Bizrate

This site is totally ridiculous don't wast your time. They will entice you with a few min survey worth say 250 points and ask you about 10 mins. Worth of questions which is most likley the survey. Then one they get the info they were most likely looking for they tell you the surveys quota has been met and give you 50 points for your trouble. Then good luck trying to redeem your point. If you finley take the time to run through the gauntlet of advertisements and who knows what you find out you need at least 5000 point to collect a $5.00 discount on products that you can buy for $5.00 bucks or junk no one would take for free. DON'T WAST YOUR TIME!

Oh and to top it off, I received an email message Error! That my unsubscribe failed to go through! Are you kidding me!

Bizrate as an extension of Jo Malone purchase on their site:. Promise of $100 in "free" merchandise or some such. You give them all of your personal information just short of SSN and at the end you are offered "free" magazines but not so free with a "$2.00 processing fee"! This is a scam at it's finest! You are left wishing you could go back and erase the whole thing. Also, the magazine subscriptions are set up to auto-renew so down the line you will be forced to cancel them or renew at an exorbitant rate. Shame on Jo Malone! A luxury brand associated with a used car dealership mentality company.

Tried to correct delivery address with company as I had it wrong. They referred me to fedex with tracking number who would not change it. It had to come from shipping company. Called back to company and the guy told me his guy had been on hold for over half hour doing what I should have done, quit calling as I was tying up his lines, would not listen to me, yelled at me on phone then hung up on me. I would NEVER BUY anything from this company again and that employee needs anger management classes and how to deal with public. Horrible public relations and a rude person. Have lots of friends working on their vehicles and people who repair cars for a living and told them not to buy from this company...

Have pay my money y for useless "reward"magazines. Every time offers me $100 reward for purchase survey. After wasting time I get rewarded with chance to give my CC and pay for some useless magazines or "just" shipping. Pretty sure I would get signed up for that crap automatically and after some time would get charges & be a big hassle even to cancel. It's scam for sure

After you buy something from some sites bizrate offers you to take a survey for a free gift $100 value. After the survey they offer you to pick a year worth of subscription for up to 4 magazines, on a next screen they tell you that they actually will charge you $2 per each magazine and ask for your credit card info.

Made a similar mistake as many others on this message board. Made the mistake of giving away information for the '$100' for my online store experience. I think I even thought it was for the store I had made a purchase at. They directed me to another site where I was to pay for $2 per prescription for up to 4 magazines. Was a narrow selection, not to mention the seemingly independent website which I was to Pay for my Free $100 gift. I thought this was ridiculous so I exited the website. After making another purchase a few days later, I was offered a free $25 gift for a review of my purchase. I don't think they need any more of my personal information. This appears to be a scam, and it worries me that its being linked to online vendors. I've read some reviews from others who did the Nigerian prince/air crash/relative-like thing and they did get there magazines (for the $2 each) but could not cancel.

I recently purchased a Gaggia Titanium coffee machine and it did not work. I had not even had the machine for 24 hours, it costs $700 and when I called to say I wanted to return it the service rep told me that I should've read the fine print. I have to pay for the original shipping costs and new original packaging (which has to be ordered from them) and then pay for return shipping. All this for a machine that won't work with any oily beans, which they never stated in their video about the ease of use of this machine. So if you like Starbucks beans just know it won't work with this machine. We have done business three times with this company wholelattelove over the past 10 years only to be treated like our business doesn't matter and that they make a habit of stonewalling people who are unhappy with their purchase. This company does not stand behind their products and are rude on many levels. I will never do business with them again.

Is not a scam! Although it would be helpful if the site told clients upfront that the 'free' reward cost $2.00 shipping/handling. There is a wide variety of magazines to choose from and you do not have to pick 4. Pick 1, 2, 3 or 4. When the time comes to renew at the magazine site you will get a card in the mail well in advance of keeping-canceling the subscription and Nobody bothers you about it one way or the other. Like one reviewer says " it is old fashion customer service" Easy peesy. I have gotten this award a few times over the years and nothing about that has changed. In our world of uncertainty it is good to know somethings are still 'normal' Think about how much a subscription for Readers Digest or Time magazine charges. And you only pay the $2 S&H. It is the best reward out there.

Just started Bizrate and took my first survey and got my 200 points and the magazine subscriptions. I said oh for $2.00 I got 4 magazines. My charge card was charged. Right now waiting to receive first magazine in the mail. But on next survey I was 10 minutes into it and glitch happened and computer froze. Lost my survey and could take it again. So 30 minutes of my life was lost. Got another survey and about 30 minutes into taking survey again a glitch. Same result. Now i am concerned about additional charges on my credit card for the magazines
