Anyone heard of or have any experience with recently joined them and am getting quite a few surveys, but I want to know if they are legit.

Anyone heard of or have any experience with My View (http://www.yesfree.com/clicktracker/c.php?k=1.424.54). I recently joined them and am getting quite a few surveys, but I want to know if they are legit.

I can't say if they pay or not because I haven't reached payout yet.
I have $23 approved and $7 pending.
You need $25 to get pay via paypal (only option).
You have to log in daily to check what surveys are available because they don't email them to you.
Only do the ones that pay you!!!

My View (http://www.yesfree.com/clicktracker/c.php?k=1.424.54)is another one of my favorites. It’s not open to everyone, if you try to join, they will tell you it’s by invitation only. They send 2 to 3 surveys a week and they are very well laid out. You’ll know in the beginning if you are disqualified or not. They pay with My View dollars, credited to your Paypal account when you reach $25. I have reached the payout amount once since January and received payment. It's by invitation only, but here is the link My View (http://www.yesfree.com/clicktracker/c.php?k=1.424.54)

I first joined MyView (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42) about one year ago. I took two paid suveys from them last year. But I did something I would regret. I Unsubscribe from MyView (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42) after it look to long for them to give me my reward. At that time I was a rookie at online surveys and didn't know nothing about how many survey companies are out there.

After I got MyView (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42) rewards about three months later, I attempted to sign up with MyView but wasn't able to because it's by invite only. Well after I joined YourFreeSurveys, I started to get email from MyView. I was then asked to create a password from MyView Portal something that I didn't do when I first started taking survey with MyView.

MyView (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42) does pay but be prepared to wait from three months for you reward.

[maplaver]

MyView does pay but be prepared to wait from three months for you reward.

It takes a very long time for them to approve the payments of each survey you take :mad:

[panda44r2004]

I have been with MyView for a while now, but i can't really say that because it seems that i am not really with them (i know...i'll explain), even though i have called their "customer service" number, and explained to them that i can't access my account, and when i finish a survey, there always seems to be something wrong with their system that prevents me from getting paid (i get messages that say they are experiencing "technical difficulties" and that i should try again later), I've been trying & trying for weeks now, but still can't get these issues resolved. Due to that fact, i have stopped taking their surveys, but i would really like for it to be cleared up, since i get quite a few survey invites through e-mail every week. The big questions here are, do i actually have an account with them?...and...if i have been accruing rewards with them, how do i access my account to get paid?
Seems like a way for them to be getting my opinion(s) without having to pay for it. e.g, a waste of my time.
Has anyone else had any problems with them?

[schneiderman]

Mine have been the same way. I finish them and cant access my total. Anybody have a good experience with them?

[eddieMX07]

I also experience a time that I could not access my account. I send them an email to their Customer Service (customerservice@myview.com) on1/18/08 that said the following:

Having trouble logging in

I have recently attempted to log in to Myview Portal with my username "eddieMX07" and password. But after I clicked the log in button, this message appears "oops. We can't find that username. Give it another shot, would you." At first I thought I forgot my password so I requested a link to change my password. I then attempted to log in using the new password I created, but the same message appeared. I changed my password one more time hoping that this would solve the problem. But still the same thing appears. Please help me solve this problem so I can check my account for new survey opportunities.


Thank you for your help and for making a great survey website!!

They respond the same day with this email:

Portal Glitch

You can't access your earning when you visit MyView (http://portal.myview.com/). You to visit MyView Reward Center (http://rewards.myview.com/4380/mc/rewards.aspx) and then enter your email and a Confirmation ID. After that you can view all the rewards you earned and that are pending.

MyView (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42) is an ok site but this Portal Glitch and other technical problems while attempting to access a survey and after completing a survey are what make this survey panel somewhat annoying.

[maplaver]

I checked my rewards today and I had $30 approved and $2 pending so I requested payment ($25 required to cashout).
I'll let you know when I receive it in my paypal account.
I'm very happy :D

[DAMO36]

I know the sessions do time out on this site but if i put my username and password in manually i have no problems. I'm quite happy with MyView though and i get a lot of survey invitations each week.

I requested payment on June 18.
On July 1st I pressed the "PAY ME" button again because for some reason it appeared again but with $27 balance instead of $30, which worried me a little.

And just now, I received the paypal payment confirmation email:

"Site Systems just sent you money with PayPal.

