Surveys

[kallis3]

Being the sad person that I am, I am signed up to lots of surveys on 'tinternet'. These have various methods of payment. Some pay me in Tesco Vouchers (useful to save for Christmas), some in Amazon, HMV, Nectar points, argos and other store vouchers. Others are paid in money which comes in the form of a cheque. I do seem to earn quite a bit doing these.

Do I have to decare this income if my IVA is successful? I know it's not a lot but it does add up over a year.

can you give me a few links ;o) I;ve done a few myself but always up for anymore of the legit ones )

I've just signed up to YouGov which pays £1 per survey and sends you a cheque when you have £50. Valued Opinions is another one which pays in vouchers (I have Tesco), TNS, GFK Media, Pinecone research (luncheon vouchers). I don't have all the links off hand as I normally tend to wait until they send me an email and just click on the link in that. I normally get sent quite a few so can save the emails when I get them and send them to you as and when if you would like?

Shouldn't be a problem. I will sort them out. Where do you want me to send them to?

[Soulgrowth]

See how easy it is! I will sort out your email addresses and find out the addresses of the surveys and email them to you

[Skippy]

Can you send them to me as well please?

Ciao is another one, I've used them for a while and although it's not much it all mounts up and comes in handy for christmas,

I'll give them a try. Every little helps!

[kallis3]

Not actually sure how to go about getting email addresses, so tomorrow I will post a list of sites on this post

I've just made myself a £1 too.I think you would have to declare any extra earnings to you IP.However, it appears most IVA's have this 10% / 50% rule, so as long as you're in the boundries of the extra cash you can earn you would be able to keep it.I don't know about vouchers but they're not cash so I would imagine these are ok.Perhaps one of the experts will come along and clarify the situation.They usually do and then make perfect sense of the issue!Cat

Hi Everyone,
Here is a list of some of the survey sites I use. It can take up a fair bit of your time, and some of the surveys seem to go on forever. Providing you get past the initial screening, at least you get rewarded. I don't have actual web addresses as all my invites are personalised, but if you put the name into a search engine, you should get there.

Toluna
Survey.com
Opinion Bar
TNS
I points
Ipsos Panels
MediaTransfer
Pinecone Research
Valued Opinions
Caio!

These are the ones I can remember off hand, when I get invites to others I'll post them as well.
There is also Shop and Scan which involves them sending you a small clicker with which to scan your weekly shopping. This you upload to your computer once a week.
Occasionally you also get to try out products. I have had washing powder, dishwasher liquid, fabric softener. All these are full size products and just involves you telling them your opinion

Just thought of another couple:

Lightspeed and Zoom Panel
