    money for uni from survey sites?
    Just looking to see if anyone knows of any good sites that payout? I'm looking to have close to £500 by the end of september, although using SB alone I've managed to cash out my first £100 voucher in about 3 weeks, so I might increase my goal I also use VO, mysurvey and Panelbase which are good, but I'm getting no where near as much as SB, does anyone know of any other sites that pay?

    You are looking at the wrong method to make that sort of money.

    What is SB?

    I was going to say Panelbase, but you already have that. When I did surveys I used Survey Network. You get a twice-daily email with 5/6 survey links that you sometimes qualify for, and they're for around 75p each. You also get emails with individual surveys that are usually for between 50p and £2. If you do enough of them then you can get some money out of it, but you'll never get £500 by September. I think I got around £45 (PayPal) in about 3 weeks, but I was pretty much doing it non-stop because I didn't have much else to do/no job. I think you can only withdraw money once you get to £20.

    The save the student website reviews all the ways to make money from surveys.

    http://www.savethestudent.org/make-m...vey-sites.html

    Truth is that a lot of them don't actually give out much money anymore but with a lot of work you could earn over £300 a year.

    In this article above it goes through what you can expect to earn. I did it when I was at uni and made money but also got products to test. I then sold these products on eBay which was practically making money.
