Well I guess I might judged to soon, I did just join, I have to give prizeRebel a chance after all one thing I must say I got paid 2 times no problems at ALL!, all survey sites are going to have problems with surveys, I've learned THAT the long way. Takes time, i'm' still settling in,

Date of experience: February 17, 2018

This site is very bad for you spending a lot of your time doing surveys then NOT getting paid for your work, always take screenshots of the survey before you start it and at the finish of it ALWAYS! They cannot be trusted at all, I found out the hard way

I went on to try the website I get a ban message from half the surveys saying I am using proxy when my phone has no proxy it is a phone also once I did 5 of my surveys I completed the 5th one and got no points for it so I logged out then tried logging in and said my password was wrong I had them send me a password reset email three times and never got one then asked for help and they said my account does not exist then I tried again got the email reset the password and used the password I put and still didn't log me in, this website is a scam do not use it is a waste of time and has so many issues and also when I try watching videos it gives an error I would give -100 stars it is worse than swagbucks at least swagbucks doesn't have these problems but they barely give points(updated for detailed ratings)

Run! Don't walk away!

A total waste of minutes and hours of your life that you will never be able to recover. There are many sites that actually pay you. I've been doing this for over 10 years and this site is the worst!

Prize Rebel is THE MOST FRUSTRATING survey site ever! First off, the 'Daily Surveys' and 'My Surveys' have NEVER worked for me. They always go to a blank page or error page. I wrote to Customer service and got a generic 'sorry, it's beyond our control' -type response. Secondly, there are NO points for disqualification. It's bad enough spending 10-15 minutes on a survey to be disqualified, but these tightwads can' t even throw you a point for trying (even Swagbucks or Survey Junkie will do that!). Finally, even if you do manage to actually complete a survey (as I have accomplished over the past month of trying), you may end up on an 'error page' and not get credited. That happens about 3 out of ten times. Attempts to be credited, EVEN with a screenshot and URL of completed survey have NOT been resolved by customer service. Very, very dissapointed with Prize Rebel.

PrizeRebel is pretty straight forward. Complete survey and offerwall, earn points, cash out for rewards. Theres no much else to say about it. I've been a member of PrizeRebel for 2 years now and cashed out plenty of rewards especially amazon gift card.

Personally, I understand some user frustration, especially when encountering a disqualification or technical error, but from my experience and understanding, its not on PrizeRebel end but on the $#*!ty survey partners end. Some of these market researcher cant figure out how to program a survey to save their life. Of these types of surveys, I'd say maybe I'll encounter 1 every 50 surveys.

The support team at PrizeRebel have been quite helpful as well especially in investigating into these researchers. Mark and Dan are polite and very attentive to the issue, just make sure to provide as much info and screenshots as possible to make their investigation quicker.

Overall, PrizeRebel has been a wonderful site to make some fun money, especially during covid when I've used it more to get PayPal redemptions.

Quick and easy rewards
March 15, 2023

PrizeRebel is my go-to site. Tried all other "earning" sites, you name it, I've tried it with no luck. I'm not the type to want to download apps, sign up for offers, or install tracking software on my phone. I'm a simple person, do a survey, get paid.

So here's the good parts of PrizeRebel in my experience:
Theres a variety of survey partners that are clearly listed. You get a list of partners, each with their own survey inventory. Being able to do surveys from partners I like has made survey taking sooo much easier. Other sites just bunch them together. Bunching them might work for some but if a survey partner is bad, theres just no way to avoid them.

Another thing are those monthly promos. It seems that each month, PrizeRebel has a survey promo that gives you more points than normal! More points!

Reward claim is meh at the start. 24 hours to process my reward. Although it does get faster when I got to gold tier. 10 minutes, Not too bad.

Their support team pretty solid as well. Quickish replies, attentive to the issue. Not much for me to say or complain about.

Now the worst part:

The worst part honestly is encountering issues with surveys. Yes, technical issue occurs, but why is it on me. I get it, its not PrizeRebel hosting the survey, but man does it make me mad. I appreciate the courtesy credit their support team provide when I write in, but still frustrating. The survey industry needs to get their act together. No one wants to encounter issue or be disqualified.

Overall, PrizeRebel the easiest survey site that I've used. Survey seems to not run out with pretty decent payouts. Solid support team. Quick rewards.

