I regularly take part in surveys and there are some great websites which really do give you great compensations. But GlobalTestMarket is just a waste of time.

They send me tons of invites saying there is a survey matching your profile. Once I am halfway through a boring survey hoping that I just need to answer a few more questions and I will get your points, I get a message that you have been screened out. 90% of the times I am screened out of a survey after having answered most of the questions which feels like a waste of time.

So I decided I will just redeem the points I have and close my account. They do not let you redeem points unless you have 1000 points in your cart even though there are many gift cards which are of much lower value. This is the first survey site where I saw this.

So I contacted the customer care saying I would like to close my account and before closing I would like to redeem the points I have accumulated for a gift card for the same points which is there in the website. I get a reply saying how to close the account nothing regarding the points. I emailed back still no reply.

So guys stay away from this site. Its a waste of time. They will take your details and your time but would in no way compensate you.

So I am relatively new to the crowdtap community. Its only been a week since I became a tapper, but I am already loving it.

If you are someone who likes to try out products before you buy them then this is a site which you should check out. You have to fill out a few questions about yourself and you are ready to start tapping. Crowdtap alerts you about new campaigns run by brands.

You need to answer small survey questions by brands which are known as Quickhits. You might also be asked to take part in a text or photo challenge which earns you extra points. You may even share them on your social media profiles (I always opt out of it)

It has only been a week since I joined and they are already sending me two different samples to try out and review. I am waiting for my order to arrive. I will update this review as soon as I get it.

I have also heard people receiving Gift Cards at the end of the month if they have accumulated certain number of points. I will also update in case I receive any gift cards.

So, I read great reviews about this site and signed up for it. I even made one of my friends sign up for it. I visited the site right on time when the Sample Day arrived. I could only see the past samples which were out of stock, My friend was facing the same problem as well. So I logged on to their Facebook page and I see tons of other users are having the same issue. Apparently none of the people who signed up to the site recently got an invite for the new samples.

If I don't get to try new samples how am I supposed to provide my feedback. Thanks Pinchme for wasting one hour of my life!

Edit- I also found out that a few users got to try the free samples one day ahead by paying 3.99$. If you want users to pay for samples then you shouldn't advertise yourself as FREE Samples.
