A large percentage of their surveys you get kicked from just as you think you getting to the end. Also as I got closer to the reward minimum payout the surveys frequency started slowing. Now they seem to have stopped and just eight points more are needed. I've checked what other people are saying recently and they also are having the same sort of problems.

I read a bunch of the comments that did not like them compared to what they were. For me it is the opposite. I have been with them over ten years. The old reward system I believe was called You Give. It had very little that I wanted. Now you can get Amazon. com cards. A $20.00 card is 2400 points. Completed surveys pay 50 to 250 points, average 100 about $.85 each. Every unqualified survey is worth 15 points. Now days everybody partners with everyone else. If I keep my email notifications and click on the take survey button I can get up to three surveys a day, many with partners reviewed on Survey Police. I will get more bottom line money through gift cards with Harris than any other partnering site except for maybe my other favorite, Opinion Outpost.

After years of taking their surveys finally gave up. Used to be straight surveys which was fine but then they went to this "pre-survey" thing: First the pre-survey, then either no survey because I supposedly didn't qualify, or once getting into a survey it was the "you don't qualify" message after completing half to two thirds or more of a survey, followed by an invitation to take another pre-survey survey. Last couple of years most surveys I could get into were the same ones over and over (must have done the automobile one over 6 times the last couple of years), asked the same questions different ways, or had poor/limited choices for responses. Rewards were nothing to make it close to worthwhile; the couple of times I selected items they were junk. A total waste of my time from any perspective.

I have been a member of Harris for about 11 years. It used to be great. First they changed the incentives you still receive points for completing a survey but now instead of being able to redeem for decent items you have to jump through hoops to redeem for vouchers to use at online retailers. It is a real pain to redeem with online merchants.

Second the whole company now is shady. Out of the last 10 or so surveys I have participated in I have only been able to complete on survey. This is how the scam works, they have you answer questions to find a survey you qualify for. After they start you on the survey you get almost done and all of a sudden it will pop up and say you dont qualify. That is after you have spent a good deal of time answering questions you supposedly already qualified for. Harris has become a complete scam, I would not recommend it to anyone.

I've been taking surveys with Harris for over a decade, and they had always been my measure against which all other survey firms were judged. But since they've chosen work like all the other firms, with random surveys and such, they have indeed become like all the other surveys, absolutely pathetic. And, to top it all, I just spent 20 minutes digging through the web to find any contact info, because selecting any of their "survey help desk" links leads to a dead page.
If anyone needs it, the number is 1-800-600-2493
I am outraged at the abject failure a once-excellent firm has become.

You spend 10 - 15 minutes answering questions and then it says you don't qualify for the survey. What a joke and a big waste of my time.

So far this site is going well. Get roughly 3-4 surveys a week. The points could be higher. My account is credited the same day (no problems there). I am curious about the sweepstakes. Has anyone ever won the $250, $10,000 sweepstakes? They claim these a given out every quarter????????????

use to be better don't get as many surveys anymore and its taking forever to meet the redemption!

I have found that this site will get you to do what should actually be considered the survey, and then say that was the screener and you didn't qualify. I also find that they don't credit your account the way that they should. I haven't cashed out for anything yet, but I plan to stick with the site for now.

Harris frequently has you complete the survey, than says you did not qualify, so they can avoid paying rewards. Since November 2012 they changed from a not so good survey firm, to a very bad and dishonest survey firm. I would avoid them.

Harris Poll has definately gone down the cosmic loo the past few years. I used to get several surveys a week based on profile, and they had these cool 'levels' of rewards where you could get gift cards or even actual items like DVD's, crock pots and such.
Now I'm lucky to get one or two offerers from them a week (if that), and it's the 'random possible survey' thing. In other words, you keep trying into you find a survey you can take. The odd thing is they survey claims this is better, but it's a TOTAL waste of time, going through survey after survey finding the one you may qualify for. And once you DO find one, that's it, no more surveys for you that day. At least Opinion Outpost, error prone as they are, let you keep taking until you run out.
The rewards now are pathetic and the the incentives are so low it takes forever to even earn them. Unless they shape up, plan to drop them.

Harris Poll used to be a good survey company but they changed for the worst.

Most surveys pay from 50-100 points on average and when you failed a survey, you got a few points but now this isn't true.

In fact, they make you take a survey and when you get to the end, they say that you don't qualify. I mean WTF, they make you take a survey up to 15 minutes or more and then tell you at the end of the survey that you don't qualify.

