Is it still worthwhile to do surveys for Globaltestmarket?

Hi,


I used to do some surveys from Globaltestmarket, they gave 50 points for each survey usually, haven't done any in a long long time still get the emails though.


Just noticed that they mainly offer 30 points now and reducing to 22 points and even 10.


Is it worthwhile do surveys for so few points such as 22 when you have to have 1000 points to cashout?


Thanks for any answers

    I've opted against it.

    It depends on yourself though. If you've plenty of time and enjoy doing surveys with them knowing that you'll gain a little then it's fine.

    I stick to Pinecone, Panelbase etc now

    I'm not bothered usually anymore but it is more about their redemption threshold and horrible customer service.

  • I stuck with them for many years, but recently things have gone from bad to worse - completed surveys only to be told right at end, "you have already completed...", when I have not. Also, getting well over half-way through and being kicked off and lack of replies from CS, together with the reduction of award points, gave me the push to give them the 'heave-ho'.
