I have a friend who purchased a list of companies who offer surveys. She says that none have replied to here request to do surveys.
Supposedly the companies that offer the list guarantee results but no response via email request for a refund.
Is doing surveys really legit. Perhaps she is considered to old for the surveys.
Yours very truly,

Hi Eckdall,
It is possible to make money doing surveys but you should not be paying anything to join such a company. For instance, all the survey companies listed on http://biz-whiz.com/article326.html are free to join.
I do not know of anyone who is earning a full time income doing surveys but I have earned a few dollars so I know it works.
Any one else having any experience with survey companies ?

I agree with Mufad that you should never pay for a list of survey companies (or any other list along these lines, for that matter).
There are definitely companies that pay you to take their surveys, but it's not something you're going to make any significant money with. It is, however, an easy way to make a few extra bucks here and there.
The company that I work with and recommend can be found here: http://www.mysurvey.com
You earn points for taking surveys and then the points can be redeemed for cash, merchandise, donated to a charity or you can buy raffle tickets. I've actually won one of their raffles, and I've turned in my points for cash and for merchandise. They are very prompt. I definitely recommend them.
I hope this helps! |

I think you guys have said it all...... One thing to remember about surveys is that you are not in control over when you are selected to take them.... as a result you may go months without taking one..... earning you no money.
I have also personally earned a little money with surveys, but it's not something you want to try to turn into a home business.

I have to agree with everyone here. You can earn a bit of money, but not much doing surveys. You can do better if you can get into a focus group, but you'll often have to drive to it, and they don't happen very often. I have links to a few survey companies on my site's job page with the note that most don't earn much, so I don't really consider it a job. People always seem to be asking about them, though. |

Everyone seems to be right on target about surveys I have taken a feww and earned a few dollars over the last three months. It seems that you have two chioces be all over the board when you sign up or stay very specific in you selection of categories. I also feel that you should not have to pay for a listing. Use several different search engines to find the free ones. Remember what Keith said you don't have control over who is picked.

Not for me. I signed up with a survey company that was supposedly reputable. They emailed me with numerous surveys, but after having filled them all out, I never got a penny. That was the second time I had tried surveys and nothing! |

I think the idea is to sign up with several different companies so that you have several that are sending you surveys. I have found that it goes in cycles. Sometimes I receive them regularly and sometimes not.
You could do surveys in addition to something else that interests you.
Good luck in your search!
