I've started a thread on developing a "survey panelist bill of rights". I hope you join in.

My experience is that out of 10 surveys I will get automatically disqualified at the beginning on five of them and of the remaining five I will make it though four of them and out of those four two will give me the "unfortunately you do not qualify" at the end of the survey. So that means I hit pay dirt on two out of about ten, not very good odds so I just mostly X out of them at the beginning unless it's a Sunday and surveys are far and few between.

Agree about One Opinion. More and more they offer the "varies" surveys. I'm not doing any that do not tell me "how much" and "how long."

Folks, I would like to start a discussion for a Panelist Bill of Rights. This is because The conduct of the Survey and Marketing industry has is in serious deterioration and a decline that seriously impacts panelists. A bill of rights is not about getting a favored position, that's what negotiations are for. This is about how we are treated uniformly. Also Professional Survey Company and Marketing organizations are woefully inadequate for the Panelist. There are panels that cheat panelists with impunity. Here're some topics that I think would be relevant, this is not in any particular order, there are probably multiple categories besides rights here. I imagine Y'all have many more 1) Tell us when it's a survey or a router. 2) complete screening up front or pay a proportional fee the longer it takes to screen out, including full price if screened out at exit. 3) Surveys must have abort provisions, and when we quit, a selection list why it was aborted. 4) Show us our complete survey history, completed, screened out, aborted and missed. 5) Tell us up front the organization that the survey is for. Some survey companies are terrible, and we want to not undertake for any price. 6) Minimal trackers, tell us which ones are being used and pay us a share for the ones producing revenue. 7) Agglomerate our own multi-point reporting system based on the value, support, integrity, payout and so forth and publish it. 8] develop a Survey Persona and reputation system so panels are less dependent on CAPTCHA and other bot barriers 9) Access to all our "rewards" that have been earned. 10) when an account is restricted because of TOS/TOC violations, state the infraction, the relevant section(s) and remediation process, Don't just send the whole TOC document, that's FU support. 11) Is the survey it a single topic or an Omnibus survey

Lucky you. I’m lucky if I finish 1 out of every 50 or so. I’m continuing to dump survey sites that waste my time. It’s one thing if I disqualify at the beginning, quite another if I spend 20 minutes successfully completing a survey to get screwed out of points at the end. This happens more frequently with Point Club, and they will be the next ones I will dump.

Takes too long to get to 25.00 and the closer you get to 25.00 the slower the surveys come. I went though two cash outs and have now abandoned them. There are too many others that have lower thresholds for cash outs and surveys that are easier to qualify for. They also locked me out at one point too. Had to e-mail several times to get reinstated.

Leap!

As soon as I see a JD Power survey, I treat it like a virus and X out of the screen.

i just got an email response from them today it reads: Please be advised that our teams when doing routine health check of member accounts spotted some minor difference in points total. Hence, a re-checks were done and correct balances were uploaded accordingly. When talking about your account specific, following difference was observed after account activity done since Day1 was scrubbed: Points earned till date i.e. since July 14,2017 (excluding cash outs, pending & invalid status) - 6,69,367 Points redeemed till date - 6,75,000 Hence, 6,69,367 - 6,75,000 = -5,633 'Approved' points and is the present/correct balance of your account, along with 2,200 'Pending' points. We've attached the report pulled from servers and has every detail of every point you've accrued since day 1 in PointClub. In case of further doubt(s)/concern(s), just do not let them bother you. Instead, send them to us asap and we will take care of all. Best Regards, Customer Service Manager Team PointClub First thing, apparently these fools don't know how to use the comma in listing numbers. Second, it seems that they are saying that they paid out too much, and want it back, just like an indian giver. F*** these double faced thieves, they are Satan.
