Thanks for your feedback Leslie. Glad to know you are having some success with paid surveys. Pinecone is a good panel, and you can check out all the other survey panels on this list - they are all legitimate market research companies and they do pay. Also want to let you know that please be careful if you decide to take Panda's "surveys" and never give out your credit cards information. That's all! :-)

#263 RE: United States Free Paid Surveys List — Leslie 2012-01-25 20:24
I am 55 yrs old and have been doing surveys for about 2 yrs now. I have been earning money on Panda research simply by opening the emails they send. I received $50 to my PayPal account in Jan. 2012. I also Do surveys with Pinecone Because they are the only one that I've found that actually pays you when you do a real survey! They email you a survey, you answer the questions and you receive $3.00 to your prepaid Mastercard that they send to you when you join. I get about 4 surveys a month. I have also received products that are not yet on the market to try and then fill out a survey about them which they also pay me for.

Sorry to hear about the trouble Clairebear. Believe it or not once my account was once blocked, and I contacted their customer service (first by email then by phone) and it turned out that some SOB was spamming my referral link and they accused me of referral fraud!!! I was mad!! :-x. Anyway they later admitted it was not me and they re-activated my account. My point is you never know what was going on!! I suggest you contact them again and if possible call them. I know they have a phone number for US members, but not sure about UK. Good luck!

#260 MySurvey blocking accounts — Clairebear 2011-12-05 16:50
I was with MySurvey for a few years and received some good payments but then they blocked my account and didn't tell me (Only after a few weeks when I didn't receive any invitations to surveys)

They won't say when or why, just that their system detected an irregularity (there are none because I check my details regularly) and not only were they blocking my account with no explanation but they are stealing back £20 of incentives I earned...

#258 Legitimate paying survey companies — mlynn 2011-11-29 16:22
Hi Duncan, NONE of the companies on my list requires you to purchase or sign up something/programs. All companies on my lists are legitimate market research paid survey companies/panels that will pay YOU for your time and opinion. Those require you to sign up programs are NOT real paid survey sites, they are either scams or paid offer sites, but they are NOT paid survey sites. Hope it helps.

#257 Surveys That require you to purchase something? — Duncan Judson 2011-11-29 05:04
Hi,

I have taken some surveys and at the end the company has required me to purchase something, or signup for a paid program.

Do these companies on your list do that particular practice at the end of their surveys?

Has anyone ever had their account "frozen" due to "data concerns" by Opinion Outpost? I have been a member of that site for years and suddenly I can't log in anymore and get this message when I try. I don't get it.


My account was frozen after a couple of years so I'm guessing that if you make too much that they find a reason to close/freeze your account. Try emailing them to unfreeze your account.

I just found out that my account is frozen too and I have been a member for years. I received an automated email after I sent one. It said:
"If you are not able to log in, this may be because some accounts were not moved over in the initial batch. In many cases, this was due to data concerns. We need to review these accounts before reactivating them. The points and surveys are still there, it just may take some time to migrate all of them over to the new site. If you have emailed about this already, we have your request stored and we will send you an email as soon as you are able to log in."
I am very confused and don't understand exactly what this means. You will notice it really doesn't tell you what is going on with your account being frozen.


It appears since their moving accounts to a new site they are auto-replying to every support request with that response.
Are you sure your account is actually frozen?
I know I was not able to login for around 2 weeks before they sent me an email with details to login to the new site.

Hi everyone, the best survey company to get into is Pinecone. I was a panelist and I received checks in the mail for about 3-5 dollars per survey. I also received full size sample products to try. It's not easy to get in. You have to keep an eye out for their banners. I had to stop doing surveys for them due to family crisis and waited to long to ask to be allowed back in. They told me I could reapply and when I did I was denied due to not being the in the profile group they were looking for. I still say they are the best and legitmite site out there.

[quote name="Amber"]Hi Mlynn. I just found your site and think its great. I have a couple questions that I hope you don't mind me asking! On average how many hours per week do you spend on surveys and what is the average weekly pay?


hi

an excellent site to join is http://www2.quickrewards.net/?r=!F94VXV35D4V8B

copy paste this link on to your address bar and register.

there is around 10c per day for 5 mins work + at least $3 per day if you do the surveys every day... there are about 10 surveys every day but you may get through 4-6 per day.

If you buy online using quickrewards link, you get cashback or points that can be converted later into cash. I use Paypal for my daily cashouts.

Hope this works well for you!

Some of the questionaires are pretty long. This is a JOKE!!

