Opinion World - have they gone bust or are they really undergoing system maintenance

I got over the threshold again and they've been undergoing system maintenance for over week now. Cashed out before a few times but their surveys with points have been fewer and most come with no incentive these days. That's ok, I just don't do them.

Seems a long time to be down if it really is system stuff. I am certainly not convinced.

I was wondering too. I've been waiting to claim for a couple of weeks now, did abit of market research on there and was over the threshold instantly, funnily enough as soon as I went to cash out I couldn't. I've emailed them, but no reply

Someone is still working there as only yesterday I got 1500 points from a follow up and I'd been chasing them for that for about 3 weeks. Came through with a code number so fine but I'd seen the maintenance sticker on around a week ago. It smacks of a problem for sure.

just to put your minds at rest - im actually in contact with them at the moment as one of my payments went astray....i never got a reply on their contact so i looked on their homepage and found their main contact email address and emailed them to help me out. I have been communicating via this email over the last few days and the person helping me is really helpful.

The main company is metrixlab who cover opinionbar/opinionworld and a few others...

the email is;

[EMAIL="e.de.klerk@metrixlab.com"]e.de.klerk@metrixlab.com[/EMAIL]

I hope this is ok posting the email...

I've checked my survey history, and it shows points are still accumulating from surveys I've done since the system went down. I remember at first there was a message saying it would be down until 12th March, which has been replaced by a general "system is down" message. This does seem an unusually long amount to time to sort out the problem.

I know it doesn't get a good review in the Moneysaving guide on this site, but I hope they're still in business because I've got by far the most money out of them compared to other sites.

We thank you for your patience during the course of this necessary maintenance work."
