    HI all,
    I just tried to join Lightspeed but they told me that my address is not verifiable?? That is complete rubbish. Has it happened to anyone before?

    by Sioux, Oct 08 '08 I refuse to work on any of links sent. These always want to many personal details and want you to spend too much money or start trials. I consider it very unproffessional and far away from any company with a good reputation!

    by janet, Jun 26 '08 They send you surveys indicating a decent payout. TRICK is, they take a set amt. from your credit card acct.(which they do explain), to pay for the product or service to try but until you have pd. this and done the survey will they refund most times the money you've paid so no money is earned. What is so deceptive is the email they send that falsey states the award of money that is actually pd. out by you and then refunded if you answer the survey and sometimes continue with the service. Basically you're paying to try a product and that is the award! This is (not) a legitimate survey company. It is advertising for a fee. I have not pd. them any money so can not speak for their track record in reimbursing. READ THE FINE PRINT and don't pay them money for something you can try or buy for a lesser amt.. It's a ripoff

    by S, May 22 '08 They've taken money out of my account for no reason, it just disappeared. After numerous complaints to them, they have redeposited it, but I no longer get any surveys from them. My advice....STAY AWAY.

    by m, Apr 26 '08 I recently joined Vindale Research and am now questioning it. As part of the sign-up, they offer $ to do a trial survey in which you rate a website. They want you to review a credit check/score site and want you to fill in all of your personal info (as you would to check your report) and then rate the "site." Basically they are asking you to reveal your Social, mothers madien name, etc not to the credit report company, but to them...! Didn't do it of course, but I've been registered 24hours and I'm already worried about my privacy/security

    by Cyd, Dec 16 '07 I had this gang on my list of garbage survey companies that I unsubscribed from in the past. My notes have aged a bit, so I often give them a second chance. I started to with vindale, but refused to go beyond my computer's security warnings as I began the process. Besides, it looked pretty much the same: I call them garbage survey co.'s when they are really nothing but attempts to get you to buy stuff disguised as surveys, so I doubt I'm missing anything

    Yougov has taken me years to go through, but OnePoll seem to have surveys up every few days.

    I've been registered since aprilish and now at £32 with onepoll, its nice to do in the background while your watching tv etc.

    You couldn't depend on it, but its a nice thought to know your adding to your bank balance.
