they either give surveys you never qualify for so you end up wasting much time and earn nothing and now they have taken away the few points they use to give for disqualification which basically leaves no desire to do surveys for them. it's a toss up and your taking a chance whether you will be awarded after completing a survey. I've wasted up to an hour doing and completing a survey and not been rewarded. Don't waste your time!

Doing a variety of things I have obtained a lot of gift cards from this site. It is not a traditional survey site, it does not pay much for surveys, but does give points for failing. Reading mail messages, watching videos etc the points build up and I get a $10 gift certificate every 2 or 3 months.

I should not be surprised that I got stung by MyPoints. I am also not surprised that others have gone through the same nonsense as me; asking personal questions (Passcode, in my case) to log in. I tried to contact them and got no response. I sent in numerous tickets. Trying to reach them by phone is beyond frustrating and borders on ridiculousness. After a number of years with them, I have not been able to log in at all.. The most annoying thing is that they still have $15 worth of points I redeemed; money that I have fairly worked for. They have often not paid me for more than one survey completion and I didn't even anymore trying to get those points. If you enjoy working for free, you will love this company.

Of all survey groups, I was with MyPoints the longest, since 1996, almost at their inception. Over the years, many click-through purchases were not credited, and it was a lot of work to keep up. Over the last year, it was increasingly frustrating to be not credited for even simple grocery purchases through receipts: for example, there would be only two qualifying items on a receipt, and their system would credit only one or neither. I fought for over 8 months about restoring my account, which I accidentally deleted, even though I clicked through while logged in on my spouse's account. I also fought with them (still unresolved) about the inability to purchase gift cards, without warning or explanation. But now, they have deactivated my account entirely, without warning or explanation. I was highly critical of their receipt-reading flaws, but really, if that's why they got rid of me, do I really need them anyway? As an ironic twist, after I fought with them for a large number of points that I had earned, they allowed me to re-build up my points to a $100 gift card, including a 3-day survey for which I qualified, before completely deactivating my account. What a complete slap in the face and waste of my years of survey taking.
