I have just transferred a total of £115.66 from my PayPal account to my bank account.
17 Nov. 2008 Transfer To Bank Account Pending Details -£115.66 GBP £0.00 GBP -£115.66 GBP
This is the bit of extra money I have made over the past few months... Not much, I know... but not bad at all for spare time here and there and I am looking forward to paying this into my savings and build some interest on it... Yes, that plan of investing in PTCs went out the window with the PTCs!
Despite having made this £115.66 using FREE sites, mostly survey and review sites, I am thinking I could have made a lot more if I had more extra time but I have a fulltime job and family so this can only remain what it is - a hobby.
It has been an interesting learning curve and I have learnt a few things here and there and written about them too for others to see it is indeed do-able which makes it more interesting somehow
Still hoping that $50 arrives from bux.to this month plus there's that £20.66 from HPF which may not arrive too
but hey, the rest have paid up:-D, I have also been paid £40 worth of vouchers on top of that so that should go towards the xmas kitty:) and the other interesting part has been the three free products to test received from some survey sites.
What about everyone else? How has it been the past few months? Have you earned some of that extra money you were after? Are you still enjoying it? Which payments are you waiting on? Which ones have you received?

That's wonderful. Is this your first transfer? I'm hoping to transfer my Paypal money to my bank account soon. Currently I'm asking them if there is a problem with my name, since it's not exactly the same on the Paypal and bank account. I have checked with them and have not received areply as yet. I hope everythign would be fine and I should receive my money soon. I have been receiving online earnings in my Paypal accoutn since Mar this year and I have accumulated more than US$200 so far. I'm quite happy with my achievemt. We all started with zero adn now you rake in some thing. If you're doing this in a part-time basis, you are doing very well. I'm staying home to lk after my daughter and have to make some extra money when she is napping or gone to bed at night. My time is limited. If not, I woul dhave made more money online. I'm waiting for bux.to too, but I have been waiting for more than 5 months, so hopefully they will pay in dec. LOL! NOt banking on that one though. But it would be a nice surprise if they do pay. Other than that, I'm not waiting for any payments, all received.

Congs to you too SydneyHazelton, $200 is good! Yes, it is not bad at all for a bit of time here and there...
I also use most of the sites and update my blog after I have done my daughter's bedtime then also do a bit here and there when I can sneak in a quiet moment at work
as I am infront of the PC anyway..others play games, chat and facebook but since I discovered this making money online, I put the time to better use
and good to have something to show for it:)

My fave ones so far have been Lightspeed and PineCone Research which pay the most per survey in my book..
Others I also use include GlobalTestMarket and Ipsos that have also paid me Have a look at my blog link which has payments received.

Looks like you are doing well. I got screwed by Netwinner then screwed by Boomertowne. I got really disappointed, and hope to make a few dollars with myLot until it goes broke. Everytime I join something it goes broke, I am starting to feel like a jinx. There seems to be a couple of others that seem to be behind on payments so I am assuming they are bankrupt too.

I haven't heard of the first ones you mentionned before...
I suppose everyone will go bankrupt at some point

They were American/Canadian so you would not have been involved in them anyways. I joined My Homepages Friends which is UK based and now they seem to be3 or 4 months behind on their payments so I guess it will be down the tubes next. They owe me a bag of money.

Well done but ggod luck with Bux.to. My daughter has been waiting since February for them to pay her - me - I've been waiting since July. they are terrible at paying - keep making promises but to no avail. I thought of becoming a Premium member - but why pay $59.95 when they can't pay me $15 on 4 months.

That's a lot of money for me. Congratulations. I know the feeling of having earn extra money online. I am waiting to for my Bux.to payment for almost two months now and I guess they would never pay me as some people say that the site turns into a scam. I have been making extra money too in different sites to cover my expenses this Christmas.

I have not earned some of the extra money I was after. There are two payments which are due. Buxto, which I know pays late, and HPF. HPF is overdue but I am trying to understand the problems they face. Maybe it is because of being marked as a possible fraudster because I used to do a lot of research. I did not sleep and they implied the number of searches was abnormal. 105 searches in 24 hours are abnormal? I sacrificed my sleep to complete a research and lost my earnings..
I am still chasing that elusive dream and mostly enjoy doing it.

They will not tell you this but they seemed to have a cap of 100 searches at which time they would tell you you are cheating. I am not sure why they did not just put a cap on everyone and leave it at that.
Unfortunately this all seems academic because HPF seems to have become another scam site, they are not paying anyone. They are two or three months behind so do not wait for them to pay you when the rent is due.

Wow, you must put in a lot of time on myLot to have 14K posts
I work infront of a PC most of the day as it's the nature of the job so if it is quiet, I do a survey or two and same applies to the rest of the sites and I do a bit more during my spare time at home and while watching TV since I got my laptop
It's just mainly finding the sites that work for me and putting a bit of time here and there.. You can check my blog to check which free sites I used, some are not for international members though
Good Luck

Wow! Not bad. In your case that you have your family to attend to and a full time job is what I call good time management. Extra money like this wont hurt at all. In fact it gives you the sense of drive and passion with earning a little extra for some rewards that you want to spend for.
As a family man and has a full-time job. I, myself, shared the same luck. I am yet to receive my 25 bucks here in Mylot. Although I got my $100 plus from Ciao. I want to do and contribute more. Do you know any other sites that pays you from doing reviews or just writing stuff? Would you share some to me? It would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks Being a single working parent means time management is a must I do a bit here and there when time allows and if I can sneak in some free time after I do the bedtime and quiet periods at work...
Do visit my blog for a list of sites I was referring to, one of my faves is writing music reviews on slicethepie too.
