If you are in the UK, there is one \n\nwww.ciao.co.uk\n\nThey do pay you for surveys, you fill out some questions when you join and they email you surveys for you to fill in.  You will prob only get 2-6 per week and the price varies between £0.50 and £2.50 depending on the length of the survey so you dont make a fortune.\n\nAny sites you have visited that tells you you can make hundreds of pounds per week doing it are not telling the truth, they make you pay a registration fee and then they'll just tell you that you dont meet any of the criteria for the surveys they have.\n\nCiao is a valid one and once you have earned £5 or over , they send you a check.  This is the only valid one I have found but my friend also uses one www.valuedopinions.com\n\nhope this helps

No. I have looked. Every at hoime internet job wants you to pay a registration fee or something, or at least give them credit card details. Anyone that asks for all that isn't genuine. I honestly don't believe that there is a genuine one.

I make about $20 a month and am signed up with more than 10 surveys sites.  But I don't qualify for a lot of the surveys.  Its really hard to predict how much you'll make because sites are looking for people in various demographics.  \n\nI've listed most of the sites I have taken surveys through and actually been paid (or recieved other rewards like gift cards or CDS) on the following site, if you are interested:\n\nhttp://www.windhavenweb.com/surveys\n\nI list how they pay you, what I like and dislike about them, whether they have an affiliate or referral program, etc. \n\nThere are others out there.  Be careful though, there are also scams.  Don't sign up for any survey site which asks you to pay to access the surveys.   Also watch for language like "get paid for taking surveys AND SIGNING UP FOR OFFERS" if you don't want to have to sign up for stuff with other companies to get paid.  \n\nAlways carefully read their terms of service and privacy policy.   If in their privacy policy they say they only use aggregated info, this is GOOD SIGN they are legit. Aggregated info information that is grouped together so it can't be connected with anyones personal identification like name, e-mail, phone or address. That's what survey sites SHOULD collect.  Avoid sites that say they give, rent, or sell any personal information (info that is not agregated) to third parties (unless you really don't mind getting junk mail, telemarketing calls, and spam).\n\nAlso just recently came across a good survey ratings site that I've found very helpful:\nhttp://www.surveypolice.com/

I have participated in online surveys and got paid -- but I've never had a company pay through Paypal, always checks. As such it may be difficult to find paid surveys for your location and payment preference.\n\nThe rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys. \n\nLegitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group. Pinecone Research, however, pays only $5 per survey -- you're definitely not going to be rich with that. They can give you anywhere from 1-5 at most surveys in a month. \n\nOther companies simply ask you to answer as many research as possible, and you don't earn anything just the chance to win at a raffle (which I find lame).\n\nThe article "Earning Money from Surveys" provide a short list of legitimate market research firms and contains explanations of what to look for when joining surveys (and weeding out the fraudulent ones)\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol121/onlinesurvey.htm \n\nPinecone Research http://www.pineconeresearch.com\nGreenField Online http://www.greenfieldonline.com \nHarris Poll Online http://www.harrispollonline.com  \nBuzzBack http://www.buzzback.com  \nSurveySite http://www.surveysite.com \nSurveySavvy http://www.surveysavvy.com\nSurvey Spot http://www.surveyspot.com/\nhttp://www.internetpaidsurveys.com/

I think it's hard to make much $ from those.  I got a free subscription to Fhm magazine. That was my best "take." But good luck, it can keep you from bein bored. Some surveys offer reward points.  Surveyscout.com gets you started for a fee. Tons of emails will come if you answr.  You might try mysurvey.com but that just gave me a deadend. good luck.

Not a scam, some of them, but don't pay that well either. Global test market, Survey Spot, Synovate are three that I take surveys from all pay small amounts or have contest where you can win money or prizes.

Yes, I have done them. THere are scams there are realones. Anything that is asking you money up front to make money in this business is a scam. But the realones pay too!! The problem is that the reals pay a few dollars ( $5 to $15) and are not often, also are screened for the kind of consumers or people they want to reach, and when you get one through it is probably that at a point you get kicked out of the survey because you made the wrong answer and do not get paid.  The point is... do not make it for aliving, do not pay for it, and if you do it, do not expect to get millions, or even a living out of it. good luck

The only legitimate one that I know of is Harris Poll. They have been around since before there even was an internet. They will send you one or two surveys a month via e-mail and you will earn points towards prizes which include giftcards. You wont get rich but they do deliever the prizes.\nhttp://www.harrispollonline.com/main.asp

Stay away from Cash Create and other survey Web sites!\n\nIt's a waste of time and will cause you unhappiness.\n\nIf you choose to get suckered in and sign up to take surveys and receive free trials considered you were warned. The minute you give them your personal information you open your computer to unwanted cookies on your hard drive, annoying pop-up windows and if you are on a PC you open your computer to viruses that can wipe you out.

I answer surveys for a company called Pinecone Research.  Pinecone pays $5 per survey taken.  They send you a $5 check in the mail.  They did not charge me to join.\n\nIf any company wants to charge you to take their surveys, I strongly suggest looking up reviews of the company and going to the bbb.org (Better Business Bureau) website to find out if they are, in fact, legit.

Most online survey sites (and most work-from-home-on-the-Internet sites in general) are scams. You may get some small payments for surveys to get you "hooked", then they will ask you for a membership fee to "upgrade" to the higher paying surveys. If you can earn a little pocket money taking surveys online, go for it but don't ever expect it to replace the income from a "real" job and if they ever ask you for any money, then it is time to run away!
