MySurvey123 rating:
Opinion Place® is an online survey site. It is free and available to anyone wanting to provide their opinions and in return receive rewards. Opinion Place is owned by DMS Research, an AOL LLC Company. Opinion Place surveys are conducted for major companies that are interested in your opinions. Survey topics focus on a variety of subjects such as sports, entertainment, shopping, new products or financial services, just to name a few. By taking part in Opinion Place surveys, you not only earn rewards, but you can also make sure your opinions count! Compensation /Rewards When you complete an Opinion Place® Survey you automatically qualify for a reward instantly. You have the option of choosing Amazon.com® gift cards, PayPal® credits, AAdvantage® miles, an entry into our monthly $1000 sweepstakes, or AOL credits if you pay for AOL® services (put your reward on the credit card you provided AOL). Many surveys take only 10-15 minutes, but the longer the survey the greater the reward. Age requirement: Can't find specific information on their website, I assume it could be 16 year and older.

Others Notes 1. Each Household/family may ONLY have ONE member who may try to qualify for or participate in Opinion Place surveys. 2. How often can take Opinion Place surveys - If you qualify for a survey, you may only take one survey every 7 days. However, if you do not qualify for a survey, you may try again in 3 days. My Experience I joined Opinion Place survey panel after they started accepting non-AOL members (I couldn't remember when, it might be the sometime during 2007 or early 2008) At the beginning, I didn't qualify for any surveys (probably 1 -2 survey I tried), then I stopped receiving surveys. Not long ago I got a tip from MySurvey123 members that I need to login to my account to check available surveys - so I did and immediately qualified and completed a survey ($1.5). I received the Paypal payment 2 weeks after completing the survey! Soon after that I start receiving "Special Invitation" surveys which include a couple of $10 online interactive survey/focus groups! Opinion Place is definitely a good paid survey site, and I recommend it! |

I'm new to this whole paid survey game... and so far, it has been going okay...
Except until recently... when I stumbled on this little problem with Opinion Place.
I'm not sure if this is a common occurrence since I tried looking everywhere online to see if anyone else has this problem...
Here's the thing... I went online and did the survey online... I passed the screener and they told me that I 'qualify' to do this survey for $4 for 20 minutes.
I went through the whole process... answered all the questions... I even got to the page where they were asking if I enjoyed taking the survey and if the pictures provided in this survey were in good quality or not...
Then low and behold... once I think I almost done... I get to the page where they say 'Sorry, you do NOT qualify' for this survey?'
Huh? To say the least, I was surprised and confused... :dry:
From what I have read on the official site and everyone's review, that once you qualify to take a survey, it's pretty much smooth sailing...
I mean... If you don't qualify to take a survey in the first place, they pretty much kick you right out at the beginning after you take the screener and tell you that... and NOT 20 minutes later after taking the actual survey...
I did end up sending an email to their help desk, and they were nice enough to take care of this problem...
But for those of you who are experts in this... Is this a common occurrence with Opinion Place?
They tell you qualify for a survey after passing the screener, you spend a good 20 minutes doing the actual survey with all the detailed Q & A only to tell you at the very end that you did NOT qualify in the end? :side:
Please help a newbie in figuring this out.
Thanks in advance.
