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.

I have been a member of Mediaview for over 20 years and have only missed a few I have over 1000000 points and they are worth nothing I have nothing from them for over 2 years and the prize draws are rubbish would not recommend. Their customer service is awful if they are down.

I've been doing their tv/radio surveys for some time now. As reported by another reviewer all was fine until they changed their website earlier this year. To check if you have won you need to check in their faq area where they list the fact that the winners are shown on a Tuesday. These lists have not been updated since w/e 4th September. They also have been pushing a draw for £1000 which we used points to try and win. How do we know if anybody actually won? neither they nor I can answer that. I've contacted them several times about tis problems and they do not reply. They did reply when I told them I hadn't received some bonus points and they did put that right. But what use is any of that if you can't win anything because they don't pay out or even let you know if you have won something. I would really like to just pack it all in but the thought that I may have won something keeps me hanging on. They obviously know this and are quite happily getting their reviews done for absolutely nothing instead of almost absolutely nothing.

Update: Having received a £5 voucher for doing a 7 day media study (which is already cheap in the extreme), I've been waiting for almost three months to convert it into something I want, never again. GFK Media UK are recruiting right now - I signed up a few weeks back, mainly just so I could get the registration incentive via Quidco Opinions.

So I saw the lack of paid rewards, read the reviews here - nothing seems to have changed at least.

Last week I happened upon the winners list, (which is buried in the FAQ for no apparent reason), and as it turned out, I had actually won a £1 voucher. But for the fact that I scoured that site, I would never have known. So I contact GFK - first response was that I should have it already, after I poked them again, it turns out they've been having problems sending out the vouchers.

Seriously.

£1 vouchers.

That they don't even notify you of.

I wonder how much they save by not paying people who don't even know they've won?

Still waiting for that voucher a week later, and still waiting for the Quidco incentive - a whopping £1 each.

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!!

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!
