Are Paid Surveys a Scam – Free Paid Survey Reviews

I had just been looking over many paid survey websites that wanted you to pay to sign up so when I found Greenfield Online I was really excited that I didn’t have to pay for anything. Their website is easy to navigate and I could take surveys pretty easily. Some paid surveys they offer require you to use internet explorer and I usually use firefox so I was unable to take some surveys.

A lot of the surveys they had were for sweepstakes entries but I didn’t want to do them so I just skipped them. They frequently had paid surveys emailed to me that paid cash, but they had an equal amount that were just for sweepstakes entries. They were usually pretty accurate guessing the amount of time that the paid survey they sent me would take.

Overall I would say that I had a positive experience with Greenfield Online

I still do not know how to log in to view my account for Ipsos Survey Panel. I have been emailing with the people who run their rewards system. They seem to be trying to get my password but I don’t think it should be this hard. I haven’t taken any of their surveys since I am not sure if I am getting credit for the ones I have already taken.

I had heard good things about this survey panel, but this confusion is lessening the quality of my experience with Ipsos Survey Panel

For about the past week I have not gotten a cash paid survey from Greenfield Online I have been neglecting to take some of the sweepstakes entries surveys since I think my time is better spent taking only paid surveys that are paid in cash/points than sweepstakes entries. If I have absolutely nothing to do I may take one here or there but other than that I’m just going to wait for the cash paid surveys.

Greenfield Online started out so well. I made $11 on my first day with them and got paid a little over 3 weeks later.

Today I got an email from Global Test Market inviting me to take a paid survey. The paid survey said It would pay between 5-50 points. I answered the first 3 questions and was informed that I did not qualify, but they still gave me 5 points for my time. At the conversion ratio from points to cash I got 0.25 for answering the three questions that took 30 seconds.
