You have to accumulate 55,000 points to get $50. I wish all I needed was 5,000 points to receive $50. I need 1,400 more points to cash out for a $25 Amazon GC.

I never make any where near $1,000 from a survey company. About the most I have made from an individual survey company has been $200 in one year. I don't smoke or drink a lot or go out to eat very often, and I don't have kids or make $100,000 a year, and I am not a minority person. The only surveys I do well with is for people on medicare. I have done at least two market research projects for people on medicare, and I am in an online medicare panel right now that I just made $5 today, and I am going to make $30 next week from them. I have been with them for a year. I also did an online panel maybe four years ago run by AARP, in which I was a member for a year, and I got at least a $10 Amazon GC once a month, and some months I got more, and it only took me about 30 minutes a month.

Many legitimate survey sites do not inform you if you are eligible until you have spent five minutes doing a survey. I belong to valued opinion, and the last time I logged into my account I spent over 30 minutes doing surveys, and I was not eligible for any of them. Knowledge Panel is by invitation only, and most of us can not get into it.

3,000 points is only three dollars. I have been part of yougov for probably five years. I am lucky if I am able to cash out once a year for $30. I get maybe one survey every weeks. The last time I got a survey it was only worth 350 points. The only reason I stay with them is because I never get denied, and their surveys are usually very interesting ones, and they are often about politics.

Have you contacted the survey company to ask them why you are not receiving any more surveys? There is a good chance you were removed from the panel. Either they don't like your answers, or you are rushing through the surveys. You know they are going to send you a 1099 if they have not already, and you will have to declare the money on your taxes. I have never made anywhere close to $1,300 from one survey company, let alone in less than two months. I thought I was doing good because this week I have made $35 in Amazon GC. I have done some surveys for Pop Rewards through another survey company. Either Clear Voice or Valued Opinions, and all I have gotten paid is I think $.25. It has been awhile since I have done a survey for them though. I am older, and I don't have any children, and so a lot of survey companies don't want me..

I guess I'm lucky because all the sites I have joined are pretty good though I haven't joined that many.... Only three and 1 of them doesn't exist anymore... One of the sites I belong to is called "knowledgepanel" I have cashed out like $2,000 from this site though it has taken me several years but I think is a decent amount! Now, I have tried some survey sites that have great reviews but I just fail to understand why those sites have such good reviews... My guess is that people who have reviewed those sites used to make part of panels where they would never receive any surveys or maybe they would get paid 10 cents for 40 minute surveys so one day they discovered a survey site that pays 30 cents for 40 minute surveys and they can't help but assume that those survey sites are "wonderful".... now, I also wonder if some people who leave those nice reviews were paid to say those things. Now, I think something that has probably increased my likelihood of receiving well paid surveys is the fact that I'm hispanic and for some reason survey sites seem to have a preference for so called "minorities"... something I don't really agree with... I mean, it's nice that they are sending me those surveys (often in spanish) but I don't really agree with affirmative actions... I don't think people should receive special favors just because of their ethnicity, race, gender etc... I'm definitely not a liberal.

I've never made it past that first screen with demographic questions. it is so tedious on my tablet that I can't be bothered with them.

I was ready to check out with Branded yesterday, had accumulated just over 15 dollars, problem is I couldn't find the redeem button. Then I went to look at my history and found out that I had not completed a survey since the 24th of September. The last dozen or so surveys in the list said "technical error". So they are not allowing me to qualify for a survey and I can't check out. I Emailed them, let's see how long it takes them to respond. Anyone else experiencing a problem with Branded or do they just have it in for me? I really do get tired of this.
