Schade wie unfassbar stark sich dieses Panel verschlechtert hat. Oft gibt es für erfolgreich abgeschlossene Umfragen gar keine Vergütung mehr, sondern nur die Meldung "Leider erfüllen Sie nicht die Voraussetzungen für diese Studie. Versuchen Sie eine andere Umfrage; vielleicht eignen Sie sich beim nächsten Mal besser!". Ich habe auch schon diverse Produkte zum testen nach Hause geschickt bekommen, die Folgeumfrage lässt sich NIE erfolgreich abschliessen, entsprechend gibt es auch dort keine Vergütung, obwohl man dafür verhältnismäßig viel Zeit investiert...

Terrible. You annswer many questions takng 20 mins of your time, write a small essay about a trip abroad, then 25 mins into the survey, they say, thank you, but youre not a good fit for this survey and all youve done is waste your time which is terrible because the reason we do this is BECAUSE we dont have time during the day. Absolutely terrible, no money here. you wont qualify for any survey.

I can only reiterate what other one star reviews have been saying. After having been a member for many years, when I recommended this panel to others, I would now suggest to not touch it with a bargepole. They did great surveys, but now, after they asked you to complete profile after profile - so they have a lot of data on you -, which should make sure you are only offered surveys that fit your profile, you never qualify, or after spending a long time you are told at the end you don't qualify. And then they go and threaten you with expulsion from the panel if you don't complete surveys. Nasty. They went from the best to the worst.

Die Abmeldung sowie die Beantragung der Datenlöschung über das Kontaktformular sind unnötig undurchsichtig. Nach dem Absenden des Formulars erhält man zunächst eine E-Mail mit der Aufforderung, zusätzliche Informationen bereitzustellen. Beantwortet man diese E-Mail, erhält man jedoch lediglich eine automatische Nachricht, dass Antworten auf diese E-Mail nicht gelesen werden. Dadurch ist unklar, wie die angeforderten Informationen tatsächlich übermittelt werden sollen. Der Prozess wirkt widersprüchlich und erschwert die Ausübung des Rechts auf Datenlöschung. Ich bitte darum, den Ablauf klarer zu gestalten und eine funktionierende Möglichkeit zur Kommunikation bereitzustellen.

I immediately abandoned this survey program because they wanted my time. You get email telling you you're invited to a PAID survey, only to waste 15 minutes of your time to be told, in the end, that you don't qualify for the actual survey. They apparently cannot be bothered to actually filter your qualifications ahead of time. I am 60 but no one should be judging that because I am indeed an exception. I'm not some church lady who dresses conservatively and doesn't know anything about beauty products. I'm absolutely not going to help an organization who lumps me into a stereotype. And I'm definitely not going to waste time qualifying for a survey instead of actually taking one as promised, just to pull you in. That's not honest research, it's republican bullshit.

This is such a junk company. They offered $5 for signup. Never have me that. They also never loaded 1 single survey, when I asked them about it, they deactivated my account and said that I lied on a survey. Save yourself the time and stay away from this company.

I took part in two product evalution surveys where I was sent products to try and had to give feedback. When I completed the first one and spent 20 minutes on it, giving detailed feedback, I got to the end and it said I didn't qualify despite testing the product. I thought this was because I didn't like the product and was honest, but then I got another product evalution survey. Again, I did the survey and yet again, at the end it said I didn't qualify. What, for two products I qualified to test? It made no sense. I contacted Pinecone customer service and explained and was rewarded for the first but I am still waiting to get my reward from the second survey. Don't think the companies who enlist Pinecone to get people to test their products will be happy that testers are treated so badly. Hoping this is some kind of bug.

Don't waste your time. This site is awful.
