Do you do Valued Opinion Surveys?

[cat_mioux]

A friend got me onto them a month ago. At first I was receiving surveys every day and quickly accrued $19. You need $20 to request a gift voucher. Then I tried to update my profile and suddenly I was blocked from the site for 'fraudelent activity'. WT???

An email or two later, they re-instated me (still don't know what I'd done wrong) but ever since then I haven't qualified for one survey! It's been a couple of weeks.

I WANT TO EARN A $1 SO I CAN CLAIM MY GIFT CARD!

And yes I've emailed them 3 times. *sigh* They advise helpful things like clear your cookies.

Sounds like it might be a man made glitch Catty, the cheek of them!!

Yeah, sounds like a glitch.

I use to do them, didnt make much, so quit.

My daughter does competions and last year won a trip to Disneyland for her and she took her son..........they had a ball.

All she had to do was enter the last line in a jingle.

From same site she has won heaps of toys for her kids and I have lost count of Target $100 vouchers.

[purple_haize]

It is an online site she uses.

Sometimes I get some, other times nothing, but, yes, I did get lots when I first registered.

most surveys you get non qualified or survey closed

pretty much a waste of time

ive been sitting on $19- for a month and have not qualified for 1 survey in this time

my view is even worse done surveys and no added points for them for over 6 months

sitting on 1600 points need 2000 to cash out

opinionworld is good its got paypal and amazon but you dont get alot of surveys

but each 250 points is worth $5- and you can cash out when you get just over the $5-

i usually take paypal on that one and woolworths giftcards on the other 2 sites

Complete and total waste of time IMO.  Rewards are so miniscule for the time you put in it's a joke.  I used to be a subscriber to all of those survey sites.  Global Test Market, Your View, Valued Opinions etc.  I Unsubscribed to the lot of them.  Sick of them spamming up my email account with surveys I never qualified for or sitting there for an hour filling out surveys for a whole 3 or 5 dollars. So not worth it.

I do these ones, but don't like them much. When you qualify for points, it can take weeks before they are added to your total ( I am sitting on $15 but have done a $5 survey recently so can't request the gift card until they add that on) Then when you do get $20 it can take awhile before the gift card is sent out.

yourvoice is much better imo. None of them are money spinners though. Your voice sometimes have long surveys (can be done over a few days) that are worth up to $60  of points.

I knew I was never going to get rich by doing online surveys but my friend receives Coles gift vouchers on a regular basis so I thought why not?. What I find frustrating is I'll get a third of the way through a survey then find I 'don't qualify'. Another time I was paid (pending) $5 for a survey but ended up paid only $3.

Once I receive my gift voucher, if I still don't qualify for any surveys for a month, I'll unsubscribe

[cherry*135]

Yes, the surveys seem to be getting worse at waiting till you are 1/3 of the way through before saying you don't qualify.

It used to be at the start  after you put in your location, age, sex that you got cut out, now they get you to answer quite a lot before cutting you out.

I am sure I got stuck on $19 for awhile too. I wonder if it is rigged so they can control how many gift cards are sent out each month or something?

It depends on demographics as well, a young person with a high salary, a family with small kids and teenagers etc, probably get more surveys?
