waste of time
by linda, May 15 '13 Way too many times have I spent 5-10 minutes on a survey, seemed like i had answered all their possible questions, hit 'send completed survey' and get a response that I don't meet the criteria. With most other survey companies, you will know within 30 seconds if you meet the criteria or not; but with Toluna you can waste 10-15 minutes and then be kicked out. As soon as I get my points, i'm cashing out. |

This Panel is the Dredge of the Earth
by jeffrey, Apr 26 '13 Well I guess I should start out the review with a positive. They do offer plenty of surveys. But at rates frequently less then 2 cents a minute well unless I can hop in a time machine back to 1950, that is a complete waste of time and energy.

!! Avoid !!
by jane, Apr 18 '13 If the comments below haven't put you off signing up with this site then your a fool to yourself. Firstly the incentives are low, so low sometimes it's insulting. 30 minute survey for points that amount to about 30/40p. Secondly, points remain pending for months on end making it hard to cash out. Thirdly, you don't always get your rewards and contacting customer service is often more hassle than it's worth. Finally, your points expire. I have completed survey after survey with this site and just when I fall a little short of redemption some of my points expire. Because some surveys pend for months it means you can never reach redemption. If I ever finally accumulate enough points to cash out a £15 voucher (and it's a big if) then I'm outta here! |

Horrible
by dave , Mar 29 '13 Toluna took over another company that was very legit and i liked.They transferred my points,i kept doing surveys and the points added up but then one day all my points were gone.They said i wasn't active but i save all surveys i complete and anything relevant to survey sites.I showed them i was active by sending them confirmations of completed surveys.They never responded back to me.Granted,i didn't do every survey but i did enough to keep active.All those points gone and time gone which i consider time fraud on their part. |

Clever Tactics to avoid payment
by David, Mar 28 '13 They have a 16 month points expiry policy No option to suspend should tou be unable to participate due to ill health for example. Toluna have an available surveys list. Each of these surveys is clearly marked with a reward points total. One can then click any of these surveys to be entered into the screening process. However, most of these surveys will screen out as the quota has been met and the survey is now closed. You are then given the option to take another survey. Beware! They will not credit you with points for any of these surveys unless you note the details and complain. Usually, they just award prize draw entries. Quite a few of these surveys will be classified in your log as a quick survey, for which you get a paltry 15 or 30 points. They also list most of your completed surveys as pending for weeks on end. Obviously hoping some of your points will expire before they award more, thus preventing you from cashing out! Conclusion It's a thinly disguised scam and to be avoided |

by tony, Mar 24 '13 Toluna has deteriorated drastically! The points for completed surveys are too low. You can spend 15-30 minutes on an item and then be told that you don't qualify. Points that are earned are not credited. There are other, more reputable survey sites. Stay away from this one!!!! |

You Poor Suckers
by Fred, Mar 24 '13 Lucky, i only joined this pathetic, gross violator of human "good faith" 2 weeks ago. I was bombarded with surveys, thinking wow, this is good, after all i was going to get paid. I mean look at all these points, I must be making heaps! ... WRONG!!! 3000 points = $1.00Au After 2 weeks i'd scrounged up a whole $2.40Au Plus the pending garbage, (whatever!) Anyway something made me really sus, I done a survey on another site call it "X" and it was worth $10Au to me for about 15 mins, The very next day Toluna invited me to a survey, as it started a logo of site "X" popped up, it was the exact same survey i done the night B4. "X" must have outsourced it to fill the quota? Here is the pisser, Toluna offered 5000 dumbarse points = $1.66Au, That says it all folks, I started "scam hunting" Toluna, and what do you know ... I found: http://www.flickr.com/photos/schoschie/3312065998/?page=5 as well as here! Thx to all your many wise words, hope my insight helps someone else too! |

Hard work
by Pat, Mar 16 '13 I receive a torrent of surveys from this company, but most are substituted for another because have been withdrawn. Frequently answer about 10 questions before being screened out. The rewards are very, very low. Finally got £25 after years but the Amazon voucher took about 3 months and was not actually sent to my inbox - I had to make yet another enquiry before I could redeem. |

