Bleh

September 17, 2010 by Brooks from United States

They just don't send many surveys- so that right there says absolutely NO point in joining.

Points for not qualifying

December 5, 2016 by Jill from United States

I like this site although the survey invites are pretty rare. I've only cashed out once, for $5 , but received my reward pretty fast. The surveys are short and different, and if you don't qualify, you still receive a small incentive (5-25 cents).

Dont payout promptly if at all

September 17, 2010 by jay from United States

I've only been with this company for 4 months. In those months I've dilligently completed most of the infrequent surveys they've sent (about every month and a half). For each survey I've completed, I received 'tokens'. 500 tokens is the minimum payout. After waiting to get to the payout level-I was told I'd be sent a $5 gift code on the 15th of the month after the payout level is reached. So, I waited-after reminding them-they sent me a code. That was invalid. I've contacted them to fix the problem to no avail. Now, other members are complaining of the same happening to them. If this company ever does take new members-I'd suggest asking current members if they're being compensated.

Difficult to earn rewards, quick redeemption

January 16, 2020 by kris from United States

While this panel was quick on redemption request it took a year to make $10. I checked daily for survey opportunities and the screenout rate is very, very high. Pass this one, There are surveys that have more satisfying return for effort.

Used to be good

March 10, 2019 by Dorlaina from United States

They changed their format several yrs. ago. Used to be you'd get one $5 Amazon GC a month. Now, it takes many months to earn one gc. Also had a lively political forum, but as people left, that dried up, too.
