Directive Analytics

[LapisLee]

Sadly, I have only earned $1 from Directive Analytics (http://www.directiveanalytics.com/join_our_panel.php) since I joined on March 4, 2008, but your luck may be better. I like the fact that one DirectPoint equals one cent. I wonder why no one else thought of that system? There is a minimum of 500 DirectPoints or $5 to cash out, by check only. Here is some basic information to get you started.

Thank you for your interest in joining the Directive Analytics survey panel. By becoming a panelist you will be eligible to participate in online surveys where you have an opportunity to win cash and prizes. Each survey that you participate in will allow you to share your opinions about various products, services, advertisements, restaurants, travel destinations, and more.

There is no charge to become a member or to participate in any of our studies. In fact, you will be rewarded for each survey you qualify for and complete. Once you have joined our panel, we set up an online account for any incentives you earn. This account is maintained by our panel manager. For each survey you complete Directive Analytics will reward you with DirectPoints. The value of DirectPoints is fixed against the U.S. Dollar at one cent per DirectPoint (i.e., 10 DirectPoints = 10 cents, 100 DirectPoints = $1.00). The number of points offered for completing a survey will vary depending on the length and complexity of the survey as well as the target consumer group.

Once you reach 500 DirectPoints, you can redeem your balance at any time. You can request your balance or a check by sending an email to panel@directiveanalytics.com with the subject line "Balance Request" or "Check Request". When you request a check, please be sure to include your current mailing information in the email and allow 4-6 weeks for delivery. In the near future, you will be able to view your account balance or request a check directly from the panel website, using your login and password.

To become a panel member, we ask you to complete an online questionnaire which will tell us a little bit about yourself. This information will only be used so that we may send you surveys which fit your interests and your background. All of the information you provide us with will be completely confidential. Your answers are combined with other panel members' answers and reported in aggregate. Your name and address will never be used for sales or advertising purposes and will never be released to anyone outside of our company. The email address you provide is only used to send invitations to our latest surveys and your mailing address will only be used to send you payment for participating in our studies.

To get started, please click on the link at the bottom of the page and complete our panelist registration survey. This will take approximately 10 minutes of your time. By completing this questionnaire and sharing your opinions with us you will receive an incentive of $1. Thank you for your time, and we look forward to your opinions!

If you have any questions or technical difficulties please contact help@directiveanalytics.com and reference "panel sign up" in the subject line.

Yesterday I received my first Directive Analytics survey in my Yahoo! (http://www.search.yahoo.com) account, but I could not access it or complete it because of a problem. After I clicked on the link, I got this message:

Does anyone know how to unsubscribe from this panel? I have to account with Hotmail and Yahoo so I'm looking to delete my account with one of those emails. I don't want them to delete my accounts for having two account with them

Yeah, but how much have you made from them? I have only made $1 and they rank very low on my list.

[eddieMX07]

Does any one know if you can login to a Directive Analytics account to check how much points you have with them? So far DA has not been good to me since I'm still receive emails from them on hotmail after I attempted to unsubscribe.

I don't remember creating a password when I created a Directive Analytics acount. I have already sent them an email to support@directiveanalytics.com but I have yet to receive an respond. Did you email then to get your password? If so, how long did it take them to respond?

Within two to three months or so... :eek:

[eddieMX07]

What are you serious!! No wonder I'm still received emails from after I unsubscribe from their panel. I would have thought afte waiting that ago for a respond, you would have unsubscrided too.

[LapisLee]

Oh ok?! :rolleyes:

Anyway, How did you get your Directive Analytics password? If you email them, then how long did you have to wait for a respond?
I just made it up when I joined and they have sent me like three surveys in five months. They do not return emails as far as I know because I emailed them about something a month ago and they never replied.

Well that's not right.. When I created a Directive Anaytics account I was not asked to make a password. I was only asked for my name, email and mail address. As far as I know I did was NOT asked to create a password when I took my first survey with them.

[LapisLee]

I have unsubscribed to Directive Analytics. They are unresponsive and do not send enough email invitations to bother with.

[LapisLee]

In spite of unsubscribing months ago, Directive Analytics sent me two surveys this week for 300 points each, which I completed.

I tried to unsubscribe from this panel months ago because I have two Directive account with two email. I guess they ignored the email I sent them because i am still receiving receiving surveys on both emails... Recently I sent them another message telling to I want unsubscribed...

Just wondering, why would you complete a survey from a panel you unsubscribed.. I guess you don't have access to that website to check you points since unsubscrbed so why take the survey....? :confused:

[LapisLee]

I guess because when I signed on I noticed that I almost had enough points to cash out for $10 after taking two surveys.

[paddysmum]

I just noticed I have about 1600 points, but no password or login. I guess I need to email them to request my money.

Are they responsive?

Let's just say Customer Service is run by either Big Foot or the Loch Ness monster and we all know how available they are...

I just heard from Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster! I got two email replies from Directive Analytics: one confirming my check request message, and one with my login and password.

[maplaver]

I think Directive Analytics is one of the most confusing survey sites i have ever seen. I have taken quite a few surveys with them now and i'm sure i have a decent sized check i can redeem.....the problem is i don't know how to login to the site itself. I tried contacting them via e-mail but haven't received a reply as yet. Does anyone on here have a good idea where to login to this site??....and how does the point system work??....my most recent survey was for 250 points and i have no idea of how much that is worth....anyone who can help me that sure would be appreciated....
:confused:

[LapisLee]

Directive Analytics sends very few surveys, does not credit your account properly and is completely unresponsive when you email them. I completed this survey on February 6, 2009 and have not received the points or a reply to any of the three emails I sent. I have been stuck at 890 points since lats year in spite of completing three surveys this year.

Still waiting to hear back Directive Analytics about a survey I completed on February 6, 2009, the longest open survey I have taken.