Stay away, terrible
by Eric, Feb 26 '13 I have been doing surveys for this company since 2010. The first year it was ok...I was able to cash out about 2 times every month. After 2011 the things were chancing.....points started be lower. Anyways, I continued with them. During 2012 this company "improved" their site look. And the change was dramatically terrible. The surveys are extremely long with extremely low incentive( I'm talking about 20 cents for 40 minutes survey). In addition, this company is popular by closing accounts to their members without consistent reasons. Anyways, they try to find any reason to close the account they want. If your account is selected, well...bad luck to you. Now I can cash out only like once every months. Each check takes about 8 weeks to be received. What more can I say....quotas full in just minutes, survey errors. This is the worst survey site in history. |

They changed over the past 1-2 years and increased threshold for cash out by two fold.Qualifying is hard now and they delete points not used w/in a year of receiving, if I cant qualify much how can I get enough points to cash out.

Massive Waste of Time
by Ryan, Jan 17 '13 Have to have 60,000 points to cash out. If you don't cash out in a given time period you loose accumulated points. Good luck getting there. 95% of surveys offer less than 3000 points (1$) for a 20-30 minute survey. Disqualified 90% of the time anyway. I dumped them after finding out I lost 16,000 points because I didn't cash out. The thing is I couldn't cash out because I had only accumulated 38,000 points. Stay away from these crooks. |

I have more friends on tolunas then facebook. and we buy little gifftys to our friends in good gestures with a private message.people stop complaining, your getting more from tolunas then any other website. tolunas is the nicest place to come and visit when you are lonely.and they do pay you for even taking there surveys.if you have a problem with that they have a customer service to write to.and they do get back to you very fast.they offer so much. how can anybody complain. i just don't understand it.you get so much more than facebook at least you get a chance to earn rewards, from taking surveys and updating your profile. and meeting nice people. toluna you set this up quite well im pleased and grateful. |

Slow accummulating points, but OK
by Cynthia, Dec 17 '12 Toluna is far from he best panel, but also far from the worst. It's a survey 'broker', not an actual research company. Many survey invites with frequent screenouts & "redirects"; many surveys are repetetive. The "sponsored" mini-surveys have small point values, but are automatic & do add up. I keep track of completed surveys by date & number & check point balance a couple of times a week. Customer service for errors is slow & varies in effectiveness. Check payments usually arrive in about 3 weeks. |

Not worth my time, and they cheat
by Kristin, Sep 18 '12 You get lots of invites, but very seldom qualify. The threshold for cashing in points is way too high and they cheat you out of points you earn. I have completed at least 6 two-part surveys where you are supposed to get 6000 points for the first part and 15000 for the second. I would receive the 6000, but was never credited for the 15000 unless I saved the survey number, waited the 8 weeks they require, emailed them multiple times, got back excuses for another 4 weeks, and finally received credit without any notice or further contact (sour grapes?) I quit them with over 30000 points still in my account and another 30000 owing. They just aren't worth the time. |

Finally had it!
by LNatasha, Jul 27 '12 What happened today was the last straw. I took about four surveys, two of them waited until the last question to decide that I wasn't what they were looking for. The LAST question. They couldn't figure out they didn't want me before I spent 30 mins on each survey? The LAST question and sorry we're not looking for you. You asked me about 75 questions each, I pass 74, and then on 75 I'm not what you're looking for? Wow, I just wasted an hour! It wasn't even questions on the actual topic that screened me out, they asked me how much I make and I guess they didn't like it. Why save this question for last if it can disqualify you? |

Will Cancel Soon
by Stephanie, Jun 12 '12 I've been a member for a decade. I used to like Greenfield, but I can't stand Toluna. Points take forever to be rewarded (if they get added at all). They don't pay well per survey (1300-1600 points usually) and you need 60,000 points to cash out $20. I have been getting disqualified a lot more frequently, so it's going to take me until the end of the year to cash out! That's just a guess, but it seems likely. As soon as I am able to cash out I am going to cancel my membership. The surveys are boring and about things I don't care about at all. That wouldn't matter if they paid better, but it is what it is. I am very unhappy with this site. |