Harris used to be a pretty good panel. If you didn't qualify, you knew it early on, and got partial points for trying. Not anymore - their new prescreeening is a joke, and qualifying is rare. They also went from a cash or prizes incentive to Amazon gift cards & charitable donations. I cashed out for my gift card, did a few extra surveys to build the leftover points enough to make a charity donation, and unsubscribed.

Am new to survey-taking and this site has been particularly frustrating. At 1st, I got some very interesting politcal surveys and completed them with no problems. However, in the past few wks, I have experienced problem after problem. Have taken 3 very long surveys and have not received credit. Have also been 15-20 minutes into surveys when suddenly I was told I did not qualify. Have contacted customer service twice and have not received a response as of yet. I did just cash out for a $10 gift card so we'll have to wait to see how that goes. If this is a site you'd like to try, do keep one of their emails with the check for survey button and then click on it a few times daily. If you wait for them to contact you, the surveys will be very few and far between.

I've had the exact same experience that Kerry & Rebecca described in 8/12 & 2/12. After you've spent 20 minutes completing the survey, they tell you you're not qualified.

i have been with this site for a couple of years now and have had very few problems. it does take a long time to get rewards and some people don't like them, but i love amazon so i'm happy. customer service for me has been good, a little slow though. it takes two weeks to get your reward which is a pain but i'd say overall i'm very happy.

I've been with Harris Poll for a couple of years now and I like it. It costs nothing and I've cashed in many points now with 100% success. I've selected e-gift cards from Barnes and Noble and Amazon and have had zero problems. It takes a few days to redeem points but it's worth it. People complain you don't get enough surveys but the trick is to keep one of their emails that has the "look for surveys" link in your inbox and every day, or even a couple times a day click the link and you can get surveys that way. By doing so I get several 100 pt surveys in a day and I'm already due for another $20 Amazon giftcard. Join...it's free stuff!

When I first joined this Company, I would be notified pretty quickly into a survey if I didn't qualify. However, lately, after getting to 99% completed or even getting to the part where they ask questions for classification purposes (when I have answered all the important questions), I receive a notice that I didn't qualify for the survey. In other words, I have given them all the pertinent survey information, but they are not going to reward me for my time. Don't waste your time!

I've been taking surveys for Harris Poll for about 10 years now. Used to have decent prizes you could cash in points for. I've gotten a few nice things over the years.
Now the best thing seems to be Amazon gift certs.
I've gotten a couple of them at $25 each over the past year.
Like most sites their going down hill with less surveys and smaller incentives.

i have been with them a short time about 6 months and only done about 2 surveys

I have done surveys with Harris Poll Online for over 10 years. I loved it when they had decent incentives in fact I got a very nice ice shaver that I have used for years. Now the incentives are just magazine subscriptions and gift cards. I have around 11,000 points which I probably cash in for Amazon gift cards and then unsubscribe largely because now after answering a few questions all I get is message that I don't qualify for the survey, I used to qualify for every survey they sent. Don't know what has happened but I don't like the changes and don't recommend them to anyone. I will look for better survey sights to try my luck with. Again after I turn in these points it will probably be adios Harris Poll Online unless things change quickly.

I've never had a problem with Harris Poll before. Takes a long time to get enough points to cash out, but once you do cash out everything goes smoothly. They USED to only ever send you surveys that you actually qualified for, you'd always get at least 30 points after answering a few questions.

Well...that has now stopped. Now I've been answering what feels like FULL length surveys and not getting ANY points whatsoever afterwards, just a screen that says Sorry you did not qualify for this survey. This to me, is a sign that more bad changes are yet to come. Why would I want to take a full survey from this company and get no points? I don't like survey sites like that.

Harris was one of the first online panels I joined. While it takes quite awhile to earn anything decent, I've never had any problems with them. No glitches, they never shut down my account and I have received every reward I ever redeemed with no problems. If only SurveySpot, Ipsos, MarketViewResearch and others could say the same.

Great site. Few, but very good survey opportunities. Incentives are fair, but with many choices.

They don't send as many invitations as the other companies, perhaps one a week. But I always qualify, and have accumulated enough points to cash out a few $25 giftcards! They are one of the only places that offer giftcards to Land's End, where I like to shop for my son's clothing, so this helps. The surveys aren't too long, and are usually interesting topics.

Solid and do what they say they will. Surveys are unique and easy. Easy peasy. I've been with them for years and cashed out hundreds of dollars worth of stuff.

