    It’s annoying me as I’m stuck on €9.75

    Did the first one from IO in two weeks for 50c yesterday.Not added to my account and no record of doing it on my survey history page! What the hell is going on with IO???
    That's quite normal. Surveys don't credit, or show on the history, until they are closed.

    It's also a bank holiday weekend.

    It's not a though. I credit has always applied for me within a minute or two or even a refresh of the page. I'm stuck at 10.50 but must be due another 7 by now at least.

    Credited by IO now for the chunk of surveys from the past 5 days.


  • Registered Users Posts: 349 ✭✭malcy


    Email from IO just came in.
    Thank you for your email.

    We are aware of some technical issues with payments not being credited successfully when members have completed surveys.

    If you have successfully completed a survey and you have not received your payment, please note we are working to ensure these payments will be reflected in your account in the coming days.

    Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

    Thank you for your patience.

    As expected Irish opinions paid up early this morning

    Hit the €50 mark over the weekend on RedC. It's been a busy start to the year!

    I’ve done five surveys over the weekend and haven’t been paid for any since the 15th, probably waiting to be paid by the customer when the survey is finished
    Got the 50c for that survey this morning.And a couple more surveys from IO.Maybe it's sorted "again".

    Sorry Finley Tiny Fir,but I have to agree with Malc below,as I am usually credited after a minute or so.But my precious 50c was credited today.So all's fine again with IO(for a few days anyway).ha,ha.

    Anybody use Apinio? I get little from them but the log in is throwing up a 404 error for a while now.
    No,never heard of them.I'm wary of being on too many sites as duplicate surveys can cause trouble,as we all know.

    So I'm now about two months into my survey work and I have to say that I'm happy enough with how it's gone. I have included a screengrab of my earnings so far below.

    Respondent has been the most worthwhile in terms of time vs money. The values listed below are minus 5% charge, but other than that I'm getting $40 to $60 for a half hours work. There are a couple of referral payments below not included in the below totals. I get $20 per referral when the person you refer takes a survey.

    Prolific is good and the sterling always has a good conversion rate, but you just have to keep your eye out for a survey in the evening. The total below is sent via Paypal, but you have to pay the small Paypal fees.

    Amazon Mturk is what it is. While the rate of pay vs work is very poor, you can get some nice payouts late at night. The value below is then transferred to Amazon.com, where I have made some purchases. Amazon are good in that they can calculate the tax due on an Irish delivery, so you can use your gift-card balance to pay it.

    What about Google Test and Global test market?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32,688 ✭✭✭✭ytpe2r5bxkn0c1


    I thought Global Test Market no longer covered Ireland.

    I think they are now incorporated in to Lifepoints.

    Did anyone else get a fairly painful €5 from RedC about telecoms companies - Sky/Virgin/Eir etc? It went down to minute detail, asking how I feel about particular features at particular stages of the buying process. People don't really get that involved with these companies. We just want a good deal and an easy transaction. These morketing guys seem to revel in overcomplicating it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,340 ✭✭✭OmegaGene


    But are you afraid of virgin ?
    If eir was a friend what kind of friend would it be ?

    I'm developing a phobia of incels with guns and those replica katanas they all seem to have.

    Not my friend! :mad::mad::mad:

    I'm experiencing no abnormal delays with vouchers by post and, best of all, Amazon vouchers come within 30 seconds.


  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭laoise09


    Anyone have any experience of P1 Surveys?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,427 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman


    No, but I got am email from them yesterday calling me by the wrong name and when I went to put in my email address I got a pop up telling me the site wasn't secure so I'd be wary.


  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭laoise09


    Yea I got the same email calling me Celine. Might give it a miss.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,427 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman


    Lol. I'm Audrey apparently. They mustn't be doing their market research very well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭Sabre0001


    I am simply, B

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,759 ✭✭✭SmallTeapot


    I got the same email...... i just selected unsubscribe. Any idea where they got our email addresses? The email mentioned I recently completed the 'Dublin music survey'..... and would I be interested in joining their panel


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,743 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel
