rosiesmom Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I just received an emaiol from Opinion Outpost stating that the next time I redeem a reward I have to go through a process so they can verify my computer. AND they need my phone number so they can send mea PIN number to get through the redemption process. Uhm, HUH??? I haven't completed one survey with them in almost 3 weeks. Don't think I am going to jump through that hoop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kafei-Nation Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Yeah, I just got that email too. And I was all prepared to give them props for turning Amazon codes back on (which they did). I did this with great trepidation. The process was smooth, I got my SMS (from 1-646-217-0621), entered the code back into the OO website and my Amazon code arrrived shortly after. I just redeemed it onto my Amazon balance. The process worked smoothly, but I have real problems with having to give out my phone # like this. I regularly decline surveys where I am asked for my phone number. My phone is on a prepaid plan, and I do not want promotional or survey SMS messages shredding my balance. It frosts me that I had to do this to get my money out of OO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiestyvermin Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 That is scary. I have not seen that email but makes me wonder with everything why they need this information? Being able to send a pin number should make ZERO difference with the claim process. Just more intrusion into our lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisefun Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I just redeemed my points. I put them into paypal so they never asked me for my phone number. I checked paypal and the money is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avemaria Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 i wish they had more surveys but no one pays out faster than Opinion Outpost.. once you reach the limit of course. $5 for amazon though. I get a lot more on surveyhead but i'm sitting on $55 still pending until they 'review' the results.. i'm holding onto a freakout if they don't pay up.

rosiesmom Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I get almost not surveys from OO now. I get DQ'd all the time now, I used to make some money with them. Nothing big, just $20 twice a year, but that was fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillciaX Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 I don't know what happened this month, but I used to qualify for surveys all the time. Now I've just tried to take about 10 and don't qualify for any or I answer enough questions that should consider me qualified and I get "quota full" or "you don't qualify" and don't even get me started on these new sweeps surveys. DO NOT DO SURVEYS FOR SWEEPS. They are getting paid for your opinions for free if you do sweeps surveys. Do they ever post a winner on their page that wins the sweeps? I made about $60 in the past 2-3 months and just had a survey pop up 3 weeks ago that I took that I got $100 from. Now with this new system and sweeps they've got going on. I'll be lucky to make any money now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosiesmom Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I used to be able to cash out at least every 3 months. And i too do not qualify for many now. I finally have $6 in my account and I am ready to cashout. I will do paypal as well, so hopefully I don't have to go through the new process.
