Times are hard and what not. Anyone do paid surveys, cashback offers etc? Any good ideas?

Paid surveys can be a rip off, I’ve spent 20 mins entering data only to be told I don’t fit the criteria for the survey.

Also testing software ‘can’ sometimes pay off. Early last year I did some beta testing and reported some bugs and made about £80. You get better choices if you can test on multiple platforms. Since then though, nothing or I’ve not been in the right category.

A couple of them I’d turned down as I wasn’t happy scanning my passport or opening a bank account to test. Also don’t use facebook, Instagram or TikTok, so that excludes me from some trials.

I’m getting plagued on my tester email daily for tests that pay $1 (yes one whole dollar!) but just delete those.

YMMV if you use FB etc. But you really do need to set up a spare email. In fact I think it was one of the steps to signing up.

DM me if you want their details.