To Hell with Members
by Jonathan, Apr 18 '12 They publish the full names of members on the internet for self-promotion in violation of member privacy. They pay the lowest rates of any site. Surveys take longer than estimated, are usually boring, and you get screened out after many questions. Points take well over 1 month to show up & often expire before you collect enough to redeem or fail to show up at all. Complaints are often get no response. Vouchers usually take 2 months to show up. I've had to wait as long as 4 months. Members have often been deleted and their points forfeited for making legit complaints. Their boards are full of trolls and clones but they censor people expressing legit opinions. One member boasted of lying to qualify, eg listing himself as having one child of every age. So much for quality control for their customers. |

beware of points expiration...
by christine, Mar 18 '12 Frequents screen outs, often after spending a lot of time on qualifiers, or even after having completed most of a survey. I had gotten in the habit of saving up my survey rewards and lost $70 not noting their one year expiration policy. Now i'm careful to redeem as soon as i meet the $20 minimum required for a check - which takes about four weeks. |

3,000 points equals 1 dollar
by Johnnie, Mar 13 '12 Toluna is not as good as before the change of hands. They send surveys that don't pay much and take a lot of time and expect you to be excited about it. I recently received a survey invite that said: "Passionate about 2,500 points, survey length 45 minutes" Well that amounts to 66 cents. I don't do surveys that pay pennies for 30, 45 minutes. Toulnas point system requires 60,000 points to cash out at $20.00, 3,000 points = $1.00. 1,000 points equal 33cents and I don't want to spend my mind trying to figure how many pennies are in 15 points.

As in any panel to get the points is a kind of slow but Toluna pays fast and in an easy way, besides they have other options to get the points like the sponsored surveys that give 15 or 30 points just to answer a simple question. You won't get rich doing surveys but you'll get some extra money. I am in other pannels and I hate some of them, so belive me when I say Toluna is good. |

You Got to Be Freaking Kidding Me
by Harvey, Dec 12 '11 I have been participating in online surveys for 5 years. I hold a graduate degree in pyschology. I have been trained to administer and interpret various psychological tests; consequently, this specialized university training combined with years of experience provides me with a little more insight than the average bear when it comes to understanding surveys. Considering the limited depth of the information most surveys are trying to obtain from paticipants, it does not have to take 30+ minutes to determine whether someone is appropriate for a survey. Toluna is full of ..... and/or they have idiots writing their survey. |

I do not understand the poor ratings
by Lorna, Nov 13 '11 I seem to be among the unfortunately too few to have had good experiences with Toluna. I guess the people who have had poor experiencse have had too good expectations for them. I was with Your 2Cents before Toluna bought them and while I liked getting paid by Your 2 cents frequently, Toluna could be much worse. I was able to choose the incentives I wanted and I did receive them in a timely manner. It only took approximately four weeks to receive my most recent payment. I average doing a few surveys a month with them, but they are consistent and I do not get mad if I am screened out of one, or I am too late to take one. My suggestion is have some patience with Toluna and make sure your profile is filled out accruately. You will get rewarded in due time. |

by booke, Sep 28 '11 After reading some of the reviews I was kind of nervous to try them out, but I gave them the benfit of the doubt and signed up. I receive invitations to take surveys almost every day and have aready racked up a decent amount of points. Will cash out next month! The incentives are okay, but all I really want is cash anyway! Definitely recommend it1 |

90 minute survey for a prize draw.
by Lynne, Sep 16 '11 I started to take a survey that had a point incentive but I was re-routed so many times, I ended up taking a 90 minute interactive survey for a simple prize draw!! I am furious this was not stated at the start of the survey and it is utterly ridiculous for these panels to think any of us are here for free!! I hate this site!! Freaking rip off artists is all they are!! |

Now the lowest of the low
by Doug, Sep 14 '11 Toluna was a top money maker for me if not a Well paying site, Over the last 8 months the errors and sweeps were mostly things of the past, now though Their incentives have hit new lows, the sweepstake only surveys are back, as are the errors that prevent crediting incentives, They take forever to mail your check and often and at least a couple of times haven't sent it. I'd avoid this company they're as crooked as a $3.00 bill |

