PINCHme

This website used to be ok up until a year or 2 ago. Would get some free samples. Now it's been 4 months since they said I would get my sample box, and still haven't got it. They also changed the points to earn 5 points a survey and needing 600 points to get free samples. Very disappointing 😞

I've used pinchME for a while and in the beginning it was great. But recently all samples I've ordered I never received. I had 5 orders since December 2022 and it's now March 2023 and I haven't received any of them. I reached out and they told me it was probably a supply issue. But my question is why offer the samples if you don't have them?!

I have signed up months ago and never received any samples. It just seems to be a waste of my time going on there website everyday to apply. I even get notifications in my email that I'm getting them shipped but again it's been months later and nothing. I even tried to contact them and nothing. I guess now I have to try the Tuesday thing if I can remember.

They claim to provide samples and gift cards for reviews and offers, but I've received minimal samples without gift cards and since providing my information to them with their so called offers, I have received hundreds of spam calls, text messages, and emails daily. It starts the moment I wake up and goes on until I settle down for the evening.

If the page times out come back the next day. We will save your bonus item. Out of 30 or more tries I've only gotten 3 bonus items.
I've emailed them several times for them to send me my bonus items but they never write back. Wonder if they even receive some of these so called "bonus items". I bet they don't. I bet they just get paid to advertise them. Or maybe theses companies don't realize that PINCHME isn't mailing them out to us after we complete these surveys. Who knows what's going on. I done with PINCHME. It's a big headache and a waste of time.
So I downloaded the FREE STUFF app onto my phone and I love this app.

2 stars for first few samples that i received but not anymore. To claim your sample they make you sign up on different sites and even than you cannot claim your samples. Waste of time. Tried emailing them about the issues and got auto response. No one ever responded back. Don't waste your time.

I've gotten boxes in the past. The newer side just isn't for me. I went to get my box for today, and it said my box timed out! I waited all day just to catch it and GOT NOTHING. Also, the quiz me part says that none of my surveys can be used.
Waste of time and effort for me

At first i was getting samples by taking surveys and racking up my coins. Well, now that pinchme.com has disabled my ability to take surveys for points, i am now only able to sign up for offers that REQUIRE ME TO ENTER MY CREDIT CARD. Um ya, no thanks. Let me take surveys for coins because i dont have money to sign up for all these OFFERS THAT ARE NOT FREE

I signed up in 2013 and every Tuesday I was eligible for samples. I would get frequent emails from them reminding me to check the new samples I would be so excited because I always qualified for something. I received my products within the month I had ordered them and for the most part I got what I had asked for, but after a while I stopped being eligible to order more samples even though it says I qualify for them as others have also stated. I wouldn't call it a scam as you still received some samples, but it's not fair that you have to write a glorified review to continue receiving them. It also seems like their requirements for a good review have gotten stricter. I missed one feedback survey and my review rating is now in the poor range. I haven't received a sample since October 2016 so I've given up on the site.

I was getting samples and then I got to one where it was a speciality sample for some makeup brushes. I went down and did the home chef offer to receive the brushes but it never let get the brushes. I wrote them in an email and they said they will investigate it and it's been almost 2 weeks. I gave up on it and feel like they're scammers

I don't know what happened. This used to be a first come first serve sight to test smalls samples and provide feedback for companies that gave out the samples. Mutually beneficial. Now, it's take surveys that constantly reject you. They come of as scammers now, but occasionally you get selected for great samples. I check my email to see if I qualify every month, but any further effort is a waste time. I can easily go other places to get paid to take surveys that work. Couponing is more fruitful in getting cheap or free stuff than PinchMe. Sad, a short era of sampling has ended.

Pinchme used to be a great sample sight until it became popular. If you have been with them for a long time you will not get samples. The few (if any) that appear for you to take will be "sold out" the second they become available. It is a waste of time and their claim that samples are now easier than ever to get is false. I'm only giving it two stars because it used to be so good.

Oh my goodness Id like to pinch them. This site needs help. I qualify for samples all the time but have only recived a few. Id like to choke them, they make you jump through hoops to get samples. Plus it takes forever to get it. Sits at Post Office too way too long. Hey Pinchme.com, customers are complaing. I give you and F on your site. I log in and get nothing is not right. I log in on time and cant get the samples. Why? You are a bunch of noodle heads sitting around doing nothing.! Oh If i could help you I would. Your site stinks.! Do your customers right.!

It requires you to do to much to get points and it'll have you answer 5+ questions before telling you the survey isn't for you. I currently have 5 boxes I've order since last month and I think only one has said it's been put out for delivery so I guess you can say scam!

