The American Consumer Opinion Panel is not just for Americans but is instead very active paid survey company operating in the United Kingdom and the rest of the world.

Survey rewards are sent within 4-6 weeks with ACOP paying for surveys by American Express gift cheque which can be used or exchanged for cash like travellers cheques.

Survey Savvy don't tend to send out that many paid opinions surveys but they more than make up for it with their rewards structure! The minimum I have been paid for a single survey here is $40 with one four part paid survey topping the $100 mark! Like I said, you'll perhaps not receive a survey for months on end though so don't get discouraged if you don't see immediate results. Do make sure you fill out all the additional profile sections in your Survey Savvy account though as this will increase your chances of getting invitations. Survey Savvy also run paid focus groups and send focus group invitations occassionally and conduct paid telephone surveys but contact you first via email for your permission and respect your privacy if you opt out.

I tend to find this to be one of the more active paid survey sites. Join SurveySpot today and let your opinion be heard ... and win! (US, Canada & UK) Click Here

GoZing was recently acquired by Greenfield Online who also own the consumer survey and opinion portal Ciao. Prospective UK GoZing survey panel members are now being directed to the Ciao website instead where you will be given the opportunity to join the Ciao survey panel or write reviews of the products and services you have used for cash rewards. GoZing used to pay you cash for taking paid surveys and evaluating movie trailers for upcoming cinema and DVD releases and this made them one of the more fun paid survey companies out there and of course also got the inside scoop on new release films as you saw the trailers before the general public. Whether Ciao will now begin to offer these types of fun surveys remains to be seen but Ciao does offer other ways to earn money aside from taking surveys and also has many excellent community features which are well worth checking out.