I have been a member of Harris Poll for close to 3 years now. Over the last several months I have been unable to view my rewards. I have emailed them 3 or 4 times over the last 4 weeks. The first time they gave me a temp password, which did not allow me to view the rewards. I emailed and asked them again about viewing my rewards to no avail. Finally I get a email from them today explaining that they are having problems with the reward process and it can take 1 to 2 months to be corrected. Totally different than the first email.

I belonged to this one for a few years, cashed out twice only. I do believe it was a waste of time. I didn't realize I was only making about .10 per survey. I had so much trouble the last time I got a gift certificate from them, I left the panel. There are better paying ones out there.

harris poll seems to present more interesting topics than other survey sites - and fewer of the horrible boring grids! i like being able to go back and correct entries on a previous page and also very much like seeing results (on an aggregate basis) from survey-takers for that survey

I signed up about 5 months ago, and I used to recieve about one offer a week. Of those surveys I recieve, i've only qualified for a couple. Now, the incentives per survey were good, but there just wasn't enough to amount to anything. I'd recommend to others because it's actually legit, but I think that you have to be the individual they are looking for and to be someone who can wait for their pay-off.

I was with Harris for several years. Their pay rate is not great, I probably cashed out couple of times with $5 amazon card. Surveys often are long.
Last year I changed a job, moved cross country and was way too busy for some time to take any surveys. Last week I got new survey from Harris, took it and found out that all my previous points expired. There was no warning email from them, nothing at all. Why did they send me new invitation, I have no idea. I contacted their customer service, but it's a joke, just some copy/paste reply about their rules. I did not take surveys from other companies also during my move/settling at the new place and all of them were great at reactivating my accounts with full point values.
Bottom line: there are better paying companies, but if you choose Harris watch out for the points expiration.

Surveys are short and easy but after monitoring for 5 months during which I completed every survey, I found a rate of return equal to 14p per week, so it takes a generation to get a reward

great for getting amazon cards, but takes awhile to get enough points. points are rewarded for EVERY survey though and they do pay.

Seem to get very few surveys but they do put the points on almost immediately. Few surveys though and it takes ages to reach a reward which is not that great.
They used to pay you via paypal but seem to have stopped that. Pity as I think that a bit of extra cash always comes in handy instead of the monotonous vouchers that are difficult to spend

I've been on this one for 2 years now and have yet to get enough points to claim anything decent. wow. The surveys seem well done but they come rarely. I check in at all my survey sites to hopefully let them know I'm still interested and don't want to lose my points but honestly I will probably drop this one this year. 2 years and nothing worth writing about, very disappointed in what I thought was a legit company.

I've been a member for several years now, and they use to have great rewards, like toasters, glassware, etc. And I use to always qualify for their surveys. Now however, they have lowered their standards by lowering their rewards to real dumb things that aren't even worth taking the surveys for. Needless to say I will most likely unsubscribe.

Depending on your country the rewards may not be fully stated until you register. Their legitimacy seems confirmed so what are they trying to hide by not fully disclosing their rewards to most international members. The fact is their rewards system is crap or they wouldn't be so ashamed to reveal what they'll actually 'reward' you for your valuable time and effort. Contact them first and ask, or register, checkout their crappy rewards, then unsubscribe... too easy.

When I first signed up I was not given a username or password though I was still sent surveys and was able to complete them. I was not given points because I could not log in, though this was cleared up with customer service shortly. They do not send surveys that often, but I have qualified for all of them. Their rewards are pretty good and they are better than most sites.

Overall, I like Harris Poll Online. You don't have to worry about wasting your time trying to qualify for surveys and then getting kicked out of the survey.

I like the fact that they reward you with points that you can use for other stuff, such as gift cards, rather than just points for sweepstakes (though they do have an option to have you enter your points in for sweepstakes).

What I dislike most about this survey site is that reward points take forever to accumulate. However, it's better than nothing, which is why I've continued to stay with this site.

My other qualm is that my points were erased after nine months of not logging in when they didn't send me surveys. Plus, I honestly had no idea that points expire.

The hipoints system is ridiculous compared to the amount of time spent on the surveys. Very misleading. Total waste of time.

Really enjoy this site, never had a problem, get on avarge 4/5 surveys a month worth in total 400/500+ points which is equal to £4/£5+. Cash out at 2500 points for a £25 amazon voucher. Never get screened out on this site, very easy to use, surveys never to long. Wont make you rich but a really nice steady £50/£60 a year. Well reconmended.