I won a Super Deluxe box yesterday for completing 200 (3,000 tokens) surveys. Instead of getting a box worth of $50, I received a box full of samples (not worth any Retail value because they are sample sizes) and 3-4 full sized items. If I stretched the dollar amount, it MIGHT have been worth maybe $20. Disappointed. I would rather complete surveys on other sites and actually get gift cards/cash. Not worth your time. And, it almost seems as though the top Quizme people are computers. Nobody can get 1,000 tokens in an hour. C'mon.

They changed this site for the worst and now you have to do surveys in order to get samples. Sounds easy? Think again. They make it so complicated that you can't even complete one surgery. The time you take doing these surveys would take you all day or weeks in order to reach the amount they want you to get in order to get a pinch me box. You literally have to have all the time in the world, if you do this site is for you! But I don't have time for it, it's not worth it anymore.

I have ordered pinchme sample boxes. It is March 1,2023. I am still waiting for sample boxes I ordered in November of 2022! There is no feedback to fill out, so I assume the sample boxes were not sent out.
I wonder if others are dealing with the same thing...

A couple of yrs ago this was a much better program than the one they have today. They had samples once a month to sign up for, and was easy to request and get the samples. Then it got to be, IF you get a email telling you it was time for the samples, And that was IF you could actually log on withing 20 seconds of the samples (Yes that fast) And you had to get a email telling you to get your samples, before they sent everyone a email telling them sample day was coming and on sample day you went and picked 3 of the choices they had to choose from. Then in about a weeks or 2's time your PinchMe box came like clockwork. Well fast foward about a year to now... Now you have to wait and see if you even get what I call a invite to sign up for sales ads galore and maybe MAYBE you might actually get on the site in that 20 second window and claim your samples. Sometimes they are decent but lately, it is just not worth the trouble of waiting on the email, doing the survey for hte last samples you received and then you still may not get the "real samples" but your more or less signing up for a guarantee of tons of spam and robo calls for stupid garbage like magazine Subs, btw magazines they cant even give away, they keep mailing them to me and they go right in the garbage... Basically the "samples" are not samples it is junk and just nothing but junk and a nuisance is the only thing your guaranteed. And now the latest stupid this website is doing... I have yet to bother with it but from reading the other post other people have and basically they are telling the reasons why I have not bothered with doing the latest stupid nonsense they are doing. Doing surveys for points... apparently you can spend hours on top of hours dong nothing but surveys and for nothing it sounds like. Yeah i am NOT going to waste my time to bother with that stupidity. There are a couple on here that seem to want to make claim this is a great website and sample company... THEY USED TO BE... Some people feel the need to always say good thing about any and everyone, I am sure they can find good things to say about Hitler and Manson if asked in public on a review site... smh rme... you guys know the type,,,,,,, lol But if this was 2 yrs ago, i would say this is a great website and worth the effort. Actually the effort put in when it was a good site was a lot less effort and bigger and better rewards from little time spent,,,, Now they want you to spend hours upon hours upon hours doing stupid surveys and for nothing... I think they get paid from companies for each survey people complete and they do NOT want to reward the people doing the actual work, its about them lining their pockets only... I have cancelled my acct with this company and have sent all their emails to my spam folder... good riddance...

In the beginning I was happy with this site. Nowadays I dont qualify for anything and I know I fit the profile. Other times I am qualified for samples I dont want or need. They have a certain way they want you to review the product. It is very hard to leave a good review. I would not bother with this website and Im about to just write them off.

Complete seven surveys and try everyday for five days and receive a Pinchme box with $10 worth of samples as a reward. Don't waste your time on Quizme to win a Pinchme box. I won two. Between the two of them there might have been $4 worth of samples. I expected $10 worth of samples in my Pinchme box sent as a reward for my effort in Quizme and got scammed. I closed my account with Pinchme.

You have to make sure you are able to log on Tuesdays at 12 noon on their sample days. When you do the website is overloaded and crashes. Every Time! By the time you get through the samples are gone or you find out you did not get any this time. I have always been "in good standing" and filled out my reviews in time and with care. A few years ago they were great - then, I guess, they grew in members, but never caught up with the capability of their website.

I received samples one time... now, I wait a month for the next samples to be added to their site & even set an alarm so I'm waiting & watching the timer until samples are added & they add 2 dinky samples? There are other nice samples on site but they are out of stock?!?! Whatever!

I first heard about it and got excited, you have to create a member profile and answer a bunch of questions, I was only eligible for ONE sample and it took a month to ship and is still not here. Today is sample day and they sent me a email saying I won't be eligible for any of the sample but I can sign up to receive a magazine subscription, WHAT?!. They send good samples to people on YouTube so they can review and make people come to the site and sign up but they don't offer any of the things they say! Such BS!
