This site was ok at 1st, but I was often bounced-out of surveys halfway or all the way thru or encountered broken survey links. I could spend upwards of 30-45 mins on 1 survey, only to get "This is not the right survey for you" or "Answers Not Saved", meaning denial of reward pts. For every 10 surveys completed, I averaged 2-3 done for free due to survey malfunctions. Occasionally I’d reach someone at ProOpinion for resolution, but seldom got thru. It took 3-6 emails for a response to just 1 survey problem. Phone calls were rarely answered by live personnel, so I left voice mails, which usually went unreturned.

Early June 2017, I attempted a redemption. Instead of direction to PayPal, I got a termination notice due to violation of membership terms/conditions. Clueless as to my error, I emailed them, asking and questioning whereabouts of redemption. I wait days, no response, sent follow-up emails, still nothing. Finally, days later, a response acknowledging receipt of my emails and promising an account review. Days go by, no response. I sent another email, but no response again for days. Then, an email asking for details of the events prior to termination. I sent requested info immediately, but no response for another week.
Days go by, then another email from ProOpinion repeating request for account termination details. I complied - again. Monday, an email saying they've reviewed my account and won’t reinstate because their "investigation" confirmed the violations, & that any points accrued are theirs. Still no mention of WHAT the violation was. My husband and I were both members, so perhaps he'd taken his own surveys on my home computer (no rule against this), and they thought it was me. It’s no great loss, but they’ve already kept plenty I’d earned in the past.

After reading other reviews, it’s clear this poorly-run company’s m.o. is deny points when they can & shut down member accounts without cause. There are other survey sites, so I'll go elsewhere, but beware; their business model is extremely poor customer-service, denial of points (and therefore $$) when possible, & sudden termination without explanation. For those baffled by complaints, just sit tight; your day will come. Their unethical business practices won’t stop ‘til enough members decide this treatment is unacceptable or someone designs a survey site that treats its members with respect & integrity.

It was very good while it lasted. Pro Opinion pays well and the surveys were generally well-constructed. Like other reviewers, I was able to make a good bit of money in the first three weeks. Then, I was given a long survey--maybe 35 minutes to complete. And I sat with it, all the way through to the classification questions at the very end. In other surveys, these questions about your income or size of your family are front loaded, so it you are going to be disqualified from a survey, you are disqualified before you begin responding to questions. Not so with this survey. It bumped me out after I had answered every classification question that it could and I had wasted over 40 minutes of my time. Needless to say, I was not happy. That is not ethical: you now have a terrific amount of data from me, I have used my time in good faith, and I am not fairly compensated for my time and attention. I wrote to Pro Opinion to tell them this--and heard nothing. Later that afternoon, the same thing happens again. I write again, because I need to know that this is not standard practice. And what happens? They terminated me on the site and kept all of the earnings that I had acquired (which represented a significant amount of time). Because I brought something to their attention that I would *think* that a responsible survey organization would acknowledge is not a typical or acceptable practice. Wow. If you want professionals and well-educated people to take your surveys (and you claim that you do), you would think that you would want to build a relationship of trust rather than resort to this infantile 'termination' and erasure of compensation that I earned. Learn from this, my friends. I should have known that this was too good to be true for too long.

Similar to the last few reviewers, I tried to login the other day only to be told:

"Your membership has been terminated as a result of the violation of the ProOpinion Terms & Conditions. For questions, please contact [email protected]"

I haven't violated anything and had been using Proopionion for almost 3 years. Clearly they are just terminating users that either have a lot of points or some other random reasons. Just lost a bunch of points and can't get them to respond to any emails or calls. Stay away!

Just signed up with them and as soon as I went to sign in as a new member, I got a notice saying my acct has been terminated due to violation of terms of service. WTF?

Stay away from this site, they will find a way to keep your money. They have screwed me, do not let them do it to you.
