another decent site that send surveys via email is yougov.
it is mainly current affairs etc and pays points for each survey maximum 20 minutes most are shorter. Points add up to money and cash out is £50.
I have been member for 2 years and cashed out 3 times although to start I didn't do a lot of surveys.
Some people get more surveys than others I have been told but the plus side is you don't get screened out.
https://yougov.co.uk/refer/5u1D8yArU78qsJE1bs9OnA/
try the link above if you want a referral or just go to the site and join up if you prefer I get 200 points if you complete 6 surveys using my referral
thanks simon

Seen this company mentioned a lot but never really looked into signing up with them.

£50 Cashout on surveys seems quite a lot to me compared to the usual £10

I've been with them for years and haven't reached £50 yet. I hardly get any surveys. :(

I joined YouGov about a month ago and yes I think it'll take a while to reach the payout, but I find the surveys are interesting and varied and it does make a nice change not getting screened out!

I'm getting 4 or 5 survey invites a week. It might be my imagination but the invites have increased since I completed more of my profile and "rated" a few bits and pieces on the homepage. I might be due a payout by Christmas which will be a nice little bonus.

YouGov statistics are often quoted in the news, so by participating you are perhaps having a bit of a say in current affairs - though how representative the respondents are is probably often questionable.

The great thing with yougov is they don't screen you out like most survey sites and you don't need to do the survey within seconds of getting it.although some survey sites pay at £10 how long does it take to make £50 from those sites probably the same amount of time as it does to reach yougov threshold.only without the screen outs.

I've had £100 from YouGov. Make sure at the end of surveys to click 'no thanks' to an entry to the draw as that will take all your points. I've found if you're active on the website you tend to get more surveys, so every time I finish a survey I fill bits in on there.

That's good to know - I wondered whether it was just my imagination that the more interactive you are on the site, the more invites you receive.

Same here a good site and no screenouts. I joined a few months ago and have over 3000 pts so not bad.
At least it does pay and the surveys are not long either.

I just reached £50 too. I last did it last October, so I seem to do quite well out of it. I get 3-4 surveys a week from them some weeks. I think I fit their demographic.

Just reached £50 payout which I have now requested. I really do like YouGov because you qualify for every single survey they send you. I would rather get less surveys sent to me and qualify for them than getting allot through that I don't qualify for. :)

Well done :)

YouGov surveys tend to be snappy and interesting and varied - a nice way to earn a little bonus for Christmas I hope

I love yougov, interesting surveys, really reliable and good fun. The only problem is that it takes ages to get up to fifty pound, they should make is ten quid before payout

350 points off of my £50 cash out. Debating whether to continue with this site. It's taken 8 months to get to this point but I guess it's nice that you don't have to worry about being screened out.

It took me ages to reach the first payout but the points are building up faster for my next one. I love the fact there are no screen outs so that is a big bonus which is why I am definitely sticking with YouGov. :)

I reckon it'll take me a year to get £50, but I enjoy the surveys too - always varied and usually quick, so I'm happy to stick at it. I don't get that sinking feeling when I start a YouGov survey like I do with some others!

100 points away from my £50, thats like 2 surveys! Checking my email regularly in case. In desperate need of some cash right now so this will really come in handy. How quickly do they process payments?
