A legitimate and trustworthy business

February 7, 2013 by Asmaa from Canada

Since signing up with numerous survey companies in January of 2011, I have unsubscribed from almost all of them, because I learned quickly which points add up and which don't. Currently, I'd only participate in the companies that offer me a fast 1000 points redemption ($10) such as Web Perspectives and MySurvey. So far, I've redeemed my $10 about 6 or 7 times with WP and once or twice with MySurvey. I actually have over a 1000 points right now with WP waiting to be claimed. GlobalTestMarket is also good as it has very many opportunities even though the payout is a bit slight.

Favorite So Far

December 8, 2012 by Michelle from Canada

I signed up for about 30 different panels throughout September, cancelled about 10 since then because of sketchy practices or exceptionally bad reviews, and so far Web Perspectives is the only one I've actually received money from.

I qualify for most of the surveys that are sent to me, incentives are fair, I accumulate points fast and the cash out threshold is low. Also, although the site warns that it could take up to 5 weeks for points to be moved from pending to credited, I have rarely had to wait longer than 2 weeks. There are many other good companies out there but this one is my favorite simply because of how fast I cash out.

Based on the mixed reviews I've read regarding survey companies, it's obvious to me that different companies work better for different people, so rather than recommend any particular company, I would advise that you try one and move on if it doesn't work for you.

In my opinion, this one is definitely worth a try!

My Favourite Survey Company

July 13, 2012 by Candy from Canada

I get survey's from this company almost daily and have qualified for every single one. I have regularly for the past 1 1/2 yrs. been receiving a minimum $10./month...I can always count on having $ when I need it from this company.

Best Survey Company I Belong To

May 14, 2012 by Joanne from Canada

I'm a member of 10 survey companies, and Web Perspectives is by far the best. I have made over $50, and they pay $10 per payment into my PayPal account. I just finished a survey that paid $7, which was the highest I've ever seen so far.

Honest Company

February 26, 2012 by Eleanor from Canada

I would recommend this site because the rewards are fair compensation. I get about 15 surveys a month and honest answers to the survey questions pay off. I have been recieving the Air Miles option for about 2 years. Personally I have had a good response from the customer service and I am happy to be part of a Canadian company. by Eleanor
