I have two IO vouchers which i am intending to keep till Christmas.I printed them out fine.But what's all this about "a challenge key"?I never heard of this until the past week?What's a challenge key?Are the two vouchers i have OK? Any advice would be apreciated.

Challenge key is security code and it’s on the original email, so the normal process would be to click the link and bingo the voucher is there but with a challenge key you need to copy and paste the key to access the voucher.
Originally Irish opinions were using the basic e voucher for Tesco but now the last two have the extra security feature.


Long story short if you clicked the link and printed your voucher you are fine

I've had no issue with the Irish Opinions Tesco vouchers at all. Just print them off and they work. I joined on May 18th I'm up to €53.50 now. I cash in every €10.

I hadn't received a survey off Irish Opinions in about a year, so I cancelled my account and reregistered. Since I did last Wednesday I've gotten €9.25.

I trialled signing up for every survey company I could online. I said I'd do a week going for every survey from €0.50 upwards. The end result was €50.09. Better than a kick in the arse. Pays a bill or two. I notice they never give you surveys on Sundays.

Not everyone on boards.ie will be affected - Irish opinions have loads of customers and we represent a tiny amount, the newest vouchers issued with no keys only started last week, I’ve cashed out €60 over the past three weeks and the vouchers have changed to the same system allgifts.ie use


As for Sunday’s and not getting surveys I’ve just completed 2 on my dashboard

i used my 50 euro digital card to buy something that cost 46.60. what can i do with the 3.40 that is left on the card?

You could use it with another PayPal account to send the €3.40 to yourself. That's what I did with mine.

Had a nice carry over from Red C last month so €50 on the way this month.I suppose it will be another of these Master Cards.Still I had no problem with the last one.I don't know about what other people think but I still preferred the cheque from RED C.Hope they go back to it soon.

I prefer the MasterCard because I can transfer it via PayPal to my Revolut account without leaving the house, cheques are a pain Ian’s should be done away with totall.

I keep getting and getting kicked out for a €5 survey about insurance twice I said I don’t have any so what’s the right answer if I get it a 3rd time lol

Well overall you're better telling the truth with these survey companies.Because if you answer untruthfuly to qualify for a survey you could find yourself possibly banned from that company.Best to be truthful and miss an odd survey(I do that and have been screened out of plenty) but still get plenty.No one gets to do all the surveys they get.Thats my advice for what it's worth.

Much preferred the Mastercard tbh, but it's just a hobby-funding exercise for me. I spent the last one in a H&M sale and got maternity and baby clothes and new outfits for the kids. Usually buy yarn or Steam games with it anyway.

This is my first time qualifying for the €50.00 Red C payment. How do we receive it ? Is the Mastercard from Red C emailed? Thank you in advance.

It used to be cheque but over COVID they email us a prepay digital MasterCard and you use it online but your best off to lodge into PayPal and then transfer to your bank

Yes.Got my first one last month (usually got a cheque).You will get an e mail with a card and a number in about two weeks.Works fine.

Often I just delete a survey when it asks what I work at.I don't work due to a disability so I just delete it when there is no other option.

Did anyone have the problem with IO where an egift voucher is pending for a week?
I usually get them straight away. I sent them an email but haven't got any reply. They are usually good.

I’m doing Red C & Acumen and I love them, I’m looking to do more irish survey websites what else is good? I’m signed up for irish opinions what else is out there that’s good and Irish thanks.

If it’s the Tesco one I did mention that previously in the thread, the voucher emails they sent out were meant to have a challenge key but it wasn’t included so now they are trying to sort it out

I wouldn't recommend Opinion World. They stiffed me, and were very unhelpful.
Not sound IMO.

ask me pay me and tribia pay through paypal, mysurvey do as well. I cant seem to log in to ask me and tribia lately, not sure if anyone else is having problems like that.


I really like opinion world, I do surveys for them most days, if they dont send you a survey you can just hit start survey from a previous surveys from them and it usually works.
