This is a survey site. Someone told me avt it. They offer surveys, and we get paid a few dollars for completing each. Surveys are quite easy to do, no real proble, you have to have a look at a few website, and give ur opinion abt those in 2-3 sentences, thats it. Here is what there FAQ's reads : 1. Is there any cost or membership fee to join? Membership is Free and you will not be required to pay any membership fees or any other expenses out of pocket. 2. How do I get Paid or How do you pay me? We currently have two Payment methods. Option 1 includes USPS and is free, which generally takes 4-6 weeks for delivery. Option 2 includes the use of Paypal, where a ($25) Expedited Service Charge is applied and taken directly from your account with us. Option 2 generally takes less than 5 Days. If you are ready for a payment just click the Redeem payment button and you will be presented with the above options. 3. When are new surveys posted? We periodically post new surveys. They are based on age, gender, etc. We normally E-mail when new surveys are available, but please check back regularly for new survey opportunities for some might not be E-mailed. 4. Is there a minimum payout requirement? Yes, currently the the cash out amount is set to $75. You will not be able to redeem until you have met this minimum amount. We offer some of the highest paying surveys, and offer a great referral system, so this amount should not be hard to reach. 5. Why has my Referral Count decreased? When we periodically delete Fraudulent accounts and they have your Referral tag on them, you will lose them as your referral. We know that you can not control what your referrals do, but this is why we recommend only referring your friends that you know will not commit fraudulent activities. 6. Why do I get paid for sharing my opinion and filling out surveys? Companies spend Billions of dollars a year trying to convince consumers that their products are the best and to buy their products and services. They achieve this by getting an understanding how people think and shop. Knowing this, companies are willing to pay you for your opinions. Overall your opinion could help the companies to upgrade their products and services. 7. If I have a busy schedule, will I have enough time to do this? One of the advantages of taking surveys online is that you can do them at your convenience. That is one of the best parts about surveys and why it's the easiest way for the average person to make some extra cash. You can do it at your own pace. If you have an extra 30 minutes in the morning before you go off to work, you can do a few surveys then. If you have any other spare time throughout the day you can do them and earn money. The great thing about this is that if you get busy with other things and don't have any time to do surveys for awhile, that is okay. You are can decide when you want to do them. You can do surveys when it's convenient for you. 8. Is my personal information secure? All personal information given to A.W.Surveys is strictly confidential and will not be shared with 3rd parties. We provide links to other websites within our website and your information will only be given to them if you yourself give them that information. 9. What are online surveys? Online surveys are used as a technique for gathering information for companies. They generally are a set of questions which require a participant to answer and then the information is eventually given back to company for reporting purposes. The companies are willing to pay a fee to the participant for their opinions and time. 10. How many surveys can I do in one day? Survey participation revolves around a couple of factors. We have no set limit on the number you can do a day, but there are only so many that are available on A.W.Surveys. If you qualify for the survey on our website you will be given a link to it, otherwise if no surveys available it will also notify you of that. We also show other survey sites so you can use other companies to amplify the number of survey offers you get. 11. Why will I get paid for reading emails? We currently do not offer this feature on our website, but many of the links to other survey sites we provide do offer this feature. This is just another way to get your opinion on their products and they will compensate you for it. 12. How long does it take to complete a survey? The length of time varies for each project, but we try to keep all of our projects as brief as possible. Most of our surveys range 5-10 minutes. Of course some will be marked longer and some shorter. Honelty, this site looks funny, to me - green color front page, eheh quite unprofessional and funny, but one of my online freinds said that he was paid by the site. Personally, i didnt undestood a few things there- what is that USPS, and y do they have to charge @25 papyla fees, as i havent heard anyone esle charging that amount. But as the surveys are easy to do, and its easy money, n registration is free also, so i thought abt giving it a try, I did 5-6 surveys in abt 15-20 mintues n they show my account at $ 26 already. Hope i get the $ 75 mark soon, and hope I they pay me, hehe. I dont think its bad to take a chance here, nothing to loose really, just a few minutes maximum, and if they pay, it will be $50 in ur pocket staright away,hehe So, what do you think, let me have your opinion, thanks.

I am confused...are we talking about aw surveys? They have scammed alot of us on the wahm.com board. I had my account almost up to $75 and it just disappeared. I stick with GPT sites (most are for US)...but they are ones that pay! If we are talking about AW surveys, the person is charging $25 if you you get paid through paypal...come on that is ridiculous. I am telling you...got to the wahm.com board and search for this...you will see all of us who got our accounts "lost". I just wanted to give the heads up! http://mymoneyallfree.blogspot.com/

i will be very surprised if you get paid....99% of these are scams of one sort or another...there are some genuine ones but they are US based but you only qualify to do a very few surveys per month so earnings are small....

I just joined this. I got the $6.00 credit for filling in the first welcome survey. I filled out 2 additional surveys that were supposed to be $4.00 each. At the end, both of them said check your new balance. I did. It's still only $6.00. I'll check again tomoroww, maybe the other ones take a day to get credited.

I know what survey site you are talking about. I completed the first site evaluation where you need to evaluate 2 websites for $6 and I did that but when I checked my account after it said $0. I also heard about people being paid for this and that is why I wanted to try it. I don't know though because they do look pretty unprofessional to me as well and since I did the $6 one I should have gotten credit for it. I am going to have to check it out again. :)

I already received a payment this week and I am almost at payout again. It was free to sign so even if they take $25 out for Paypal payments-it's free money to me. This is not a scam, because you do get paid.

this info will help many, can u also take a screenshot of payment n let all of us know, that would help us a lot, thanks.

I went to the site and I tried it out. I made $26 just like you said, but I don't know if it's for real. The payout is $75 and they charge $25 if you choose to be paid through paypal, which is supposed to be free, so I don't really know. So far, this is the only site I've seen that charges you to use paypal. That in itself is kinda questionable. Have you tried asking them why they charge to use paypal for processing your earnings?

i too havent heard that before - that fees looks a bit too high, but then if they pay then all will be fine, as it didnt take much effort to make that money, isn't it ?

I don't know. I've always heard that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. That's a lot of money to pay for surverys compared to other sites. I would proably be leary.

I joined this site even though at first glance it doesn't seem legit. The $75 payout and the $25 paypal fee is a red flag to me. Someone told me they were paid by this site so I figured I'd try it. I couldn't even get to the websites I am supposed to be reviewing. Also, it doesn't make sense to get paid that much for a few sentence review. I've decided not to bother with it. Tons of people have good things to say about it but they are also trying to make referral commissions. It smells like a scam to me.

Paid surveys wouldn't be bad if there wasn't a pay out minimum that is as high as $50-100. Also when you have been using these sites for a while you get fewer survey offers. It's all designed to make you work harder for less pay just like any other job on the market.

Well, when i sgined back a few days back, i got 5 surveys worht $ 26, so considering that, the payout is not that high at 75, plus we can make good money by referring it to freinds also.
