branded surveys

It's a great survey platform, the problems with it are the surveys sometimes make you burn 15 minutes, disqualify you, and give you no points for your time. Some of the time estimates are much longer than initially communicated too.

Be careful before joining this site. After years of collecting points, when I tried to redeem the company refused to pay. I have tried to contact customer service 4-5 times but haven't received a response. I suspect that since I was trying to redeem more than $60 of points that I earned, Branded Survey thinks it's a big amount that they cannot afford to pay. Before spending hours and hours of your precious time answering surveys, be ready that at the end you will not get paid anything. This seems to be the business model of this company.

In beginning it may seem that this is not a bad site to earn a £10-20, but be careful. In one day, the company will simply block your account and not return you all the money that you have earned. They explain this by the fact that, in their opinion, you are not entirely honestly answering questions. Don't waste your time on this site they are scammers!

Past 2 months I was able to do surveys and redeem my points fine. Yesterday my account was blocked suddenly stating you accessed from a restricted country. I have been using same desktop for past few years and I don't get more information on systemic blocks. They have rejected my withdrawal request and account is inactive. This company is just stealing your points / hardwork after a while. Frustrated.

At least they should redeem the points you have earned.

If you are looking to waste countless hours answering surveys and then NOT get paid for them, but instead have your account closed and your payout rejected then this is the site for you! They could care less, they steal points, and they will NOT pay you for your time. Trust me, do not think "Oh maybe I will be one of the lucky ones" no. No you will not. You will waste hours hoping to get $5 then you will be rejected :) Take my advice and just go to another site and yes I know they will eventually comment on this with there "Oh well it's a community thing and we're sorry your account got flagged" no. There is no reason why my account got flagged, you just didn't want to pay me for my time. So take my advice dear reader and AVOID this company at all cost.

Recently I have noticed a lot of unsolicited emails and I only do this survey service and one other. They do not sell your details but one of the companies that " branded" represent "Lucid" specifically say they do so I've now stopped doing their surveys. I also read very very quickly so I fill surveys quickly... maybe ask this in your "getting to know you surveys" because of this I have gone from excellent to poor in a week and when I come across a survey by Lucid I just back out it. Branded need to change their policies and who they work with an Amazon Boucher is not worth the hassle you get from unsolicited emails by the dozen!

Entertaining, thoughtful, gets me thinking. I love the surveys because they allow me to share my experiences with the products and services that I have used. Also makes me more aware of what is out there so I am better informed.

I mostly am ok with this site but as of late it seems they frequently dump you 90 percent of the way through a survey with no points. Maybe they have no control over this but they should keep track of surveys that do this. It's very frustrating to work on a survey for 10 minutes, give them a lot of information, and then get bumped because the "survey is full" if it's full they should not accept you to begin with.

I am jobless and was looking for income when a website pointed me to branded surveys. I set up an account and started doing surveys and half the time it would cancel before I could even finish. Once I logged out it refused to let me back in. So I started searching for answers, and it turns out this happens to a lot of people! Wow. Talk about a waste of time.

I accrued points by doing multiple surveys and suddenly was prohibited from taking more surveys. No explanation given. I earned hundreds of points and money that was never paid to me. The site is a rip-off. Be very wary. Stay away!

I just signed up to this a few weeks ago and earned enough to cash out, the surveys are easy and pay a lot more than other companies out there. Very seldom do I experience getting kicked off with no pay towards the end of the survey. I haven't received my pay yet, but if I do, than this company is really a great company to make some side money on. Its not enough to live off of, but it has made spending and living a little more comfortably better for me.

I get so many emails during the day. Every time I go to do a survey there are none. When I do get one slot of times I'm 15 minutes in and have answered all related questions and it tells me I'm not a match… it even has waited and then told me the quota is met. What a waste of my time. Seems a bit like scam… get all my answers but I don't get the points. It's getting frustrating. I have gotten points a couple of times. Normally when your not a match it gives you 3 points. Sometimes I don't even get that. Each point is worth a penny when you cash in. Someone needs to manage these surveys better. Don't send me an email at 4:15 and tell me to log on and when I do before 4:16 there are no surveys. Happens several times a day.

It's one of the best I have tried so far, and they are upfront about how long it'll take you to complete a survey.

You also get boosters the more surveys you complete, which help you earn more points. Points you can redeem for real money.

I like how easy you can navigate the website, and the number of payout options they offer is more than enough for the majority of people.

The time limits on the surveys are WAY longer than what is advertised. A good example would be they will give you 150 points for a 12 min survey. The survey then takes around 30-45 minutes. If the point system was better and they time frame was more accurate it would be worth doing. It is very easy to sign up, but definitely more time consuming than what is told. Also, you could be halfway through a survey (happened to me twice) and you don't answer how they want you to and they will kick you off saying "you are not compatible for this survey, try another!" If that doesn't get your blood boiling I do not know what will!

I let my points pile up and I shouldn't have! I joined two weeks ago. I had 6500 points. Now it seems as though I wasted all that time. I'm so upset. Customer service is a bot. So can't really get anywhere. I have no idea why I was banned. I take the surveys seriously. I really feel like if anything, I should get the money I'm owed! I am starting to think they're running a scam.