Site Systems is a Verified buyer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Payment Details

Amount: $30.00 USD

Transaction ID: xxx

Subject: Here is your MyView Payment

Note: You have requested payment of your MyView Dollars earned through your participation in MyView surveys."


:p YAY... I'M SO HAPPY :p

[kathym]

I have been with them since Nov '07. Their payout system changed with the new year. Now you need to accumulate $25.00 which is not that hard to do. They have many paying surveys. As for the timeliness of paying, it seems okay. I requested payment thru paypall 4-7 and received it 4-29. The only problem I've had is that some of their surveys by PSB the graphics don't appear. So you qualify then the question asks you to identify the image but the image is not there.

[maplaver]

I've been trying to fill out the BASIC PROFILER under PERSONALITY SURVEYS for a couple of weeks, but everytime I click on the link, I go to a BLANK page and nothing happens.
What can I do?
I have written TWICE to their customer support and have gotten no answer, not even an automatic one :mad:

"Personality Surveys

Basic Profiler Earn 1 MyView Dollar! Tell us more about yourself and your interests. Remember, the more we know about you, the better we are at providing you with more appropriate surveys, so you get more chances to earn rewards."

[eddieMX07]

About two weeks ago I changed MyView current email to Yahoo. Since them I have not received any email invites to my Yahoo inbox. I sent them two emails to their customer service but they have yet to respond back. Today I logged in to MyView account so I could change my email back to hotmail but this message appeared "We're sorry for the inconvenience but the email address you have entered is present on our "do not email" list."

The only reason I want to change my email again is because I am NOT receiving any survey invites in my Yahoo email. I guess I have to log in to my account if I want to take a paid survey.

[eddieMX07]

Yesterday I logged in to the Rewards section of MyView to see if I had enough to redeem some cah. I currently have $41 in my account with $1 pending. Tomorrow I will click the "Pay Me" button.

Maplaver I know how you feel. I have send them two emails about the problem I described above and they have not answered me. I prefer to get email invites over logging in and clicking on a link, but I guess I have to do that every time I want to take a MyView Survey because they aren't sending me emails on my Yahoo! account.

I clicked the Pay Me button last week for $45 in my MyView account and it still hasn't been forwarded to my Pay Pal account as of yet. I will give them the benefit of the doubt for now seeming it was a short week because of the July 4th weekend. If the amount hasn't been transferred tomorrow i will get in contact with their customer services, or at least attempt to contact them.

Anyone heard of or have any experience with My View (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42). I recently joined them and am getting quite a few surveys, but I want to know if they are legit.

I joined My View a couple of years ago and have received a few $$ for the surveys I qualified for with the money going to my PayPal account. My only complaint is that I guess I'm not what they're looking for as I don't seem to qualify for very many. You also have to be fast as once they have their quota for that particular survey, you're not able to take it. If people aren't getting emails from them, check your junk or spam folders regularly and keep your profile updated.

Suggestions on My view anyone?


Hi,

I am having some trouble with My view, i know it is a legitimate survey site, but they are a real pain

I am not able to see how much amount i have in my account, even though i have completed many surveys, and am sure to have earned atleast $15. Apparently i have to enter the survey no to view whether it has been credited to my account. Do, they really expect us to keep a record of every survey we complete, with the survey no's?

I tried to get the list sent to my Email, with the option provided on the site, but i never get a response.

Has anyone been able to redeem from them? If so, can u give any suggestions, on what to do?

Hi jash18,

I´m quite new to MyView, so I can´t tell you anything about redemption yet, but I do remember that the option to have them send the list with the numbers of taken surveys worked for me. Are you sure you used the email address you provided after the actual surveys (for the PayPal credit) because that is the one you need for the list and it could be different than the one you use to sign in to the MyView site.

Also it doesn´t matter which of your survey numbers you use, you always get to a complete overview of all your incentives and their current status. So (if you don´t get the list sending to work properly) it is sufficient if you just note the number of the next survey you take and always just use this one number (I have stored one of my first numbers in my browser, so I just have to double-click on the data field and it gets automatically filled in).

I had

the same problem at first. You click on the my rewards section and nothing. But there is a link to click that says click here to see rewards. Click that and it takes you to a page with a bunch of links. Click "rewards statements" and you will go to a page for your ID and one of the confirmation numbers of one of the surveys you took. I was lucky because I didn't trust them yet and have been tracking and writing down each survey number and such . Just plug one in and it will give you the whole rundown.

It made me like that site a whole lot more. You do need $25 to cash out so we will see what happens when I reach that.

