I am sure we all got this email beginning with the following: "Just a few more days until PaidViewpoint’s rebrand takes place! Get ready for a fresh logo, updated colors, and a modernized design that'll make your experience even better." I believe in the expression "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" but that doesn't ever seem to be the case nowadays. All sites update and then we, as the user, have to get used to all the changes. For me most of the changes are totally unnecessary and just make it so much more difficult to navigate a site. Yes, we all eventually get used to the changes but more often than not, these changes are totally unnecessary. But this is JMHO. I really like PaidViewpoint and hope these changes are truly for the better. Am I the only one that feels "Leave well enough alone." ? Thanks for your input6 points

Been with them a few years and though I belong to about 4-5 other sites , this is the one I recommend to others. Today I received a personal email from them giving me Kudos for what they deemed an 'awesome response' I gave recently( can't remember what it was) so I got an extra 20 points. It's the thought that counts.. unlike the other sites who don't give a hoot how much though you put into responses that require detail. So Kudos PV too6 points

I hate them but worse are the captcha pictures. Click on all of the motorcycles. Do I click on the end of the back wheel which is also in a box? I guess not because they give me another one and on. and on. These are ridiculous. Of course I'm not a robot. They really insult our intelligence.6 points

I think the "survey cat" one is during the survey the cat pops up and lets you know you're doing great, just a few more questions the cat shows up a number of times and the survey is a political one where you answer the questions then have to review some videos at the end6 points

I am only doing surveys for the Amazon GCs. Because I have the gift cards, I am able to buy stuff that I would not be able to afford otherwise. I had to replace my computer printer, and I got an Epson ecoprinter which was $250. I love it, but if I did not have the gift cards, I would not spend that much on a printer. I have had it for a year, and I have not had to replace the ink yet. With my old printer I was always replacing the ink. I also spent $500 on a stereo that I bought on Amazon with my gift cards.6 points

I just thought of a new superpower to put next time I see that one. The power to finish and be awarded by every survey I take no matter what.5 points
-
I know. I've lost count of how many times I had to describe the perfect day, vacation, pizza, or what ingredients I would use to build a taco. Or that one asking if you could have any superpower, what would it be?5 points

The superpower one is guaranteed to induce a groan and a sinking feeling from me.5 points

I don't like the Cloud Connect Surveys aka CloudResearch, The screener always asks you if you know the meaning of a bogus list of words or if you can remember all the names of every President in US history.5 points

I refer to it as supplemental income, not a job per se, as I don't see how you can make a living by taking surveys. It's more in the category of gigs and side hustles. I suppose you could call it being a paid "influencer".5 points

IRS announces delay in Form 1099-K reporting threshold for third party platform payments in 2023; plans for a threshold of $5,000 for 2024 to phase in implementation Changing it to $5,000 seems fair. The $600 was ridiculous IMHO.5 points

I've dealt well with picture captchas in the past, where you check off cars, fire hydrants or whatever to prove you are human. But as of late they have been impossible for me. The pictures are grainy, indistinct and more often than not they are very hard to see.. I've wasted as much as 10 minutes prior to being allowed to begin a survey. Sometimes they even switch me to a sound captcha where I write out what I hear. Very frustrating and a waste if time. This problem started out of the blue about a week ago. Anyone else experiencing this newest time-waster?5 points

After 7 years of doing surveys, I'm taking some time off from them. The dishonesty, babbling, repetition and insanity that pervades them finally overwhelmed me. It'll be at least several weeks before I start grappling with them again.5 points

JD Power surveys since you can't qualify for them 99% of the time, and in the rare times when you do, you typically get disqualified at some point in the survey. Also Datacollection based surveys for also being nearly impossible to qualify for, which is weird because 5 years ago they were highly reliable, but now they suck. I also hate pretty much any survey where you get asked an open-ended question that requires answering in sentences before you even qualify for the main survey...5 points
-
YES!!! I HATE the surveys that ask you to tell them what superpower you would have and why. I always just exit out. AND the credit card surveys that take an hour to do. I've got no patience for that.5 points

