HotSpex is a unique online community where participants are invited to participate in online surveys and innovate for leading brands. Members are dubbed "Hotspex Innovators" and earn "BUX" points redeemable for gift cards, PayPal payments, charitable donations, and more in exchange for their participation. Cash giveaways and prize draws are also available.

Gone down the tubes....

September 17, 2010 by Rick from United States

Something has happened with Hotspex... not sure if they are going broke or what... but they don't have as many surveys... their incentives are totally bogus now... and the are not worth your time... I've gone and closed my account with them. They asked why and I told them. They didn't answer my questions about the company issues. I guess they don't want their peps out there to hear anything bad about the company... but we already noticed... see ya hotex

No incentives, no surveys, no reply from customer service

September 17, 2010 by Lisa from United States

The old incentive system, which involved exchanging reward points on Points.com, was complicated, but now the only incentives are donations to charities no one has ever heard of and contests for prizes that no one wants. Also they never mailed me a single survey (I only took ones that were available on their home page), and customer service did not respond to repeated queries. This is one of the worst panels out there.

Hotspex used to be good

Cool fun surveys but your reward is now only an entry into sweepstakes that I have never won. Unless you like wasting your time skip this one. Not sure why it is so highly rated. Maybe because it is not listed in the list of surveys to rate

Waste of time

September 17, 2010 by Leisha from United States

I joined this survey site a couple of months ago. I have never received a survey from them. I have gone onto their website and completed a couple of surveys on there but have never won a prize. They recently changed things around and I still have not received any surveys. It seems like a waste of time.

WASTE OF TIME

September 17, 2010 by Lindsay from United States

Yes they have the best designed surveys that make completing them fun and interesting but at the end of the day....it's all for nothing. There are no gift cards, points.com was cancelled, the prizes you can bid on give you about a one in a million chance of winning. Other then donating your "Bux" to a charity, you get nothing from them. Don't waste your time...seriously.
