Top Ten Survey Site!
10. SurveySavvy $117 (2008-03-01) ($114 rec’d)
I joined SurveySavvy in March 2008 and I have qualfied for and taken 18 surveys for $117. This is enough to place them 10th on my list of my 25 best survey sites. You can expect to earn between $1 and $10 for each survey that you qualify for. They pay by check, not PayPal and the checks usually arrive in 4-6 weeks.
They have an excellent referral system, but I have never felt comfortable with referring friends to survey sites.
The surveys are interesting when I qualify for them and their customer service always resolves any disputed survey payments, which have popped up on occaision. Everyone needs to be a member of SurveySavvy, but they won’t be making hundreds of dollars a year unless they are in the IT field or really get active promoting and referring their friends to the site.
SurveySavvy can definitely be counted among the top 10 Survey Panels.
I have been a member of this Survey Panel from June, 2008 i.e. almost an year and a half and have so far earned $720 from them, which is definitely an amount to be envied for by other survey takers.
It was my great luck that in 2008 I got involed with a Monthly IT Project through this Panel, and took surveys for that Project each month for almost 9 months, which let me earn around $450 for the Project itself.
SurveySavvy send me surveys almost 1-2 times a week which may range from $1 to $40 or more. I also qualify for most of their surveys. It is a Survey panel which lets me earn consistently each month. Also their surveys are very interesting to take.
We can request for Payment at any time we have money in our account, which may be as little as $1. They pay us by check which reach us within 4-6 weeks.
I definitely recommend this Survey Panel to all eligible people to join this Legitimate Survey Panel and take the opportunity of earning cash for free.
Decent
SurveySavvy is a decent survey company. The quality of the survey is in general good, but I don’t get that many (1 – 2 per week). Qualifying for those is not easy: I qualify usually for 1 out of every 8 – 10 surveys, so for me it took a long time to build up a decent pay out. Also it takes more than a month for the check to arrive, which is rather long for survey companies.
A Very Good Site
I have been a member of Survey Savvy for about three years. I have been impressed with them on the quality of surveys and the amount offered per survey. Surveys pay from $1 to $10 but I just completed one for $20. One time I took a survey that led to a long time study that paid me a couple hunderd dollars. The only downside is the frequency of surveys. I receive about one survey a week. Member support has been very good. I certainly recommend them as a site to join!
Scam
what a scam…..Hey Doug take this survey for $3….yes a survey Iam rich…..15 min later after I do the whole survey on ice cream…..oh sorry Doug we have all the people we need or you dont qualify….WTF I just spent 15 min taking this Sh**. and your not going to pay me.
This is a scam
You take the survey and all they have to do is pop that screen up and there covered.
Where are my survey's
I have been with Survey Savvy for about 3 years and I might have done one survey with them, I can’t remember because it was soooo long ago that I did it.
I’m not sure if it’s because I live in Sydney Australia, but when I first joined Survey Savvy they said that was fine. People from Australia are more then welcome, I have filled all my profiles and everything is up-to-date. I really would not recommend Survey Savvy, the only good thing about this survey site is the fact that you can join. THAT’S IT!!!!
I like this site
I joined back in 2005.Honestly, I spent very little time doing surveys over the years because I dident have the free time. Now that I do have the time, I am glad to be a member of SurveySavvy. I like the idea that the company has been around since 1977.The fact that they pay in cash(via checks) only.
I get about 3-10 surveys a week, though I do not qualify for more than half,(alot of IT surveys.) it seems to work out ok. What I do qualify for tend to be worth more money,$2 and up.(I did one a few weeks ago for $15)
If you are tring to get rich by doing surveys,good luck. If you want some extra money from time to time,and belong to a few different sites,then you really should put this one on your list.
Never get a Survey
I’ve already being a member of survey savvy for 2 months and until now I never get a survey inviitation. I’ve already fill in their questions and fill in my profile but….nothing ! Im very disappointed…..
Original 5/2/2010
Yesterday I found they’ve only paid me for half of the fully completed surveys I’ve fiinished in the last 16 months! I e-mailed them yesterday and am still expecting a reply.
Keep track of every survey you completely finish!
If I don’t get my money, I’m most definitely filing a complaint with the BBB!
Update 5/10/2010
UPDATE: I was eventually paid for each survey I kept track of. Still, my advice remains the same. Keep your own records.
Where are the surveys?
I’ve been a member of surveysavvy for a little over 2 months now, hoping to make a little extra cash, but not the case. in 2 months I have been offered 6 surveys, non-of which I qualified for and have recieved nothing.
With such a low threshold - why not?
I can understand why many people would get frustrated with this panel – the amount of surveys sent out each month can swing dramatically from either just one or two all the way to twelve or more. Qualifying can be even worse – I’ve gone for months and never made any headway, only to suddenly pick up three invites right in a row with no problem. So I’ve added SurveySavvy to my “small but keep” list. For the surveys I disqualify for, I’m canceled out immediately; for the ones that I do qualify for, the time spent and the incentive offered is very fair. And since SurveySavvy offers pay-outs as soon as you reach $1 (very easy, since almost all of their surveys are for $1 or more), there’s no feeling of useless waiting.
I’ve made $5 now since joining six months ago…while not a lot in comparison to other panels, the time commitment on my side is very justified by the incentive offered, and I’m happy for the opportunity to make a few extra bucks with them!
Great to be a member with them, I have earned about $94.00 with the so far I get to so some surveys and sometimes not but I do love the site.
okay
seems like when i do get them, i do not qualify for most of them. the ones ido qualify for is minimal like 1 dollar with the most being 3 dollars. i have made $20 something dollars total. it would be nice if i could qualify for more with larger payouts.
Decent Site
The surveys are about various topics, which I like. The more surveys you do, the frequency increases. I generally get a survey once a week. Maybe it’s because I usually do surveys that pay at least $5 or more. Most surveys pay $1-$5. However, I do receive surveys that pay as much as $20 for 30 minutes of work. That’s excellent pay! The payment process takes 4-6 weeks, which I don’t like. But with so many members, I can understand the time it takes, so the wait is worth it. Also, the rewards you get for referrals are great, too! Half of my income from surveysavvy comes from referrals, and I also got $20 in misc. incentives, as they call it. Overall, good site.
Okay site
I like taking surveys with SurveySavvy, I’ve been a member for a while now. The surveys from SurveySavvy are interesting and when you complete a survey, the payment gets credited into your account in 4-6 weeks. SurveySavvy also has a referral program where you can invite your friends to join. I would recommend SurveySavvy to everyone who enjoys taking surveys,
