Professional Time wasters

October 16, 2017 by kris from United States

This panel is not worth the time. The opportunities are think, weakly rewarding and support is ineffectual or indifferent resolving issues in a timely fashion. They made a redressing early this year and it's just as bad.

Locked Out

January 26, 2017 by Carol from United States

Ever since they performed an update to their site this month, I have been locked out. When I try and sign in I get an error message that my "email or password i wrong" I have reset my password many times, cleared my cache, used a different browser. The emails to them are useless and "canned" They say my account is in good standing and offer no help nor do they know why I am locked out! I have $30 in there and they wont cash me out so I can close it. Frustrated because I do well here! You would think these companies would have decent IT people to give me a temporary password to get me in. Unfair and unethical.

Removed with no notice and no reimbursement.... What a total waste of time.

bad survey company

March 22, 2016 by carol from United States

i have been a member of springboard america for many years. i haven't received any new survey from them and tried to access my account. i was unable and contacted them about 5 times before they replied saying they had cancelled my contract with them due to fraudulent surveys and they kept my money. i have never done any fraudulent surveys and tried to answer their questions to the best of my abilities. they never contacted me saying there was a problem. i feel they should send me the money due to me regardless since it took me almost a year to accumulated the survey dollars i had since i don't qualify for many of their surveys due to my age of 64. i would recommend staying far far away from a company that acts in this manner.

bad
