reviews and complaints

8/9/2016 - until last night everything was fine. I have been taking surveys for them since may with no problems, then this morning when I tried to log in I get a message "account frozen due to data concerns"? What does it means? What data?. I am the only user of the computer where I take the surveys. They provide an email address to get more info I did send message about 3 hrs ago... No response yet... Is this a scam or what?

I have been doing surveys for over a year now, and this is the first time I have had my account frozen. They told me it was frozen after I tried to cash out 11 dollars. I take surveys on several different sites and this is the first time I have ever been lock out of my account. After reading all the different people who have had this happen I believe there should be a class action lawsuit against opinion outpost for breach of contract. We all completed the surveys and were awarded the amount to our accounts so we are owed that money.

Horrible site, I was a member with opinion outpost for over a year and a half, then they froze my account. I had over 15.00 in it at the time, and had done close to 100.00 worth of surveys. I started having trouble with their surveys about June and kept telling them that the surveys were redirecting and not crediting. They credited me for about half of what I did, then canceled my account. There were no reasons to do so, I didn't have more than one account, I didn't do ssi surveys for anyone but them. I had done a few for another site, but hardly any compared to what wasn't crediting. If anyone has had experience with ssi surveys, you know that you cannot even start a survey if you had done it before. I kept getting an error screen AFTER I finished the survey saying I was either flagged for data concerns, or someone else had done this survey before, blah blah blah, but if I thought there was a mistake contact them. You bet I contacted them, not at first because i didn't know what was going on, then when it kept happening more and more I contacted them. I wasn't given credit for a 55 point survey=5.50, I wrote them and they said I only spent a few minutes on it. so I wrote them back and told them details of the survey I wouldn't know unless I did, so they had to give me the money. Within a day they froze my account. I am turning them into the BBB, and anyone else that has had these problems I urge you to do the same. They are on my black list, all they have shown is how they have tried to scam me and I'm sure they would do it to others.

This is a legitimate survey site. If you do surveys online, don't waste your time with opinion outpost. What they have done to me is really hard to believe. I have been a member of them for over a year. Recently I have been having problems, don't know if it is with the or ssi who they go through, but a lot of my surveys are recording and I am not being credited. The only other survey site I do surveys for is toluna, so I am not doing the same surveys, I repeatedly told them of the errors, some I never even asked about. I have let at least 100 points (10.00) go. When I took a 55-point survey and wasn't credited I had it. They credited me after much complaining, and then a couple of days later I did about half a dozen surveys one night, 4 were not credited. By this time I was afraid if I complained too much my member ship would be canceled. Several others I talked to had this done, and I read about many others. I took a survey for gongos research for them and it seems that it didn't credit, I asked about it, and wondered why all the problems, I also mentioned several the night before did this, but I let it go. I did 3 more surveys and tried to cash out, bam - my membership was canceled, and the 14.80 I worked hard to make, was taken from me, I couldn't even cash out. I am contacting the bbb about them, also several other forums and survey police, but I don't think they'll pay me. If you do online surveys, save your time and don't join opinion outpost, they will make sure to scam you out of point earned.

I have completed online surveys with this company for many years. They do offer lots of paid surveys, and they do pay quickly. The problem is, there have been many occasions when I complete the survey, reach the end, "Thank you" page, and then am redirected back to the Opinion Outpost site to receive credit, only to be told the survey has been closed. This happened early this morning (about 12:20 am), with a $7.50 survey. I spent a lot of time completing this survey, answering the questions carefully and honestly, only to be told that I would not receive the payment I was promised.
