Survey Company Discussion & Review Thread

Hello survey lovers! Here is a thread just for you, to discuss various survey companies. The good, the bad and the ugly! Got a rant about a particular company? Here is your chance to vent. By the same token, got nothing but love for your favorite company? Share it with your fellow SD'ers!

The point of this thread is to help educate our fellow survey takers, both old and new, as to which companies are the most reputable to work with. Please keep in mind, however, that what one person may love about a certain company, another person may not.

This is a thread about opinions, but please be fair and honest in your descriptions. No slandering, no referrals, and no discussion of product tests.

In addition, please keep in mind that there are certain companies that, for certain reasons, do not wish to be discussed on message boards. These companies are listed in the survey forum rules, and may be found here.
https://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?sduid=51048&t=929574
You may also reference these rules for other FAQ's.

In addition, it might be helpful to keep a running tally in the Wiki of various survey companies as they come up for discussion. We can work together as a team to do this! Smilie

Have fun!

It doesn't recognize the card info *shrugs*. Thanks for the suggestion though. Big Grin I'll call the other number on Monday.
I have had this same problem multiple times with OneOpinion. Call this number: 1 888-908-3483. They can never tell me what is wrong with their system but I have had to call about 4 or 5 times now.

Thank you! That's good to know. I'm kinda tempted to stop taking surveys from them if it's going to be a hassle to use the card every time.

It is annoying to call them but their customer service is amazing, thus I actually look forward to their surveys. But to each their own, wish you the best luck!

Putting this here, because it's good info for people new to taking surveys:

Do not accept surveys that sound like this:

ClearVoice. Didn't know they suspended my account. I started to DQ for all their surveys. Checked redeem section and my account is suspended for fraud. Emailed them and they said "My bad." Gotta love these survey companies.

Pat: let me know if I can help! Smilie

Hongsc and IC: I wonder if it is because they are connected with USA talk, Resoloution, etc. Could be they wrongfully block people for so called fraud because you are members of several of their companies? An example is Survey Spot and Opinion Outpost. I think the same thing happens with them.

Happen to me too. Their site is really buggy lately. I hate how they recently add the stupid prescreener questionnaire. I can't even take their surveys because there are bugs in the prescreener. When I do, I usually get DQ because my profile did not match the survey.
