The surveys with Mindfield Online are interesting and if you answer the questions truthfully and qualify, then there are cash awards. Sometimes, Mindfield Online has products that need to be evaluate as well.

I JOINED THIS PANEL AND COMPLETED ABOUT FIVE SURVEYS BUT WAS NEVER CREDITED FOR THEM I CONTACTED CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THIS AND WAS TOLD THAT CREDIT WOULD BE ISSUED WHEN THE SURVEYS CLOSED. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE TWO MONTHS TO CLOSE A SURVEY. I HAVE SINCE REQUESTED TO BE DROPPED FROM THIER PANEL ABOUT A MONTH AGO BUT STILL GET SURVEY NOTICES OBVIOUSLY THIS SITE WANTS YOU TO WORK FOR THEM BUT IS UNWILLING TO COMPENSATE YOU FOR YOUR TIME MY ADVISE IS DONT WASTE YOUR TIME

I have been a member of mindfield for several months, and I have found it to be a pretty good panel. I took two surveys one for $8 and one for $3 and was able to redeem for an $11 dollar check. Survey frequency could be a little better, a little less than the others, but so far compensation seems to be pretty good for the amount of time it takes to complete the surveys. Just wish they sent more

I joined Mindfield just over a year ago. During that time I have earned a bit more than $50 having completed 20 surveys. Surveys have paid between $1 and $5. You have to have $10 in your account before you can cash out. I have requested a check a couple of times and received payment within 4 to 6 weeks. While I don’t receive a lot of survey invites from them, I have been generally pleased with the relationship. I have not encountered any problems and encourage you to give them a try.

I have been a Mindfield member for 8 months. In all this time, I have earned a whopping $10. There were about 5 surveys I took and were never given credit for. I contacted customer service and did not receive a response. Two months ago, I finally reached the $10 mark and cashed out. It only took a week to receive my check. Survey invites have always been sporatic, but since cashing out, I have not received another survey invitation. I can’t recommend this survey site!

I have been a member for far too long trying to reach the $10 minimum for payout. I have several surveys that I have completed that would bring me to this threshold but are still “open” and therefore no payment is to be awarded for completing the survey. One particular survey is from 10 months ago. Response from CS was slow and basically told me what I already knew. Payment will be credited when the survey has been closed. Well, why does it take so long. My recommendation is to skip this survey site and go with one of the more reputable ones. Save yourself time and money because in the end you’re just doing the surveys for free!

I have to say that personally I really love this site. They send surveys quite frequently and the compensation is always more than most other survey sites. You may have to wait up to 4 weeks for some of your credits to show up, but again, I feel the compensation is well worth it!

I’ve been a member since 2004 and have never had any problems. The surveys seem to come in spurts, but they always pay. This site provides product testing that pays very nicely. One of my favorite sites!

I joined Mindfield Surveys awhile back,can’t remember the specific date. But I have taking the surveys and I finally reached the amount I wanted to cash out at. The site says you you either have 10.00 or exceed this amount before cashing out. I highly recommend this site. Surveys are not usually too long and are worth the effort of applying. Thank you Mindfield for providing a legitimate site.

I have gotten surveys from your group who proceed to ask my questions about the survey in questions. After I answer for at least 5 min. and they obtain the information they want, they then tell me I am not qualified and I never receive my compensation or “reward”. This is not a fair survey group.

I joined the Mindfield Online Survey Panel on July, 2008 and in thse 8 months I have so far earned $110 taking their surveys. It is a great legitimate Survey Panel. They send me surveys almost daily.

They send surveys through email, and award between $1 to $10 or more for successfully completing a survey. Even if we don’t qualify for a survey, they enter our names into their Sweepstakes Entries.

Most of their surveys are OTX surveys but also they send us other interesting surveys, including some Products for Home Testing, as well. Their Cashout threshold is a minimum of $5. Previously, they used to send us our payment through checks only, however recently they have included the Paypal facility also alongwith checks and we can choose any method of payment each time we request for a payment. This is really a great thing.

I love taking their surveys since they are generally short and mostly easy ones. If we love taking OTX Surveys then this is a great Survey Panel, since most of their surveys are OTX Surveys. I qualify for most of their surveys and and earn money fast. However, our earned money do not show up immediately in our accounts after completing a survey and we have to wait for some days.

Anybody over 15 year old are eligible to join Mindfield Online Survey Panel and start taking their surveys. I would recommend this survey Panel to all who are eligible. If you qualify their surveys you can earn free money fast.

Joined this panel about 3 months ago. Always get a good number of invites per month to take surveys but there is a drawback. It seems IMPOSSIBLE to qualify for any of them, as in 1 out of 7 in my case. Probably explains why they lowered their cash out limit to $5.
When you finally can cash out check arrival so far is under 2 weeks.
Compensation is usually #2 or less per survey, although I’ve gotten an invite for a $6 survey which of course I didn’t qualify for. My overall rating says it all.

17. Mindfield Online $64.00 ($10 payout) (product trials) (Joined: 2008-02-01) ($61 rec’d)

It came as no surprise to me when Mindfield Online lowered their minimum pay out from $10 to $5 earlier this year, because I earned just $3 with them during my first five months and was only able to cash out after six months.

Many of their surveys are from OTX and pay from $1 to $6. I have earned $64 over the past 16 months from 25 surveys that I have qualified for and they also send product trials as well.

The most frustrating aspect of Mindfield Online, aside from not qualifying for very many surveys, is waiting for the incentives to be credited to your account; however, their customer service is top notch, replies promptly to any inquiries and checks arrive rapidly once requested. There is no doubt that everyone needs to be a member of Mindfield Online.

In about one month I received 15 survey invitations from Mindfield. I didn’t qualify for a single one. Ten of the fifteen were OTX surveys. What else is there to say? Another waste of time.

I have been a member of Midfield since October 2006. They notify via e-mail when a survey is available and their prices range from $1 to $6 upon completing a survey.

PROS: The positives of this site include the frequency of surveys, the decent monetary amounts for surveys completed. The surveys are usually not to long and fairly easy to complete. Also they are very quick to pay when you cash out. Everytime I’ve cashed out my check has been received in 7-10 days. Also they now have a paypal option for payment. They leave the choice up to you at the time you cash out.

NEGATIVE:The only two negatives I have is the time it takes for a completed survey to be credited to your account.It often takes 4-6 weeks for the money to show in your account.Also when you log onto their website to check your survey history they are always behind by a month or more displaying your survey history. It’s very hard to tell, unless you keep track by pen and paper, if they always accurately credit your account. My siggestion is everytime you complete a survey make sure you write down the date and monetary amount you won.

OVERALL: This is a good site. It’s not as profitable as some of the other sites but you will receive regular invitations and when you request payment you will receive it quickly. I would recommend this survey site.

I have been a member of Mindfield for about 2 months now and I have already my first payout. I have also did a test product for them and I am expecting a payment any day now. I have not had any problems with them and I do recommend them.

I have been a member for about 2 years and I have never qualified to take a complete survey. They ask me enough questions to get the information they need and then they tell me I did not qualify. This survey company is a waste of my time.

I joined mindfield 3 months ago and only earn 10$ from paypal.I have to say i hate OTX surveys and most of mindfield surveys come from OTX.It is hard to complete it and need to take long time to do it if you quality for the screen.
Good news are the site really pay you money.although it is not a good site for me,you can still earn some extra money from it.
So if you have time,try it.
