I have been a synovate member for quite some time. Although, I have been made aware that this company is known to send out some high paying surveys (not your normal $2 to $3) I have not been so lucky to receive any. I have received quite a few for points, I would say on average about 2-3 per month. I think overall the surveys are pretty long for points, but if it were offered for cash I would say it was about the norm. There definately needs to be a wider array of surveys for cash, but there is a wonderful staff behind it all, and with the right demographics you may get lucky.

This site is ok. They do pay you when they say, but you dont get a lot of surveys offered. Also it usually takes some time before new surveys are posted. If you check each month though you should get at least one new survey. Of course it does vary depending on what your profile is, and what surveys they feel you match.

At the start of doing surveys I kind of neglected this survey site. I’m happy I am starting to complete these. It only takes 5000 points to reach cashout, and generally the surveys I have received are around 1500 points. I have also just this week received an email from Synovate stating that their surveys are going to start being worth double what they were. That is a big bonus! Two surveys and you will be ready for cashout!

I stopped getting surveys about three months ago without any notice. I then tried to cash out some of the rewards points I’d saved up. I’ve been waiting about two months now for that check to get past the “Pending” status. Customer support has resulted in there finding whatever way possible to circumvent the answer.

I HAVE NOT BEEN A MEMBER FOR VERY LONG, BUT HAVE FOUND THAT THEIR SURVEYS ARE BOTH INTERESTING AND NOT TOO LONG . THE POINTS AWARDED ARE VERY AMPLE. I HOPE TO REMAIN A MEMBER FOR MANY YEARS.

It seems as though you will receive surveys which they have no intention of giving out the points for. I have only been doing them for a couple of months but have already had 2 instances where I went through a lengthy survey only to be told I did not qualify. Most sites determine this in a few minutes. Last night I spent 40 minutes on a survey which was to last 50 minutes and was at 84% completion when they decided I didn’t qualify. Looks to me like they got the info they needed without having to pay out points.