Hope that helped.

I agree MyView can be a real pain although i am getting many surveys from them these days. I do have to say their customer service isn't great and i have also tried to contact them a few times without getting any response. After saying all that, the key with MyView is a whole lot of patience. Your rewards will eventually be redeemed and i have mine go automatically into my pay-pal account. I like to log into the site at least once a day and check up to make sure that all the surveys i've taken are in my survey history. To save you time all you need to do is write down 1 survey ID from one of your completed surveys and use that each time to check up on your rewards. You don't have to make a record of every survey you have taken...just the one will do.....try to make sure it's a recent one though.

I finally got to see my amount in My view

Hi,

Firstly thanks to all of you who have replied. I finally managed to see the amount pending in My view. I did a survey a few days back, and this time i noted down the confirmation no. I tried to access the rewards section earlier, but seemed like some updates were being made.

But today i finally logged into my account, and when i entered the confirmation no, i saw that i had $19 pending. I had though that i had only $10 or less. But it's nnice to know that i have $19, even though it's still in pending. I should be able to reach $25 soon :)

[maplaver]

has any one ever received cash from them as they take a lot of time to approave thepending paymeny

Yes, I was paid $30 ;)

[DAMO36]

Yes, I was paid $30 ;)

Yep i have received a payment from them too. I'm currently waiting for a $40 payment which i ordered about two weeks ago. They do take a long time with the pending payments but you do get it eventually.
:)

[DAMO36]

I'm very happy with MyView at the moment. Yesterday i got the $45 paypal payment i've been waiting for and i already have another $30 in my account pending payment. This survey site is probably in my top two earners right now,
:)

[eddieMX07]

I have never had surveys from them. How do you get it right? Advice please.:mad:

If you want to join MyView, then I suggest you click this link (http://www.yourfreesurveys.com/links.php?id=42). YourFreeSurveys sometimes sends you MyView surveys. Thats how I joined MyView for the second time.

[eddieMX07]

So where are all the surveys?

Once you create a MyView account, you will start receiving surveys that are sometimes paid and others are not. You can also log in to your account with your username and password to access all available surveys.

[tidyclean]

So where are all the surveys?

I've only joined this site since 6/23 and so far I have $27 in my Acct. Of course that's with all the sign-in updates also. Even if it takes some time to get my money, that's alright with me. At least I know it's coming and to do the surveys alot of times I just log into the site and they are there waiting for me. They also do send me emails too.

This is also another favorite site of mine. Oh, last night I had surveys rolling in from all over. There was a total of $28 in surveys offered. Of course I couldn't get to all of them in time and when I did I was only able to qualify for two of them and I still made $7 so that made me happy. :p

[nupur]

same with me i also have $24 approved and $2 pending.
You need $25 to get pay via paypal
You have to log in daily to check what surveys are available because they don't email them to us.
soooo lets see what happen

[tidyclean]

Oh, they Do Send me Emails for the surveys. But I make it a policy of mine to also log into the sites several times during the day to get a Jump Ahead of them before they have a chance to send them. I've been having real good luck in the short time I've been signed up to them, so I'm really liking My View Site. :p

[taesurvey1]

Definitely one of my favorite sites, although I had a bit of a tiff with customer service. :confused:

[tidyclean]

has anybody actually got paid from these guys?

As of right now I have $27 in my acct - but I haven't been joined very long to this site. As of yesterday $16 went to approved and still waiting on the $11. When I have enough to cash out I will post back and let everyone know how long it took to receive my money. Like I said before, I don't mind somewhat of a wait as long as I know for sure that I'm going to receive it. I really don't think that there will be any problem with that.

[maplaver]

has anybody actually got paid from these guys?

I got paid $30 by paypal and I posted it here :p

[LapisLee]

I am now signed up with MyView and completed about a dozen surveys today $1 to $3 each; although, two of them gave me an error message and customer support replied that the surveys were not working when I took them and that I could not retake them. How long does it take for the incentives to be approved. I took two surveys on July 31 that have yet to be approved.

This is the second $1 profiler Survey that I have taken today that I received this error message and was not allowed to retake the survey:

The Survey System Web Error: 5 Illegal function call
with Data File F:\INETPUB\WWWROOT\BEVERAGEPROFILER.DAT
Check that SSWEB95.EXE has read/write permission to the Data Path folder.

