Juicy Brains closing - collect any o/s vouchers

Dear Juicy Brain,
We've come to a BIG decision

From the 10th December 2008 we’re closing the JuicyBrains Panel and replacing it with a JuicyBrains Community. This is part of a larger change in direction from asking you to take standard surveys to seeking your involvement in creating new products and services for the big brands and companies we work for. (More details at the end of the letter.)

Since we’re closing the JuicyBrains Panel, we wanted to ensure there was a replacement for those of you who enjoy doing standard surveys and being paid for your participation. So, we’d like to recommend a partner of ours, Ciao, who would welcome you with open arms. In addition to standard surveys they also ask their panellists for reviews of existing products and they offer incentives for both activities. If you’d like to join Ciao, just click here.

THE JUICYBRAINS COMMUNITY

In the coming weeks, we’ll email you with a link to join the JuicyBrains Community. This has been designed to connect big brands who need innovation with those of you who’d like to be involved in creating new ideas and services. As a community member you can select the innovation projects you’re interested in and interact with a large team including the brand team over a number of weeks to invent new ideas. Instead of paying small incentives for participation, there will be larger prizes for the best ideas as ranked by your fellow team members.

IMPORTANT. Remember we’ll be closing the Juicy Brains Panel on 10th December 2008. If, before that date, your credit balance is £5 or more, please make sure you collect your Amazon vouchers. Unfortunately we won’t be able to issue any vouchers after 10th December, so any outstanding credit balances after that date will lapse.

In the meantime, Happy Juicing!

I have sent them an email asking for a refund of all money in my account.
I am sure it is not legal for them to close and keep money earnt. Imagine how much money they will get, assuming they have a few thousand accounts with between £1 and £4 .

Has anyone else asked them for a full refund?

I tried emailling but mail bounced back. What email did you try?

[mum1964]

I emailed them as i had £4.50 in the account, said I was very disappointed etc, and next day received an invite to do a survey for 50p, took total up to £5 which I then cashed.

cedric@brainjuicer.com

I have not had a reply to my email, which I did send to .com address. I will send another email now.

I was very surprised to find I had £10! I tried to claim a few days ago but there was no "quantity" box - emailed and it bounced back - but I have just tried again and they have obviously fixed the glitch! Fab

A few people on mse are reporting having their accounts increased to nearest £5 when they've complained. I've not had a reply so sent another email.

[Serialdieter]

:) Just had email from cedric - account has been increased so I can claim amazon voucher.

Emailed Cedric last night and he replied with an extra £1 to bring my account up to £5 this afternoon. Voucher ordered.

Thanks for this, I didnt get an email so would have lost my £5. Cedric can keep the 25p!

You are lucky, I have email twice now and no reply to my email.

Get back onto Cedric. In his email he said he was busy updating accounts and was delayed in replying to people. Spam him enough and he should cough up for some peace and quiet :D

Get onto Cedric. Multiply all those 25p by however many people leave them there and Cedric probably comes off quite well. Make sure the juicer gets juiced :)

At last I received a reply and indeed he upped my account so that I could claim £5.00.

If anyone else is still waiting - chase him up again.
