GammiWoo Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 I'm 49 with both older and younger kids in the household, married, homemaker. I used to qualify for everything they sent me and now, I'm lucky to qualify for 1-2 per month. I get maybe 1-2 invites per week. The big tell for me is customer service.The shop tracker has decided not to accept my info anymore. I've sent 2-3 emails concerning it to "Karen". NO answer. Not even a generic answer. In fact, there has been no answer from customer svc in the last 2 months. It's mind boggling. I can't imagine why they've done this. Also, from recent experience, I don't get the 300 points for about 2-3 days. It used to be next day. I also don't get the measly $3 in paypal for anywhere from 2 days up to a week.

episemion Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Several months back , the "household questions" that I got were such that they might actually get you a survey. The past 5 weeks or so , no longer. The questions now are a combo of repeating demographics (age , ZIP Code , etc.) and tobacco / alcohol related questions. After several sets of those and the wait for the interface , I get one of the following: - "Survey not yet available." (why send me to it??) - "Survey not available in your area" (makes no sense , plus they have asked for my ZIP Code several times) - "You have already completed the survey" (HUH?? Why send me to it then? This started the past 2 weeks.) I see posts from people in my demographic that are getting several to actually do each week. Not sure how. Emailing "Karen Scott" is a waste of time as the responses rarely even have anything to do with the question. Pinecone used to be a 4.5 star rating in my book. Not even close now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Njsurveyman Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 I received a Pinecone invite this past Friday, clicked on the email link only to get this message, "Oops, something went wrong". I emailed Karen Scott and no reply. She used to be good at getting back to me right away. Something must have changed with their management in a negative way.

rosiesmom Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 I got a household question one over the weekend but it wouldn't load up. So I emailed and Karen Scott got back to me today and I actually took a survey. I have no idea why I have issues with some surveys. But I got to do one!

episemion Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Got one Tuesday morning that asked 3 questions (ZIP Code was one) and then sent me to a survey which promptly informed me that it was not available in my area. Been getting that a lot there lately. Emailed "Karen Scott" to report the issue. May get a response , hopefully one that actually addresses the query! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosiesmom Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 I just got an invite, but when I clicked on the link it automatically took me to a screen that said that my profile didn't fit the survey. How do they know that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume surveys would be for all of the states. I live in NY. The new router system really needs a lot of work (or a total scrapping)!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njsurveyman Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 At the end of completing a Pinecone Survey recently, I just noticed there is something that offers you a guaranteed 300 pts per month for downloading a software app on your laptop or phone! Did anyone attempt this? Is it legit and safe? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