Dear MyView Research Panel Participant,

Thank you for alerting us to the issue with your survey. The survey you attempted was not working correctly when you accessed it. Unfortunately, we are unable to extend the offer for you to retry that survey at this time. All we can suggestion is to try another survey at www.myview.com. Our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. We look forward to your continued participation.

Sincerely,
MyView Customer Service

[jash18]

Hi Lee,

You are worrying about surveys that you did on July 31st, that haven't been approved ? I have done surveys in june that still haven't been approved. What should i do? :o

I have $40 in my My view account, but only $19 is approved. :(

[maplaver]

If you read the PAST POSTS you will see the complaints about how long it takes for MYVIEW to approve a payment. It takes labout 1-3 months to go from pending to approved. It sucks :mad:

[eddieMX07]

Seems like MyView is having a lot of problems today. I logged onto their site earlier and took a $1 survey on the environment. I completed the survey but didn't get credit for it.

That has happend to me a lot of times when then send me email invites to take their surveys. I always completed the survey and when it asked to enter your PayPal email, their was some kind of error where there is only a blank page. Sometimes I'm not even redirected to enter my email. I think this is caused my poor survey programming. MyView and OTX surveys are two of the worst sites even it comes to survey programming.

[maplaver]

Seems like MyView is having a lot of problems today. I logged onto their site earlier and took a $1 survey on the environment. I completed the survey but didn't get credit for it.

I also had a problem with a survey yesterday and I emailed their customer service and today I got this lame answer:

Dear Participant,

Our apologies for any technical difficulties you have encountered. Unfortunately due to our strict security, you are not able to go back into the previous survey.

However, you can find additional surveys on the MyView "Member Portal" located at: www.myview.com.

I didn't have to have any invite to join.. I just went to the web site and they accepted me right then.. I was accepted on 7/31 and as of today already have $18.00 in the account. Not to mention that I have been getting emails from them when there is a paid survey with the link to the survey...I don't know how long it takes them to send or process the payouts yet..since I of course haven't reached that amount yet..but it is by pay-pal so it shouldn't take all that long to receive...

Gaininghope

PS.. When you do get to take a survey, at the very end you will need to keep track of the curvey number, so write it down somewhere.. you will have to use that number to log in and check your balance

[truefire]

I first started MyView by filling out surveys and using my yahoo account as the paypal address for them, but this was before I noticed the confirmation numbers. Then, with no idea how to access them, I requested the numbers be emailed to me, but no matter how many requests I made, and despite the address I requested them to be sent to, the confirmation number requests never arrived. So, I was forced to use my secondary address (gmail) for that account from then on out. About $7 lost until I hit the 25$ mark on my gmail. The irony is that after I complete the profiles, I'd have $18 on my gmail address. >.>

Of course, this is without factoring in how long it's going to take for approval. If you use this site and your paypal primary address is yahoo, I recommend either changing it to gmail or making a gmail address as a secondary account. This site already gets enough complaints as is (and they still haven't responded to my email about why nothing from them gets sent to yahoo).

Regardless, provided that they are still legit like when maplaver got paid, I will stick with them. As of now, I've had more consistent qualifications with them than anyone else.

[maplaver]

I have $16 in pending money and $0 in approved.

[tidyclean]

I have $16 in pending money and $0 in approved.

Ok - I have $16 Approved and $20 Pending. I was just looking it over and have a question. :confused: In about 3 mos. I plan on changing my internet so my email is going to be changing. It sounds like this could cause a problem with my payout. I would have to be changing my email address then and I wonder how that is going to work for my Paypal payout because they said an email will be sent to the email address that was filled out when I completed the survey. By the time they get everything processed and such I won't even have the same email address anymore. Any Suggestions what I should do before this all changes over :confused: Maybe from now on when I do any surveys I might use one of my other email addresses instead that is listed on my Paypal email acct - what's your thoughts about this??

[eddieMX07]

I just finished taking a $2 MyView survey that paid $2. It was a magazine survey that asked for my opinion on three potential covers of three hot chicks. :D

This was the first My Survey I have completed in OVER a month because I don't receive survey invites in my email. I should have NEVER changed my email address. :( & :mad:

I wouldn't change the email until I get paid because you don't need to have access to your email to get paid to paypal (your email is just your login id and you receive the payment notification which you don't need if you log in a check every now and then) or to do surveys with MYVIEW (I never receive emails from them [idk why] so I log in DAILY to see what paid surveys are available).

