Hi there again - I am a member of several survey companies and I have always stayed with only the ones that paid me - I don't go for those that say an entry into a sweeps or contest - those are a joke!!! But hey here's a website that I check out - it lists those for different countries so maybe give it a shot!!!

Also I started a discussion about a really cool website that basically polices the survey sites out there so check it out if you feel like it - I don't want to put a link to the discussion because I don't think that would be cool to do after reading the rules so just passing on some info to u!!!!

Yes, I get paid from a several sites. The good ones don't always accept members. Survey Savvy is now acceptting new members. They pay in cash - you don't need a credit card to join the site and you don't have to complete any scam offers in order to get paid for the surveys that you complete. You can sign up here - http://www.surveysavvy.com/ss/ss_index.php?id=2713429&action=join

It took a few weeks before I got my first survey from them. Try going to their home page and filling out some of the surveys that tell them about the things you buy and services you use. You don't get paid for them but those unpaid surveys will give the site more info on what kind of surveys to send you. It only takes a few minutes and it sure did make a difference when I finally filled them out.

Thanks Ketherine for the post.
I am signed-up to Opinion Outpost. I have yet to receive a survey or any points. I am not sure what type of people they are looking for, but I am not it (yet).

I have tried that whole mess before...
Some people can make it work, but it is difficult for most people not because taking the surveys are hard, but because in order to get paid enough for it to be worth your time, you have to qualify in various ways and pass other requirements.
IMHO, not worth it!

True...I find that tricky to do though. My friends are bound to disown me if I send them any more info.

I have been paid by some, but nothing to brag about.

yes actually you can, I have gotten paid about $10.00 at the most in one, and about $75.00 for going to a forum for 1 hour. It can happen but yu have to make sure that you are pretty open with all the categories and screenings for certain surveys that are available. if you do not meet the criteria than it may take more time before you get a survey that you qualify for and actually get paid for. One gal told me that she was doing well and making about $60.00 a week with Surveys but she had been doing them for at least 9 months and she was doing about 10 to 20 survey sites, and that just seems like WAY too much work to me....but that is me, I would rather promote a website and get referrals here on mylot than to try to do the survey thing. I am with some surveys and I have gotten cash out of some. www.fushioncash.net is a good site to go to...

Yeah, even at $60 a week, I can see that being a lot of work.
Thanks for suggestion. Much appreciated!

I have had wonderful success with pinecone research they actually pay $5.00 a survey. They also pay you to test products and do a survey about the product that you've tested. Payments are done on time. The only thing is you have to find the banner on a website which moves around frequently. You get two to three surveys a month. So far I've made $15.00 dollars. This is a new month for me and I have already completed two surveys so more money is forth coming.
