EDIT... even more lies!!!!! Read their response below. Logged in same thing happened. B*llsh*it artists. So I get an invitation to join, awesome, I'll try it out. You get X amount of points for a survey and X amount gets you a gift card. Doesn't list anywhere how much the gc is for so I answer surveys honestly to try and redeem a gc to see if it's actually worth my time. I take 20 mins of my time answering questions honestly only to kicked out of that one (no points earned) and start another one. This goes on and on until I finally get a chance to redeem a gc, again I have no idea how much it's for just want to see if it makes sense to keep doing. I put in my phone number just to be told it's not a valid #. Um it is literally my phone #. I contact customer service to see what is up...they'll get back to me. I try to make sure my profile has my accurate # and I'm logged out, my password doesn't work. I try to reset numerous times can't get in no email link sent to reset no communication whatsoever until a couple days and customer service said you violated Clint's terms and conditions, we removed your account, you can't redeem rewards and the is non reversible. Like what in the actual heck?!?! I log in answer surveys and when I try to redeem my earned award you just kick me out! STAY AWAY PEOPLE, don't waste your time.

Not gonna lie. They suck. If they dont like the answers you give for their surveys you get kicked off the survey midway through and get no credit for the work you put in. Apparently just now my account was cancelled because "the quality of your answers were considered poor". Ummmm, you want my honesty but my answers dont line up with what you want to hear. Heheh ok. Amd any credit I had for the work I did put in previously is gone forever.

First off, they give you something for free. Its magazines. And you have to pay for them. Second, the website keeps telling me to login even though I am logged in and my info shows up. Third, when you redeem points, they never send you anything in the timeframe shown. Its been two weeks and I am still waiting on an Amazon gift card. Its a small one so I didn't waste any time. Fourth, Customer service doesn't reply to inquires at all other than an automatic reply. Seems like a scam to mine your data.

If they would have told me up front about magazine subscriptions then I would not have given them my information. I guess they know and that's why they use a "$100 in savings" reward bait. I was shopping for clothes for crying out loud, not magazines! I should have known better and I'm probably going to spend the next few weeks unsubscribing from many unwanted solicitations. I think my personal information is more valuable than their magazine subscriptions which makes this an unfair trade practice in my opinion.

Nowhere on the website does it tell you what a point is equal to. They will tell you, but you have to email them and ask what the points are worth. So my bad for not checking first. After probably (9) hours completing (27) surveys, plus an additional (7-8) hours starting numerous surveys to be told either the survey was full or I did not qualify for the survey, and finally earing (10,000) points, I was finally awarded my compensation. It was a $10.00 gift card. So, just the surveys I did complete, I was paid $1.10 an hour or (.37) cents per survey. A (300) point survey may take (10-15) minutes. That (10-15) minutes would earn you (.003) cents. Woohoo! Unless you simply enjoy taking surveys and are not interested in earning any compensation, go on to the next survey service.

Bizarre represented that I would get $ 100 worth of rewards. They offered magazine subscriptions. Well, ok.. But then they wanted my credit card to add in a $ 2 processing fee per magazine. Free? Really ? No thank youv

This site works fine for awhile but then they will lock your account for unknown reasons and not respond to emails. If you use the site, cash out as often as you can so you don't lose a bunch of points when they decide you are no longer worthy for whatever reason.

Can NOT post negative review for checks.com. Bizrate has all positive reviews for them, impossible. Bizrate is a scam site.