Hope this helps ;)

[truefire]

Right now, I'm waiting for confirmation that I got accepted into a $100 online focus group. I qualified, but it's first-come, first-serve, so that is still pending. Still, that was a nice surprise. I'm currently at $21 pending otherwise.

I'm not sure if i may have qualified for the same $100 online focus group last night thru My View. I completed the initial screener but at the very end of the survey when it takes you back to the MyView page it told me i didn't qualify for the survey so i'm slightly confused if i completed this screener successfully or not.
I'm quite happy with My View though because i'm getting plenty of surveys from them and i have $50 going into my PayPal next week.

[eddieMX07]

I recently started to receive MyView surveys after I changed my email address. I changed my email sometime after June 13 so I wouldn't have to enter my email every time I click on a survey link.

Since this Tuesday, I have already received more than six email survey invites. I prefer to receive email survey invites because the email has information I use to keep track of surveys I'm invited to. Now, I'm having a hard time identifying the unique Survey ID some panels give to their surveys. If any knows how to spot the survey ID for MyView surveys, then please do tell?

[vwilliams55]

I have been a member since december of last year and have yet to reach the payment limit. They may be legit but extremely slow. My points are always pending. I would not reccomend just yet.:eek:

[eddieMX07]

On Friday I took a My View survey that was a perfect example of bad survey programming. The survey was hosted by Gongos and paid $2. Before I started the survey I was told I have to installed a program called Silverlight, a program like Adobe Flash. I already had this program in installed but it wasn't the newest version. I decided to installed it since this was the newest version and was needed to complete this survey. I was then asked to closed the browser.

After I installed the program, I had to answer a question to verify the program is running properly. I was unable to seen a picture so I had no choice but to guess an answer or tell them I couldn't seen the image. Either way I was disqualified from this survey because I saw a white screen instead of the picture. This is perfect of a survey that had bad survey programming.

Either way I was disqualified from this survey because I saw a white screen instead of the picture. This is perfect of a survey that had bad survey programming.

Yes - we have to be Careful of those surveys !! I had one where when they asked if I could see the picture - I could. But then as the survey continued there was times when I couldn't see the whole video. It made it really hard to give an answer - but I did the best I could. I wasn't disqualified at the time but now for my payout I see I was Denied because of it. They said I didn't give the correct answers for someone knowing what the product was about but there was nothing I could do at the time - that next time this happens I'm just going to quit the survey because I know I won't get paid for it anyway and I don't want to be giving false answers and get booted off of their site. :(

I also cashed out for $32 this week-end with $7 still pending. Now I just have to wait and see how long it takes to receive my money...

[truefire]

Well, I just finished that online group panel tonight for the $100 opportunity. I really enjoyed the two hours I spent online. We discussed a potential new site pertaining to credit cards and a lot of the concept as well as the feedback was really impressive. I'm looking forward to what they do, and I'm sure you guys will as well.

Surprisingly, MyView is the site I have to thank for this opportunity.

[tidyclean]

I received my money in (5) days !! Ya Hoo !! :p

[truefire]

WOW, Congrats truefire.. You have earned twice what I made for participating in a week long GfK survey. It's really impressive how much a market research firm is willing to pay survey takers for their biased or unbiased opinion.

I'm just curious, how hosted this interactive session, Invoke or Itracks? The $100 will be added to your MyView account right? I guess your going to cash out soon. Anyway congrats on completing that long but worthwhile survey.

It was Iresearch. Not sure if that's affiliated with the two panels you mentioned above. As for when I receive the $100, it will be in the next 3-4 weeks. I'm not sure if they'll be mailing it out separately, or if it will come through my MyView account for PayPal transfer. I'd really like it to be the latter, though, but as long as it gets to me, I have no complaints.

I have never heard of iResearch (http://www.iresearch.com/). I'm sure this is independent market research firm and is not affiliated with Invoke or iTracks. I guess there are 100s of companies that run interactive surveys.

[eddieMX07]

Here is something you should remember when taking a MyView survey:

Make sure you fill out all the your profile information before clicking the "continue" button. If you forget to fill out some information you will not be redirected to survey. You will then have to enter the missing information to be redirected to a page that said the survey link has already been used. Basically, don't click the continue button until all the question have been answered or you will not be able to participate in the survey.

