REDEEMING REWARDS

The more surveys you take weekly, the more likely you will be entered into the higher tiers for weekly draws and prizes. You can also earn points to be redeemed by major online retailers.

GfK is one of the world’s largest market research companies, spanning over 57 countries and has been conducting surveys for over 70 years! GfK is committed to providing the highest quality of information and protection of its panelists. They are members of the UK Data Protection Act and follow the Market Research Society’s Code of Conduct.

GfK MediaView Panel

The Gfk MediaView panel lets its members share their opinion on what they watch on the television and hear on the radio. You could have an influence on what shows are available in your country and change the future of broadcasting!

Take Daily Surveys

Every day there are surveys available about TV and Radio related subjects asking you about your viewing and listening habits. There are no survey screen outs. Each time you complete a survey, you will receive "tickets". Once you have accumulated 10 tickets, you will receive an entry into a prize draw for cash, vouchers, experiences and gadgets. Each days' surveys are available between the hours of 6AM and 12AM only.

How Does it Work?

Every day, you can rate the television programs you watched the day before, giving a simple rating score (1-10) to the programs you watched for at least 5 minutes.

Get Rewards

For your participation, you have the chance to win prizes including cash, exclusive experiences, and e-vouchers from retailers such as Amazon, Tesco, Cineworld and more. There are weekly draws to participate in as well.

The number of surveys you complete each week determines which of the weekly prize draw tiers you will be entered into at the end of the week:>

  • 1-2 surveys = Bronze
  • 3-4 surveys = Silver
  • 5-7 surveys = Gold

Each survey you complete also earns you points, which can be spent towards a catalogue of great prizes in the points prize draw:

  • Each TV survey = 200 points
  • Each Radio survey = 100 points
  • Per “5 minutes” of a survey = 500 points

Eligibility: Residents of the UK, Ireland and Isle of Man.

They take away points

July 27, 2016 by Marina from United States

This GFK company hardly send any surveys that I can do and they test you over and over and then say you don't get to do the survey, etc. They took away points from this account in which they make me put my points which is their account but separate. There the points are only allowed to sit a certain amount of time and then expire. Imagine that!! They expire. Those are points I had worked for. That is like taking a worker's wages away. That should not be allowed. I quit after they claimed they had a right to take my points away. It is so silly and they don't even offer great rewards. A person cannot save the points in fear of them making the points saved worthless. Really they don't care about the survey panelist!!

GfK MediaView appraisal

March 12, 2016 by Barbara from United Kingdom

I have just read several reviews about the GfK way of giving prizes to those of us who complete their daily questionnaires, and was appalled by the comments.

It is absolutely not true that nobody even wins anything. One of my daughters and I have been completing this for years. Many years ago, she won £500, on the strength of which we both took her two children to France for a few days.

I have frequently won a £2, £3 or £5 reward and a few weeks ago I received a £25 John Lewis voucher. In fact, when you go online to redeem the reward you can choose from a lot of different vouchers.

Why? oh! why? won't they change their redemption of points system?

February 7, 2016 by dawn from United Kingdom

I have been a member of this survey site for several years. I have loved being able to review the television shows that I watch every day but when it comes to the points redemption system, this is possibly the worst among the Survey companies. If you amass a good many points (as I have done), you expect to be able to click on my points followed by the choice of payment, ie cash or vouchers, and then click on Redeem. Not with GFK. You have to enter a draw each day and its pure chance that you will be chosen to get your points. This is the most unfair system around since, only one or two people win the draw. The rest of us can lose our points and whistle. So, how about it management of GFK? Its not quantum science to simplify the points redemption system to what other survey companies are offering, is it?

Sheer rudeness and heartless

February 5, 2016 by Amina from United Kingdom

After spending years contributing to this panel and accumulating many points, I discovered one day that my account was terminated without ANY notice! When trying to access the survey, I was sent to a page saying:

"We are sorry to say that your contributions are no longer needed for our panel. We thank you for your past contributions and apologise for any inconvenience this causes."

How dare they be so rude and ignoble to dump you, giving no prior notice or thanks for your efforts?!

It gets worse, believe me. A month before, I qualified for an incentive which they NEVER sent to me!

On top of that, last year (2015), I never won a single prize draw before December like I used to the year before due to dubious changes in the system. They know that you have NO WAY of proving that the prize draws are not hoaxes, because if you were randomly chosen and they didn't contact you, you would have NO WAY of knowing that! Also, they cannot prove to everyone else that real people actually won something from the "prize draws" and they know this plus know that they can escape detection! Also, they don't display the winners of the "prize draws" on their little website so why should one trust them?

One word (out of many) to describe this panel: Weak, Weak weak!

Dodgy dealings

December 11, 2015 by NIcky from United Kingdom

After faithfully reviewing telly and radio programmes for weeks, I wondered how come the £1-5 lists (very long) were updated, yet the names of those who won the few prizes that were of any merit were never listed. So I contacted them and was told that the winners were not listed as they were notified directly. Hmmm. Surely the additional reason that a list of winners is disclosed is for transparency.
I fear I have been a mug!
