Another great project to be involved in regarding banking which I look at every week for loans and overdrafts to keep my business afloat. PFR is also good in many ways as they keep in touch via email or the phone which is always appreciated. Stewart

Taking part in the research was very interesting

Taking part in the research was very straightforward. I was contacted by the People for Research Team, who were very polite and helpful. The research was explained and an email followed up the call with information and consent. The research was conducted on Teams. Everything was explained fully. The interview was interesting and straightforward. The incentive is a bonus. The lead researcher was extremely professional, friendly and encouraging. A pleasure.

Great Variety of Projects

"Help improve homes and energy efficiency!" has been my favourite project so far - lots of detail, different ways of thinking, ideas to discuss and to try out, one to one Teams discussions as well as tasks to complete - but I always enjoy the research discussions and tests that I'm selected for. The staff take such care to make sure that the pre-selection process gets the right mix of suitable people, and they are really good at guiding your through the process and giving ractical help where needed.

I took part in a market research study with this company and had a really good experience.
The process was straightforward from start to finish. Screening was quick, instructions were clear, and the session itself was well organized. The researcher Abigail, was professional and respectful of my time. I never felt rushed or pressured, and they explained everything I needed to know upfront.
I would happily participate again and would recommend them to anyone considering joining a study.
Great work by People for Research

very positive experience

I wasn't sure what to expect when signing up but my experience has been really positive. I signed up 1 month ago and have applied for many things and have been offered 3! The first was to use an online service in my own time and provide feedback and that paid me £20 via bank, then I was offered an in person for £50 which I declined as wasn't worth it with cost of travel. Then offered a third in person with a huge well known global brand which I accepted and completed in person and was paid £95 by bank. Both payments made promptly and the team members I've dealt with have been brilliant, particularly a lady called Claire. Have recommended to friends and family.
