Dear members,

Recently, our Sony PS Vita Prize Draw came to a close and we wanted to announce to you the lucky winners!

Each time we do these special lotteries we always have to confirm the winners and delivery locations before announcing them to the rest of our members.  As a result, we do apologize for the delays between the close of these draws and the announcements.

In any case, without further ado, here are the 3 winners picked randomly and the 4^th who purchased the most tickets:

Congratulations to these members and thanks to all those who took the time to participate.  We look forward to seeing some great photos of these members enjoying their new toy!

You can look on our Rewards Page now to check out our latest Prize Draw – a chance to win the brand new and updated iPad from Apple.

Good luck and congratulations again to our most recent winners!

See you soon on the site,

Easter is a Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Easter is preceded by Lent, a forty-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance. The last week of Lent is called Holy Week, and it contains Maundy Thursday, commemorating Maundy and the Last Supper, as well as Good Friday, commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus. Easter eggs are commonly given as a gift at Easter.

The reason for this is because eggs symbolise new life. The largest decorated Easter egg, built by Freeport in Alcochete, Portugal was 14.79 m (48 ft 6 in) long and 8.40 m (27 ft 6 in) in diameter when measured on 8 March 2008.

What will you be doing this Easter Weekend?

Dear members,

We wanted to post a blog concerning the crediting of points as we have seen an increase in the amount of emails and topics on this subject.  We understand how frustrating this is for you, our members, after you have given us your valuable time and effort.  We make every effort to credit surveys as quickly as possible and work hard with our clients and partners to make this happen.  We are sorry for any delays that may occur and we strive to limit these as much as possible.

Due to the complexities of different surveys and their lifespan (how long a survey stays active) there can be a large swath of wait times until you are awarded your points. Sometimes the delay is very short, within a few hours or days, other times this can take a few weeks or up to a month.  If you happen to take a survey within the first few days of it opening, you could (unfortunately) end up waiting six weeks or more for your points. This is why on all invites you receive we do tell you that points will be awarded within 4 weeks of the closing of a survey.

We don’t want you to become worried that points have been forgotten because they do not appear within a matter of days or weeks.  We will always do our best to provide prompt crediting of points wherever possible.

We hope this helps to understand the crediting of points for Toluna surveys and we thank you for your continued dedication!

Today is Valentine’s Day a chance to show your love to a loved one. Here at Toluna we like to show it every day to our members, but especially on this loving day. How will you be spending your valentine’s day? With loved ones or simply showing your love back to Toluna by answering surveys. Are you Romantic?

Valentine’s day is celebrated in India on February 14^th but Ancient scriptures and sculptures have shown that India has been a land of love for many years before this day actually started being celebrated.

Hope you have an amazingly perfect Valentine’s day filled with love.

Love Toluna
