  1. American Consumer Opinion Review by DorothyJ from United States

    I have only been a member of American Consumer Opinion Panel for over 6 months now, and in that short amount of time its has become one of the more reliable paid survey opportunities of my experience. Typically I receive 2-3 offers a month. Usually I receive a screener survey first and I am always told up front if I qualify to complete the longer paid survey. The screener surveys are short and only take a few minutes to complete. Usually I qualify for the longer survey. The surveys are well organized and easy to navigate. I have also gotten to test out a few products for them including one for a product that paid me $20 for my time.

    When a survey is completed I receive payment by check usually within 7-10 days if that long. The one time I had to contact customer service because a survey had an error that prevented me from completing it, I received a response by the next day. The payment is always for the amount I was told up front. My only gripe with American Consumer Panel is that they don’t pay in Paypal which would be more convenient.

  3. American Consumer Opinion Review by roxyranelli from United States

    This is a nifty little survey site with a nifty and appealing site to go along. Although I have been a member for under a year, I have received surveys and have been paid. It does take some time, however, the payments do come (so who can complain, right?). I can say that they offer competitive rates for surveys when comparison is a factor, but there are not many surveys available from week to week. I have found it much easier to qualify, though, on random surveys. This one is a keeper and hopefully with increase their survey base.

  4. American Consumer Opinion Review by happygal from United States

    I really like ACOP. It is nice that they are upfront about pre-qualifying people so that when you get a survey from them, you know you are going to qualify. In addition, I have also won sweeps money from them for taking the qualifier surveys. In the scheme of things, they tend to be a better paying site. I often qualify for, and get paid for, $10 surveys that are not overly long or tedious.

  7. American Consumer Opinion Review by pamela walden from unitedstates

    ACO is by far, one of the best survey sites out there.
    I get alot of surveysfrom them, 4 a month, maybe more.
    The surveys are very interesting, and very easy to do, not very time consuming.
    Customer service is great, they respond quickly, and payments are right on time, and never a problem!
    If i may, i highly reccommend ACO, one of the best!!

  8. American Consumer Opinion Review by Melissa from United States

    I think ACO is a very legitimate well known company. There surveys are not tedious and overly long and when you have completed a survey you realize for as quick and easy the survey is that the pay is good for the requested information. Surveys could be more frequent though as I do not feel they send out enough.

  10. American Consumer Opinion Review by Y.G.S. Raghavan from India

    Positive points:
    1. Payments are prompt and quality of surveys are also good.

    Negative points:

    1. Frequency of surveys are very less and can get surveys once in three or four months only.

  11. American Consumer Opinion Review by Carrie Anne from United States

    I have been a member with this company for at least 2 years and rarely get surveys from them. I don’t think I have had a paying one from them this year. I have had only 3 or 4 surveys even pre-qualifying me this year. It is the only survey company that I barely hear from.

    Their website does not list any of their surveys either, so you can’t really look up if you have any that you can apply for.

    I think this company is good if you actually get surveys, but it’s very frustrating to just to be part of and not get anything.

  12. American Consumer Opinion Review by Larry from Canada

    “American Consumer Opinion” makes you think that only americans can qualify, but if you read it with more detail, it’s for consumers that use american products, which would include everyone around the world. You might get frustrated because of how little surveys you recieve early on (for those of us not in the US, I imagine,) but eventually, when one does come, you’ll be pleased. The qualifying process is very outfront, so you’ll know whether or not you qualify, and the surveys aren’t overly-tedious. You’ll recieve fair payment within the month, sometimes within two weeks. A great survey panel for those patient ones, it’ll pay off. Recommended.

  13. American Consumer Opinion Review by Adam Langham from Luxembourg

    I have been a member of this panel for 8 months now and have received in total 1! survey.maybe it is because i live in backwater luxembourg that i do not receive a lot of them.The compensation is good but it takes ages to get here.by the time i had received it i had completely forgotten about ever taking a survey.The surveys themselves are probably the best i have ever filled in.

  18. American Consumer Opinion Review by Mary Ann from United States

    ACO was the very first survey site I joined over a year ago. I have waited to do a review because as much as I love them, I also don’t like them. I receive a survey MAYBE once a month. The whole time I have been with them, I have qualified for 3 surveys. However…they are very generous in their payments AND the payments arrive in the blink of an eye. I also won a random drawing and was compensated $10. So, I will keep doing their surveys, but wish I had better luck with them.

  20. American Consumer Opinion Review by Raider from United States

    I joined this panel 5 months ago and since then have only received about 3-4 surveys. I qualified for none of them. I’m guessing they are either largely interested in demographics or else I just don’t have what they’re looking for in regards to their surveys.

    Judging by all the reviews, this company is certainly worth trying, but don’t expect a whole lot of surveys.

    Not many surveys (1 - 2 each month), but they are fun and well compensated. The check usually arrives within 4 - 5 weeks. Recommended.

  22. American Consumer Opinion Review by Kelly from United States

    I really enjoy ACO! Yes, I wish they sent more surveys, more often. However, it is always a nice and welcoming suprise to get a check in your mailbox. You don’t have to worry about points or redeeming anything, they just send you a check out for each survey that you qualify for, which is really nice !

  23. American Consumer Opinion Review by tamara from United States

    I registered in March. I already had a few pre-screen surveys, I qualified and I got an envelope in the mail on how to follow a 5 days long survey with my immediate family. I liked that, it’s been an interesting family activity and the pay is about to come. 8$. I still wait for an early payment of 4 dollars that has not arrived yet.

  26. American Consumer Opinion Review by Jennifer Schnell from United States

    In the past 3 months or so I have gotten involved in the online survey sites. I have been most impressed with American Consumer Opinion (ACO) site. The surveys come in at a steady flow and I usually qualify for most of them. Payments are the fastest out of all the survey sites I belong to. ACO is a very reliable source and I would recommend it to anyone looking to get into this.

    I have been a member of American Consumer Opinions for almost 1 year. In that time, I have only gotten a few surveys; maybe 1 per month and most of them I didn’t qualify for. Maybe you would have more luck, but at least the surveys are short and easy. Customer Service is also pretty good.
