I once did not get my points for "speeding", allegedly completing the survey too quick. I never did get the points.........
e-rewards seem more likely to instate point if you challenge a decision.

No, and I complete around 2 surveys a week. That seems very odd, I'd raise a query with them and see if they will honour the points.

Indeed. My cut off is around 20 mins, if I can get 50 Avios for 15 minds of my time, fair enough, but for 30 mins I want more than that ! And I've had 25 Avios for 2-3 minutes several times. They should really tailor the reward to the amount of time spent, like e-rewards; there is no way I'm spending half an hour on a survey !

Has anyone else had their stream of Rewards for Thoughts survey invitations dry up, as of a couple of weeks ago ?

Rewards for thoughts
Anybody do them ??
i usually do them on breaks in work and have probabley earned about 9000 avios from them , done 2 about a week ago which should of given me 100 , but since avios is now shut down , they are not crediting to the BA rewards app.

Did about 8-9 surveys a week or so ago...about 4/5 surveys credited to my Avios account using a first Reward for Thoughts account, and the other 4/5 surveys on a different Reward for Thoughts account which credited to my BA Executive Club account.
The avios in each case took around five to six days from completion of the surveys to post on my Avios/BA account.
Hope that helps!

I do them - did them quite religiously till we got the flights to HKG/OZ booked. Mainly did them on the daily commute by train. Having a wee bit of a break just now. They do post direct to my BAEC account which is where I initially set it up. Usually post 48 hours afterwards.
Between Rewards For Thoughts and e-Rewards, i’ve probably got around 25000 avios over 4 years.

Do them in front of the TV, and also e-rewards. I think over the two accounts I've got something like 36K avios in a year. E-rewards is limited to 2000 a month.
There's no real reason to do them, and I suspect there are similar services attached to real cash, but it's a sort of habit now.

I've done a few and acquired about 3.5k. However, I pick and choose the "good value" ones. Spending half an hour of time for 50 avios is not worthwhile. Some of them are horrifically tedious to complete.
Posting wise, they're reliably quick.
