* Surveys will vary in length, but will typically take less than 15 or 20 minutes to onlineplete.

Here are a few onlinements from readers when I posted this previously:

I have been with this site for over a year and it is great..i have been able to get over $100 in Amazon and Macy’s gift cards in the time. I am currently saving up for Macy’s gift cards to use for my dd to do back to school shopping.

I’ve been a member of Valued Opinions for about three years now, and it’s my FAVORITE! Most of the surveys are only $1-$2, but there are tons of opportunities to take surveys with them. I’m not sure exactly how much I’ve earned since joining, but lately, I’ve been making around $4/week. I’ve also had several opportunities to test products through them, which is always a lot of fun.

I have been with valued opinions for 1 1/2 years. I earn 20 dollars every month or every other month. I earned a night at a marriott with 4. Over a 100 dollars with macys. I even had one survey that paid 50 dollars alone. I love it.

I was recently accepted to Pinecone Research (another survey group) and have heard nothing back from them. Is there something I am supposed to do to get the ball rolling?

I had to wait for a little while when I first signed up too (in March) but since then it’s been great. I get at least 2 surveys a month.

I do pinecone research too. It is only a few times a month depending on your profile. I am 9 months pregnant with my 5th child of all different ages…and my husband is a small business owner so I get lots of surveys from them.

Hip2Save sent out an e-mail about Pinecone Research and that they were accepting applications. That’s how I got it in. To date, I have not received any surveys to onlineplete. 🙁

I’m very happy with Valued Opinions! I get a lot of survey offers and received a $20 Amazon gift card in very little time. The only (recent) problem that I have had is that I cannot access studies from my tablet, it’s not onlinepatible with their system. So until my desktop is fixed, it’s off to the library for me. Totally worth the effort.

I am in the same boat as you. I either don’t qualify or they have already met their quota

I have finally reached my first $20 but $6 of it has been pending for a week. Very frustrating

I receive at least 2 surveys every day from Valued Opinions. I fill them out but rarely qualify. I have taken surveys since March 2012 and have $16 in rewards and $9.50 pending.

Just redeemed my first $30. Happy with that but I should have more credit than that. Sometimes the pending credits that you have disappear! I’ve probably had about $15 in surveys just *poof!* while they were pending. I read another review about the onlinepany and it seems like I’m not the only one who has had this happen. If you take screen shots of your pending credit and email it to them if some should disappear, they’ll recredit you but I think it is a little weird that it disappears in the first place and that is a lot of effort to take surveys and then have the credit disappear. I wish they’d fix that problem. I don’t think you should have to babysit your credit to make sure it actually goes through.

I have been doing this since Feb 2012 and I have made $24.50 with little effort. I feel part of the secret is to accept the survey ASAP, you want to be quick before the number of participants in your gender, age group, etc fills out.

Some surveys seem a bit long and repetitive. Sometimes the requirement section takes a few mins and then you are denied, but if you have some free time in front of the onlineputer, its worth as a little extra.

valued opinions is not one of the better survey sites out there. could name about 10 that are better… pinecone is definitely one of them! hard to get into though for whatever reason.

How weird. It says I’m already registered, so I go to retrieve my password, and it says user not found! Oh well, I belong to enough other survey sites as it is and I can barely keep up!
