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.

Terrible Customer Service & Program

December 5, 2019 by Curtis from United States

I joined the i-Say panel and was honestly quite impressed. They had a system and site that appeared to work well, was easy to navigate, etc. I completed surveys on the site for about a week and then I started running into a problem. Whenever I could click on a survey invitation link, it would get to the point of validating my profile and then it would say "We are not running any surveys right now. Please come back later." I reached out to customer service after this happened a couple of times, and the got back to me asking for the specific survey ID. Because the invitations disappear off the dashboard once you click them, I responded that I didn't have it, but the issue had occurred approximately 8 more times since my initial outreach.

After over a week went by, I received a boilerplate e-mail response stating that their area of research doesn't match my profile, so my membership had been deactivated. I followed up to see if they could clarify if their research area had changed since I had been receiving and completing surveys before without any problems. I also then noticed that they had cleared out all of my reward points and drawing entries as part of this "deactivation". I sent a quick follow up note asking for a valid explanation of why that had occurred.

The response I then received was (clearly another boilerplate) that they reserve the right to terminate any account for fraudulent activity and that all rewards are forfeit in this case. I was taken aback at this statement, since I am not (and have never been made) aware of any fraudulent actions on my part and the initial e-mail indicating my account was deactivated specifically stated: "This decision was made for market research purposes only, and we’re sorry if it caused you any inconvenience." At this point, I have no desire to see my account reinstated based on my interactions with their customer service team, but I wanted to share my experience with their apparently inept customer service team for others who are looking at signing up for the panel.

Poor customer service

November 21, 2019 by Lesley from United Kingdom

Been receiving email surveys for years. All of a sudden since 29 July 2019 not received any email surveys. Tried to log into my account but keeps saying my email address isn’t recognised even though this has never been changed. Therefore can’t try to change me password either. Tried to email-no response. Have written messages on Instagram and messenger with no response. Have contacted the customer service number who told me Head office can only be reached by email as they’re in Russia (I think). I have points that equate to voucher value but can’t get on to use them.

Don't know what happened

November 10, 2019 by Frances from United States

I haven't gotten a single survey invitation in almost a month. My email address, my computer, my account, my home address - nothing has changed. I use to do well by them. I don't know what happened.
