Terrible customer service and no pay

March 3, 2023 by James from Canada

I completed a 1 hr survey and a pre-work study was told my compensation was to be $260 CAD I completed the study and waited, no pay, contacted the person who emailed me and was told that the payment is issued after the study completes and to wait a week, waited a week no payment, contacted again and was told it had already been sent, checked my account no payment, contacted again and was told I was being handed off to customer support, haven't heard from them in several days. This site seems to have problems paying out after you do their studies do not recommend...

Dishonest

May 5, 2022 by Stephen from United States

I took a 1 hour survey. Now a month later I still haven't been paid. They won't respond to email, calls, or voicemail. Dishonest

Addendum

After many emails and I'm unanswered voicemails they sent me $60. They owed me 175. After more emails they paid the remainder. The participant shouldn't have to ask repeatedly for payment.

Excuses

October 11, 2019 by Samantha from United States

I have been a member of opinion site for years but one thing that seems to never change is the fact that I ALWAYS have to reach out to them to ask where my payment is. I requested to transfer my credits to PayPal on 9/17 and still have not received it. The first email I sent was to Pat Stuart and was told they were “behind” sending out payments (big surprise 🙄) So after I didn’t hear back from her for over a week I escalated it to Mr. Freeman (COO) and was told he would get me an ETA. After several days without response I emailed him again and was told “accounting staff have been out”. I wouldn’t advise using this company unless you don’t mind waiting and constantly having to ask where your payment is. Also if you take a pre qualifying survey for a phone interview and qualify based on that please know that even though you choose a time for contact you never hear from anyone.

Hi Samantha,

I understand your frustration on this item. I did reply to you directly and also confirmed with you the ETA in my email. The transfer to PayPal is in process like I had stated. We have always honored payments but timelines do vary tremendously based on when projects end, when you request transfers, type of payment requested... etc. If you would like to be removed from our paid survey offerings due to the dislike of the payment timelines, please let me know and we will remove you from the community.

Did not get paid paid and poor customer service

November 16, 2018 by Richard from United States

I completed a 50 minute survey on 09/29/18 and then registered on opinionsite.com. Now they are claiming they have no record of me taking the survey. I’m dealing with a person, Pat S., who seems polite but keeps asking me the same questions such as sending her the email invitation which I did multiple times. I will not use this site again. Also the original email invitation has a contact that no longer exists even from a month ago. What’s even more strange is that this site seemed to be legit as they even wanted proof of my medical license.

**** Update 11/16/2018 ****

Hi Richard,

Thanks for contacting us. We were able to resolve. After reviewing the invite we found the email invite to complete the survey came from another company recruiting on our behalf and this is the reason we were unable to initially locate you in our system. We did find the honorarium was processed and set to you on this project but it was sent to a different email than what was used on the original email invitation which was the cause for an additional delay and multiple emails in getting things resolved. Thanks again for reaching out and sticking with us to resolve as we hit you with several clarification questions.

Failure to be paid

August 15, 2018 by Cort from United States

I redeemed a payment approximately 3.5 months for gift cards (which their website states are delivered within 2 weeks). After not receiving payment, I sent numerous e-mails with no response. I was scheduled to participate in a phone interview around this same time, but due to the failure to communicate and lack of payment, I opted to not participate in this study. I received an email the next day stating that I would no longer be invited to participate in their surveys and they removed my account completely. 3.5 months later I have still not been paid $200.00 in gift cards, and was removed from their site inappropriately after I had good reason for concern.

****** UPDATE 8/20/2018 ******
Hi Cort, thanks for contacting us. As per our email conversation we were able to locate the mentioned lost gift cards and resolve the issue. Our gift processing center did process back in May/Early June but these were sent to your other email address we had on file and it is likely they were missed or caught in your spam folder.
