Just to be unbiased I will give the PRO's and CONS:
Pros: Its a legit survey. Pays out quickly when you cash out. Good and short surveys to answer. Pays 50CAD or 50 rewards gift card per cash out.

Now coming to the CONS:

I joined for almost three years only cashed out once. Seldom gives you surveys. (Mostly 1-2 surveys per week.) When you open the surveys its closed or not available anymore. The CAP up mark is 5000pts. "No wonder why it will take you more than a year to cash out.
The worst part is. I think this survey is biased. Doesn't want your opinion. If you answer it with what you think its right. "They will flag you and tell you that the answer is inconsistent to what they require or gibberish.

Important point to be aware for survey takers. Watch out when you are taking care of your points when you're almost there to cash out. They will "unsubscribe your account." Without notifying you. And when you asked them for an explanation. Will let you wait for a day or two to get an answer. And As I've said "reason is your answer doesn't meet with what they are expecting."
Honestly I really don't care about the cash out rewards reason for joining the survey is that It talks about what is happening about the Canadian society. And survey is short and accurate with reality.

Note: Maybe the survey site does not want you to answer on different computers. Like I'm answering it from my home, cellphone and work. Maybe the reason why I have been disconnected is due to having different IP address. (home, cellphone and work IP address.)

I was with this site for almost 4 years. The emails are few and takes on average 1 year for 1x payout of $50. The first 3 years were fine, this year I had barely earned 2,000 of the needed 5,000 points to cash out and my account was deleted.

Just answered completely a very long survey worth 300 points and guess what? No points. The answer I got :

Sometime we may not reach a particular quota or completes required, and additional invitations are sent out closer to the deadline. It can happen that by the time you start/finish a survey, we've have reached its quota.

So... please don't waste your time like I did.

I have been chasing the agency for some time to find out where my $50 Amazon gift card reward is--should have received it five months ago. The consistent repeated message to all my inquiries is that they have an "unusually high number of requests and are working diligently to respond to all..." I think they are a working diligently to avoid paying. Don't sign up, your opinion might be valued, but you won't be. They are making money off your time, but not following through on the rewards for it. Angus Reid honored their survey takers. Maru Voice doesn't. Hucksters!

Maru took over for Angus Reid and it has gotten very bad - I have not been able to complete the last 15 surveys they have sent me. They said they were making it better and were going to offer more points. For me it has only gotten worse and the points are still the same. I am very disappointed with them
