How often do you cash out on your survey sites?

I used to cash out immediately, but now I am thinking about waiting until I reach either a certain amount or I cash out in a specific month... Do you cash out once a month? As soon as you reach cash out? Is it different with the ones who mail you checks as opposed to paypal payments?

How long does it take you to get to the $100? What survey sites do you like?

I cannot cash out on a survey site because they send few surveys a month.Also i do not qualify in most of the surveys.It has been more than two years i am doing surveys but i still cannot cash out.Maybe int he next five years i can.Surveys are very time consuming and takes thirty to forty five minutes to complete.

It depends on the sites really. The ones I do mostly range from ten to 20 minutes. And I have been qualifying for more with opinion outpost. Check their link on the website linked to my profile. They are one of the better paying and one that I qualify the most with. There are other survey link on my site as well. Thanks for responding and have a great day. Hope you check them out

Most times I cash out at the minimum as right now we need the money due to lay off. It just takes so long for the checks to come. I really like the pay pal and much more convenient that is for sure. With opinion outpost I get many surveys from them so I try and wait because it usually doesn't take that much time. With NFO my survey you can only cash out at $10 increments and now have 12.50 in there and waiting for the $20. With Global Test market the minimum is $50 and then it take 4-6 weeks to receive that check after requesting. It is nice that it is a large amount but it seems to take so long to get. One of the companies I am with I am waiting till around Nov. to cash out as they pay with gift cards and I will use these for Christmas presents.

It really depends on the site. I belong to opinion outpost and there I wait until I reach about $40 and sometimes maybe soon since their checks take about 2 weeks to get to me. Then I also belong to lightspeed and since their paypal payout is $20 I do it then. I really don't wait for a special month or amount. Just really whenever I think about it.

I cash out every month just because you never know when a site might close down. The others I have to wait until I make a certain amount before I can cash out.

I would cash out immediately; as soon as I finally reached the minimum payment amount for the first time. It's very frustrating how I get a survey once a fortnight or so and am told half the time that "Sorry, you don't qualify." How do you manage to even reach cash out?

That is frustrating. And I always cash out the first time on a site to make sure that they are legit. Now with the ones who send me more qualifying surveys I trust them. The ones on my website linked to my profile are legit sites. Check them out, you may already be a member to some, but you never know. Good luck and thanks for responding.
