Get it while the gettin's good - with caveats

June 28, 2017 by Sheila from United States

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.

Too similar to Surveyspot

May 15, 2020 by Vincent from United States

I see people saying " I do not understand the reviews...:" I can answer that for these people. You are not as experienced in survey taking as you may think. I have been taking surveys since 2009. Opinionoutpost is beyond better than Pro Opinion. If you caught on, SSI at the time of development (now Dynata) created Pro Opinion to resemble SURVEYSPOT. The same points system as well. How can someone say this is a great survey site when you need 1000 points to cash out. A lot of the surveys are 75 points or less. Opinionoutpost averages .50-1.00 per survey and only needing 100 points. Pro Opinion needs 1000 at LOWER paying surveys. I stopped using it because it is useless to me who is an experienced survey taker for over a decade. Opinionoutpost is still one of , if not THE best one for cash outs. Mypoints and Swagbucks will get you the fastest gift card cash outs.

PROOPINION RIPOFF

May 22, 2016 by Dell from United States

I have been with them for three months, paid $545 had to send in a W-9, then all of a sudden they froze my account, saying I was rushing through surveys, I am a highly valued member and get paid extra, now they froze my account not once but twice, it all happened when I reached $495.55 and then they started their little tap dance of freezing my account, who do these people think they are, I will report them to the BBB ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Locked out

June 27, 2016 by Tracy from United States

This site was awesome at first. I qualified for almost every survey and made an easy $10 - $15 on days I would sit down for an house and do the surveys. So I started doing this almost every day. Suddenly I try to cash out and I keep getting a message that they can't process my claim and to contact the help desk....which I did and have heard nothing. I'm not sure why I am suddenly "locked out" but am very disappointed.

Its sad but true

February 23, 2016 by Gene from United States

I thought also this was the best sight I had ever tried. I qualified for about 15 ten dollar pay pals in the first month. Suddenly they never have surveys or I am not qualified. In the last 20 surveys, I qualified for one and its been now over 2 weeks. The reviewers were right they are like a wilted flower after a few weeks.. Don't bother
