After I signed up it took a little bit to start receiving surveys but now I get one about every other day or so and they’re 50-150 points each! When you answer all the screener surveys in the beginning, you are awarded several entries into their $5,000 sweepstakes. You also get entries when you complete a survey as well. The quality of surveys has been good so far. I’ve only had one that I thought would never end. You get to give your opinon on what you thought of the survey at the end which I think is good. Overall, this panel is in my top three and I look forward to continuing with them.3/6/2010I've been a member for over 2 months now and will have cashed out 3 times for an earnings total of $40 so far. I choose to recieve cash via PayPal and its in my account in 7 days. Recently I got to participate in an interactive web-based "chat" style survey where you answer questions and interact with the panel members. It was neat! It lasted 75mins and I recieved the equivalent of over $10 for it which was reflected in my points in 2 days! Reaching the minimum cash out of 575pts ($5) and above is not hard at all with most surveys worth 75,125,150 & 300 points. JOIN THIS PANEL! You won't be disappointed! Original Post 1/8/2010

On this site you are given surveys which usually range between 150 and 300 points. A 150 point survey $1.30 and a 300 point survey is equal to $2.60. This may not seem like a lot but I receive many surveys a week and I have made very good money using this site. POSITIVES: There are many prizes this site offers. This includes payments by pay pal, amazon gift certificates, blu ray dvd's, regular dvd's, jewelry and many other items. The only item I have ever redeemed are pay pal payments. I have never had a problem receiving a payment. For paypal the minimum points needed to redeem are 575 points which equal $5.00. When there are new surveys available you will receive email invites at the email you use when you sign up. My completion rate is 60-70% and the sooner you attempt to complete the survey the better the chance you have at completing it. BONUS: As a bonus this site has also offered credit card studies regarding apr rates which payed 1000 points per credit card apr statement faxed in. This was a great chance to earn good money. NEGATIVE: The only negative I have is that the customer service is HORRIBLE. A few times I've had some technical issues involving surveys and wrote numerous emails to customer service. Out of 15 emails 1 only received 1 response and it didn't answer the original question I asked. OVERALL: I think this is a top notch site and if the customer service were a little decent I'd give it 5 stars. The frequency of surveys and the compensation is great and i strongly urge everyone to sign up.

LightSpeed $70 (575 = $5 cash out) (PayPal) (product tests) (Joined: 2008-03-02) ($70 rec'd)LightSpeed has been better than average for me since I joined nearly two years ago. I receive several weekly surveys. I have qualified for and completed 52 surveys, worth between 50 and 300 points each, since March 2, 2008. I am currently engaged in a nightly Pain Diary that pays 275 points per night for 14 days plus a 75 point bonus for completing all 14 nights.The $70 I have earned has been redeemed in the form of $20 worth of Amazon gift certificates and $50 in PayPal, but now I always receive PayPal after resolving a problem I had with them last summer. If your PayPal address is different than the address you receive your survey email invitations at, then they will not be able to send you funds via PayPal. I never received replies to my emails sent to Lauren@lightspeedresearch.com, but once I realized that all of their reward incentives are handled by Perks.com the problem was quickly resolved by emailing Lindsey Kight at: lkight@perks.com, who handles customer service for LightSpeed, Elite Opinion (the business arm of LightSpeed) and any other survey site that uses perk.com for their reward incentives.There is also a $5,000 Lightspeed Sweepstakes, which I fully intend on NOT winning, but someone wins it every three months and their pictures are posted here: http://us.lightspeedpanel.com/US/public/winners.us 24.

I totally enjoy this survey panel it happens to be my favorite panel ever. I get a handful of survey each and every week and i qualify for almost all of them. If i dont qualify they alway put my name into a sweepstakes drawing. It is very easy to gather up points, and the points add up quicker than any other site ive tried. I have already cashed in my points for $155 worth of amazon e-certificates, and a $5 paypal amount. Some surveys can take you just a few minutes and others up to 30 minutes but the points you receive in return are well worth your time and effort.You can choice what you want to turn your points in for, gift cards, e-cerificates(which when you redeem for these you almost immediately receive your code to plug into the site and you can add your amount to that site right away), merchandise, and you can even give to charity if youd like. I love this panel it is #1 in my opinion. If a problem ever arises all you have to do is contact the panel with an email and they'll get back to you in a timely manner as well. What more could one ask for. I love this survey panel and will continue to do surveys for them for as long as i can. I have been a member of lightspeed panel since before 2006.

I receive a few surveys a week and qualify for most of them. However, there have been times where i spend over 10 minutes on a survey only to find out that i didnt qualify for it, but even though i didnt qualify i still got entered into a sweepstakes. Most surveys i take have been really fun to complete, some are for me and some are for my children to take. I enjoy this survey panel as it is the best ive found yet. It is very easy to rack up points and you can do so fairly quickly. You get to turn in your points for giftcards, paypal cash, merchandise,ect. I have earned $100 in amazon gift cards and $20 in paypal so far. Also this panel has found another way to keep their panel members happy by making the redeem amount lower. You used to have to have at least $5 worth of points to redeem and now i can redeem my points if i have only at least $1 worth of points. I have always received my redeemed items in a timely manner as well. This survey panel is a all around great site to be part of. I make sure i complete all my surveys from this panel first before i go onto my others. I have been a member of LightSpeed Panel since 2007.

I've earned 8 rewards, and I've only been a member since 8/1/09. I receive surveys for me and my child. They are easy to answer, but a few are too long.Sometimes, I can spend 10-15 minutes on a survey before finding out I don't qualify, but that is stated up front. A helpful thing about this site is the time of the survey is also given up front, so you can skip them if they are too long.In my experience, I've earned points and rewards faster on this site than any other. They don't waste your time like other survey sites, and they frequently send surveys. Just be honest about yourself, and you will receive many surveys. The only thing you invest is your time.

Most of the time my experience has been good; however, there are times that on a long survey (over 15-30 minutes), you get 10-15 minutes into spending your time on the survey, then you are suddenly told you do not qualify and will be entered into their monthly drawing. You are then dropped out of the survey.They need to find a better way of screening potential survey takers earlier in the process so they are not dropping people out after spending serious, valuable time on the survey.That is not only irratating, it wastes the time of the survey taker.

As a Canadian, I got about 6 surveys in total, and I am not amused by the lack of surveys for people who are not American. Though their surveys were very well done, and weren't too lengthy, the lack of inter-nationality is very upsetting, as I am unable to redeem anything, and I am losing my patience with LightSpeed. They should simply advertise as an American only and be done with it, as a 2-year veteran, I think I should be entitled to far more opportunities, regardless of my country. That's my experience with LightSpeed Consumer Panel. Back in 2007, I joined LightSpeed Consumer Panels.
