    Global Test Market changes

    Been on the app today and it now has the rewards at the same rates as it is on the GTM site, so they must have updated it? It did let me redeem 575 for £5 paypal though, not sure what they are doing.

    Global Test Market changes

    I have signed up to the app and currently have 700 and something points that was already in from my gtm account, it won't let me redeem anything though. Just to clarify, is min redemption 2000 pts on both the gtm site AND the lifepoints app now or am I doing something wrong? Some of you say...

    Newbie :-)

    Lots of good tips for you there Emma, I found reading Katy Kicker's survey bible really helpful, which is here on the money shed forum somewhere. I only started a couple of weeks ago but I'm optimistic with what I've managed so far. Anything is a bonus from how I see it, saving my pennies as...

    Global Test Market changes

    Had only just started on global test market before they switched to life points, but was finding it a good site. Since the change though I'm struggling, seem to get a lot less surveys available and seem to be lucky to qualify for one a day?! How is everyone else getting on?

    Apps that pay the most

    Good idea Andrew. I'm getting myself a new iphone soon (although I'll have to move with the times and actually learn how to use it!) so will be interested to know where people earn their cash. Looking forward to seeing everyone's suggestions. Is VYPR a task app along the lines of roamler etc?

(Think i'll give management a...

    Feel like I am banging my head against a brick wall sometimes!!

    Sometimes its difficult to know where to start, but my first week of surveys must have earned me almost £50 so theres no way I can complain about that. Due to my son's care needs and age, I can't go out and get a regular job, so any ways of making extra money for me FROM HOME are so important. I...
