Skullman Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 I registered with Five Surveys, the site that pays a dollar per survey regardless of the survey length. They say take 5 Surveys and make $5 which I did. I tried cashing out the $5 via PayPal and got a "error" saying *messages.claims.claim_blocked* first time. I tried multiple times over the last few weeks and same thing. I decided to try a gift card, to no avail I got the same message. I tried taking more surveys and over the course of several days I never qualified for a single one. I've read reviews and watched YouTube videos saying they pay and do so quickly. One YouTuber asked if I was in a supported country and I am, the U.S. and he seemed super surprised. I told him that and that I think they're a total scam just to get free surveys from people and he acted like he was offended, like he worked for them. Has anyone successfully got paid using the site? If so what is the catch to getting paid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Useless Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 I signed up about a month ago. I waited until I got $10 and it went fine, but I go for gift cards. As for the qualifying, I wouldn't use that as a criteria. Some times you go through dry spells just like any other survey site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommabear Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 I was just about to write a topic on that very site.. Been with them for a month now and always cash out when I reach 5 dollars. Paypal However, this is what I noticed.. After I complete 4 surveys it can take forever to qualify for the 5th.. It's like they do it on purpose.. Am I paranoid or what??

Useless Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 I'd say no. If you read reviews on phone apps that supposedly pay for playing games, you'll find the same thing every time. When you get near the cashout threshold, suddenly the players are getting a lot less per game than they used to. Could easily be the same thing here. I've also been through several surveys (not necessarily on Five Surveys) that required a lot of writing, then I get DQ'd at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullman Posted April 10 Author Report Share Posted April 10 I just downloaded their new app. No difference in the cash out problem, still says "claim blocked" so I'm still saying Five Surveys is a scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ13 Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 Joined and cashed out the first fiver and deleted account. Noticed that going through the "we're finding a survey for you" merry go round didn't pay because you are classed as screened out from the first site. No thanks there are much better out there.
