The Best of the Rest (Surveys)

I've already posted about my two favourite and most successful survey sites, today I will post a short bit about 'the rest'. These are all sites that I am using but have no proven success with...yet...

Ciao Surveys
Ciao are a pretty well known name for product reviews (kinda similar to kelkoo I guess) but they also do surveys. A while back I got £10 paid direct into my bank account from Ciao for surveys, but then I stopped using them for a while.

Now Ciao have split their surveys operation to a separate, dedicated website. They have plenty of surveys to take part in, but I seem to get screened out of a lot of them. I currently have credit of £4.65 and once I reach £5 I can request another payment.

Not one of my favourites, but they are legitimate and it may just be my profile isn't best suited to the type of surveys you get there.

They have no affiliate link, but if you want to email me I can send you an invite that will earn me £1 when you sign up and complete 1 paid survey. Alternatively, you can just go direct to http://www.ciao-surveys.co.uk/

Global Test Market
I don't know much about these guys. They are American, but do pay out to UK users. They pay 5 cents per 'Marketpoint' and you have to reach 1500 Marketpoints to receive a cheque. I am currently only on 285points.

They have no affiliate scheme, go straight to http://www.globaltestmarket.com/

YouGov
This site seems pretty slow going, I have only £1 in my account from signing up and completing my profile and you can't cash out until you reach £50. However, on some forums that I read I see that many people have actually cashed out successfully from this site. Perhaps I've just been unlucky...

This one has an affiliate scheme, my link is http://my.yougov.com/go.aspx?id=f815ba8a-4bce-4df8-85a9-0f0978fc1078. With this one, whatever rewards you get for surveys in your first 3 months, I get as well.
If you prefer not to give me credit you can go direct to http://my.yougov.com/

Others
These links are to sites that I've not had much experience of or many surveys from. Whether they'll be worth signing up for in the long run, I don't know, but they're here if you want to try your luck...
