While not a frequent panel (I usually only receive one or two surveys a month, though I have heard of others receiving them a bit more), I almost always qualify, and the time is definitely well spent! HCD mainly focuses on pop culture, entertainment, and current politics; I find the survey topics to be much more interesting than most other companies.

Even though the surveys are infrequent, they send enough (and I qualify for enough), that after six months I’m still fast approaching the $10 pay-out. This panel is definitely worth the wait. The few surveys sent out are always adequately rewarded, so you have nothing to lose with this small panel.

HCD has pretty interesting surveys that pay a fair amount for the amount of time put in. However, they do not send out surveys too frequently (at most 1 or 2 per week) but I don’t remember ever being told that I don’t qualify for a survey. The only problem is that you need to take the survey pretty quickly as there are a limited amount of spots that get filled up. Overall I would definitely recommend this site.

For starters I have to say thank you to the staff here on Get Paid Surveys, as I have found this site to be very helpful in my ongoing search to find survey sites that are good.
I joined HCD just a few weeks ago and they did send me a survey right away. What I find to be pleasing with HCD is that the surveys are fun and not like most other sites. I finished my first one and felt like perhaps I was a part of something more important than just what I buy and what car I drive.
I would like to see more surveys come my way from them, but they are worth the wait, and worth the time.
If you are gathering a list of survey sites to belong to, give this one a try.

I have been a member of HCD Research Panel for two years having earned about $75. HCD is a little different from most survey panels in that they focus on current events and politics for the most part. Generally, you will be asked to view a video and offer your opinion. It can be a little repetitive in that you sometimes have to review the same video two and three times. Surveys pay from $1 to $5 (100 points equals $1) and you have to reach 1000 points before cashing out. I receive one survey a week, sometimes two or three, but you need to take the survey as soon as received because their quots fills quickly. Surveys take anywhere from a couple of minutes to as long as 20 minutes in my experience.

I joined this company 7-8 months ago and was anxious to get started. All the survey subjects were of great interest to me. I would receive 2-3 invitations weekly, however, for some reason the quotas were already filled and the survey was closed. I would never get past the log-in page. I became so discouraged that I opted-out last month. I may try subscribing again in a few momths. The reviews I’ve recently read are great which will help me try again.

I became a member of HCD Survey Panel since July, 2008 and have so far earned 11000 Points(equivalent to $110). They send us surveys through email, each ranging from 50 to 700 Points or more (100 Point = $1). Even if we get disqualified they give us 10 Points for our particiaption.

I receive at least 2-3 surveys from them a week, and I love taking their surveys and earning money. They send the payment through checks only. We can request for payment once we have accumulated 1000 Points ($10) in our account.

Also, they have great Customer Service, and if we face any problem while watching their videos or taking their surveys, they solve the problem very soon to our satisfaction, and most of the time award us the total points for that survey.

Most of their surveys are very easy to take, and consists of watching a video clip and answering few questions after that. Their surveys are mostly related to the Current Affairs of the Country and are very interesting to take.

Anybody over 18 is eligible to join the HCD Survey Panel. I would definitely recommend any eligible persons to join this Survey Panel, since this is a legitimate survey Panel and we get to earn real cash for free.

11. HCD $113.45 ($10 minimum pay out) (1000 = $10) (Joined: 2008-02-27) ($97.65 rec’d) ($15.80 req’d)

A very consistent earner with short surveys on political subjects and other current affairs, like the Presidential debates, Superbowl ads and American Idol surveys. Most surveys pay between 100 ($1) and 600 ($6) points and their points system is the easiest to remember because 1 point equals 1 cent. The minimum cash out is 1000 points or $10.

You will only receive about one survey per week at most, but they do credit you with 10 points even if you are disqualified. You should be able to cash out about once per month. Checks arrive in 6-8 weeks and, currently, HCD does not have PayPal.

Technical support and customer service is better than average and you can contact HCD through via email their website or by calling 1-888-404-9393
