This seems to be a reputable panel, BUT I've completed about 80% of all the surveys sent for 4 months and am still nowhere near the lowest cash-out level of $50. It will take me well over a year to get there!

Been a member for over two years and not even close to hitting the minimum cash out amount of $50. Majority of the surveys taken throughout my time only rewarded me entry into draws. Maybe a reduction in the minimum cash out should be done as this is the only site for which it's taken more than a year (or 16 months) to qualify and cash in for a reward (and I'm still only just barely over half the $50 minimum). If you're looking to just participate with few rewards for your participation, then this site is for you.

I'll also like to add that if you don't participate in any surveys in 3 months (90 days) then they will cancel your membership.

I've been a user of Angus Reid since 2011, The surveys content are varied, they are interesting to do, and there's always room at the end for some comments (being errors, mistakes or optimization features. I find a lot of times some multiple choice questions could use a "none of the above" option, and for some reason the word "Portuguese" is always missing the U, even though I've been submitting feedback on it for ages). The surveys are a lot more frequent now, maybe a result of the Maru/Matchbox changes, averaging 6 per month.

However, the amount of points awarded for our time is very low, especially considering some of them take up to 25 minutes to fill out. In all these years I have only managed to redeem rewards once. It takes ages to get to the $50 mark required to redeem anything.

I have finally accumulated enough points to redeem for the second time (Paypal) and while the redemption process is easy enough and you get an instant email stating you will receive your reward in 2-4 days, it has been 5 weeks now of contacting support about it and no result. Neither do I have the points, nor the Paypal funds. The ONLY time they sent me anything other than a non-automated reply was after contacting them 3 times, asking me to confirm my email address. I can't confirm my email any more than this, its' still the same from which I contacted them and receive my surveys at... I even gave them another email that's tied to my Paypal account.

The site boosts having and more draws/contests per month, except no winners have been listed at all since November 2016, even though there are supposedly 2 monthly draws. They also boost "greatly reduced delivery times" and "a team dedicated to assisting with all your rewards-related issues". This is completely false. I can get a digital reward from other survey sites within a week, sometimes instantly. I don't see what can possibly be the issue with this! I will be submitting a complaint with the BBB.

I have been part of the Angus Red panel for over ten years and have had a lot of fun with their frequent, interesting in depth surveys. One thing that I really appreciate is the incentives match the survey length. Your time and effort are always well rewarded. Many incentive options and feedback for your loyalty as a member of the panel.
