The surveys themselves are quite short, ranging from 2 to 20 minutes in length and award cash upon successful completion - there are no complex points systems to worry about as cash is awarded each time a survey is finished.

Generally speaking, much of what I have said previously about this company is still the case. Their surveys are brief, to the point, often interesting and it is extremely rare to be "screened out". The low payment threshold allows the panellist to be paid within a short timescale and the actual transaction is virtually instantaneous.
However, the hourly rate of reward seems to be falling behind what is being offered by some other sites. I'm not sure how much longer I will continue with this panel as I don't feel the equivalent of £3 per hour ( an approximation by own calculation ) is a fair exchange for my time and effort.
Previous Review: The majority of surveys I receive from Crowdology are short, punchy and fun. They pay only pennies for these brief, snappy questionnaires but when you calculate this into the equivalent of an hourly rate they actually compare well with other sites. Best of all, their payout threshold is a mere £4 so if you combine this with the fact that they send surveys every few days, it isn't long until you can claim your reward. When you do request payment (Paypal), the transaction goes through in minutes. Many of their surveys come in the form of short quizzes and they really are fun to take.
From time to time slightly longer surveys paying up to £2 (ish) also come along.
So to summarise, you won't get rich by offering your services to these guys, but you will be sent surveys frequently. You will rarely be bored with their fun, quick surveys. You will reach your (low) payout threshold very quickly and when you do you will be paid almost instantaneously.
One of my favourites.

Been with the site several years and do get survey invites quite often. Once at the site from the email link , rarely do you actually go straight into a survey. Instead , you are put into a Cint router. Up will come a screen with a survey length and payout. When you click to take it , almost every time it comes back with a screen saying that you did not qualify and they are locating another. At times , the process seems to go on ad nauseum going through the same cycle. Rarely do you get to actually do a survey. That can get tedious at times.
inquiries to support rarely gets any response. However , cash out requests usually are taken care of promptly (1-3 days). There is a small fee with Paypal that does not seem to be on most other sites.
One recent issue that is bothersome and which the site does not seem to do anything about is that periodically upon completion of a survey , instead of returning to Crowdology to credit , it goes to Lifepoints Panel. Naturally , the Lifepoints site has no knowledge of the survey since they never initiated it and you get no points. This may be a problem with Cint and not the sites as both use it. Support at Crowdolgy has never responded to inquiries and no credit is ever received. A bit annoying!

This survey panel rocks. surveys don't come to you very often but they do come in payments are made instantly to your paypal account mine was anyway.
Edit: 4/29/20 I would have contacted them over but there was no info to give them on the survey but when i finished and didn't get paid for it and i did the entire survey. With no info to give them like a survey number it makes it hard to contact them over things like this.

I didn't really enjoy this panel. Most, if not all, of the surveys were through samplicious and I never have any luck with them. The cash out minimum is low and they do pay.

This survey site is definitely overrated. I have done surveys where I answered so many questions that there is no way I didn't qualify and my data was kept. I wrote them about this and was told that this happens sometimes and they are sorry. It has happened three separate times. I hate when survey sites do this, it's a waste of my time and energy and makes me leery of doing anything for them. I'm not sure how Crowdology got in the top ten and it makes doubt some of validity of surveypolice's list.

Hi,Thank you for your feedback We are disappointed to hear that you have been screened out of surveys at a late stage. Our support team is usually very diligent when it comes to this and reviews each case individually to make sure that anyone who has been screened out at a significantly late stage of the survey is awarded for their time. This is bad practice in survey design and something we are committed to eliminating. As third party survey providers sometimes use our panel, we are aware that this sometimes occurs. We rely on panellists letting us know through our support team, so that we can pass on information to the relevant people.
We would appreciate it if you could email [email protected] and mention that it is in reply to the SurveyPolice review and we will make sure one of our panel managers looks into your case for you.
Thank you again for your feedback
Kind regards
Andrew White
Panel Manager
