Probably get taxed about £49 should anyone ever reach £50 :sad:

So what is the catch then?

[b0t13]

Is it just me or do you have to wait for them to invite you...?

Hmm seemed to good to be true, but seems like you have to get invited to the surveys which means they just take all your data name etc and sell it probably to other businesses...

How can I get invited to surveys more frequently?

YouGov actively samples for surveys, this means that only a proportion of the panel are invited each time. This is for the sake of accurately representing the particular population being researched and is based on a complex system of filling demographic quotas. Therefore it is a matter of probability how often you are invited: within sample requirements individuals are randomly chosen. To maximise your chances of being invited to surveys, you should ensure that your membership profile is complete and up-to-date. You can do this by logging into your account and going to "My Profile". If you think that you are never being invited to surveys, there could be an issue with receiving the emailed survey alert. Please see the FAQ on this subject.

this got posted before on here.

i registered then to give it a go,its took me 6 months to get to £20

[b0t13]

really?

if you want to be really crafty then, sign up with details that u know will be very open to invites, that way youll get loads of invites to surveys, and i doubt its a scam because it was recommended alot on another cruise site..

What will the information I provide be used for?

YouGov collects some personal data about each member for a number of reasons. Firstly, it enables us to contact you about research to take part in, any prize you have won and any incentive payments. Secondly, it enables us to contact you with just those surveys which are relevant to you. Thirdly, it helps us to analyse our survey data by for example, your gender, age, or what region you live in. YouGov takes the security of your personal data very seriously and abides by the UK Market Research Society Code of Conduct and the UK Data Protection Act 1998. This means that your data will be secure and will never passed on to third parties without your permission. For more on this, please see our privacy policy.

dont think its a scam but it probally takes time to get some money depending on ur details, not hard to do the surveys so im gonna keep doing it and see how much i can get for it.
