Rip off
by Kim, Dec 08 '12

A waste of time in my opinion world! The lead you up the garden path thinking you're through then right near the end...SORRY, YOU DON'T QUALIFY...or....SORRY, WE HAVE ENOUGH PARTICIPANTS ON THIS OCCASION. They use all your answers and dont give out any points worth having. It would take an AGE to get enough to cash out. Don't waste any more of your time guys.

i warn all survey takers to avoid this company. at one point they werent paying anything now they tell you they will give you points and have you answer questions and then tell you they have enough people. i regard this company as dishonest and should not remain in business. avoid this company totally. it is a dishonest scam site that uses people gets opinions doesnt pay at all then tries to trick you into believing you will get points makes you answer an entire survey then says they have enough people. AVOID THIS COMPANY

by Brett, Oct 29 '12

I see that Opinion World and Opinion Outpost among 4 others are all owned by same company "Survey Sampling". How is it okay to say they have quarterly prize drawings and its for all these companies. Check it for yourself.
Anyways.... HIGHLY UN RECOMENDED!

I`ll die of old age before I get sufficient rewards to cash in.
by James, Oct 22 '12

I have been a panel member of Opinion World for some considerable time. I have answered all the surveys that I have been sent and I have mostly been either unqualified for a survey, or had an entry in a draw. I have never cashed in any points during my time with them and my total points for all the effort over about 5 years or so, has been a measly 375.

It is a survey organisation with credibility issues. Pinecone pays a £3 luncheon voucher for each and every survey and it is delivered after about a week. This puts Opinion World nicely into perspective.

This should be the top rated site
by Lee, Sep 30 '12

How Panelbase is ranked the best survey site is beyond me. Opinionworld (for me)is got to be the one at the top. I have been a member for about a year now. I log on most days to the site without waiting for email requests and i tend to get between 1 - 5 Surveys. Yes i do get ' i do not qualify' or ' Survey has reach the required number of response' but even so i have managed to cashout about £350. I payout threw paypal and its instandly into my account.
I am a member of alot of sites (about 25) including most of the top ten listed and i would say i am lucky i have made £30 on each. Apart from Pinecone which i ahve yet to be excepted (Suprise suprise).

I recommend for a certain amount of time
by LNatasha, Aug 28 '12

For a certain amount of time, you can make good money here, once you reach around $100 in total from any of their owned sites, you will start to run into problems.

Several days ago I did 1 survey for $10. Now all I get is prize drawing offers. No money.

by Jeff, Aug 06 '12

I love their "Take A Survey" link. There are always surveys available when I get time to take them. I've been a member of other panels, but you rarely get your rewards as quickly as you do with OpinionWorld.

Customer service is great
by kim, Jul 28 '12

I was having tech problems seeing media in the surveys. I read here that people couldn't get help or where ignored. I emailed the company anyway and they responded immediately and solved the problem quickly. Of course I was too late to get any points but maybe next time.

When it was Survey Spot I received lots of survey's and incentives were pretty good, then they merged the 2 co.'s and I rarely qualify for any of their survey's anymore.

this panel is for bottom-feeders
by Al, May 06 '12

Surveys are tedious, incentive awards are very hard to earn and there are tons of screen-outs. Depending on the client demographic target, you'll be lucky if you earn a total of $10 to $25 for the entire year. A legit survey company that has very low monthly incentive yields, unless of course, you are lucky enough to win one of their sweepstakes.... Don't hold your breath though.

Opinion World aka Survey Spot + more
by Paula, Apr 01 '12

Opinion World is a sub panel for Survey Spot. They also own Opinion Outpost and PCH surveys. They are 4 sub par panels instead of 1 great one. I ran into trouble when they froze my Survey Spot & Opinion Outpost accts. because I had 2 different email addys. Well, DUH! I was perfectly fine until SS took over. Had to choose 1 email for both accts which meant I stood to lose points on one or the other. All of these are basically time wasters.

85% of the surveys they send me earn no points so no money. I asked them if they could only send me surveys that have points and to my surprise they said..."NO".

Fake and absolutely rip-off.
by Claire, Mar 15 '10

Most of their surveys that I've done, the incentives only have 2 options(to donate to charity or to play some stupid game).
Finally after 3 months wait I've received like 6 surveys in which I did qualify for 3.
The third survey that I did was for 150 points and for 25 minutes... And guess what happened after I've finished and click the "Submit" button? the website(as usual) gave me a server error, just like every survey with points incentive that I did with them.

OpinionWorld is FAKE.. a rip-off... they want your opinion but they don't give you those promised points, they disconnect you when you click the "Submit" button.

OpinionWorld pays out "INSTANTLY" when you cash out
by Frank, Jan 22 '10

I have to say I'm very impressed with OpinionWorld
I decided to cash out my points today & they use Paypal as a payment method...& as soon as I cashed out..no more than 2 secs later I received an email stating that the money was in my account...:)
Other survey companies need to follow suit with them & pay us right away when we cash out....This company gets a big "THUMBS UP" from me....though they only offer up a limited number of surveys each month...they are ligit...Green

Do not pay
by anna, Jan 03 '09

They send out loads of surveys but never pay. I have been waiting for nearly two years for payments for a product test and two surveys. They never reply to emails, even the survey police did not get anywhere. If they don't pay us do they send the money to the charities?

Surveys in abundance
by Stephen, Oct 08 '08

You'll get loads of surveys from these people but your reward is a charitable donation and an entry in to a prize draw optimistically called 'instant win'. Occasionally you'll get a survey that pays cash to your PayPal account using your Opinionworld e-mail address. If it's different to your PayPal one you won't see the money. You're stuffed if you have a problem because they do not appear to reply to e-mails.
