Has anybkdy heard from Red C recently?
I didn't even get the email from them to say that the cheque was being posted and had I changed my address.

That's an odd one all right.

I'm 25 cents off a voucher for Irish Opinions but no surveys for me for the last week. Is it quiet with surveys around this time of year?

I'm the same,got two from IO in 10 days and screened out of both.Still like you .25 short.Still have the thought I could have been de activated for the third time due to the scarcity of surveys.But IO seems slow for everyone else here.

No. Mid way they come up with some drivel like "it can be easier to describe a product to someone who shares our tastes. Enter the first name of a friend or family member who shares your tastes."

If I put in a fictitious Gerry it proceeds, put in Pat or Jim and it chucks me out.

Well keep it simple,keep putting Gerry in.Me,i have always put my wife Nuala in those questions and never had a problem.

That kind of goes without saying.

Why? What's the problem with putting a family member's first name in?I do it all the time.

Another one today and I was screened out. Last week I had one they actually had sent out to me before so I didn't participate in it again in case it was a trick.

The same survey from the same provider means it's a sentiment tracker. They specifically want you to answer again. Only applies when it is definitely the same site.

I was worried I'd be blocked so I didn't complete it again.

I thought you advised to not do the same survey twice?As it seems to be one of the reasons to get you terminated.

From different survey sites. The same survey site will be deliberate

Looks like my account with IO may have fallen into the demon deactivated hole, as I haven't had a survey in August.

Must drop them an email about it.

Well I was wondering the same thing up to two days ago.Then got three in the past two days.And a few posters were saying Io was very slow lately.
Had to stop one as during the survey it switched to a different topic about my work and my workmates.As I am unable to work(and stated so at the start)I just didn't answer any of those questions and just deleted it.
But give it a few days as some surveys are starting to come again.

I wouldn't, they told me i was indefinitely suspended for not much of a reason considering i was only with them 2 weeks before the surveys dried up

Asked them about it and got the runaround, so i wont be using them again. Wasnt too bad though, managed to get 20Stg in amazon vouchers for my stint and had around 1.25 in there before it dried up.

It’s possible to get a tenner a week from irish opinions if you have the time

Postgrad10

Got one today so now over the 10 euro and have redeemed it. I think it's just been a slow couple of weeks with them.

I was doing the surveys they provided. Checked in around 5 or 6 times a day and would always get one in the morning at around 10am and another at lunchtime and again in the late evening between 8 and 10

I got one for €4 about 10 days ago - it wouldn't submit at the final screen. Luckily, I took a screen shot and emailed them. I got my €4 in the end.

Worth doing the same if it comes to that for you.

I started it and they said it was a follow up survey to one I have completed before so I ditched it, didn’t want to take a chance on it and get banned

You should have done it. They want you to do the 2nd survey.
I completed a survey yesterday for another company and received a follow up survey soon after.

There was a 1200 point survey on Userneeds about half an hour ago. I hadn't been invited to it beforehand, so it might be worth checking if it's there for the rest of yis!

I wasn’t chancing an hour survey for €4 when they mentioned revisiting some questions I’ve answered previously
I did 4 shorter ones and got €6 so I’m happy

I've just had an email from the "Ask Me Pay Me" panel about joining a new survey group for people who "live in, work in, or ever visit Dublin".

It's called "Your Dublin, Your Voice", here's the signup link: http://bit.ly/ydyvreg

There's a draw on for 500 Euro worth of prizes, but only until the 29th.

Got a ResearchNow (IO) survey via RedC there. Only doing RedC and Acumen these days as I don't have the time for the rest and I don't see the point in undercutting myself for the same work either.

It had a sanity check at the start where it asked had I bought a "Wilmington Instagram-enabled Microwave" in the past 6 months. Handy way to get rid of some bots and also the muppets who just lie along to get the payout. Google auto-suggests the phrase as clearly loads of people have searched to see if its actually real!

Ireland - I think they get posted direct from One4All in Malahide.

Can you not just get it emailed to you?
