AWFUL!

May 8, 2021 by Holly from United States

I accrued money pretty quickly which was cool so I thought I would save up some and when I reached $50 I wanted to cash that in for some amazon money and I kept getting an error message. I contacted customer support and i got the same generic message it seems everyone has gotten about my accuracy and my account was flagged and suspended.

I asked for a supervisor to get back to me and they said my account will be sent to the accounts team for re-review. I had never even cashed out any money I was letting it accrue and I think they got scared and didn't want to pay it out. I am always careful when I am doing surveys so I do not understand why my account was flagged and suspended. I told them in an email that this is the first I am hearing of any issues and I wasn't even given a warning and now I haven't heard anything!

There was nothing wrong with my account or data they just don't want to pay out after all my time I spent taking over $50 in surveys.

Loved it, Suspended, then Reinstated

February 24, 2021 by Maria from United States

In the beginning, the company will send you warm and friendly emails talking about how to maximize the number of surveys you can receive and how thankful they are for you being a member. Then, once you start seeing several available surveys in your feed, using the app is fun. After you earn enough to cash out and try to do so, however, prepare for crickets.

I earned $14.30 and tried to cash out maybe 3 times. Then, I contacted customer support. I didn't hear anything for 5 days. So, I contacted them again. Only then did I get a generic, copy and paste email back saying that my account had been suspended (nobody ever told me in any way shape or form that was what was wrong and why I couldn't cash out). I was being accused of not providing quality or honest answers, having lied about my demographic information, or not paying attention while completing surveys. All of these are complete BS, because I do surveys to make a living. I lost almost all of my income due to COVID-19, so I take these survey apps and websites very seriously because they are literally my lifeline right now. I have requested an account reinstatement, but am not holding my breath. Sure, it's only $14.30, but that's a handful of cheap meals for my family right now that we so desperately need.

UPDATE: My appeal was read by a customer service person who reviewed my survey responses personally and saw that the flagging of my account was in error. My answers are good, consistent, and I see my surveys through to the end. My account was reinstated and I was apologized to for the problem and inconvenience. I was able to cash out and have taken several more surveys since then. This type of response is virtually unheard of in the survey-taking world, but securely puts QuickThoughts back in my good book.

Won't get to minimum to cashout

January 12, 2021 by Misty from United States

U need $10 to cash out, I got to $9.49 pretty quick, then no surveys came at ALL for days. Not even ones to try to qualify for. So I deleted, wrote my review on Google, as well as sent them an email. They replied saying I was "flagged" and "suspended indefinitely". This was after I deleted app, wrote my review!! Guess because I had nothing nice to say they indefinitely suspended me, lol Anyways. Save ur time and phone storage!!

Disappointed

November 24, 2020 by Kara from United States

just joined and redeemed for 10 dollars amazon got a verification code but no gift card. balance is still the same. keep trying to cash out and it keeps saying congratulations but no gift card still and now suddenly all the surveys have disappeared.

Suspend account when cashing out

November 6, 2020 by Mike from United States

Do not use QuickThoughts. I filled out surveys and earned up to $102 in my balance. When I tried to cash out for Amazon gift cards, my account was frozen. When I emailed the help desk, they said I was found to be inaccurate and unattentive. I asked what I had done, because it wasn't intent to be dishonest and was attentive in my responses. They responded that they couldn't get me specific because it would compromise their internal security. So I not only can't do any surveys but lose out on all my balance.
