That's my approach as well.

Yep, it seems this has been going on for a few days now. I got the same message as you. I guess I will wait it out and see.

I agree I have been at 20,000 for awhile- I just do them when I have time.I think all survey companies could careless about us.They want to make money off of us by paying as little as possible.I also think they have been ripped off my duplicitous people out there.The scammers have not only cheated them but us in the long run.

Which is strange, I gave my financial institution very high ratings. I think in my case I was the victim of a stupid trap question.

It's become way obvious that JD Power only wants the responses their clients pay for so said clients can brag about being highest rated whatever in their particular industry. This is why I've said several times that although I do surveys for a little extra money, I pay no attention to the results. Manipulated and meaningless.

I quit One Opinion because of their high cash-out point. It also seemed to me that as I got closer to that cash-out point I was getting fewer surveys and it became harder to get qualified. What works best for me is to stay with panels that let you cash out between 5 and 15 dollars. That way you don't have so much money tied up if they decide to jerk you around.

Have not had such issues there. Cashed out about a month ago for $75 ($50 Amazon , $25 Walmart) and already have amassed $15.

The response I got from Pinecone, although not directly addressing the missing points, also referenced the rewards site being "refreshed." So maybe the points will come back after they're done screwing around. At least I'm not the only one with the issue. Misery loves company and all that.

I usually try them if nothing else I get the dq points

I keep getting those as well and still do them. Most of the time now , after a few initial questions , I get a DQ. But , for those that do work , they are more like 15 minutes , no matter what it says.

Those are automatic X outs for me, too. I did one for about 25 minutes and was told at the end I didn't qualify. Never again. The other one I hate from One Opinion is the cmix one for tv/movies/streaming services. I learned my lesson with them too, always DQing me at the end. I hang on to One Opinion because they used to be so good, but I may give up on them. I've been at 8000-ish points for almost a month. I hardly even make the 5 DQs a day.

First survey I took this morning was a JD Power survey concerning banking and finances. It was through Opinion Outpost. The survey lasted about 25 minutes, I finished it, hit the send button and was told that I failed to qualify for the survey. When will I ever learn? This happens about 50% of the time with JD Power surveys. I probably failed one of their numerous trap questions. And that begs the question, what is the real purpose for those trap questions, to keep you honest or to get your information without having to pay for it? This time I am done for good. I have swore off JD Power surveys before but I keep coming back for more. What a rot-gut company. Not a good way to start off your survey taking day.

i had been a member in great standing with this panel for over 10 years. i got deactivated all of a sudden about a month or so ago and im still not entirely sure why to this day. it started when i clicked on an invite, didnt even get answer 1 question and the next page told me it was a "technical terminate". say what. well i emailed and they told me they would look into it. okay i then the next day did a 4hr survey for $50. went to cash out and i was having all kinds of problems trying to cash out. i emailed again and then thats when i got the shocking news my account had been deactivated. they gave me all kinds of reasons why it happened, but none of them applied to me. emailed them several times since and now they are just ignoring me now, even after telling them i was going to the BBB. i almost felt like family as long as i had been with them. i had always had good dealings with them, so now i lost $57 i had in my account. i told them also that if i was dishonest as they say, then why wait over 10 years? i told them how honest i am in that when i knowingly made a wrong answer i would quit the survey on my own. just to keep something like this from happening. im at a loss.