Well............. I can only say they are TERRIBLE - I have lost points because THEY did not send surveys, had problems logging in, then been unable to get a reply from them. The incentives are crap and it would take about 200 years to cash out for anything - points or whatever.
KEEP AWAWY - A COMPLETE WASTE OF YOUR TIME.

I was with them for 3 years. Made $17. Hardly worth the effort except they would have interesting surveys now and them. No problems with them, just not enough earnings to warrant continuing.

Harris Poll is an interesting company. I've been with them two years and I do the surveys casually. Some months I'll do every single one that comes in and others I'll do a few. They send plenty of surveys, but their points system is very slow. You may be lucky to earn a 100 for a survey, but an average is going to be 30-40. 10,000 points is the grand prize ($75 Gift Card). It took me half a year to get enough for a $5 gift card. I am now finally at a $50 Gift Card. You don't have to chose gift cards. They have an online catalog you go to to redeem your points. They call them "Folios". They usually have products close to the amount of the gift card. They recently have put more undesirable prizes like posters. I'd say the surveys are long for me. They usually say 20-30 minutes and will take you maybe 15 minutes to go through it. The longer it takes you the more points you receive. So if it asks what you had to eat one day you are best telling every meal and every single item.

I like HP for the most part and feel bad giving them a somewhat negative review; you always qualify for the surveys they send you, which is major. But the points are really low and the rewards are on the lame side. If you don't mind waiting 2-3 years to build up enough points for something semi-decent, then stick with them. As soon as I make enough to get something good I'm canceling my account, unless they start offering more points and maybe cash incentives.

They used to be a really good site and had good incentives and surveys. Then at some point they were taken over, and all of a sudden i couldnt log in and it said i didnt have an account. I contacted them and they said i hadnt completed a survey for the last 12 months so my points had been wipped. Despite the fact that i had been completing surveys regularly and was still completing then despite them saying i didnt have an account!!
No matter what i said they wouldnt reinstate my points and this made me really mad as i had just reached the limit to claim the £50 incentive. It seems to me that they didnt want to pay out and it was just one big excuse!

I agree with Mary and Joyce. Same happened to me. I lost my points because of so-called inactivity just because they didn't send me surveys.

I have had the same thing happen to me that "MARY" said happened to her. Lost all my points for inactivity! That is inactivity on their part since I never received any surveys for about a year then I finally I contacted them and they told me I had lost all my points due to not responding to surveys. The incentives are worthless now so I guess people are saving up points for anything worth while and I just think this is their way of getting the outstanding balances down so they don't get hit with a big amount of people trying to "cash in" all at once. I know my brother has about a million points and my advise to him is to cash them in before they fold up. Too bad, they had nice incentives in the beginning.

They offer you lame "points that you save up...then the "portfolio" is full of useless junk that you find at a dollar store ( unless you wait for the 30,000 point level and you might get something worth $30 bucks or so....I won't do surveys for a year or more to get to that level.

They pay no money but upon joining, they gave points for surveys, to be redeemed for gifts. I was working toward one of many in the 800 point portfolio but before I could reach 800, they upped the requirement to 1350.

I finally have 1350 points but now all they have is an icard which I can't use because:

I don't use credit cards, so a gift must not exceed $10 including postage

HP used to cover the postage but no more.

HP provides no link showing what's available. The ad says I can select something from Macy's with this $10 but what?

HP told me this is what their members want, but Harris POLL didn't POLL us nor send an email warning us that we now need credit cards.

^^^
You get so much more with other survey sites. Don't waste your time with this one. I'll admit-- it took me a while to realize I was wasting time so I figured I'll just cash out w/ an amazon gift card and opt out. THEY DIDN'T WANT TO SEND ME MY REWARD!!! I contacted cust. serv. numerous times about it and they kept telling me to check my spam. Wen I did get it, I can't even say being with them was worth it. Humph -__-

I figured they were reputable and answered surveys for years. It took a long time to build up points worth anything. I checked less than a year ago and had over 5000 points. When I checked my account today, I found they had deducted over 5600 points effective 2008 due to survey inactivity, which I have no proof to fight.
They never sent a reminder or notification they were revoking the points, but continued to send me weekly (or almost weekly) surveys and even sent me offers to change my points for contest entries. When I contacted them about the matter, thinking it was an mistake. I received a form email stating 'read the fine print' Do not trust them.

