Nothing As Yet...

May 6, 2018 by Mark from United Kingdom

Been a member for about a month. The desktop version... I just get a blue screen...mobile app seems to be working. Reached out to them on Facebook...nothing. No surveys as yet. Will update if I get any joy.

EDIT: Still nothing...

One of the best

April 28, 2018 by Mick from United Kingdom

A well designed, well run site that has a friendly feel to it. Survey invitations are sent frequently. Throw out rate is low. Their surveys are interesting, well written and well rewarded. Payment process is easy and quick. Would recommend.

Good enough but Not for all surveys

January 27, 2018 by Leo from United Kingdom

In previous review, I expressed problems I had with their 3 strike rule (which anyway is a silly rule in my opinion).
However, I have a clear 3 stars, and I slowly restarted to complete their surveys, BUT only those that seem easy to follow, without questions that can lead to misunderstanding, otherwise I just close the survey. At times, I find not a great logic in their questions, or not a clear cut when the subject changed. ...

Surveys have nice layout, are paid good average, their BACS payments are in time, I like the introduction of some paid polls.

There are also many less or not at all layout errors now compared to time ago. Customer service is about the same, if they want to be nice they are, otherwise they just ignore you.

They offer more surveys/polls than other companies although qualifying is a different matter.

Great site

April 21, 2017 by louise from United Kingdom

I love surveybods. Their surveys are always well thought out and easy to complete. Their screenout process is quick so you don't waste much time and surveys are fairly regular. Payment is via BACs or Amazon and is always received quickly. Highly recommend them.

Pulling it back a little (2017 Update)

April 5, 2017 by Nick from United Kingdom

The other year, when this site was actively pushing for the Survey Police top ranking, this outfit were genuinely good, however since topping the charts, both the quality and quantity of surveys have tailed off.

What prompted me to write this review was the latest survey I just endured.

Firstly, it was way over the stated time, in other words, I was being underpaid for it, essentially ripped off, secondly, after plowing through what was around double the promised length, I was screened out.

Basically, they are now no better than MySurvey, ValuedOpinions, Toluna etc. They are just cheap data churners like the rest. And that's the last time I take any care or time in completing one of their surveys.

The majority of the reviews here are based on past glories, and have no relevance now. They are now just another rubbish survey collator like the rest.

February 2017 update, things have improved somewhat since the low period they hit at the time of my initial review. Surveys now appear to be better targeted and I haven't had any particularly obnoxious long screenouts for a while.

They do still have an issue where the survey page refuses to load, refreshing the page usually allows you to continue, however some not, forcing you to abandon the survey (which appears to be an issue on their end as this happens in any browser - Mac or PC or mobile). To their credit, they have responded to my issues and given me a few points for the trouble,

Their mobile app still insists on using you location data until you force the app off or run out of battery, it's impossible for them not to be aware of this as it's well documented in the app store reviews.

On balance, I'll cautiously up their rating, with a hope that they return to their former top ten winning performance.
