Whatatay Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 I just did a survey for Focus Forward and went to see how much I needed to cash out. Their FAQ now says you need $20.00 in your account. I have cashed out $10 as recently as October of 2009 so this is somewhat new. Looks like these companies are looking to fail or go under with the economy so they want to take our money with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
factonista Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Looks like these companies are looking to fail or go under with the economy so they want to take our money with them. Maybe not. Maybe raising the minimum payout reduces the administrative costs of cutting frequent checks and postage. The economy is affecting everyone these days. I will admit that I have a low balance and that it's taken me months to earn it. But last year I scored a $200.00 focus group from them, so I stay a panelist.

Whatatay Posted November 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Please don't be so naive. These survey companies make a ton of money compared to what they pay you to take one. The price of checks and postage is nothing, especially when they pay us what amounts to crumbs when compared to what they make for us taking these surveys.

factonista Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 That I know. But that's their rationale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
