Fun Surveys, but whats the point without incentives?

December 3, 2010 by TM from Canada

The surveys are probably the most fun out of all the survey companies, but in the end are absolutely pointless considering how difficult their redemption system is. They took a year to set that up, so I honestly doubt that they will be worth using in the future since they obviously don't care about their members.

BAD survey site, Stay away!!

The rewards system there is a joke, I haven't been paid, even though they said they paid me. I have ZERO use for this survey site!!!

All that is bad about the internet!

Chances to win a sweepstakes is NOT pay for the work you do, no matter how 'fun' the surveys are. Find legitimate, honorable companies. The more members they have, the more surveys they can get!

Not any good anymore :(

Hotspex recently took away their point exchange program and you can now only trade points for sweepstakes. I've been waiting for quite a long time for them to add a point system (they sent an email to their members when they first changed saying a new system was coming.) But now their website only lists the sweepstakes as options, so I guess this is it. I'm closing out my account as sweepstakes are a waste of time. So I dropped all 5000 of my points in for the laptop sweepstakes, which bought me 80 entries, and of course I didn't win. I can't find an option online for deleting my account, but I'm hoping that "unsubscribe" is the same.

Don't waste your time on this one. The surveys are nice quality, but there is no payback.

nothing for nothing

I just finally unsubbed from this site. It was one thing when they still were giving out points that could (after a fashion) be exchanged with points.com rewards. But now you don't get anything at all.

The surveys are too goofy to seem legit anyway, and I was with them for years.
