isn't worth it with them any more. The surveys are pure boredom.

I signed up for Irish Opinions a Paid Survey service a 6 months ago... the service seems like a bit of a scam... just to quote what they offer you:



The scam seems to be the number of surveys they send you never reaches the €10 euro mark. Since I signed up I have only offered 4 surveys that made a total of €7.. Anyone else noticed this?

I just signed up with them, and when I had completed, they told me they had enough, after wasting my time

ballina1953

used to find i got 6 or 8 surveys per week totaling about 10 euro per week and were pretty good to pay
they recently dumped me leaving me out of pocket for over 80 euro in credits

Whats the deal with acumen? I went to redeem a reward so it said that my 1000 points were pending, been pending for a few days now. It just seems a bit drawn out, IO give you the gift voucher almost instantly. Am I right in thinking that they're going to give me a voucher for allgifts and then im to use that voucher to get an actual voucher?

It can take them a week at times. Yes, a voucher for Allgifts to then buy a voucher. It's a bit tedious.

I thought I had been dumped by IO, but when I went into reactivate my account they did so and I was able to access my 60€

SmallTeapot

Completed a survey this morning on opinionworld; subsequently I had enough credit to cash out for an amazon e-voucher. Upon selecting the voucher, the site re-directed to the opinionworld T&Cs' and the following message appeared:

Your membership has been terminated as a result of the violation of the OpinionWorld Terms & Conditions. For questions, please, contact helpdesk@opinionworld.co.uk

Very annoyed tbh. I sent them an email requesting evidence of how I violated their terms and conditions..... and requested a Data Protection request for any data that their company has with regards to my personal information

Very annoyed/ disappointed :(

Weeks ago.

That survey is run frequently enough however I'd only ever do it through the same survey firm as they are tracking responses over time. Do it with different survey firms and you could easily find both accounts get blocked.

Yep they increased it a few weeks ago, something to do with PayPal charging them higher transaction fees. Ridiculous if you ask me.

Did anyone else get the Red C fiver one, with the maths quiz at the end? WTF? Are they trying to assess how smart you are so they can judge your answers accordingly?

I did before. It was an nightmare. I felt more pressure than doing my living cert. I was afraid I'd be screened out if I got an answer wrong.

I don't like the sound of that, I break into a cold sweat trying to remember how many people over and under 18 live in my household. Every single time.