[maplaver]

I noticed that My View have a whole host of Personality Surveys you can complete for $1 each.......the trouble is.....when i click on them it takes me to a blank page....anyone else having the same problems as me???:confused:

I am!!! And I have written to customer service MONTHS ago and nothing has happened :mad:

Thanks for sharing that.....i've been a member of My View for a long time now and i guess i'm fortunate that i haven't had any problems with them. I try to take my time with each survey they send and be honest....that's all i can do. I'm probably making more money with this company than any other one out there right now so hopefully i'll continue to get the surveys as well as the payments promised...

[LapisLee]

why FRAUD? did you make things up? or did them too fast?
How much could I lie on three basic profiles? I have only been too fast on one OTX survey that was 20 minutes and I finished in 12 because I take the exact same survey every month from them. I have no idea since they never replied to my email that I sent to their support. Most reputable survey companies will return your email within a few days. Another oddity is that I actually took 12 surveys with MyView and was only credited for three and one of those was still pending until it was marked as fraud.

[maplaver]

They have never ever replied one of my several emails :mad:

[NorthernBelle]

I had to call Corporate 3 times before I finally spoke w/a live person

[truefire]

As far as I'm aware, it seems MyView's gotten a little faster at processing surveys for approval. When i first joined, I heard a lot of people talking about how it could take at least 3 months before they approved you. I've been part of MyView since the beginning of August. My latest approved survey was submitted August 23rd.

I was starting to feel a bit depressed about the 3-month wait I'd heard about and stopped doing their surveys as frequently as I used to, but then I logged in on the 6th and stumbled upon 21 dollars worth of my surveys having been approved and 3 still pending. I'm a little more optimistic about them now, so I'm going to go ahead and rank them a little higher than I initially did. They're not quite surveyspot in my mind yet, but their paypal option more than makes up for that. Wish me luck in reaching payout (one dollar away -_-).

[tidyclean]

This site is making me so mad. :( I've done several surveys that don't give me the confirmation code when I'm done or the option to enter my paypal info. I've tried emailing them several times and always get the same generated response which isn't even answering my question correctly. I hate that I just can't pick up a phone and talk to someone here. You go around and around and seem to get no where, and then pretty soon I just give up. Does anyone have a phone number to contact My View ??

[LapisLee]

I have given up on MyView because they never credited me for all of the surveys that I completed, then removed my completed surveys for fraud and finally, never returned my emails asking why they removed all of my earnings. I don't have time for bogus survey companys, even if others have gotten paid.

If they do not ask you for your paypal email then that means the survey you just completed did NOT offer a paid reward. Something when they send me emails, it says they survey willl pay 1 or 2 MyView Dollars. After I completed the survey I find out that the survey was just a sweepstake entry. They ask for your name, email address, and phone number. I guess that was just kind of mistake in the email. This mistake is very misleading and is occurring more often than before.

I totally Agree with you here Lee.. I've cashed out once for $32 and I now have $20 in my acct. again. When I get paid for the next $25, I'm done with them. I don't respect a Survey Site that doesn't give you a phone no. to contact and then the generated replys are rediculous. So please Beware - I also was Denied Pay for (2) of my surveys.

OK Eddie - This survey did offer a Paid Reward. I did complete it totally for the $2 and when the survey ended it said to click here. It didn't take me to the Confirmation Page as usual so I could fill in the required info to receive my Payout or anything else stating it was a sweepstake.

The following is the Survey Invite - What do you make of it ??


A New Survey Opportunity from MyView!

New Beverage Survey - Earn 2 MyView Dollars

We would like to invite you to take part in our new survey about the beverages you consume. The restaurant industry is interested in your feedback regarding the beverages you order in your favorite restaurants. Your thoughts and feedback are highly regarded and will be used to improve future offerings in your favorite dining establishments.

Please Click Here to see if you qualify. If you qualify, we will add 2 MyView Dollars to your MyView Account Balance for completing this 5 minute survey.

Now if you are saying this is a Sweepstake - Then they are Bogus at telling me that I'm going to Receive $2 to complete it.

[eddieMX07]

didn't take me to the Confirmation Page as usual so I could fill in the required info to receive my Payout or anything else stating it was a sweepstake.

Well that's just wrong. I mean it did not redirect you to a MyView server. It probably was a paid survey but for me somethings they send me survey invitations that say it's paid then after I completed I'm send to the sweepstakes page. I guess there is no concrete way to know if survey is paid or not less they state the reward in actual survey.

[tidyclean]

Well that's just wrong. I mean it did not redirect you to a MyView server ??