Paid Viewpoints is really good once you get your trait score raised to 10,000. Until then you get a lot of $.10 surveys. I think yougov is good too, and Clear Voice. Survey Police also has a list of the best survey sites every year.4 points

I told them I would give them a Rave becsue they always get back to me when I have an issue like not getiing my points from completing a survey. I do not contact them each time it happens.4 points

Would have selected "2" since that is the same position in the alphabet as "B". Worst that could happen is a DQ.4 points

How about the ones in which you answer eight prescreen questions and a few from the survey, and then they finally say, "We are looking for married men age 40-55 who own their own business and have at least one underage mistress. If you or someone in your household quality, please have them take this survey." How about making that the first thing in the survey?4 points
-
How about the ones that ask about your household income last year and they have ranges going up to $200,000 or more. Do they really think anyone making $200,000 a year is going to piddle around with online surveys?4 points

I don't consider it a job. It is the way I can make a little extra money for a few frills in life that I could not otherwise afford.4 points
-
It this is a job, I cannot see making enough money to support myself. I would consider it like using coupons at the grocery store where I save a little. Years ago, I did keep track of my coupon savings and put the money aside for gifts. I will be interested in other opinions.4 points

I am exceedingly impressed with Tellwut Customer Support. I took a survey and joined a site for 1000 points almost two weeks ago. I never got the points so I contacted CS. They have gotten back to me without my prodding to let me know they are working on it, as the site must get back to them with a list of those who joined and are active members. I do hope I get the points asap. Time will tell. So CS in this particular instance really IS on top of the case and for me this is surely an exception to the rule for any site. Thank you Tellwut CS!4 points

We all post our problems and frustrations and that's fine, what this board is for. How about a change of pace for a change? Today I was taking a survey on beverages and I was asked which beverages I drink. I was given numerous choices, lots of trick possibilities thrown in to see if we are paying attention. Most trick choices are just plain stupid, but this particular choice actually made me laugh. The choice was toasted shoelace tea! The creator of this survey actually has a sense of humor. Have you ever seen toasted shoelace tea as a choice on a survey? It's a first for me.4 points

I am definitely not comfortable giving out that information who knows where that picture could end up on the internet I don't trust any of the survey companies with that stuff.4 points

Quite normal. Surveys are dependent on how many responses the originator needs. Some require way less than others and simply fill up in a matter of a minutes. The only quibble I have at PV is with ones that you start and are near completion only to receive the message that the early birds got it. If you start a survey , that should qualify one to finish it.4 points

It goes back to who the heck makes these surveys and do they get checked by a supervisor? Doesn't seem so4 points

Any survey with excessive bubble formats, each a page long spreadsheet of answers for every brand of company being reviewed. It's not only that they are long and tedious but so many of them are just idiotic to the point they're irrelevant.4 points

is anyone else as sick of this as I am?? there has been times it repeats itself 3 times before you get into a survey or it disqualifies you. i wish surveys would have a 'comment' button so you could tell them what you think of their surveys which are inconsistent, riduculous, or inane...4 points

One that gets on my nerves is, "If you could have any superpower, what would it be?" I've articulately answered this one countless times but never get qualified for a survey. I simply exit the survey whenever I see this asinine question.4 points

This was by far the best part of your post! I can totally relate. Some of the longer more tedious surveys can really wear you down. Like those ones with all the rows of radio buttons. Sometimes I have to just get up and walk away for a bit...but not too long or they'll screen you out. Unfortunately, the pattern you have been seeing with the decline in pay and survey quality I have been aware of too. I started in 2016 and it's pretty much gone downhill. I've lost count of all the ones that have come and gone. Some I signed up with again and it was great for awhile, but then it collapses again. I'm down to just a handful of survey sites, it's gotten so bad. I'm really sorry to hear you are leaving the survey world, but I don't blame you. Recently, I've been dabbling more into user testing panels. So far it seems more promising and the compensation pays better than surveys. I look at it as another form of supplemental income.4 points
