This company only sends about 1-2 surveys a week (sometimes less), but they are usually good pay for the time investment.

Here's the survey I got this morning. No PT, but it only took about 5 minutes. It's about beverages.
We will pay you $3.00 to complete this new survey.

Been with this one for at least 1 1/2 yrs and have made a whopping $6.00. They do send payment. For me took about 2 months. I wish I got 1-2 chances a week.

I did one this morning on sandwhiches. This is the first time I have done one even though I get their emails all the time. I'm desperate for cash so I decided to give it a try. Does anyone know how long it takes to get the checks?

What bugs me is that I never know whether I've even successfully completed the survey or not -- they don't seem to have a link where you can track what surveys you've taken and what rewards you've earned. The last 2 surveys I've gotten invitations for seemed to kick me out prematurely, so I assumed I didn't qualify, yet just last week I got a $5 check for the first of those two seemingly aborted surveys.

i have done several surveys for them and i have always gotten my payments with no problem. they just take a couple of months to pay, like someone mentioned earlier, but they do pay. i only get a survey from them every couple of months, maybe 9 or 10 a year, or so. so, give them a try. i don't think i've ever gotten one from them that was less than $5.:nod:

I have been doing surveys for this company for approximately five years but now that I think of it, I have not been paid for a while either. They have, in the past, always sent a check VERY quickly. I guess I will give them the benefit of the doubt since they have treated me fairly in the past. Plus I am doing a gum product test that pays fifty.

I finally got a Buzz Back survey after a long dry spell, dated 11/08/08. It was about coffee drinks for $5.00.
I started the survey and at page 3 it started messing up when you went to advance the page. I was able to get to the next page , but the page after that would not come up. I took a screen shot and sent it to them along with an explanation. I could not complete that survey.
Not sure what's going on with them but I was averaging 3 surveys a week from them and then nothing for at least two months. They are behind on checks too, haven't seen a check since late August.

On 3/12 I received an email with a survey asking if I'd be interested in PayPal.
Then on 3/20 they sent me this:
Thank you for answering our short survey on information about PayPal.
Next week we will be starting the process of paying you through PayPal and since you indicated you already have a PayPal account, please ensure your BuzzBack email address is listed under your main account (you can list up to 7 email addresses), that way we can insure you receive your cash to your main account. Once we have transferred the cash to your account PayPal will notify you!
Some information about PayPal:
** Recipents of payments through PayPal can electronically transfer their money to a checking account, send money to friends, or shop online.
** No more paper checks, no more depositing checks at the bank.
** Faster and safer for the environment.
If you have questions please do not hesitate to contact us
Thank you
- The BuzzBack Team
All I can suggest is of course logging in to your account to see if that payment option is available or email them.
Good luck to all! :wave:

And sometimes it takes over 4 months. I've been waiting for a $3 payment since January 16. My last 3 payments from them were like pulling teeth because I had to email about every single one being way past 12 weeks due. They say it hasn't been processed.I thought that's why they switched to paypal, to eliminate all the ruckus and long waits?

I've yet to get the Paypal payment offer so I e-mailed them to say I'm really interested. I had quit doing their surveys because it took so long to get the checks, and we don't always get our mail.
We're also moving in a couple of months and I didn't know if their checks would be forwarded or not, and by the time they processed my payments we may not be living here anymore.....:lol:

I find it odd that everyone got there payments from them until Feb 09 and no one seems to have gotten paid from then? So I emailed them and got a pretty pathetic response can anyone else understand WTF there talking about? I just told them I haven't got paid from 3 surveys from Feb 09 and this was there response:confused:
We do not currently have account information on our website, but are
working on making this feature available to you soon. In the meantime,
please feel free to email us here with any questions you may have.

Is this by any chance the one you're supposed to use Twitter to send them reports with? If so, I hope you got them to accept your request to "follow"... because MY delivery of this PT came after the end of their business day, and naturally they're not accepting my request and there's no one at their office to reply to calls or emails... and the first Tweet has to come by the end of Sunday or no payment. :mad: :mad: :mad:
