  1. I barely ever qualify for ANY surveys. Does anyone else have this problem?

  2. Just wondering what others think about the survey section and opting in to lucid.Personally I am afraid to do so.Seems they track everything and sell your info.Has anyone done this? For the low points doesnt seem like a good idea.

  3. My accounts at several CINT survey panels (Falkor Studios, Opini, PanelChamp, SurveyYeah and Saybucks) have all been suspended, so I was wondering whether anyone else has been affected in this way? Looks like an end-of-year clear-out of panellists to me. I received a response from CINT when I queried this, as follows:- "We regret to inform you that our systems have identified activity that is in violation of Cint's Participant Terms & Conditions for Panel Membership. As a result, we have removed your panelist account from our system and you will no longer be able to login, take part in surveys or other research programs or redeem or receive any rewards. This decision will not be reviewed or reversed. You can review Cint's terms & conditions here: https://www.cint.com/panelist-terms/ " I'm pretty sure I haven't breached the T&Cs, so this looks like another con trick to retain panellists' earnings. CINT have now been added to SSI as survey panels to avoid in future.

  4. its cint itself that the companies survey companies use ive been on many survey panels that use cint as their survey router and i recently got banned from quite a few survey sites apparently i broke their terms and conditions which is complete nonsense i had built up money with all of them i emaied one of the survey sites asking why i had been banned and they said it was down to cint not them but cint are useless at replying to emails and just send the same automated response i think this company needs banning they are a disgrace and ive seen alot of people on other sites complaing of the same thing getting banned for no reason very annoyed with them

  5. Lucid sucks, so I don't do those. I am also getting dq'd when I hit submit on a completed survey, again. So I don't do that many for them. The Peanut Labs ones are now down to 44 points for most of them. I don't rely on any of them.

  6. Honestly why should any of these companies care how fast we complete a survey as long as we don't just "straightline answers"..I type fast & finish surveys fast...it's just their way of you getting a "dq" & or an "error screen" at the end of a survey since you finish too fast..If we give them honest & legit answers they shouldn't care how fast we do any of their surveys

  7. I don't qualify for that many, but between the ones I do qualify for and the points from the daily user-generated surveys, it adds up fast enough to keep me using the site.

  8. Today, 1/25, it was 90. However, bit by bit it takes me longer and longer to cash out for $10 Amazon. At this rate I'll be lucky to cash out for $80 in a year if it doesn't get better. When I started Tellwut I could make north of $250/year. That's a pretty dramatic dropoff. And back then we didn't have to do external surveys.

  9. And for the 3rd time this month (at least) I have gotten 55 points for the day. They may add more on, but there have been days that 55 points was it. Is this the new threshold amount for answering daily questions? I am going to have to end it with them if so. It takes me longer to log in than to do 55 points worth.

  11. In general the Tellwut user generated surveys award each time it is completed, and when I don't get the points, it is likely because I forgot to click the submit button before moving to the next survey. To accommodate this possibility, I bookmark the user survey page and click that link instead of the next. This way I'm absolutely sure of exhausting the user surveys each day. Note that you must complete at least one external survey every two weeks or the user surveys are turned off. Now, In the past I've had problems with Lucid surveys. They have a penchant to reverse the survey's on "quality" grounds. This is most likely because they are trying to get a very specific result for a survey and exclude panelists that don't help, or they are just plain cheap. I use the archive feature of browsers to save to a folder and each subsequent page. PointClub is particularly prone to do this unethical invalidation, and the way they do it is very, very sneaky. They invalidate your surveys months later and make it very difficult to discover, because you must page back many times. I also block Lucid cookies unless the survey won't progress.

  12. I have been contacted by businesses and sites after taking surveys. I can't say for certain that it was Tellwut, BUT I know I took the daily surveys yesterday and they are not showing up on my account. So starting today I will be taking a screen shot as soon as I am done taking them and check it again the next morning before I begin the questions for the day. This has happened to be 2X in the past week. And I did log in. Do paying attention isn't an option anymore, or I am just wasting time. I did get a couple of surveys done last week with them, but it was a wash with the 2 days that I didn't get credit. Sooo, that being said, I do think that our info is sold by the survey companies and that is how I am ending up with over 100 junk emails every day. Ridiculous. I don't open them, I just delete and go on. And deleting cookies is a good thing. And don't do any banking surveys. There, I am done now.

  13. They all track us and sell our info. Set up your cookie manager so each site's cookies disappear when you leave the site. Don't know why that's all crossed out.

  14. They didn't like me after my issue with them. I'm deactivated from their panel. No word or anything. I just happened to notice I didn't get the usual birthday greeting they send in email every year, and decided to check my account.Tried to log in and got "invalid credentials". I kind of knew it would happen, but still, they were one of my long time survey companies, so it's kind of a let-down to have them just dump me after one problem with missing credits that wasn't even my fault.

  15. I agree 100% about the lack of loyalty. After years of never having an issue, I had a missing credit from Pinecone a few weeks back. Had a hell of a time getting my little $3 credit, but finally got it after back and forth emails. Well, lo and behold, suddenly my log-in info is invalid. One issue in about 10 years of being with them and they kick me to the curb.