I used to be able to cash in rewards about every 6 months for something like a DVD or small appliance or a gift card to a place I actually shop. Now the best offer is an on-line only gift card. You send off for the gift card, then days later get an e-mail to confirm that you'll get it, then days later, get ANOTHER e-mail with a coupon code for your on-line store. Everything else seems to be magazines and posters. What a rip!

Want to work for pennies an hour...then have I got a site for you. Step right up and join the growing world of online survey company employment...which will not even cover the cost of running your computer. Sound too good to be true? Well it isn't.

There overall incentive program is not that great, but now they are sending surveys for my teen to do. Instead of my one a month survey , the teen gets it. With NO points to be issued. Only a sweepstakes entry. They say that my teens opinion is important to them, must not be if only a sweepstakes entry. My teen refuses to do them, and yours should too.

the first 3 weeks I recieved 3 surveys and recieved 230 points plus 100 bonus points. Now going on 5 weeks without a survey. giving it another week or two if I dont recieve another survey I am will unscribe.

I have been taking surveys for 10 years. did not receive any emails from them for months. Not in spam, nowhere. Received surveys again and they took away 10000 points because I had not answered a survey in 6 months.Emailed them and they say it must have been in my spam folder. That was a lot of work for 10000 points!

I've been with them for 6 years now. I have made $220.00. That's not alot of money but they always pay me. The surveys are a bit too long sometimes.

Harris is a good company. Getting them to send surveys is hit or miss. may take month, month and a half between surveys. But all in all a good respectable company.
I reccommend them

Harrispoll is very cheap with their incentives. They send about 1 survey every 2 wks. And most surveys are worth 30 points. The lowest amt to earn a reward is 800 pts. See where I'm coming from-not a good investment @ all. So, it could take a yr or more to get to the lowest rung of surveys. I'm waiting until I get to @ least the 5k level so I can cash out, get something worthwhile and opt out. I have about 1k points to go.

They keep sending me the same survey about cell phones and it is driving me up the wall. It asks the same questions every time. I don't know if they keep thinking I might change my mind about something like maybe I will buy or won't buy a new cellphone in the next six months or year or change cell phone companies or whatever. But I'm sick of it. I like doing surveys to get the Amazon reward certificates to help out with my orders on Amazon to get neat stuff I can't find anywhere else. And all the redundant questions these people ask in this survey always wanting to know my address and my cell phone number? How do I know they won't call me or send me something in the mail? You just really gotta be careful.

Surveys are good, and are sent somewhat frequently, and they dont disqualify you all the time.

The incentives are somewhat low(at least recently). They tell you what you'll earn until the end, so you could take 20 minutes taking a survey for less than dollar.

I would rather earn cash but although this company rewards with points, they are honest. I have been a member for years. Last Christmas I cashed in 5000 points and sure enough received the gift I requested. I still have lots of points left, about 9000. So, even though you are rewarded with points, they add up quickly and you have many choices to cash in on. GOOD COMPANY.

They have the worst survey incentives around I think. It took me 800 points just to receive a $5 Pizza Hut gift card. Hardly seems worth it. I do find some of their surveys interesting though.

I've been taking Harris Poll for almost five years now. Their award plan is great and give you the history of how many surveys you've taken and the point you are awarded. I would recommend anyone to join. The only complaint I have with them is the survey and points they offer in the end, thirty is not alot, they should change it to fifty.

True, you have to earn a LOT of points to get a little gift card. But they make nice birthday gifts to put into cards etc.

They give you 100 points for each survey, and when you get 2500 points (25 surveys) you can get a $20 Amazon.com gift card. No paypal option, but good surveys, All real and no annoying ads.

I've been with these for a few years now and it does take a while to get to the redemption point but they always send surveys regularly.

It has got even better as now you change your points into cash, brilliant.

Recently I was invited to take part on a online forum. I was told I would receive a cheque for £40 and I was ready to wait for what I presumed would be 2 weeks or more but I received an email the next day saying all cheques were being processed and I received it within a week.

I recommend this company.

I really like Harris Poll Online, maybe because it's my first online poll and I've been with them a long time. It does take a while to accumulate points and the prizes can be silly, but they've added PAYPAL as an option and now my points can be turned into CASH!!

the rewards take years to accumulate--the items offered are stupid--either you already have these things or would not want them--I kept accumulating points forever because I did not want anything offered---I wrote them and suggested more gift cards so you could get what you like--no answer!

