I am really mad and sad at the same time. I was a panel member of both Global Test Market and My Survey for many years. Never any problems. Once they merged with Lifepoints, my nightmare began. What now has worked up to 8 months, my problems have not be handled. Although I was advised a couple of times my problems would be "escalated ". Today I still have nothing. Also there's surveys available on my dashboard. And K know for a fact that are sending surveys to other members. I would like to know what's the problem with mine?
The surveys are usually quick to complete so it's not going to eat up a big chunk of your day. The points add up for good rewards, here and there marketing companies will pay cash but that's not often.
When you do month long surveys, such as "My Purchase Diary", for a supposed 1000 points, and when you go to submit and mysteriously get an error message or other reasons you are not awarded your points, what does that tell you? My Survey is getting paid for its members to complete these surveys. When they can avoid awarding points, they keep the money. I completed two of these month long surveys recently, and in both cases, no points, and ridiculous excuses from them. Not any more.
I have been using Life Points for a while now with no problems. All of a sudden things have changed. When I click on an available survey nothing happens. I tried to get some help from them to see what is going on but was totally ignored. This site appears to be pretty sketchy now.

I'm completely fed up with this site. A number of times I have finished surveys and not received my points, despite complaining. The last straw was when I sat for almost an hour to try and get 500 points which have not been added to my total. I also hardly ever qualify for their surveys any more. The latest thing is to get as much information up front and then they tell you haven't qualified.
They used to be good. Now the surveys constantly freeze mostly when you are 90 percent done and when you tell them their response is that is normal and then they don't credit you the points. I have stopped doing any surveys over 10 minutes as rather constantly rip me off. I am just trying to get to the next reward and then will be closing my account. Don't waste your time with this joke of a company. There are better sites out there.

Like so many, I've been with MySurvey for a very long time and without warning or explanation, my account was also inactivated. And like so many, I would do surveys and log in regularly.
What really upsets me, not only was I an active member, I was in the middle of a product testing for them! Finally, the company who hired MySurvey for this test emailed me and asked me where I was!
I'm so disgusted MySurvey put me in that position. How they can sleep at night treating their loyal members like this is beyond me. And as many others, I've emailed them several times with no answer.
I've spent hours answering surveys and finally cashed in a bunch of points for an Amazon gift card worth $25. Each survey, IF you qualify, is worth pennies. And I do mean pennies, as in less than a nickle.
Some of the surveys are quite involved. Many ask a series of questions and then notify you that the survey is closed or that you don't fit their parameters. You are awarded sweepstake entries in recompense, not points.
If you have nothing else to do with your day, by all means, go ahead and participate.

I keep getting emails that I've qualified for Survey after survey, but when I click on all my waiting surveys, they NEVER load. I'm stuck at the "Waiting for mysurvey.com to load" screen. I've kept it up for hours and the surveys never load. Seeing all the other reviews, I am convinced it's a huge scam. I agree with previous posters; why do some many news sites and blogs continue to promote this company?
I spent five minutes answering questions about pharmaceutical companies after I had been screened and accepted. At about five minutes in, I then received a message that the survey was not for me. It is proof that their goal is to only seek answers that will be positive for their clients, and thus the surveys are bogus.
Hi John,
We are sorry you've been screened out of some surveys while in due course.
Some surveys require only a limited number of responses per category, for example, from a region or age group. Sometimes the number of participants needed for a certain survey is reached very quickly and we are forced to close the survey as soon the quota is reached.

Answer: I don't think anyone has the answer for that one. There are a lot of us in the same boat. You can email 'Emma' but I wouldn't hold your breath for a reply. Just advise anyone thinking of joining My Survey not to bother.
Answer: It might pay for a little while, then judging by the reviews on here including my own, they deactivate your account giving no reason and if you've got money you haven't claimed you won't get it. If you pester 'Emma', eventually she sends emails telling you they deactivated your account because your account was used in another country or internet cafe. It would seem this happens a lot. I would say if you're going to try it, don't let any points build up before you cash out because you're likely to be disappointed.
Answer: I never felt this as a scam since I have already recieved my gift cards in a short span of time.
Answer: Typically it may take upto 5 days for the PayPal to transfer the amount to your account. One thing you have to note that the e-mail for the LifePoints account and PayPal account should be the same, which I faced due to which some delay happened to me.
