Wow. I can honestly not believe that Treasure Trooper has only a 29% as its score. I actually came to SiteJabber to research something else, but out of curiosity I landed here. Even though I have a million things to do, I felt the need to write a brief review because the current reviews are definitely NOT representative of most Troopers' experiences, or any actually that I have ever seen.

For the record, I joined Treasure Trooper in the last week of December 2013. I have made about $2,000 there by doing surveys and participating in the various other methods available to make money there. I have NEVER had an issue receiving my earnings either. In addition to the money, I have earned numerous $50 Visa Debit cards, a $20 Amazon gift card, and earned even more money & got to review some great products via the follow ups that you sometimes qualify for while doing surveys at Treasure Trooper.

I noticed one of the reviews stated that the people in Treasure Trooper's chat room were not very helpful or friendly. This is absolutely false. Treasure Trooper's chat room is always moderated. In addition, the members go above and beyond to answer new members' questions and make them feel welcome. I have gone on to connect with many Troopers outside of chat in the real world. I am in the chat room often and I love assisting the newbies. I consider it an investment that I will eventually receive a return on. My philosophy is that the more members at Treasure Trooper that are successful in earnings, the more money the site is able to make. Treasure Trooper will be able to maintain and acquire more money making opportunities for all of us Troopers. As an added bonus, you can earn valuable free items while in chat, play games, and fight your dragons on Friday night in an effort to show off your skills. My favorite chat game JANGO, which is played on Tuesday evenings, which is Treasure Trooper's version of BINGO!

In my opinion, Treasure Trooper is the best survey site out there. It is unique in that there are so many different ways to earn money. For example, you can raise and fight dragons. Not only is this entertaining, but you can make money doing this as well, if your dragon is the Victor. Dragons are worth between $5 - $100, depending on the breed. Be forewarned though that the dragon feature can be quite addictive and time consuming.

In my opinion, one of the easiest methods to earn money at Treasure Trooper is by making cash calls. This is one of my favorites. Just select the call you wish to make, follow the guidelines, and get paid just for asking companies about their products or services. Often this takes only 4 minutes! You can use your house or cell phone and no special equipment is needed.

In the Treasure Trooper's forums, you have access to detailed guides that will assist you in your Treasure Trooper journey. While the chat room offers instant gratification in that you can get a question answered in real time, but the quality of the response you receive will be based on whoever is present in chat at that time. The forums are a great way to gather even more tips and information from the moderators, staff, creators and your fellow peers. And as with all of Treasure Troopers endeavors, there are fun games and contests that are played in the forums often for cash prizes.

Treasure Trooper has a Jungle Slots game where you can earn money and other items. Each spin costs 1 gold coin. Until you complete the Treasure Hunt, you will be limited to one spin per day at Treasure Trooper, but you get one additional free spin every 24 hours by accessing Treasure Troopers Facebook app... A gold coin is given away each hour at random times in the chat room. Completing the activities under Cash Offers will get you the stated reward plus a free gold coin. The Jungle Slots has 4 available relics; Claras Kiss, Coggs Calculator, Mabutus Spear, and Jacks Hat. Once you collect the 4 available relics on the Jungle Slots you earn $100 i. E. Happiness!

Treasure Troopers Treasure Hunt is another unique and engaging method of earning money while simultaneously having fun. To begin the hunt one must enter Mabutu's Trading Hut and acquire the 4 map fragments. Once you have the map, your journey begins. The Treasure Hunt is not easy to complete, but it is definitely worth the effort. Upon completion of the hunt you will earn $100.

Treasure Trooper has the most rewarding Referral Program, bar none. This is a great feature that allows you to earn additional money by putting others to work! You will receive a percentage of the earnings of every referral you obtain. An easy method to gain new referrals is by collecting pearls via Treasure Trooper's pearl game. The pearls can be exchanged to obtain a friendship bracelet at Mabutu's Trading Hut. Treasure Trooper will assign you 2 new referrals per bracelet. Climb high and reach top tier, diamond level, of the active referrals' pyramid and you will earn an extra $300 bonus.

Lastly one practice that absolutely makes Treasure Trooper outshine any other similar site is that if that the administrators truly care about their Troopers. Trust me I know how cliché that sounds (and no they did not compensate me to say this, in fact they do not even know I am writing this review), but it is true. They have a suggestion thread in the forums, where members can make suggestions that they feel will make the site itself better. The staff actually responds and often implements the suggestions. If you have a question, suggestion, compliment, comment, or need clarification on something that you feel needs personalized attention from the actual creators of Treasure Trooper; they are at your disposal every Monday at 3:30 p.m. in the chat room.

