  1. Got paid today which is great however the payout was higher then I thought they said it would be.I was paid a gift certificate to Amazon for $150 - wasnt the pay suppose to be $50? I would hate for them to come back to me and say I owe them $100 - especially if I go out and spend it.

  2. I don't think a strike would be effective. Because the turnover these survey companies have is just too much and they often claim millions of members. So a 100 or thousand strikers would not be noticed. There's no easy way for a person to affect these survey companies and they know it. To be noticed, you have to be entrepreneurial, think bigger and use leverage. I've use the professional organizations like MRS, ESOMAR and others to send complaints, so that's a letter writing campaign. If you get the attention of management this way, it's usually upper level. You may also have to make contacts at the state level regulatory, like for the survey lotteries and drawings, those are regulated by gaming laws. However, I doubt that many of the people doing surveys think it's worth the effort, you would like to be an activist to pursue this course. Perhaps the best way to gain a following would be to find a journalist that covers surveying, at least a couple of articles written and attached to a news organization and persuade the person that there's a story here. Another thing that can be done is write survey reviews at SiteJabber.com, at least there they don't throttle you for being accused of "griping".

  3. I get to Sample Cube only through Survey Junkie. Lately, none of the many Sample Cube surveys work at all. Survey Junkie transfers me to Sample Cube's site, but all that shows is a blank screen with their masthead. The URL shows https://surveys.sample-cube.com/survey/demographics, but there is no content and no way forward. This has happened dozens of times in the past few days.

  4. I hear you too! Man, if I got paid 50 cents for every survey I attempted, I’d be making $15-$20 a day easily! I get DQ’d from so many surveys. It would be a total dream to get paid 25 cents a minute. That way if I took a 30 minute survey, I’d get $7.50. Yeah, that would be awesome, but just a dream there. I’m lucky if I can get 5 cents a minute half the time. I agree with you on misleading estimated times of completion. I was working one today that was supposed to be 13 minutes. Well, 20 minutes in, I was still working on it, very monotonous, and then I got all the way to the end, and it said it had enough responses from my demographics and I got nothing! I was livid.