Thank you for the full review Annie, I've shared both the positives and the negatives that you've mentioned with the rest of our team. I am sorry to hear about disqualifications and technical issues and the responsibility falls on us and our survey partners to do better. I hope we can be your #1 survey site for many years to come.

I've been on this site for maybe about a month now and received $100 dollars in PayPal so far. They have a great mix of surveys and videos I can do. And they pay in 24 hours! Pretty good I say.

Sorry but it is a scam site
February 22, 2023

After many frustrating hours of surveys getting to 90-99% complete and THEN being rejected i managed to accrue enough points for a £5 amazon gift card. Made my claim. Decided to do no more as i was getting pretty annoyed at the rejections which generally happened when they were asking my ethnicity, my locale or gender, again. They already asked at the start so if i don't fit requirements end it at the start.

Anyhoo. 24 hours later i get this;

I mean seriously what sort of ID verification is it if i blank out ALL the references on it and my picture hahaahaha.

Wish i had checked reviews more closely as there are so so many the same as mine when you look down the page.

Ah well lesson learnt and hope this helps someone out

MISLEADING
July 8, 2017

I am on Silver Level. I was told AFTER my FIRST PayPal that my processing time would be 2-3 hours. Well its taken 24 hours STILL. This is misleading. They DO have ALOT of surveys BUT its very hard to qualify for the HIGH paying ones. They will also take you through all the questions of a survey THEN disqualify you AFTER getting the information they were seeking in the first place. This is what a lot of other sites do. This was very discouraging being that this is SUPPOSE TO BE A "BETTER" site than the others...

Dishonest
June 25, 2017

It's been my experience that *some* surveys actually get you a reward. Other times they will take you through a long list of "qualifying" questions, in which you are actually answering survey questions... After a very long list (usually over 100 questions, that often each take a few seconds to load) they disqualify you, and then jump you to another survey, with the pretense of trying to find a "good survey" for you. In the meantime, keep in mind that you ARE ACTUALLY ANSWERING SURVEY QUESTIONS. Now, prizerebel and all of the survey gathering companies Samplelicous, peanut labs etc. Will pretend that since you did not complete the survey all the way through, the questions that you DID answer are of no value to them! Baloney! This is their way of getting you to feed their statistics gathering machines without compensating you! Yeah... there are SOME surveys that you'll get to complete, and you'll get a few pennies here and there for those... But they'll do everything they can to gather stats from you at no cost to them... Again, this is done by PRETENDING that they need to per-qualify you for surveys... Trust me, they're using those answers that you give, on the "per-qualifications" for statistics companies. Why else would you go through fifteen pages of logos to identify which brands you recognize, for example, all so that they can pretend that you don't qualify, and then send you off to answer more questions without compensating you?

I feel completely conned by this survey company and they have wasted many hours of my time! Please keep away if you value your time and effort. At first, I did 3 or 4 surveys that took a couple hours of my time and managed to claim £3.80 via paypal. It seemed ok and fast payout. The next batch of surveys kept knocking me out half way or most of the way through or just glitching with errors. That was 4 hours of my time wasted, but I just thought it might be down to bad luck or the demographic isn't suitable. The next day I continued to do another 5 surveys which where fully completed and I didnt get the points for them. This was another 3 hours wasted as 1 or 2 of them took a lot longer than the stated time. I complained to customer service and gave screenshots for each survey not credited and just received generic responses stating that they will enquire with the survey provider to credit the missing points for 5 surveys. I left it for a few days, no further responses and still don't have my points. I've just tried 1 more survey on gaming and it asked my 16 year old daughter if she was willing to participate and she did for 20 mins for the rest of the survey as required. She completed the survey, should of been 106 points and it just redirected at the end to a page stating that the survey was no longer required, so shes had her time wasted as well. It seems that Prizerebels stratergy is to sucker you in when you first join by giving you a couple of surveys that go smoothly and let you get a bit of money. Then once you get going the surveys are fiddled with full of errors and excuses to get you to do part or full surveys without paying you and this company keeps the credit for your work.
Absolutely disgraceful, you have been warned! Most of the positive reviews on here are probably done by Prizerebel themselves... I wouldn't put it past th

We're sorry to hear about your frustration. Each survey has a set of qualifications that are set by the researcher for their studies. This can limit the number of surveys you can complete. We do recommend checking back the following day or with our other survey providers if you are seeing more disqualifications. New surveys are constantly being uploaded by the researchers for different demographics and researchers.
