I joined this website and they send me so many e-mails that I end up deleting them up because they annoy me! Does it really pay well? Is it very time consuming?

Read the emails. If they're sweepstakes or prize draws, I tend to just DELETE but there's some that will be a trial offer and a survey to follow and these normally pay well if you do qualify (one I did for $4) and into your PayPal account

With the one I did, it was on the same day, but may vary I guess.. Going from my experience with other survey sites, some wait till the maximum number of respondents required for the survey has been reached or the survey has ended before you get your points, others are instant on your completion.
Another good survey site to sign up to is Lightspeed Panel and if you ever come across a banner for PineCone Research, sign up! I have some more info on my blog

Sweet! Thanks for responding. How long does it take for them to put it in your PayPal account?

Sounds interesting. I never had much luck with survey sites though. What payment options do they offer? Paypal too?

I can send you the link for the website, if you'd like. I honestly don't know about the payment since I really haven't participated too much but I will keep you updated!

I love this site. I receive about 2-3 e-mails a day and on average the surveys are about 15-20 minutes long. $3.00 is the average I have received from most surveys, but I have also received $10.00 and even $15.00 before. Since December I have cashed out about $130.00, which as a student is a wonderful amount of extra money. I usually request a check bi-weekly and the checks arrive within 2 weeks of requesting them.
I have read some of the previous reviews and others have mentioned that they do not qualify for many surveys. I do not qualify for all the survey either, but I do qualify for a good share of them.
I have recommended this site to a few friends and they love it to. You have to be patient though, because initially I did not receive too many surveys, but it seems that the more you take, the more you start to receive invitations. Also, it takes 4-6 weeks sometimes for the cash reward to show up on your account.

Do you know if they pay through PayPal as well, or just check? And is there a minimum payout? Thank you for sharing this information!

Survey spot is one of my favorite survey panels. I've made over $50 with them. Yes, they do send a ton of surveys, about half of them are for sweepstakes and the other half pay cash. I don't usually do the surveys for only the sweeps entries because I don't think I have a real chance at winning the sweeps. I rather get paid a couple dollars for my time. And if I don't qualify for the survey, then it's cool to get a chance to win a sweeps. Overall, this is a good survey site. I ignored their emails at first but once you start participating in their surveys, they send you more paying ones.

Thank you for letting me know about your success! Yes, I always see that they offer nice amounts of cash with some surveys but I just never got into it! I won't be deleting anymore from not on though, thanks!