No, it didn't... It just said Click Here - I did that and it didn't take me to My View Server. That is why I'm trying to contact them and I just keep getting this generated answer which doesn't have anything to do with what I'm asking them. That's why I just wish I could call them and get things cleared up.

[tidyclean]

Ok - I got another reply back from them just now - This is what they had to say about it this time:


Dear MyView Panelist,

Thank you for alerting us to the issue with your survey. The survey you attempted was not working correctly when you accessed it. Unfortunately, we are unable to extend the offer for you to take that survey at this time. All we can suggestion is to try another survey at www.myview.com.

Our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. We look forward to your continued participation.

Sincerely,
MyView Customer Service


Still - What A Crock !! :( I seem to be getting more and more of this from alot of sites. It seems they get the info they need but they aren't willing to compensate for what they say they will pay us...

[LapisLee]

At least you got a reply. I completed about 10 or 12 surveys initially and during the first week or so when they was a deluge of surveys saying 1 or 2 MyView dollars for various surveys and they only credited me with three for $3 and one pending for $1 before deleting them all for fraud without ever replying to my email asking why. I figured I had done 10 surveys for either $1 or $2 each, but it turned out they were only $4 and I never even got paid for those.

That is typical response since you can only access an My View survey once regardles if you clicked on the link in the email or on the homepage. This is the same thing as Test Spin surveys and sometimes Opinion Outpost. I would let this upset you because they will be many surveys that will be added. But it understandable if you are mad after this occurs more than once especially if it happens back to back.

[tidyclean]

I'm really not all that mad about the survey, it's just the way that they handled it. The response they give, I received many times and I just come to expect them telling me that. I just feel it's not right and they have all our info - you would think they surely could deal with it a little differently.

Thanks for the info on the phone no. Eddie and the email. I might just have to check into this a little further. ;)

I find I am getting the same experience especially since I have 20 dollars. I don't qualify so I won't reach the 25 dollar limit to cash out.

Hang in there vwilliams55 - I'm sure you will get your surveys to be able to cash out. It's just frustrating when we know we almost got enough and then we have to hassle with these other problems that come up with taking the surveys. This isn't one of my best survey sites and lately they only been paying me $1.00 to do their surveys, which do seem to be kind of lengthy. :cool: Also I don't like the length of time it takes for them to approve our surveys and then to get paid. There are many more survey sites that get my top attention instead of My View...

[eddieMX07]

Yesterday I redeemed $50 from MyView. This will be the first time I redeem cash using their new MV Dollar system which basically means you have to wait until you have $25 to cash out. Hopefully they will not take long to deposit my reward.

Keep us informed. Inquiring minds want to know!

Today I received a $50 Paypal deposit from Site Systems (My View). I requested this payment on 11/2 so it took them 12 days for me to receive my payment. That is not bad considering not a lot of survey sites offer PayPal.

Be glad that you did not take or qualify for the $45. It was of course a product test with 4 different surveys and the fourth survey messed up. I emailed them four different times, got one automated response. No $45. I'm very upset. It wasn't a dollar survey -FOURTY FIVE DOLLARS.

Anyway I just thought that I would let you know. Did anyone else have this problem?

I also Qualified for this survey and had problems with it - this is the email that I received from My View:

Dear My View Panelist,

Thank you for alerting us to this situation.

I apologize for the inconvenience and delay. Many panelists have been having issues with the Campbell's Soup study such as being unable to complete the third or fourth survey or having reward problems. We are trying very hard to come up with a fair solution. Usually, if a panelist gets closed out of a survey, there is nothing we can do. With a study like this, however, things are a little different. We are saving all correspondence from panelists until the survey ends in January. At that time, we hope to come to a fair solution. Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience and frustration. Thank you for your patience.

Sincerely,

MyView Panelist Services

That is a bad time for me because of very specific reasons so I don't think I will make it to this study. But I will try to make it with no problems...

[paddysmum]

Good luck, Eddie. Sounds cool.

I'm not too happy with MyView right now. I completed a $3.00 survey last night, and at the very end was told that my answers were fraudulent and that I would not receive my incentive. I'm not going to fight it because I've heard elsewhere that panelists that complain get dropped.

It takes a very long time for them to approve the payments of each survey you take :mad:

I am frustrated because of the wait. I finally got paid but it took forever it seemed. I liked it better when they paid you after each survey. Now, you have to reach a certain amount.