The bottom line is as with anything; what you earn at Treasure Trooper will be dependent on the amount of effort that you put into it. There are many members that earn far more than me, but rightly so as they put more time and energy into it.

If anyone would like to become a Treasure Trooper too, please feel free to reach out to me on Facebook. My name there is Cassie Sue Hill and I have the same profile picture there as I do here. If you sign up via a link I can provide you there you'll receive $5, a nest ($3.33), and a dragon egg ($5) [Dragons once grown can be sold $5 - $100 depending on breed].

My name on Treasure Trooper is cassie. For those that take advantage of this and join; I will be more than happy to answer questions there via their message system, in chat, or the forums. For added encouragement and to express my appreciation, I reward my top earning referrals each month. I hope to see you there!

So while visiting another website that I love I came across an add for TreasureTrooper.com a website that pays you money for taking surveys. At first I was skeptical. Money is not free and there is always a catch. (If anyone is just giving it away let me know.)
So I visit the site, read some of the very vague directions and decide what the hell I will try it. When I sign up I make my first blunder. At all websites that I place orders at I use just my initials for First Name, Last Name. Out of habit I do this at TreasureTrooper, you will understand why this is wrong later. After giving all my information, including my weight on the moon, so that I can receive checks, I decide to start right away. (The money is only like 50-75 cents a survey but if you take just enough to make 2.50 a day its and extra $75 a month. Nothing to sneeze at.)
I begin by taking a few surveys and find out its pretty much like any other site, you take a pre-survey to find out if you qualify for the real survey, then take the real survey and then get barraged with a million radio buttons for every possible product they can sell you.
New to the site I'm not sure if you have to say yes to at least some of these products or if you can just skip them all and still get credit for taking the survey.
I decide to peruse the site for some F&Qs. Nice thought, but not much for easily found answers. They do have a How It Works page but again so vague and obvious. "Complete a survey and we will pay you. Refer a friend and get a % of there earnings."
Seeing a Forum link I click. It directed me to a page where I could read the forum or chat live. Since I wanted to get started as soon as possible I thought chatting live would be the best bet. Perhaps there were some other "Treasure Troopers" who could answer my questions!
I chose to be anonymous to chat, who knows why I had already signed away my first born, and logged on. Not many people were in the chat room so I figured it would be easy to get some answers. My first question though, turned out to be my last.

In a round about way without exact quotes the conversation went like this:

"Does anyone know if when I complete a survey, but do not click yes to any of those radio buttons if I get credit for the survey?"
I waited about 5 or so minutes with no answer but I could hear the sound the computer was making like people were chatting but nothing was appearing on my screen. So I figured it was my problem and logged out and then back in. I repeated my question. The first person to reply, Bob, we'll call him, told me
"it depends on the survey."
I waited a bit for him to expound upon this answer but nothing came so I said
"how so?"
Bob: "Some surveys do and some don't"
Thinking in my head, well genius how do I know?, and how many do I have to click? And are there ads that are better than others to click on?, I decided to ask
"so sometimes I have to buy things to get credit for the survey?"
Bobs next answer astounded me
"Username do you speak English?"
What? Do I speak Englishwhat the hell does he mean. I was just trying to ask a few questionsthis stupid site is so vague and I was so excited to use it and now I'm the dumb one!
Me: "excuse me, but I am new to the site and trying to get some answers. This site is very non "new user" friendly. There is no need for you to be rude to me."
Bob: "now I know you don't speak English."

I was livid! I know it's just a stupid website but what the hell did I do other than ask a few questions. Other users chimed in with LOLs for Bob. Someone said I asked the same questions over again, (apparently my first question had shown up before I logged off unbeknownst to me).
I then find out that Bob is an admin of the site! I find this out because I had signed in anonymously and Bob posted my initials in the chat room, which are what I had used to sign up for the site. He says, I think your name is not really XX is it? (I did use my real initials to sign up.) He states I won't get paid if I'm just signed up with initials. They won't send check to XX. (while this is true I logged in anonymously, I think I still remember the definition of that word...)
No longer being relatively anonymous and after debating about writing a few chosen words for Bob someone took pity on me and explained very clearly where I should go on the website find more answers to my questions. This person was not an admin and thank god for that! I thanked her profusely and logged off.

You can take my post for what you like, while I realize it is just a silly survey website and I know that it won't affect most people if you think about choosing this site try to find someone else who already knows the ins and outs first or just go somewhere else. Perhaps I could have mulled around some more and figured it all out but I was so pissed at my treatment I just decided it wasn't worth it.
I have thus canceled my account and will NEVER recommend the site to anyone. Admins take head, treat your customers poorly and you won't have a site to run in the future. Customer service is the key to any good business and why people haven't figured this out yet is beyond me.
