Ipoll closing down

[elsielc]

i got this a few hours ago:

iPoll is shutting down on August 8, with surveys no longer available from August 1.

❗️ Once our website closes, you'll no longer be able to log in or redeem rewards, so please redeem your iPoll Currency before then.

❗️ If you have outstanding Currency left in your balance but don't have enough to redeem a reward, please consider taking surveys before they become unavailable.

 

This was one of the survey sites i never had problems with.  i would only hope that they would allow people to cash out with whatever they have in their account instead of having to reach a minimum $ payout.

ipoll and One Opinion are both owned by Dynata.

Yep, and both shutting down the same day. Sounds like Dynata's having problems (is it mean that I hope that's the reason? ), or are just consolidating their websites.

i've been trying to take surveys on the ipoll site to get to the rewards level and most are now booting me out or even when taking a long survey that i think i will get poines, it says my answers don't meet the needs of the survey.  so i think they are trying not to have to pay out more until they  close.  i've never had this type of problem before with ipoll.

And Dynata seems to be the only one using Veriff that requires a pic of a government issued ID to cash out. Coincidence???

I thought Prolific requires their new people to submit an ID too.  That is why I did not join them last year.

I believe that new members do need to submit that information

So does Valued Opinion I stopped doing there surveys because I wouldn't be able to cash out unless I gave them that information and I'm not doing that

I hope that's not going to be the norm for survey sites in the future

I really think that is wrong on any site that you have been a member for a long time and they now require that information

I do belong to Prolific I do not have to give them that info since its just new members if I did I would be done with them also

Hoping the same thing. What if someone uses public transportation (no need for a driver's license) and has no passport?

Having to provide such ID is bad enough , but the company handling it is in Estonia. Sensitive ID data , foreign country - what could possibly go wrong??

Do a search on "'Veriff". Plenty of people having issues with them.

Another one. Not good.