I am disappointed at MySurvey too...I also have heard people having technical problems when taking surveys with them...That's why I haven't taken their surveys for a while..now this cash out problem is even more bothersome, cause I never had cash out problem with them before. :-x By the way I am able to login now (their support got back to me pretty fast)...guess what I was going to take this survey - was told the survey takes 30 minutes, but they didn't say how much points I get paid, so forget it!!! :-?

#227 Mysurvey.com Cashout — Porter 2011-05-23 22:35
Hey mlynn
I had an issue logging in like a month ago, it said my account was inactive, after contacting support it was re-activated with no explanation why it was made inactive.
about a week later i reached the $10 cash out through paypal requirement and when i tried to cash out it gave me a message stating that " sorry your cart total exceeds your account balance" when I was 300 over the required point level.
Contacted support and got that resolved but that is the cash out that has been "canceled due to fraudulent activity"
on top of that i am again having the cart total exceeds point balance error again.
I did a quick search and found some of the survey panel rating sites, i noticed quite a few negative reviews recently compared to mostly positive before, including one persons account that was closed for not living in the US when they do.
It almost sounds like Mysurvey is starting to do anything possible to avoid paying out.

Hi jheni - sorry to hear you're having problems with SurveyHead. How long have been since you took the survey? - Sometimes it takes a while to see credit, I still have a survey not credited yet that I took this January :-| . But that's the only one and all others were credited. Can you give them a little bit more time, and contact their support later?? Good luck!

Hi Michael - yes many sites I have not personally reviewed yet cause I usually write reviews after I get paid. Believe it or not sometimes due to "bad luck" it takes long time to get to qualify a survey for some reason (such as demographics.).

However, there are some sites I did wrote reviews but didn't put the links yet (I will do it as soon as I can)..at the mean time, could you check the "Paid Survey Reviews" section to see if you can find the survey sites that have been reviewed. If you can't find the ones you would like to review, please let me know which sites and I will set up the review pages so at least you and others can write your reviews.

Thanks for pointing this out and you are very appreciated for providing suggestions and feedback!! :cheer:

I to am an American citizen but my work keeps me overseas most of the time. Fortunately I have a physical address in the USA (House in Texas)which makes me eligible. If you have a physical address in the USA The following steps will help.

1)Use Super IP Hide to set your IP to USA this will allow you to use sites that verify your location via your IP.

2) If Your rewards are sent through the mail (checks/prizes) then use a mail forwarding service.

Hello mysurvey123:

Especially, when you take a survey for about 10-15 minutes and they come back with you don't qualify. Seems to me they are getting the survey information up front, without rewarding you. Will chat later on specifics, but I know Esearch is a better survey group.
They deliver.

Hi Lilly - hmm, it's the first time I have heard that they can collect info in your shopping cart? Are you sure about that? I will double check their policy again. I think it's very unlikely since the only way they can do that is to install some kind of tracking software which is not required to join their panel. To answer your other questions, NO - no legitimate survey companies will collect your bank/credit card or SSN (unless you make more than $600/year with a certain survey company, since they need to report your income to IRS). Anyway, I have signed up with almost all the survey companies on my list and never had any problems with them.

The cookies are standard process by almost all websites - whenever you visit a website, it will record some very basic information about you such as your Inernet browser you use and what version, sometimes your username etc - those information are harmless.

Hi Lilly, yes you need to provide physical address - cause sometimes the survey sites/market research companies need to send you products to test. Another reason (I think) is for fraud control. Don't worry the sites on the lists are all legitimate companies.

I had just received some of my rewards a couple weeks ago. I have always been active, taking 3-4 surveys a week. I tried to resign up and the page lets me go about 2 pages in and kicks me out, saying that there is technical error. I have emailed Lightspeed over and over and no reply.

****1. Creation Rewards.com-very fast way to earn points that convert into cash, check and gift cards.But you have to do the daily surveys to earn the extra points.

*****2. Surveyspot.com- again, keep checking for surveys everyday even if you do not get e-mailed one. They pay by paypal only.

****3. Lightspeed panel-variety of gift cards and also paypal options and sometimes they offer focus groups for cash

***4.Ipsos (i-say.com)- takes a while to build your points up but they are good mostly american express gift cards

****5. SurveyHead-NOTE: this site takes a while for you to get your money built up and get your reward.

*****6.Focus pointe global- focus groups, online surveys,telepho ne surveys they e-mail every couple weeks or evey week depending on your qualifications for studies, pay by check i have done one online study with them, it was fun ;-)

***** 7.Synovate Global Opinion Panels-surveys online mainly sometime you will get selected to participate in product testing, pay by check

***** 8. Socratic Forum- online surveys pay by check

****9. Myview- variety of E-gift cards and regular gift cards