Mixed feelings
by Rachel, Sep 05 '11 I have mixed feelings about Toluna. They DO pay and they are definitely legitimate. I even won a $250 monthly sweepstakes once (you cash it out like regular earnings and unfortunately I couldn't cash out the whole amount at one time, had to cash out $240 and then lump the other $10 with other earnings to cash out at $20).

by kirsty, Aug 02 '11 NOT WORTH YOUR TIME AT ALL. I HAVE BEEN WITH THEM FOR A FEW YEARS BUT THEY ARE NOW REFUSING TO SEND ME MY VOUCHERS AS MY 'ADDRESS DETAILS ARE NOT CORRECT AND THEY DONT HAVE TO SEND THEM TO ME NOW AS A RESULT' I WENT ON AND COPIED AND PASTED MY DETAILS TO THEM FROM MY PAGE AND THEY RESPONDED WITH THE SAME AS BEFORE. SURVEYS ARE OFTEN VERY LONG, YOU DONT GET HARDLY ANY INCENTIVE FROM THEM, THATS WHEN YOU DO QUALIFY (YOU HAVE TO ENTER YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IN ABOUT 6-7 TIMES UNTIL YOU GET ONE THEY ALLOW YOU TO CONTINUE) I HAVE BEEN ACTIVE ON THE SITE FOR A FEW YEARS YET I AM STILL CLASSED AS A 'NEW MEMBER'. WHEN/IF YOU DO RECEIVE A VOUCHER THEY COME THROUGH A FEW MONTHS AFTER ORDERING THEM, THEY OFTEN MISS OME IN BETWEEN. CUSTOMER SERVICE IS TERRIBLE TAKES MONTHS AGAIN TO GET A REPLY THATS IF YOUR LUCKY ENOUGH TO EVEN GET ONE, NEVER HAD ANY PRODUCT TESTS FROM THEM PERSONALLY. STEER CLEAR-SUCH A WASTE OF TIME. |

Toluna keeps $20 checks coming!
by Jill, Jun 23 '11 I love Toluna. It is one of my top 5 survey sites. I like the social aspect of Toluna with all the polls and opinions. I had been just taking the sponsored polls, but I've gone in and read more about how the social points system works and I've started posting my own polls and opinions. I can't wait until the end of the month now to see how many points I will start getting for the polls and opinions as well as for all the surveys that I've been qualifying for and taking. It seems as though as soon as I receive one $20 check, I've already got 1 or 2 more payouts processing. It usually takes about 2 weeks to get the checks. So, you just have to keep going back and visiting Toluna to see if there is more you can do there. They don't send emails to you very often. So you have to check on their site more. |

Don't Waste Your Time
by Reta, Feb 11 '11 I have been a member since '07 with Your 2 Cents. Toluna surveys are very hard to qualify for and then the incentives you receive are shameful. It got to the point that I never qualified for a survey so I had to earn all my remaining points by doing sponsored questions. And I finally earned 60,000 points to cash out and I have received my check and I am OUT of there. So very glad to be free of this survey site. I would discourage anyone from joining Toluna. |

Mixed Feelings towards Toluna
by Kathleen, Jan 27 '11 I became a member of Your2Cents in 2003 and stuck with the panel when they became Toluna in 2009. I really much preferred the clear dollar amounts that Your2Cents provided as incentives instead of the points Toluna offers as it's not intuitive to think 3,000 points is the equivalent of $1. When I contact customer service about survey incentive or payment problems, sometimes they're great. I filed 3 inquiries in December 2010 and they were all responded to in a timely fashion. However, I currently have 2 inquiries on file for January 2011, one of which has been pending for over 2 weeks, and I have yet to get a response. It's really frustrating, especially as in the past two week, I have taken at least 2 surveys, gotten all the way to the end after 15-20 minutes, and then am told that "I do not qualify" and will only receive a lousy sweepstakes entry. I understand that survey panels have to screen people, but a 10+ minute screening process is absurd. |

