So do I!!!!

I'm really getting fed up with survey panels that I use to have no trouble with payouts, but now they require a cell phone to send a text message before cashing-out. I do NOT have one & THAT is discrimination. Period!

Paypal has a new game. For the past 3 days, whenever I log in, they put up a "security challenge" that consists of a capcha check to see that you're not a robot & then picking out various objects from a grid of pictures. WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS!!!!! I've been on Paypal since 2009!!!!!

Dynata are awful for this. Ever had the one where they ask you what you would take to the beach or something, or the one about about your favorite sandwiches, complete waste of time. I always give them silly answers.

Thank you very much for your feedback. Yeah, I wasn't sure what they meant by "separate locker" outside the study area. I had no way of knowing if someone else would be holding the key or had access to it. Furthermore, it made ZERO sense why there would be any reason to leave your wallet and keys behind during a study. The whole thing sounded shady and it was for a company I was not familiar with located in a bad neighborhood (Brownsville, Brooklyn). Thank you all for the support. I feel better about cancelling now. It just seems much harder these days to get accepted for any type of focus group or study. Years ago, I would get invited to one at least twice per month. Now, hardly ever. It almost seems companies and brands just stopped caring about what consumers think.

These are not demographic questions. They are endless nonsense questions, sometimes as many as 25 like about your lawn, just unrelated stuff. Then after 10 minutes, they tell you you're not qualified. This is why I don't do One Opinion anymore. They were great until they started this Dynata nonsense. Plus they pay so little for a half hour! You make 5x as much for a few minutes on Prolific with surveys that are really interesting. I wish there were more like that company.

I absolutely love spending 25min on a survey, that bores me to tears and then get nothing for it, I just love having my time wasted by these awful scam survey companies (yes, I'm talking to you Qmee) I am losing the will to do surveys, everyday I am getting scammed and I've had enough. What is the point, I lost about £3.20 yesterday on surveys that didn't pay and when you email the useless site, you get the complementary copy and paste reply. The sad thing is, nothing will ever get done about it.

Surprised no-one has mentioned this on the forum but Survey Network closed without warning, after not replying to any e-mails I had sent for about a month, and took all my money! The lovely message they left on their webpage now reads 'We would like to thank you for all your loyalty through the years, but unfortunately with the current economic situation and the fact that a lot of market research clients are merging as well as paying less for all market research services we provided them, we decided to shut down the website. Thanks again for all your loyalty' Yeah, thanks for all your loyalty and all your money...
