On the Trail of the Lonesome Pine

Advantages: Online survey work offering a better than average reward
Disadvantages: Locating the recruitment banner - no other way of joining the panel

...2009 ~~==

Pinecone Research is yet another site offering paid online survey work. However, joining their survey panel is easier said than done. There is no sign up link via their website, as they recruit purely through online banner recruitment on specific target websites. Happily, if you do spot their recruitment banner, then don't hesitate over clicking and joining up as they offer a better than average return on paid online survey ...

Advantages: Great return rate on surveys answered
Disadvantages: Hard to find banner

Pinecone Research was one of the first consumer panel websites that I heard about through reviews on Ciao. Described as being one of the most elusive but best paying sites you could be a member of, but only if you found a banner or a pop-up which would give you access into the secret world of pinecone research. So after getting bored with looking for the elusive sign and eventually moving onto bigger and better things, mainly another three or four ...
...a member of pinecone research and 18 months on, I am still a member and the surveys are as frequent as ever. So who are they?

For ladies (and men!) who lunch...

Advantages: Good rewards, fast payment, enjoyable surveys
Disadvantages: It's not so easy to join

...the good news ~~~ Pinecone Research claim to be at the forefront of online research: “today’s sophisticated and leading-edge approach to gathering consumer opinion.” The company’s aim has been to recruit a wide cross-section of panellists, who are representative of consumers nationwide. The opinions of these panellists are vitally important to manufacturers in the research and development of new and existing products, and will influence “everything ...
...reward for my time, and Pinecone score highly in this respect. In return for their opinions, panellists are paid a flat rate, £4 in Luncheon Vouchers for, most usually, filling in simple, multi-choice surveys. In addition, panellists may be asked to assist in product testing, for which they are paid another £4 after completing a product evaluation ~~~ Update 2007 ~~~ You now have the option to have your payment credited to a PayPal account instead ...

...to 20 minutes of time. Pinecone research is one of them. This market research is owned by a subsidiary of The Nielsen Company, a well known global market research company whose headquarters are at New York.

The Best of The Best of The Best

Advantages: regular surveys, fair payment, produt trials
Disadvantages: not easy to sign up

...way to sign up with Pinecone is literally to trawl the internet and try and find the, often, elusive banner the company have placed on certain websites. In a lot of cases it can be found on cashback sites, other suvey sites, sometimes even click to pay sites. But be aware that, as soon as these banner ads to join appear, they disappear just as quick. They don't hang around for long so, if you are not a member and want to join, click on the pinecone ...
...The best part of Pinecone is that by the time you receive the invitation for the survey, you know that you have qualified and there is no way you are being screened out at any stage. You will definitely go all the way to the end and get paid within a few days of completing the survey. Pinecone Research are very hot on security so I won't be able to tell you exactly what products I have been asked about but in general, it can become very obvious after ...

Pinecone, Pinecone, Wherefore art thou?

Advantages: Fantastic rewards for completing surveys
Disadvantages: Can be awkward to register with them

...in return for completing a Pinecone survey. New and more recent members receive £3 for completing a survey that usually lasts around twenty minutes. Older members continue to receive £4 at the moment. This is pretty good considering that other popular rival survey sites like Valued Opinions would reward you with approximately £1 towards the value of a voucher for completing a survey of the same length. What I love about Pinecone is the fact that ...
...receive Luncheon vouchers, and again Pinecone were very prompt in posting these out to me. It would usually take about a week. You can use Luncheon vouchers in pretty much every supermarket and fast-food outlet. I used to use them at Sainsburys, Tesco and Somerfield for my grocery shopping. I also like the fact that they can be used in Holland and Barratt too! Cashiers normally accept my Luncheon vouchers – I have only been refused once, but that ...
