Not worth the time

September 17, 2010 by Cheri from United States

Minutes after I get an email I'm told that they've already reached their quota. Rarely do I qualify for their surveys so to me it's a major waste of my time.

Survey Spot PAYS FAST

It is my favorite survey panel! Although a lot of surveys are for sweepstakes entries only, I have also received numerous paid surveys, product trials and paid focus groups. I have tried MANY products and have made nearly $200 in incentives in the last year and a half. Not bad for survey taking!

They pay instantly via PayPal and I have never been denied when I claim my rewards. Minimum claim is $10, which is reasonable. You may get a lot of unpaid sweepstakes surveys, but stick with it and it will pay off in the long run.

Other survey panels take forever to make a claim, but Survey Spot is very timely. My experience: If I had to be on just ONE panel, this would be it. Highly recommended.

Good so far!

Member for 2 weeks and have already cashed out $20! I'm not making $40/hour doing this, but I have plenty of time where I may as well be taking a survey, and some are very fun. However:

1. The better-"paying" surveys (300-500 points) fill up quickly! If I am not able to start the survey within the first few hours, it is not always available afterward.

2. I am not screened out of some surveys, and I should be. However, I can tell you that other websites I have joined are a LOT worse about this. I don't get too many of these from SurveySpot.

3. Occasional technical problems. Eventually, you get really excited about the 300-point surveys because it's the equivalent of $3. However, I have tried to go back to the "2nd day" of the survey and gotten errors a few times.

Overall, I don't find it a waste of my time. Erroring out or being kicked out of a survey for not qualifying or because they've already met a quota is disappointing, but not really irritating.

Not sure how to rate this

September 17, 2010 by Laura from United States

I've only been a member of Survey Spot for a couple weeks so I'm not sure if this is a fair review - but, I receive several surveys from them every day. After going thru the first 3 or 4 pages about zip code, age, gender, etc., the basic stuff, I'm told I don't qualify. So even tho I receive several surveys from them, I honestly don't think I've been able to complete even one survey yet. Whassssup?!?!? Since I'm registered at their site, surely they know my age and gender before they send me the survey. Don't they? I'm ready to unsubscribe so they'll quit filling up my inbox with surveys I can't take.

Yes

I joined about 3 weeks around the 4th of July and I made about 12.50c from them. They do give you alot of sweeptake entries which I don't like I have qualified for more than half the surveys they send me. Most are .50c to 1.00.
