Paid by Paypal in 3 days
I only qualified for 1 out of 12 survey invitations.
I received $1 for an 8 min survey which is not terrible.
The best thing about them is that there is no minimum cash out and I received a PayPal payment the day after I requested it.
All in all, not worth my time.
Greenfield Online is one of the worst online survey companies in the United States. I have been a member since October 2008 and have only earned $2 (I actually qualified for a survey back in January 2009). I do not know how other people are earning so much money doing surveys, they must fit into some particular demographic. I never qualify for surveys, every time I start to answer the survey questions, I do not qualify. Sometimes I only click my name, only to be told I do not qualify. How is that possible, I only clicked my name. This makes me think that my opinion does not matter or they just do not want to pay me or they have blacklisted my name. There is always some type of technical difficulty with their surveys. I only qualify for surveys that give you an entry for some scam sweepstakes. What are the sweepstake prizes and who wins them. This site is a waste of time. I am getting tired of answering 40-60 minutes of survey questions only to be told sorry you don’t qualify. I knew when I signed up that I would not get rich doing this, but do not waste my time in letting me sign up if you do not want my opinion. Greenfield Online is a scam company. DO NOT SIGN UP AND DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THEM.
I have been a member of Greenfield since December 22, 2005. I have made only $83.25 from them and have earned over 300 sweeps entries and have yet to win a thing. I had to find out about GFO the hard way. In my rewards account, surveys that were suppose to be paid were market as sweeps entries only. I had to start keeping up with all my surveys by copying the completion screen, pasting it within the invitation and emailing it to myself so that I could keep up with what they owed me. I had been cheated out a few paying surveys that is why I started doing that. I caught them several times misrepresenting paying surveys for sweeps entries. I continued to attempt to take surveys from invitations they would send to me. However, when I would go to take the survey, I would be automatically disqualified before answering any questions. However, any surveys that were for a sweeps entry, I wasn’t DQ’d. For GFO to think that it is okay to take a 30 minute survey for 1 sweeps entry is ridiculous. I have run across on a few occasions the same survey at GFO and another survey site. While GFO is offering a sweeps entry, the other survey is offering a monetary reward. I am still a member of GFO, but I rarely take any surveys for a sweeps entry for 30 minutes of my time when I can take the same survey at another site and get paid.
Today I registered with Greenfield Online surveys. Then I received my first survey–after sitting at my computer for 15 minutes I was told I did not qualify for the survey.Then another was sent. Same thing happened. My, oh my, someone is taking advantage of my time! That doesn’t sit well with me. I was just looking to earn a little “pin money” but at this rate I was the one getting stuck.
No way will I recommend this company to anyone. Unless, of course, you just want to “warm your buns”from sitting for hours and then end up with a numb Butt the rest of the day. I’ve got better things to do like searching for another survey company. Within 20 minutes of registration and two diffferent survey attempts, I just pushed the “unsubscribe button”and recalled what my daddy used to say when things didn’t add up –”somethin ain’t right here.”
Therefore in rating this company on Compensation–well it’s hard to say cause I didn’t work but 20 mins–so I’d say it’s Terrible. Timeless of Payment, well since I didn’t get paid then I’ll have to base that on the 20 mins of being disqualified and just figure I could count on it being Terrible also. As far as Member Support-, well, since I didn’t have time to meet and chat with any one online then I’d say , Terrible. I’ll leave the last one ,Overall Rating, up to any and all reading this to come to their own conclusion.
I became a member couple months. They do me the same way they send me surveys answer one question then they say you not qualify. I just want to put my 2 cents in. I like doing surveys.
GFO was the first survey org I joined after joining Opinion Buyers a month ago. GFO sends email invites for surveys more often than anyone else, but I have yet to qualify a single payment, in spite of completing numerous surveys & completing “qualifying” info for many more. I have the feeling that they’re in the business of collecting data for free.
Greenfield is my favorite survey site.Everyday you have many surveys to take it.you may failed but you still have a chance to win big sweepstakes.expecially sometimes you done Invoke Interactive online and earn more(each interactive pay 10$,15$,20$,25$,30$,50$,75$).Receive your rewards by PAYPAL.
I would very very like to recommend the site to everyone.best survey site for me.
