I have joined a few survey sites and wanted to hear from others how legit they actually are. I joined cashcrate which I have $21.75 pending and $5.75 confirmed for May. Which tickles me that I finally have confirmed money. I have been waiting for about a week now for the $21.75 to be confirmed and still no luck yet. Vindale Research has good paying surveys. I have yet even get a survey from Valued Opinions and joined almost 2 week ago. But before I do some of the more serious offers, which means giving credit card numbers out, I want to know that I am seriously going to get paid for it. This will also help others on the same quest as me. Thanks, fellow mylotters :D

There are a number of ways to check the validity of online Co's, First and foremost....never give out any personal information until the company in question has been throughly checked out and you are comfortable with the information. The Co. should have their contact info available on their web site, call their phone number for verification, also call information for their listing, one co. that I use often for a rating is www.SurveyPolice.com they have an extensive list of survey co's with ratings and a description of why they choose those rating. Most survey Co's are included in their arsenal and they will check out a co for you if it is not already rated with them. Most legit survey Co's pay by PayPal or someother online banking Co. I have NEVER heard of any survey Co asking for your credit card info unless you are buying something from them...they are paying you.. that money goes into an account or they will send you a check when you reach your payout amount. I hope this info has been of some help to you and others who question the honesty and validity of any Co that you are considering signing up with. Have a great evening :)

I've not had much luck with Vindale. Cash crate is okay but doesn't pay as much as sites like treasure trooper and they have less free offers. Plus, Treasure Trooper pays by Paypal or check. And for their credit card offers they pay more.
I'm not a fan of cash crate.. they deleted my account and never paid me, but I've heard of others getting paid. I've never heard of Treasure Trooper doing anything like that. I've been paid about $1700 from Treasure Trooper altogether.

I've been a member of Valued Opinions for quite some time.I've actually cashed out twice with them.
I personally wouldn't do trial offers that require you to put you're credit card number.It's too risky in my opinion.If you do make sure you keep track of them and when to cancel the trial.Otherwise you can end paying a lot of money for something free.
If you want to try a couple of others like Cashcrate,try Quickrewards and Treasure Trooper.

I quit Vindale early on because they wanted me to buy stuff. Cash Crate, I'm always bounced out. If you want some good survey sites, add me as a friend. I make no money from giving your the links but we're not allowed to post money making links here.

Well, I have been using Valued Opinions for over a month and I haven't received hardly any surveys from them either. If you're into doing offers, I would highly recommend SWATcash. They have a ton of free offers and most pay $1+. They have alot of credit card offers too (I stick to the freebies) and they pay up to $20. You can find the link on my profile. I definately recommend checking it out. It's a very legit site does pay.

I do surveys from Pinecone and Opinion Place. I used to do mysurvey.com, but it takes forever to rack up anything. I never tried the offer type sites, but maybe I should!
