There Error & I get Deleted?

January 24, 2020 by John from Canada

I was with this company for many years & did online surveys + real life (large group) focus groups. I was invited to 2 of them within a 4-5 week time span. The first was for a product : Smart Popcorn & the second was for an English Hardware Company that was considering coming to Canada. I got paid for both real life focus groups (In Down Town Toronto). I log into my online account to find it deleted.
It's not my fault that you invited me 2 times within a month!!!

Earned points, the next day they are EXPIRED!!

January 15, 2020 by ashley from United States

If there was an option to upload my screenshot, I would. I earned 105 points on Jan 08, 2020. I log in on Jan 09, 2020 and it says:

Jan 09, 2020, OtherReward, points expiration, -105, 0 (new balance).

That's only less than 24 hours since I earned the points.

I feel cheated. I have tried many survey sites and this is the only one that just erased my points. I was actually excited at first to try this site because I loved the layout of it. I will never trust this site and won't be returning. I know 105 points isn't much, but to me, it is since I need the extra cash to buy little things that I can't afford after paying bills and such.

If someone stole $1.05 from me in person, I'd be upset...it feels the same online too. Stay away from this website.

UPDATE: After contacting them earlier today (Jan 9) about my points, I receive this hours later:

"We have been reviewing our clients' research requirements and, unfortunately, your member profile is no longer suitable for our market research needs. Consequently, your account was deactivated on 2020-01-09.

In these circumstances, your membership cannot be reactivated."

UPDATE: After the above e-mail I have received many emails offering me surveys and a reply back from them. Those survey emails and reply came after the email about account deactivation. I can still log in to my account. Please keep in mind that they ERASED MY POINTS BEFORE SUSPENDING MY ACCOUNT. They are now acting like my points were erased because my account was suspended. This is NOT true. My account was deactivated because I contacted them wanting to know why my points were erased.

Their reply (Jan 10 at 8:27 AM):

"Thanks for reaching out!

We have been reviewing our clients’ research requirements and, unfortunately, your member profile is no longer suitable for our needs. Consequently, your account was deactivated.

All remaining points have been forfeited.

This decision was made for market research purposes only, and we’re sorry if it caused you any inconvenience. The personal information you’ve provided will not be used to contact you and will not be passed to any third parties.

Please also note that we reserve the right to cancel a membership without warning or having to justify the decision afterwards, according to our terms and conditions, which you agreed to when you joined our panel.

Thank you for your past participation!

Regards,

i-Say Panel Support Team"

This is all ridiculous! They won't stop sending me emails for surveys, I can still log into my account and do a survey (I tested it) yet they are still not explaining why they erased my earned points for completing 2 surveys fully. I also had a few cents here and there for surveys I didn't qualify for.

Wasting my time

December 24, 2019 by William from United Kingdom

Constantly get emails telling me a new survey is available. Log on to the site and the survey is no longer available. This happens in 90% of the cases. I've given up bothering. I've contacted support on numerous occasions and the response is always the same.

If I do not qualify for a survey, DO NOT SEND IT TO ME. I will not give you a survey ID because this is an issue you have been made aware of countless times.

I do not have this problem with YouGov.
