KEY FEATURES:

MyOpinions is Australia’s #1 paid survey website, and offers cash and rewards in exchange for sharing your opinions on various topics and products.

Join Quickly, Using Your Existing Accounts

If you have a Facebook or LinkedIn account, you can simply connect one of these accounts with MyOpinions in order to join in seconds! Alternatively, sign up the traditional way by completing their registration form.

Take Surveys, Earn Points

Surveys generally take between 10-40 minutes. The longer the survey, the more points you stand to gain! For each survey you successfully complete, you will earn between 10-400 points for your participation. 100 points is the equivalent of approximately $1.00.

Redeem Your Points for Flexi eGift Cards

With 1,100 points ($10), in your account, you can request an instant cashout for a Flexi eGift card. These cards can then be converted into other retailer gift cards including Apple, Woolworths, Myer, Coles, Dominoes, Playstaion, David Jones, JB-Hifi, and many more. Flexi eGift card codes are e-mailed and are available in denominations of $10, $20, $50, and $100. The Flexi eGift card should arrive into the email address you provided within 2 working days of the request.

Get Paid By PayPal, Instead

If you prefer to get paid to your PayPal account, when you have 2,000 points in your account, you may request a $20 PayPal payment. With 10,600 points you can request a $100 payment. The processing time for PayPal payments can vary, while Flexi eGift cars are issued immediately after request.

Cash Prize Draws

Sign up and each successful survey completion will give you an entry into the quarterly $5,000 cash prize draw in addition to the points you are credited for the survey. The draw happens quarterly.

Refer-a-Friend Program

Earn up to 500 points for referring friends and family! All your referral has to do is sign up and complete one survey for you to collect your points.

Loyalty Program

MyOpinions offers a Loyalty Status program where as you complete more surveys, you progress to a higher loyalty level. There are currently 5 tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Platinum Plus. The higher your level, the more weekly bonuses on surveys you will receive, up to a maximum of 10%.

I have been a member of MyOpinions now for over 5 years, and at the beginning it was a little slow in getting surveys, however as the years have progressed, I have been getting more and more. I tend to qualify for 80% of these surveys and last year, cashed out over $800 in vouchers. I am very happy with this site and have only ever had one issue where they banned me, however after investigating, we found that one of my mate's had been a little abusive in one of the surveys without my knowledge whilst I had to leave the survey for 5 min. This issue was sorted and I was allowed back.

Not worth the time for rewards received. I was able to cash in rewards once but never again after. After asking for assistance over and over again with out success their support team canceled my account and I had lost all of my rewards. Each time they kept sending me the same copy and paste answer that didn't work.

Wish i read these reviews before wasting my time, time i could of been spending with my children!!! Have emailed them twice no response and even tried calling no answer. Dont waste your time people's!

My account had the equivalent of $100 in it. When I tried to cash in $50 to PayPal, My Opinions shut me out of my account saying I had breached terms and condition. Sent an email, they asked for more details, I replied, nothing. That was a lot of wasted time.

Update: after several emails my account was reinstated and I finally managed to get my rewards. I will continue with this survey site but take payments more frequently (I used to like to let it mount up to something substantial). When trying to get vouchers it would only allow me one $50 voucher out of my $100. As I tried again later it was about a week until I could claim my second, even though there is no mention of a delay between payments. I have raised my initial one star to 2.5 stars since they finally came good but not before giving me considerable grief. All I can say people, is that if you have been wronged, do persevere especially if you have a reasonable sum riding on it.

The only heartening thing I find in reviewing "My Opinions" is that I find I am not the only one wronged by this group. I have been doing "My Opinions Postman" surveys for several years (Points Balance 27,659) and :"Opinion World" since December, 2016). All going well until 10 March 2017. I didn't qualify for all surveys, but suddenly from both "M.O.P" and "O.W" the most common message received told me, "unfortunately we are unable to record your participation in this survey", followed by four suggested reasons, all of which were absolute nonsense. After 10 March, I suddenly found that I did not qualify for a single survey. Wrote to "[email protected]". The reply repeated the previously received four suggestions and added three more - again, absolute nonsense.

Rang the 1-800 number (Connecticut, USA) and explained all to a woman who promised to look into my problem and get back within a few days. No reply after a week, so thought it advisable to cash in my rewards.

Surprise! Surprise! When I try to Log In, I am met with the notice, "Your membership has been terminated as result of the violation of the My Opinions Terms and Conditions." Letter to "[email protected]" and also to "[email protected]" to find out which of the Terms and Conditions I had suddenly violated and how I could redeem my reward points. Have not received an answer, and am not holding my breath.

Does anyone know if there is a contact point in Australia other than the three email addresses I have already used?

Does the Survey Police website offer any support for those of us caught up in this deceit, or is it merely a forum where those of us who feel cheated can let off a bit of steam?

The above was first posted back in May. No surprise that the 26 posts since my original all tell the same story. I followed up the letters mentioned above with a letter to Head Office in Connecticut. No surprise that months later a reply has not been received. No surprise also to find that MyOpinions now ranks at Number 83 out of 83 survey groups listed. The only surprise is that it is still listed at all, which can only mean that there remain unsuspecting people still doing their surveys who have yet to try to collect their rewards.
