Hotspex is the most trendy survey company

no cash!

September 17, 2010 by Melissa from United States

These are probablt the most fun surveys to take because they include photos of product packaging and it's interactive, however if you're doing surveys for cash or rewards, Hotspex is NOT the way to go! You get minimal points for surveys instead of cash, and it will takes months to even get enough points for a simple gift certificate which yo have to go through another site to get. Surveys aren't very often -once a week at best.

Where's the beef?

You can cash in your rewards (bux) for 1) a chance in a monthly drawing, chances to win monthly draws (raffles), donate them to charity, or use points.com to exchange them for airline frequent flyer miles.

The only realistic choice is to convert them on points.com. There is a conversion function that can tell you how much hot spex bux will get you on the various programs available on points.com. For example, 300 hotspex bux gets you 118 USAir dividend miles. I recomend you check out your rewards before deciding to jump into HotSpex

Poor Incentives!!!

Speaking from personal experience this is one of the worst survey sites around. I do have to give them credit for the fact you can donate your points to charity. Thats what I did with my points right before leaving them. If your looking for a site to put some coin in your pocket or for nice prizes then this is NOT the place for you. Surveys are boring and the reward value is low to nothing. Yes you can possibly win in their drawing, but the odds are slim to none. The survey questions at times seem strange. I wasn't sure what they were trying to survey for. Oh well I won't waste my time here ever again.

Hotspex Rocks

I love this site, they always have fun surveys for bux which you can buy raffles or exchange to charities or points for prizes. I never win anything and i just recently won the Lost seasons 1 - 3 on DVD. I was told to wait 2 weeks for my prize to get here, and i got it in like 3 days. The people at customer support are extremely nice and so very helpful. I am going to get all my friends involved with them as well. I highly recommend HotSpex to anyone.
