the surveys mostly are awful but then…

the surveys mostly are awful but then again u may get a product survey or a testing type where u get to try the items.i dont take this one very seriously but when i see them 920-384 survey titles u know its the product one with the blue. just simply do those. others for the most part will screen u outpinecone is one where u spend max 8 minutes on the survey. most of the time they screen you out earlythe links they send to ur email they most often u do not qualify. forward rocket..rocketlaunch major hit or miss. NEVER do JD power associates. they only want their algorithims and wont even waste their time on u. major hit or missesthis is one where u make 5-10 a month MAX. so take it with a grain of salt. karen knows me well

Absolutely awful

Absolutely awful! This company used to be brilliant, but now they do not reward you for answering their surveys! The Customer Service team are very dishonest when contacted too & make out that you have lied about participation! Steer well clear!!!!

SCAM

SCAM. Don't Trust this website , they Take all the Personal information and in the end they say you are Not eligible for the survey. Its highly questeniable. They should be BANNED in Germany under Datenschutze law. Don't Trust any Email from Katrin Schmidt.

Don't waste your valuable time

Gone downhill. Lots of emails that do take your time, just to be told you "don't qualify and goodbye". Then the even better part is the nasty emails from "Karen Scott" (who doesn't seem to exist) threatening to deactivate your eligibility if you don't participate more. Doesn't matter how many times you try to complete the surveys. Oh and rewards are a joke.

Waste of time, no payout

I’ve been with Pinecone for years, it been good but if there’s an issue they don’t care and have stopped replying. I was doing a survey, spent 15 mins on it and was on the final pages, before you’ve completed the survey and I was timed out. I questioned it as I should be rewarded for my time seeing as I was allowed to complete the entire survey about the product. I’ve sent several emails asking them to do the right thing and reward me for my time but they don’t care. Also in all the years I’ve been with then the reward has never increased, despite the fact that the cost of everything else has gone up, which no doubt includes the wages of the people at Pinecone and the amount they charge for the companies for the surveys, but this isn’t fed back to people actually completing the surveys.

Waiting for the class-action suit

It's overall a dysfunctional site. Pinecone also seems to engage in questionable tactics. Most surveys will collect a lot of information and at the end will tell you that you don't qualify for the survey and thus not be rewarded with any points. That seems illegal. Also surveys will get stuck often (S23U on 5G) and fail. It won't let you go back to the survey. Even if you find your "pending" surveys, it won't let you complete them. There are so many other survey sites out there that work great and let you earn reward points. Pinecone is NOT one of those. Steer clear.

It worked for a while

It worked for about a year, then points started to disappear, surveys gather lots of personal informations and redirects you to more - unrelated to the first - surveys, in which you give more personal informations. I know for sure that I “ qualified” for many, but ended up with “ sorry you don’t qualify “ after 10 minutes of giving more and more personal informations. One of the last fake surveys was an actual attempt at enrolling me in another survey company. I cannot fathom people asking “ is this legitimate? “ - after all many scammers engage in shady practices that are actually “legal” To be “ legitimate” doesn’t equate with trustworthiness

I used to like pinecone

I used to like pinecone. But now I get all these surveys and then they won't load and when I try a different browser automatically kicks me out and says I don't qualify. Then when I email them. They tell me well you don't always qualify for the ones we send you!?!! Like really? Then they say it's on my end why it's glitching and I have to do XYZ to get it to load. Which isn't true at all! Also you used to be able to cash out at 300 points now you have to have like 1000 points to cash out. And when you get kicked out or supposedly don't qualify then there's no way you can get those 1000 points to cash out. It's insane pinecone research has went down hill. Most of these places have!!
