peach6 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I received a survey today and tried to do it but when I got to the second question there was no next button so had to email them they used to respond quickly but that has changed not sure if I will hear back from them.

neminem Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Yeah, it's totally changed. It's pretty sad. They still pay well, but I absolutely agree that they used to respond quickly when there's an issue and I emailed them about it - the past year they haven't really ever responded.

episemion Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Same experience here. Prior to the router system , they were great at providing surveys and responding in emails. No longer. Now you are lucky to get a reply and even luckier to get one that actually answers the question. I have sent several inquiries over the past month or so with nary a response.

footfree Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Yeah just like their sister company Harris Poll contacting them has become a waste of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neminem Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Contacting Harris Poll had always been a waste of time, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true they haven't always been the best .But they have answered me once or twice a long time ago.But I think they have even gone further down hill recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
episemion Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Harris is horrid on customer service. Never have been able to get a reply to inquiries - including leaving voice messages (luckily it is a local number to me). At least Pinecone does reply some of the time , even if the reply does not answer the question. Been dealing with an issue with Pinecone lately and responses have been in 1-3 days. The issue is with not receiving any invites going on 3 weeks now. The last email sent to them on Monday detailed that my ISP was not blocking them and the invites are not going to any folders. They simply are not being sent. The reply I got basically said that there were no surveys those weeks (yet others say they have been getting them). Where do they hire their "Karen Scott" staff??? Based on what I can see , it looks like the account is either on hold or locked. When I go to the site , there are only limited options available. No means to access my profile. Still working on getting it resolved. Basically , I have given up on Harris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
episemion Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 At least one issue has been fixed (hopefully). Never heard anything from Harris , so on a whim , since I can get to my profile there , I changed the email to a different one. Invites started coming in. That was what i wanted to try with Pinecone , but with no access to the profile , not possible. A start in the right direction at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulgro Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Pinecone has become a pain with a slow server and Dq's that never happened before. The site is really getting bad!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosiesmom Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Sometimes I find what I am looking for under FAQ's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 It's there on mine is all I can say. To the right of pts it has a "MY PROFILE" link. Try another browser. I tried to upland and image but it's size is more than the limit allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
episemion Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Received a response today (Saturday). It seems that they deactivated the account over a month ago as I was to be removed from the panel - periodic freshening up. No notice of any kind. Never was that stated in any of the responses received in that time period. The invites still came up until almost 3 weeks ago. Does anyone there know what's what? Definitely NOT the old Pinecone! Guess that may explain why there is no access to the profile even though the account is still accessible and all other links work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard of Pinecone doing that don't know how they decide who is gone is it because they have to many panelists in that age group or race etc.It does not seem right when you have not done anything wrong I could see it if your not participating in the surveys given or you give crazy answers with Pinecone you never know when your time is up.