There are only 2 things I can say; number one, their surveys are extremely long, redundant & boring. Number 2, can anyone believe the amount of points you must obtain & the hours you must put in to get even a small reward? I do think it's a legit company though. I am debating on whether they are worth my time.

This site has some of the longest surveys with the poorest incentives. The time itr takes to do the surveys and the rewards offered make this site a waste of my time. They do not tell you the value of a survey upfront, so you end up doing a long survey for 30 points (average points for a survey). Minimum point redemtion is at 800 ($5.00 level). Waste of time when I do their surveys through another company I get paid cash.

I receive a few surveys from Harris Poll Online a month and they are very lengthy. Surveys have unnecessary long profile questions that redundant for every survey and often seem very unnecessary. Prizes could definetly be better for the surveys that are done. I have seen the surveys I have done in the news before however.

Harris Poll Online is the only survey company I have used that acutally pays off, in full. Twice now, I have requested prizes and they have come to me promptly, with no catches. I have won a hand-held vacuum cleaner (Dirt Devil) and a micro SD memory card. They were good, legitimate prizes with no strings attached. I do many surveys for different companies, and this is the only one to pay off with more than a $5 check after dozens of surveys.

I just cashed in my points today for what will be my final $5 Target GC from Harris Poll. That cost 800 points, which is the equivalent of 8 lengthy surveys (20 minutes or so). Not to mention you don't qualify for many of the full length surveys and still wind up spending over 10 minutes for 30 points a lot of the time. It's a nice company with surveys that function well (despite several questions being repeated each and every survey) but I can't recommend it because I value my time at more than 2 dollars an hour.

I have approximately 2000 points. Might get 1 or 2 survey invitations per month. Only because I have points built up am I continuing to wait. But after I spend them, I will not be back.

Harris Panel is a completely legitimate survey panel that values your opinions at basically zero. As a member for more than a year, I took dozens of surveys just to squeeze a $5 Starbucks gift card out of them. 800 points equals $5 dollars and most surveys pay less than 100 points many as little as 30. Most of the time they don't tell you how many points you are going to get before you take the survey which is unfair to any panelist. If you have a lot of time to waste on your hands and want a free Frappuccino every year, then join this panel.

Ive been a member since 2001. I take a lot of 100 point surveys but it took me 6 years to get to the 15,000 points that I have. The nice thing is I traded in 5k for a crock pot, and that leaves me with 10k which is the highest folio level still. I really enjoy Harris Poll and would reccomend it. Yes it takes a long time, but you really do get these things for free, and their shipping is fast.
Some of the items in the higher folio's i dont think are worth the points, but other things def are. I hope to be part of Harris Poll for another 10 years and I am glad I have been part of them since 2001.

I've been with Harris for a long time (approximately three years.) While payout is good and surveys are plentiful, the incentives themselves are not. As another reviewer mentioned, they change their Folio selection frequently; banking your points for higher-value items is unwise unless you’re close to the required value.

You can’t redeem for cash, and while I did get a polite reply after suggesting a few items for their Folios, none of them were actually implemented (and some, like gift cards worth more than $5, the only denomination that they offer) were no-brainers. Shipping of rewards is also slow--it has taken anywhere from 2-4 weeks to receive my incentives.

Overall, I recommend it with some reservations--register and take a look at their 800-point Folio. If you see gift cards that you like, it's a fairly good site. You might consider flipping through the higher levels, as well...but to this day, I haven't seen anything interesting in them.

i have recently joined the harris polls and this is one of two that seem legit. Earn points and get some prizes.

The problem with Harris Poll Online is that they changed the prizes in their rewards folders before I could earn enough points to redeem the small item I wanted. And what really makes me mad here is that they also upped the number of points required for this item: from 800 (when I signed up) to 1300. I now have 1300 points, but the item was removed from their rewards folder. I joined nearly 3 years ago and have gotten nothing from them.

They do give you points for every survey, even if you don't qualify for the longer ones.

they ask redundant questions at times, and that can be frustrating.

they do pay, they offer better incentives than some, but I wish they were more.

there is some info on better gpts, also surveys and secret shopping on my myspace

I've been with Harris Poll for about 3 years now, and I think they are really great. They send me plenty of surveys, and I get points for every survey I take. Then I can take my points and order stuff out of their catalogues.

Their surveys are not too long or boring either. I would recommend joining their panel.
