    It happened to us once or twice while living in Dublin, haven't had it in Limerick but there are legitimate surveyors sent around places for things like that.

    Have had something like that before, but the one that called to my door was surveying about food & drink brands.

    Have had it in Limerick too. The guy came in with a laptop and sat a few of us down and went through all these questions. It took quite a while. I think he may have come around twice actually. It was 6 or 7 years ago.

    They were more than likely Millward Browne or Red C doing research, they get commissioned by State agencies and private companies to do research on certain topics

    You will see the output in the papers in a few weeks
