Advantages: Fun, Rewarding And Easy To Use

Disadvantages: Questions Can Sometimes Be Irrelevant To You, Long Payout Time

I've been using this site for the last month or so as a way of killing some time with quick polls and due to recommendation. It's proved a nice little site that could be a nice little financial bonus one day in the future.

In a nutshell, you sign up and go there to complete surveys. So far I've answered everything from Stag and hen night questions to how much I spend on fuel each day. For each survey you can either get a cash reward or usually around 5p-15p or the chance of winning Amazon vouchers. When you join you're given £2.50 straight away as a reward to nicely kick you off. One day in the future you can expect to reach the payment threshold of £40 at which point you get a cash payout and start the process all over again.

There are a number of main benefits. When I first joined I was half expecting to have to empty my mailbox of spam every 20 minutes. So far I've had none and they've been true to their word about not pestering me.

Their surverys are short and snappy and the amount for doing it is on the right hand side. It's up to you to check on when they arrive but I find late afternoons there's a majority of new ones there. I imagine the people that work there post them on there so I take it they work office hours in the UK, hence why you rarely find any new postings on at night time.

It's easy to use; the site is plain and easy to understand and everything is set out in a way which is easy to access.

There are a nunber of downfalls. Waiting ages for a payout doesn't bother me as I do them for fun but it will probably take a good six months to get any kind of financial reward if you use it for that incentive. Then again if you like doing them and you're patient, and also bear in mind that it only really takes a few minutes out of your day then it's easily overcome.

I also find that sometimes it forces you into giving answers you don't want to give. I.E, a set number of answers with no option of saying "none of these" or "other" and entering your choice. Also it's not until you get into the survey and you realise this bears no relevance to you as you've go no indication in the subtitle at the start to tell you. For example you can be halfway through and they start talking about children and you have none and then you find you've wasted your time.

Other than that, its fun and interesting and there's money at the end of it if you stick it out. Nice little site.

Summary: Good Site With Fun Ideas
