Does anyone belong to the paying survey group, Opinion Outpost?

by , 8 months ago

I just wondered as no matter what I do, or how far I get through their surveys, I seem to get screened out - and then passed onto another one and get screened out again. Is it just me????

I haven't actually used this one yet, but I am finding a similar thing with Toluna. However, I am extremely close to getting a £30 Debenhams voucher from them so I am persisting. Are you close to getting a reward? How does Opinion Outpost work?

I was quite frustrated with Toluna too actually. I've still got £80 worth of Spa vouchers through them that it seems impossible to spend - maybe it's just me!!! I should have chosen something simpler. At least I got £80, I should be more grateful - ha ha... Opinion Outpost really works in much the same way as the others - you get surveys sent to you at intervals, and when you get to 50 points, I think, you can cash them in. I am at a measly 18 or something. I just stopped writing this to try to complete one (just as a test) and I have't been able to - it kept saying Error. I had, of course, spent several mins answering qns up to this point. Oh well!

How did you get spa vouchers on Toluna? Was that from a while back? I haven't seen spa vouchers on there. It's taking me so long to get the £30 Debenhams voucher - almost there!

Yes, Lana - it was a while back. And I've still got the bloody things. But there doesn't seem to be an expiry date on them so maybe I'll find a way to use them at some point.

That's not a site I've come across SJ.

I've done a few for Toluna and Ipsos and found them to be ok but a little slow in paying out especially if you select the 'Love To Shop' vouchers.

I can imagine it's very frustrating to get so far and be told the quota is full, I hope they're not taking the mickey.

Hi,

I too am a member but it seems to source its surveys from other sites. If you're a member of a few communities (especially those accessing the cint survery system) you'll often be excluded for having already taken part.

I'm not sure its rewards are that great relative to other sites, so I'm not too bothered.

Funny you should remark on this. I've had the same experience but not with your specific site.I registered with a few survey sites recently having seen them recommended in the Sunday papers as a way of making money. So disappointed was I at the repeated lack of success in qualifying - I unsubscribed. I was just wasting my time. My site was Survey head,I think.

surveyhead is awesome. did you fill in your profile surveys?

by G-Man, 8 months ago

Survey head is awesome????? Really?? I seemed to get quite a few paying surveys from them to start with, but the last 6 months or so it's hard to get even a penny added on to my balance. I don't get it. I guess I'll try the profile surveys AGAIN!

I have tried some of these surveys but usually they say I am unsuitable.
Sometimes I think they are wanting younger Mums to do surveys on babies etc. They then put me on to another one and they say I am unsuitable too so have no paying ones now only those with a chance to win a small amount.

I'm a member and I don't find it much better or worse than other survey sites.

Sometimes you get screened out, and sometimes you dont.

I'm not a member of that site but a few others. Have had a fe vouchers already this year, but often find when ever i get near to a pay out i get screened out ALOT!

You could try Valued Opinions, Ipsos, Onepoll to name a few. I think all survey sites take a while to get to payout but i have had a few vouchers so far this year. I am waiting on £60 worth to come from 3 differnt sites at the moment. Helps with xmas pressies.

Thank you for Onepoll - never heard of them.

by SJKenny, 8 months ago

Update - I just cashed out £7.50 with Opinion Outpost. I've updated my profile and will keep you posted if there's any further progress!!!!!
