A reliable Survey Panel

February 17, 2019 by Cathy from United States

I've been a member for years, and I do like this panel. Sometimes their screeners are rather long then you screen out, that is really a pain. The survey invites seem to come in waves; you get a lot then not much for a while. But they do pay out, and last year I won some $ in their sweepstakes, definitely worth hanging in there.

Very Good Company

January 16, 2019 by David from United States

I'm very surprised with all the negative reviews here regarding i-Say. I've been a member for many years and have never had any problems with this company. They always pay out in a reasonable time and I have received e-certificates sometimes within a few hours after cashing out. Sometimes I have gone through a lengthy preliminary questionnaire only to find out "I didn't qualify" which can be frustrating but this has only happened a few times. One thing I would like is to be able to have to option to do more surveys by going directly to their page instead of waiting for a email from them. Overall this is one of my favorite survey companies!

Bad Service. Site Issues. Takes Forever.

January 10, 2019 by Paul from United States

UPDATE JANUARY 2019. I finally had enough with the technical problems, the slow or nonexistent support, the surveys that will not load or are broken, the lack of available surveys, the non-response to password reset requests, yada, yada, yada. Enough already. Enough time and effort wasted. I am done with this bunch. Be warned.
UPDATE AUGUST 2018: A perpetual problem continues to be that the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing at this site. You're logged in on the main site page, and they have your profile already in their system. The main page says, for example, that you have 5 surveys available. So you click on any one of those surveys, or all of them, and you get a message stating that no surveys are available. If no surveys are available, why did you tell us that 5 are available? Jeeeeeeeez, people. Get it together.
UPDATE; THE SITE IS EXPERIENCING GREAT DIFFICULTY ALLOWING PEOPLE TO COMPLETE MULTI-WEEK DIARY ENTRIES. YOU JUST GO IN CIRCLES. THE SUPPORT DESK IS NO HELP AT ALL. THE BORED-SOUNDING, INDIFFERENT, CURT WOMAN WHO ANSWERS THE PHONE AT 800-745-4267 NEEDS TO FIND A JOB IN WHICH PEOPLE SKILLS ARE NOT REQUIRED. THIS COMPANY COULD HAVE SEARCHED THE WORLD OVER FOR TWENTY YEARS AND NOT FOUND A LESS ABLE CANDIDATE. This site has a good variety of different surveys that are sometimes unusual, which is good. Payment speed is average -- they always pay, but not super fast. The two major problems are: (1) the site often has issues where you try to finish a multipart, multiple-day journal but the thing freezes up and will not let you finish, but you have to wait and wait and wait for a glacial response from support; and (2) you can do week after week after week with no new surveys available, making you seriously consider just canceling and giving up.

Not worth the time

January 4, 2019 by Tiffany from United States

I did a recent study that was a month long and I had to download an app that ran in the background while completing the study. I received an email from the study on November 21, 2018 saying that I completed the study, I could remove the app, and I would be paid in the next 5-7 business days. It's been two weeks later and I still have not been paid for completing the study. I reached out to them at the email they provided me with three or four times and still have not received a response. Due to the inconsistency of their studies and payouts...I am going to just delete my account. There are numerous survey sites that pay better and are more consistent...Ipsos-Isay is NOT one of them.

Update: An Ipsos representative name Chester sent me an email on December 7, 2018 saying that I would be paid within a week's top. It is January 4, 2019 and I still have not been paid for that study.
