Payment is by American Express gift cheques. Some banks accept these over the counter for deposit into your UK bank account but almost invariably charge a more for exchange than an American Express office. Most large towns have an American Express office and the process of cashing these cheques is simple. Working like a traveller’s cheque you sign in front of the cashier and receive payment in English money. At the moment your ten dollar cheques are worth a little over five pounds but this situation obviously changes according to the exchange rate.

American Consumer Opinion pays out at ten dollars. Most surveys are at this price so you should, hopefully, receive immediate payment. Payment arrives about a month after a survey is taken.
