This is pretty good about paying in a timely manner. I really enjoy the majority of their surveys! My overall rating is at 7 b/c I think that the surveys are of great quality and it’s pretty fair when it comes to qualifying.

I enjoy SurveySavvy’s surveys, I just don’t qualify for any. I think out of the year I have been a member there, I have finished one. The one I did was quick and to the point, with fast payment, just wish I could take more. I have never contacted admin, so put a 5 being neutral.

I have been a member here for awhile! One thing I enjoy mostly is that the surveys are alot shorter than most companies and usually cut straight to the point. Although they may not always be the highest paying, it is quite worth it to complete them for the simple fact that you are not getting bored checking boxes for 45 minutes. Great company which I feel will be around for awhile!

I have been impressed with SurveySavvy. The number of survey offerings has been small compared to other sites but the quality and compensation are above average. I have been involved with one long term study with SurveySavvy that has paid incredibly well. Timeliness of payment has been well above average and member support has been very responsive and timely. They certainly deserve the 9 rating I have given them.

SurveySavvy pays well for surveys, but the problem is that they do not send that many. The good thing about them though is that you can earn $2 per referral, and I have been able to earn extra money by referring my friends and family members to the site.

i have been with surveysavvy for 3 months now and have completed 5 surveys totalling about $55.00…whats odd though 3 months later my account still says $0.00…i dont know whats up about that….what company takes 3 months just to credit an account….

You have to watch these guys CAREFULLY! I have been doing surveys for this company for about two years, and have generally been satisfied, except the survey invitations are VERY few and far between. I completed a survey which was SUPPOSED to pay $10. Upon completion, I received a page which said: Thank you for completing this survey, 275 points have been placed into your account. These people are supposed to have put CASH into my account, NOT points! Where did these points come from, and where did they go…into the ether? (it was a survey that SurveySavvy had farmed out to another site, a site that I guess normally pays by point values) I have been fighting by email to try and get the $10 put into my account, but all they want to say is that I must not have completed the survey (even though I received a page which said I completed the survey), or the survey must have been closed (then what the heck was I doing working for 20 minutes on a closed survey???), and they will put me into the drawing for a gift certificate. They won’t EVEN acknowledge that I completed the survey. So, I would say Caveat Emptor, so to speak, (buyer beware) with this company. I will say that I NEVER expected this kind of nonsense from Luth (SurveySavvy), as they have never pulled this type of crap before, but here they are pulling one over on me, and shame on them!

get frequent surveys but they never apply. did a few but was ended by them w/o any note of compensation. checked my file and was not compensated. i’ve been a member for about 4 months and have about $3. not worth it. currently can’t get to my profile page.

For me, SurveySavvy is a good panel to be a part of. I get VERY few surveys from them, although I never get many surveys from ANY of the panels I’m a part of. However, I like that SurveySavvy pays MONEY for doing surveys and isn’t on a “points” basis. That is a big plus, and another great thing is that you can send for your money at any time. (You don’t have to wait to reach $5 or $10 in order to request payment. I have received $1 checks from them, as well as slightly bigger amounts.) Obviously you won’t get rich from this, but I’ve gotten more money, and in less time, from SurveySavvy than I have from the other survey panels. Now if only I could get some referrals…

I think everything is fine. you can expect 1 or 2 invitations each week and i don’t qualify half of them. It is intereting that some survey pays you 1 dollar and need 20 minutes while some survey 20 dollars for 20 minutes.

Being an Asian, i suppose the whole online survey thing still hasn’t quite captured the imaginations of the companies operating in these regions. Tried survey savvy…which is one of the few surveys open internationally..got few surveys very recently but long way to go before I can receive a pay check

The site maybe pretty good for us residents but for us asians its just a complete nonsense i have been a member for almost a month and yet i have not recieved a single survey

SurveySavvy is a good site but has some flaws.
I find it difficult to qualify for most surveys. Surveys get filled within about 2 hours of posting (via email sent to you) most of the time. Also, qualifying is not easy. I am a caucasian, male, married, and homeowner. You think I would qualify for some surveys? I get in on about 1 in 4 oppurtunities. Only a few surveys per month.
Pay is usually $1 to $2 per the majority of surveys.
THE OTHER BIG FLAW: I think surveysavvy goes overboard asking for personal information sometimes. One survey asked for my ISP email address and password so they could hawk my emails for a few weeks to learn about what offers I receive. They wanted to pay me $10 to $100 for that.
I SAID NO WAY! I have tons of personal info go to my ISP email. Like bank statements, car payments, cable payments, stock investing transactions, there was no way in heck I would ever allow any survey company access to my primary email address!
I immediately emailed customer response to nicely give them h*ll. They never responded back to me.

I have been a member of this panel for four months now and still have yet to qualify for a single survey. As previous reviewers have noted, they only send about 2-3 surveys per month. Also, as Mitchelina pointed out, they go a little overboard (or at least IMO) on personal information. I for one feel fairly uncomfortable giving details about personal health issues and bank accounts with any survey company! In all honesty I’m not so sure I’m going to have much luck with this panel, so I can’t comment any further or give it a higher rating.

They actually pay you for you opinions but it takes months to get a payment processed.

I joined SurveySavvy 5 months ago. At first, I received about 6 surveys for which I qualified and should have made about $20. However, my account balance still shows $0!!! In the last 2 months, I’ve received about 3 surveys and haven’t qualified. I will no longer be doing surveys for this company.
