Survey Junkie
July 29, 2022

For the most part I have made great money off the site. Sometimes the surveys will be long and not give you all the credit for doing it. Sometimes when the survey starts up it will send you back saying you were dishonest or you were clicking too fast when you had not even done the survey it was loading up. They need to remove that feature. There have been plenty of times that the has done that. Also, everyone does not read at the same speed. I am a speed reader. Other than that it has been a great program. Also if the survey has closed out then it needs to be take off. It should also not read that the survey is full if it let me in long enough to get half way through it. At least give half of the value and not 2 or 3 points.

Needs to be taken down
September 24, 2023

Survey Junkie is terrible. Low paying, waste of time and they want your information to sell. If you notice, if you ask google is survey junkie is legit, the first search result is a fake review stating survey junkie is great but there is no actual feedback from users. Now come to sitejabber where people can put up their honest opinion about a website or business etc, and take a look at the overall rating now. Do you see how bad this website called survey junkie really is? Some surveys also should be illegal because it asks you plenty of questions just to say after you already put in 10 minutes of your time, sorry this survey wasn't for you and instead of it paying you 80 to 120 points like it said they only pay you 2-3 points which translates as 2 - 3 cents. Cmon people we can do better and take these fools out

It sucks
November 12, 2018

Survey junkie initially gives you this illusion that you can earn quick money but in reality the more you earn they begin to lock you out entirely. Currently I'm literally 36 points away from 2000 and the site gives me this crap that no surveys are available and I would have to contact support to redeem my points. Send them a message last saturday weekend or not it's been two days and I'm already frustrated. It seems this has happened to numerous people who have never gotten actual replies. Suffice to say Survey Junkie was good at first and I managed to cash out $10 until it went to $#*!. I don't expect them to contact me and now I can move on somewhere else that won't waste hours of my time. Screw you survey junkie admins you bunch of hoodwinkers.

Now they want my picture?
September 18, 2023

I've made about $150 over the past year or so. The complaints of getting kicked out of surveys and not getting the point ARE legit. Despite all that I still took surveys. Recently they wanted me to send them a picture of either me or my ID. Take that $5 and shove it, you aren't getting a pic of my ID no matter how "safe" you say it is.

Survey Junkie are thieves.
September 25, 2022

Do not waste your time with survey junkie. They will cheat you out of compensation every chance they get. I've been with them for six months and I've finally had enough. I've complained to them many times and they just reply with an obvious lie every time. Their compensation is already pitiful and still they cheat you over and over. They disqualify you AFTER completing the survey or just give you 3 to 5 cents for it. Now, they won't let me cash out my balance unless I upload my ID to them. I don't trust them and I'm not doing it. Why would they need that after 6 mos of taking their surveys? I emailed them to go to hell. There are other survey companies who won't cheat you. Don't even think about using Survey Junkie. I wish someone had warned me.

I have been doing the surveys for other websites, and I never had a hard time to redeem my points. Other surveys sites, never asked for my address. But Survey Junkie, they will ask to call you to verify your identity in order to redeem your points. This really concerns me.

Stupid questions/ low pay
September 27, 2022

Do you have an emotional attachment to your laundry soap?

Do you get a thrill when you buy car insurance?

These are the idiotic questions some shmuck with an MBA from Nowhere U. Wants you to answer.
These repetetive, nonsensical questions will go on for 20 to 30 minutes for maybe 30 or 40 cents pay... IF you qualify! (You may find yourself answering these bull$#*! questions for 10 minutes... and poof... you're kicked out of the survey..."you're not what we're looking for."
If you somehow manage to endure perhaps a dozen of these surveys and accumulate more than 500 points you can cash out to PayPal, or the payment of your choice.

Point!
March 22, 2022

Have been on Survey Junkie for about 5 hours. Went through at least 80 surveys Was able to finish 4. All the rest said I did not Qualify. 2 of them said I already took them. 2 errors, could not finish them, just stopped in the middle. I'm almost at the $50.00 mark. The closer I get. The more surveys I have to qualify for. Have to complete at least 3 surveys a day, with 10 or more points, for 7 days to get bonuses. The extra change is okay. The time is not.

How is most of these reviews of people not getting paid; and this is just one review site?
This is ridiculous and if SurveyJunkie is a scam, we all need to report that site.

Obviously they are paying other sites to rate them high, as they were one of the top rated sites for Legit Surveys. This is ridiculous and we need to stop this B. S.

Do waste your time. You're gonna do all of these surveys, be disqualified for a third of them in the middle of taking a survey, get denied for the others, and never get paid for the little amount they approve. They will steal your information, then tell you you're disqualified. Don't expect to get a dime.

I am using surveyjunkie.com for a several years. There are multiple tasks and the best is the surveys. They offer surveys based on your profile and pay you even when you are disqualified sometimes not all the time.
Easy to pay out. They pay you in a few days in USD in your Paypal account.

In the last few days, virtually all of the surveys I took are not being credited to my points and most of the surveys are being rejected. I believe this company is going broke and can't afford to pay out anymore. Please don't waste your time with this company, there are a lot more legitimate survey companies out there. I will be filing my complaint with the BBB and FTC as well. I believe this company is violating many federal laws as well.

Scam
December 27, 2019

It says i violated terms. I did nothing but their surveys. Cashed out at 10.00 and after that in May was the last I could do anything. They are liers and block people just to do so. Never was told anything and it only happened after reaching 600 to 700.00. Don't waste your time on this. I think i will be contacting the bbb to let them know how this survey acts. Lies.

I signed up for Survey Junkies thinking it would be a lot like inboxdollars.com. I was very wrong. I took a survey that was posted as ten minutes but lasted for fifteen. Then after I finished the survey I received 0 points as I was told I did not qualify. Contacted customer service and was told they needed the survey number. All surveys in your history do not have numbers. Inboxdollars lets you report problems from your history page so they already have the survey info. Very disappointed in Survey Junkies.

First of all not worth your time put in. Works out to about 90cents to $1 per hour in earnings. Next thing is for wear and tear on your shoulders back and wrists...all for less than $1 per hour...think about it.

Now worst of all are the efforts to extract more info from you in the form of the most personal, yes the most personal details imaginable. Be very careful in this regard. It will happen when you reach a certain earning level, the questions are inserted in the middle of a otherwise generic type survey. Having nothing to do with the survey but some kind of police/armed forces type questioning...Suffice to say it gets really weird.

Frustrating
September 17, 2022

It pays out but more often than not you can get to the end of a survey ranging from 5 - 20 minutes and it crashes. It takes a really long time to get to a survey that actually gives you a full reward too.

Poor Customer Service
February 18, 2023

Here is the good. They past faster than most surveys sites on the net - immediately! And for the most part you can find lots of surveys. However, if you encounter an issue and need to reach customer service - good luck. Each time I try to get an issue resolved, I get unhelpful responses. I have to send 2 to 3 messages before I get an educated and beneficial answer. Use the site with the hope you never have to use Customer Service.

Awful
August 5, 2022

Forces you to give up phone number, address, zip code, personal bank information, ect just to earn little money. It is a site that will get you hacked and scammed for any real life possessions you may own. When I decided to finally give my information (redundantly) to claim, they took my info and forced me to speak to a scammer on the phone who then tried to hack into my bank account and take all of my money.

User scammer
December 29, 2022

At least 3 out of 5 surveys after answering a bunch of questions, they come back and tell you that you don't qualify for this survey and give you 2-3 points instead of the 45 or more points that it offered originally. I think they are scamming people to do the surveys and not giving the published amount of points. I don't trust them.
