I've been part of the panel for around five years, and while my experience with them started off rewarding, fun, and reliable, the last two years have been awful.Before a recent update to the panel, I've tried taking countless surveys when receiving them via email or app, and 90% of the time—if not, 100%—I would start the surveys and answer a few questions before it ends with a "you're not qualified" page. Week after week I would attempt to do just one survey, but I had no luck at all. Also, I would like to add the company offers product testing as one of the benefits of the panel, but I hadn't received and reviewed a single product from them for the past two and a half years, regardless of requesting it as a survey question selection on multiple surveys. Lastly, surveys used to pay out 300 points, which equates to $3.00, but the last survey I've taken rewarded a dollar; I've researched why this is and found out that surveys started paying a dollar on all surveys. I took a break and have returned to the panel one last time after seeing its platform had been updated. While the platform looks neat and tidy with some improvements on layout, organization, and optimization, I've also noticed that surveys come with a guaranteed reward balance, and some read as 300 points. So over the past two weeks, I gave it another shot. I've taken two surveys so far, and both upon completion—regardless of answering everything truthfully and timely—said in the end that "I did not qualify—try another survey." Very frustrating. Every other survey—at least twenty of them so far—that I've been trying to work on these past two weeks keep saying "I do not qualify" and are removed from my dashboard. I'm not sure anymore; I feel like the platform and panel still struggle to offer opportunities for their survey takers. Even when they do, it's like a slap to the face each time when one sits on the computer and goes through a fifteen to twenty minute questionnaire with honest commitment—just to receive nothing in return.
