  1. Usually the first thing I do when I come to Survey Police is read the reviews. I find many of them entertaining, and it gives me ideas as to which survey companies I may be interested in signing up for; and which survey companies to avoid like the plague. I’m already signed up for the top five survey survey sites for 2020. Plus I have a couple of additional companies I am doing okay with. When I read reviews from others on many sites, there seems to be a recurring theme. Many of them have been with the survey site for at least a year, some for many more years than that. I am seeing people that have been loyal to a particular survey site 15-20 years, getting royally screwed. Unlike most businesses, survey companies do not appreciate your loyalty. It means jack squat to them. I find this appalling and very disappointing. People that have been with a site a long time are getting arbitrarily removed for no apparent reason, and being accused of cheating, rushing, or even being a bot. These survey companies are absolutely disgusting parasites. There needs to be a lot more regulation by the government of these survey sites. I know, nobody likes big government, me included. But what these survey sites are pulling is criminal. And it seems like the majority of them are doing these sketchy shoddy practices. Complaining does nothing. They go right back to being terrible. Make no mistake - these sites are raking in huge amounts of money off the backs of all of us taking surveys. There should be some type of minimum wage for survey takers. Oh, but we’re not employees, just “independent contractors”, so we have absolutely no rights or recourse. I spend on average of 4-6 hours a day, seven days a week doing surveys. It is actually something I consider a hobby, that I enjoy despite my constant complaining. I get pretty passionate about all my hobbies, and start noticing patterns and such. Yep, life ain’t fair, but I think we survey takers deserve a lot more respect and compensation than we are getting. Just me venting, which I believe I can do on this thread. Thanks for listening to me rant.

  2. Good information in this post. My goal too is 10 dollars a day. Some days it takes longer to get there than others but at the end of the day it is 10 dollars I would not have had otherwise. It does ad up to 300 a month and makes my car payment. Branded is another panel that is good about awarding missing points. You are right, the disqualifications are a fact of life, just shrug it off and move on to the next survey. It took me a while to learn that. Also learn to identify the panels that disqualify you the most often and avoid them or at least don't go to them as often as you do others. That is why it is good to have multiple panels, so you always have somewhere to go next.

  3. I still have surveys to take buy my history disappeared and I can't bring it up in their "pointblank" section. What I have earned and what has been approved is still showing but the history is gone. I emailed them tonight. Let's see what happens. I have trouble with them before. Might be time to bail out. Hopefully I can get what I have already earned.

  5. Also if you do not receive the points for the daily surveys, it is either because you are not signed in OR likely they are added a bit later. Sometimes they are slow to add on if there is a lot of members online. Please check back a couple hours later and if they are not added on and you cannot re-take the surveys, please contact us and tell us which specific surveys were not added.

  6. Hi Tellwut members, Lucid is the owner of the commonly used pre-screening software Samplicio.us. They recently made the consent page mandatory for all countries which is why you are now seeing it. It is the Lucid consent page for cookies and privacy policy. Most survey companies use Samplicio.us as their pre screening software so if you don't accept the privacy policy, I'm not sure you will be able to complete these surveys. Lucid is not a survey company, they just own the software. As for selling your information, Tellwut has never and does not sell any personal information. We only provide surveys on behalf of other survey companies. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] at any time if you have any questions!
