Rewarded opinions?

Options
Hello

Is anyone else having time out issues with Rewarded Opinions today? I've had 2 surveys today and they've both timed out about half way through.

Just wondering if it's me or if everyone else is finding the same!

Thanks

Louisa

  • Happens kinda often to me :(
    :eek: 2014: £20 voucher from SurveyFriends, £10 cash payout from Panel Opinion too and working towards more from Valued Opinions currently.
    2013: £35 and £50 vouchers from SurveyFriends! More than £15 made from other paid surveys sites (Yougov, Panel Opinion, Valued Opinions, Pinecone, etc.) Happy so far!

    Same here and emailed them lots of time. they don't even have the curtesy to reply. Going to unsubscribe along with a lot of people who are really fed up of this now.Looks like they are not even trying to solve the problem:(
  • Thanks everyone. Very frustrating, but glad that it's them and not me! Will not waste time with this one anymore. Tsch!

    It's been happening to me too many times just lately too, so I've saved the email invitations for the ones I've been chucked off. Looking back at them I see every one is for a survey about food and worth 50 points. The invitations say they take 8 - 15 minutes but they're very long winded and I've spent as long as 25 minutes on them only to be told the quota is full. I've complained to them three times now but never get a reply so in future will ignore all their invitations to surveys about food. Giving them pages and pages of answers for nothing really bugs me :mad:

    I agree that those food ones (which feel like they're being run for a third party, rathert han RO directly) are ridiculous, going on for ever.

    I'm still getting other surveys from RO, though, which are working fine and a reasonable length.

    Has anyone had a Paypal payment from Rewarded-Opinions, & if so do you get charged fees to receive it (or do they use Mass Pay) ?

    They're useless at replying to queries, so thought I'd see if anyone here knew the answer. :think:

    I got a paypal payment through this week - took about two weeks to arrive. I requested £50 and got the full £50.

    Thanks for the info!

    Evidently they're doing payments quicker than they're replying to emails :rotfl:
  • I know 8 other Rewarded Opinion panellists and none of us have received a payment this year.They must owe thousands of pounds.
    Incidentally Rewarded Opinions are owned by The ID Factor who are owned by Progressive Digital Media who are an AIM listed company.By all accounts they are in serious financial trouble.

    So be warned.Rewarded Opinions are still sending out surveys but have absolutely no intention of paying you.This of course is fraud but it doesn't seem to bother them.

    I've stopped taking their surveys and so has everybody else I know.
    I seriously doubt you will be paid.