A lot of surveys and... problems...
by Anna, Jan 12 '11 I recomend, ONLY if you are really patient. About a half a year ago they overtook the best panel, I was a member of: Ciao. After that sad incident, they haven't worked actually for about two months. E-mails havn't been answears, payments havn't been made and surveys didn't worked mostly. After that time, it turned a bit better, but I feel treated unfair: I haven't been provided with any information, regarding my pending rewards from Ciao, that were souposed to be paid by Toluna. Some of them were, but I don't know, how many were not. And Ciao was paying with cash via PayPal, while Toluna gives you only some vouchers... |

Persistent Payment and IT Issues
by keith , Dec 06 '10 This site took many months to provide credit for poll and opinion topic postings that were to be credited monthly, then did not follow through with promised resolution dates.

by Kala, Oct 15 '10 I'm 8 months pregnant and not working, so I had the free time to waste on their lengthy surveys. They give time estimates before you take the survey (usually 5-30 minutes to complete), and even the 5 minute surveys take 15 minutes or more to complete. Who estimated these times, I wonder?

one of the worst
by Mary, Sep 16 '10 For the few surveys I qualify for & complete with Toluna, there have been several where I did not receive the incentive. After this started happening too many times, I started keeping track of the surveys I completed, so I could put in a request for the points. It takes weeks to hear back and most requests are denied. It also takes weeks for the incentives to be posted. I can hardly wait to get to the next cash-out level, receive my check (which also takes weeks to come) & cancel my account! |

give your opinion for free
by lynn, Jun 01 '10 I got another typical invite from Toluna. Spend 30 minutes for 900 points. Do the math. It takes 3000 points for $1.00. When it was My 2 Cents it was a decent company. Now it just is insulting. Customer service is a form letter that is sent out 3 weeks later. And if your not credited for a survey it's "Oh, Well" It is quite common to spend 20 minutes in a 30 minute survey just to be told "Unfortunately you do not qualify..."

They do pay and worth the time.
by Melissa, Mar 26 '10 I have been a member since 2/13/10 and have cashed out twice for a total of $40.00. I need 3,000 more points to cash out again for a total of $60.00, which I should get within the next 3 or 4 days. If you use paypal you get your money within 4 to 5 business days. There are some surveys that you don't get credit for, I think it's because the company who you did the survey for didn't think you were honest or didn't take time to read it throughly. Overall, you get credit for at least 98% of them. You need 60,000 points for $20.00 but they aren't that hard to get. You get 99 points by making 80 word comments to others topics. If you get 20 comments to your topic you get 500. I'm totally satisfied with them and the extra money is great. |

They let me complete the survey but I was 'unqualified'. Save your time and energy and cross these loosers off your list. |

PayPal users Payments sent 1 time a week
by Angela, Feb 24 '10 When you reach the payment threshold they will deposit to PayPal 1 time a week so you arn't waiting forever like Surveyhead (3 months)! They have mergered with Greenfield (formerly My 2 Cents) and the growing pains are over so they run smoothly. You can submit your own surveys in their community and even link them to your social networking sites. You can also create your own opinion topics for people to just voice their opinions. If they are on Social Issues you may even be paid points (toward your payments) if your survey qualifies. Great network and great company! |

To add insult to injury they have raised cash out from 30,000 points ($10) to 60,000 points ($20). Need to complete very lengthy tedious surveys at $1 each (worth much more) & also anticipate many no point surveys with technical difficulty. Not worth it. I am trying to reach cash out as I have 30,000 points. You can redeem 45,000 points ($15) for a VISA but they deduct $2 so you net $13.

Since I didn't receive it then, I called back and was told actually this week was the eighth week. I told them that they are the only survey that takes that long to send payment and that was not a good way to keep panelists. Especially since I requested payment from another company the same time and I received that payment over a month ago. They don't really seem to care if I stay or leave. I will be leaving them as soon as I receive my payments. Complete waste of time. Almost impossible to qualify for surveys and when I do, a lousy $1.00 a survey is mostly what I end up with? |

by Ana, May 12 '09 I have been a member of Your 2 Cents since October 2008. I have not received a single survey from them. I have been checking their website for over 3 months and there has not been a survey for me to answer. I have completed all of the profiles, but I still do not get any surveys. I don't know if they are still in business. My balance is $0.00 as of May 2009. I have not made any money with these scam artists. STAY ALWAY FROM YOUR 2 CENTS!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Good pay-don't qualify for most
by jay, Apr 20 '09 I like your2cents-but I usu don't qualify for about 80% of the surveys they release. They pay pretty good- ~ $1-3 per, but again qualifying is a problem. They also don't have paypal & getting payment takes @ least a month. My latest payment took exactly 8 wks. I've earned $30 this yr-according to them. So, it's worth the slow pay if @ the end of the yr. I will have earned an aver. of $120. |

