Doubtful that they've been around since 1999 and just registered the domain a few months ago.

Privacy (Domains by Proxy) in their domain? Highly suspicious.

Seems very fishy (phishy?) to me.

How the heck are you? Was thinking about you when this was posted. I'm not sure, definitely won't be until I do more research. Will post. How about you?

I'm going to try it, but for those of you who haven't been doing surveys for long, goZing was a GREAT company about 6 or 7 years ago, then they started to suck BIG TIME. They got kind of like Greenfield...The surveys went from having very good incentives to offering nothing but a contest entry. They also started doing the "DNQ after 10-15 minutes of work" surveys, which IMO are borderline fraud (since they gather everything they need before they claim DNQ).

I'm gonna give this one a try...perhaps the goZing people realize how they screwed up and it'll be better this time. I tried Greenfield again last week after a 4-year hiatus and they seem much better now.

I might sign up if I have time, I don't really fill out many surveys this summer but hopefully when school starts again I'll have time. But anyway, I'm doing good, just working a lot to pay off those lousy school bills!

Somewhere in their history page I read that they are owned by Greenfield so I passed when I saw the info a few days ago(I'll dig up the info in a sec)..Whoops, had it bassackwards---the founders of goZing created Surveyhead which is owned by United Sample--goZing was bought out by Greenfield not Surveyhead---anyway I'm still gonna pass

Ok, I signed up and got my $5. I was offered one suvey for $1 and no time frame listed. It wasn't any particular survey...it was one of those ones which tries to pre-qualify you for all different surveys. After about 3 minutes of that, I got qualified for one...25 minutes. Ummmm, NO! I'm not doing a 25-minute survey for $1.00!!!

I'll keep checking back for a while, but it seems this site is set up the way the *old* Greenfield and goZing sites worked. I quit both of them!

FYI, it's been about a week since I decided to give Greenfield another chance and it really does seem better this time around. I've made about $20 so far, plus I have a $30 Invoke this week.
