Account was closed in ONE day!

February 21, 2021 by Grace A from United States

I signed up for i-Say on December 28th; I confirmed my e-mail address and filled in some profile info. The next day, without ever seeing a survey or participating in any way, I received a message that my account had been deactivated. It said:

"We have been reviewing our clients' research requirements and, unfortunately, your member profile is no longer suitable for our market research needs. Consequently, your account was deactivated on 2020-12-29.

In these circumstances, your membership cannot be reactivated."

I contacted them, asking WHY?!...

...and two months later, I'm still waiting for their reply...

I'm having a hard time understanding how my profile is 'no longer suitable' for them--but it was 24 HOURS earlier! I'd avoid this site like the plague. If they ban a brand-new member out of the blue, for a reason that makes no sense, I just can't recommend it.

AVOID

February 12, 2021 by Scott from United States

I would give this panel - 5 if it were possible. They qualify you for a survey and when you finish than suddenly they have enough people and you are disqualified. Either that or a "technical error" never fails regardless of what website you are using they are one of the worst!

Hi Scott,

We’re sorry about the bad experience.

You may be unable to complete some surveys due to slow servers and operating systems. Moreover, your browser settings may sometimes block the survey page or our servers may be too busy to respond.

However, please contact us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to help.

Kind regards,

Horrible to long-time members

January 21, 2021 by Rory from United States

I was a member of i-Say for almost 10 years, and had participated in countless surveys and at-home product tests wit 100% honesty and integrity.

They suddenly canceled my membership due to "data concerns" and would not let me redeem my points. I emailed with "Naomi" and she was very unhelpful.

I was also in the middle of 2 at-home product tests, and had spent considerable time on them, now I have no idea what to do with them (body wash, and pet treats).

Horrible way to treat a long-time member.

stay away from

December 29, 2020 by george from United States

As i have been a member of this site for awhile, i had accepted that some of their surveys have less than accurate times and are monotonous, but they pay reliably so i stuck around, until i logged in recently to see all of my points were labeled EXPIRED and they got back to me and said my input was in theory was questionable, of course, WITHOUT any examples of TANGIBLE PROOF

SO, they took 32 dollars of my earnings, and did not allow me to cash out my earnings, WOW,

Survey sites beg for honesty, and seem to provide NONE

One of the Worst

December 10, 2020 by Roxanne from United States

I belong to several survey sites. This is one of the worst. Every survey comes back with an "Oops" message. In over a month I have not been able to reach the redemption phase!!