Always count on $1
by Sonya, Apr 08 '09 I'vce been with this company for 5 years. Like everyone else, I used to do pretty good. Then I cashed out, and 3 months later did not have my check. I was told that the accounting guy took a leave of absence, so no checks went out for 2 months. What? How many people do you have at your company that cant write checks? Sounded ridiculous to me. OH, and the whole make $1-$5 for a survey, I have NEVER gotten more than $1. 30 minutes for $1 is a waste of time. I dont even bother with them anymore. Now they changed to points, lowering the low money they used to pay anyway. |

Not like it used to be...
by Roxanne, Feb 17 '09 Your 2 Cents was the very first survey site I ever signed up with, and I used to get surveys all the time. I hardly ever get surveys anymore, it has taken me almost a year to get to my $10 to cash out.

They Do Pay It Just Takes Way To Long!
by Marzetta, Feb 04 '09 Your2Cents is a legit company with legit surveys and they do pay you they recently raised the payout from $5.00 to $10.00 which isn't a smart thing to do when you take foreveer to pay people their incentive. They need to offer paypal instead of sending out checks it seems that your check is pending for 2 months before its released to you for that reason I rated them low on the incentive scale also they usally offer 1-3 dollars for a 40 minute survey if they go higher its usually an hour long and very repetitive questions rarely do I get the full amount I can spend half an hour or even 40 minutes and get 1 or 2 dollrs they always say up to whatever the dollar incentive is so you really never know what your going to get until you complete the survey. |

So far so good.

Mixed feelings.
by Robert, Oct 30 '08 A tenative "yes" to this site. Only a couple of survey opportunities received each month though. Some are higher value surveys of $7.00 and up, but usually get disqualified from completing them. The $1 to $3 surveys are mostly the norm for full completion. Overall its an "OK" site, if you have some time to kill. Barb: Receipt of payments are a bit slow. Laurel: But improving at the time of this posting. |

Used to be Good
by Tammy, Sep 24 '08 I used to get surveys all the time and when I requested a check they were pretty consistent with payments but now they are messing up. I requested a $10 payment on May 22 and the check is still pending. I have sent two emails to them and receive the form letter back that someone will contact but so far no one has. Also they don't send emails that I qualify very often any more. |

What happened?
by Molly, Sep 04 '08 Like others have posted, this was the first survey panel I ever joined. Years ago I used to do pretty well with them and cashed out fairly often. Now I probably receive 1 or 2 surveys a month...if that! Surveys are lengthy and while you're promised $1-3 if you complete the survey, it seems like I always get $1 for my time which is hardly worth it. I still do their surveys IF I don't have other "better paying" ones to do. I would recommend them just because they do pay. |

Haven't goy any in a while
by Karla, May 12 '08 Just sent Your 2 Cents an e-mail asking why I don't receive more e-mails from them. I don't even see any available surveys on their website. Don't know what is wrong. I love Your 2 Cents - they're first survey company I signed up with!! |

I agree with above statements
by Bryan, Jan 24 '08 Suveys if you qualify are quite long for incentive but that is a matter of opinion.

Hit or Miss
by Albert, Dec 02 '07 I have cashed out twice. The only problem I notice is Your 2 Cents tends to send many surveys lasting 20-25 minutes for $1-$3 reward if you qualify. That is a lot of time for such a small incentive. Then out of the blue you get one for $10 of course harder to qualify the higher the incentive. |

you do get paid
by Dave, Oct 15 '07 I just received my check from this company last week. They usually take about 5 weeks from the day I submit the request, which is pretty fast since their site states 6-8 weeks.

no luck
by Dan, Sep 13 '07 I have had poor luck with this company. They hooked me up with a "partner" and I did an extensive phone survey and I never got paid.