I have been waiting for a $32 Pay-Pal payment for what seems like an eternity.....it must be approaching about 6 or 7 weeks now. I am getting very frustrated with My View, not only because it takes ages to get paid, but also because their customer service is TERRIBLE!!....i have sent them a couple of e-mails regarding my pending payment and have never received a reply from them.
Is there anyone else going through the same frustrations as i am???

I totally understand what you are going through - I've also been there with that. And yes, it does take that long to get paid. I don't like it either but there is not much I can do about it. I've cashed out twice from them and everytime I get to that point I always say I'm going to unsubscribe but then I start getting a ton of surveys from them so I continue on.

Actually though I've found that their customer service has been better for me. They changed my email for me because I have a new one now and combined all my payments into one. Also they paid me $10 for the Campbells Soup Home Test Product that I couldn't complete because of my email changing. Right now - I'm still up in the air :rolleyes: about My View - but I feel that they are slowly improving. ;)

I have been stuck at 25 dollars for 2 months and counting. They really do not want me to get to 25 dollars. There is 4 dollars pending. I can't believe they are just handing out hundreds of dollars to some people and others get nothing. That is not a bad site , just unfair.:confused:

[LisaJac]

I have 24 dollars approved, and they have stopped sending surveys (although I see and take paid MyView surveys on many other sites). I've been stuck at 24 dollars for about six months, and I gather if I ever do get to 25 it will take another six months to be paid. I'm holding out for my $25, and quitting them after that.

[LapisLee]

I'm still stuck at $23 so I am going to make a more concerted effort to get those last $2 in order to cash out.

[vwilliams55]

I finally got paid, but I was stuck a long time and paypal took two months. Well at least I got paid.

[tidyclean]

:( When I log into My View I'm unable to do any further surveys that are listed or check my info, or rewards or go into my account. Is anyone else also having this problem?? I did email My View but as yet I still haven't gotten a response back from them.

Could anyone please go to My View and log-in their acct. to see if they are having the same problem, because if that is the case then it just must be something happening on their site :confused:

Thanks !! ;)

[tidyclean]

Thanks Maplaver - You see on Saturday I reinstalled Windows XP on my computer. I took everything off and had to start over so it's now like a new computer. So maybe My View is detecting something with my computer. Boy, what a shame because I can't log into my rewards or accts. and I think I have $25 in there and now I won't be able to cash out. My sister said she will try to log in from her computer with my info to see if she can get into my acct., and if she can then it still would seem weird that I can't. I still didn't get a reply back from them yet, I hate when I have to wait so long for their response. I was able to do a survey they sent me by email but not able to check my acct info or reward information after it was completed. Everytime I log in and I can log in then, when I click on doing a survey or try to check my info it kicks me back out to log in again. Very Strange !!

[LisaJac]

I finally cashed out and it took less than two weeks to receive payment; I was pleasantly surprised. Since then, however, I have been unable to sign in; the portal is unable to recognize my username. I know it is correct, since it is saved in my browser. I contacted customer service, and their replies have been completely clueless. Nevertheless, I was polite, but they have stopped answering my mails.

LisaJac, I think if you wait a few days everything just might get back to working order on it's own. My problem has cleared up after several days too and I'm now able to log in and check my acct. and do surveys. Customer Service was very nice and tried to help me the best way possible, I get the feeling it's just some kind of glitch on their end. At least you have contacted them and hopefully in a few days it will all be working fine again.

[DAMO36]

I used to love MyView when i first registered and they sent me plenty of surveys and i cashed out twice in a very short period of time. Since then the e-mails have stopped but i am still able to log in to their site and take surveys. Problem is i am only able to take about 1 paid survey a week. Most of their surveys now are sweepstake only. I haven't been able to cash out in a few months and i still need about $5 in order to cash out again.

DAMO36 - Maybe it could be a good idea to try to email them about not receiving surveys. I receive surveys quite often and this past month I've made $17 just from taking surveys that were sent to me.

I will e-mail them again.....i have e-mailed them in the past but received no reply....but it's worth to try again....nothing to lose, right?....

[LapisLee]

After being initially booted from the MyView site for 'fraudulent activity', which was never explained to me and resulted in the loss of $4, I rejoined and have earned $26 with $2 still pending so far this year. I am anxiously awaiting the day when I can cash out my first $25. I do not have high hopes for this site in the long run due to frequent complaints from other members.

[tidyclean]

I know My View can have their problems at times, but surveys seem to have picked up for me and I do get a response back from them shortly after I contact them. As of 8/20/08 I've made $122 from them.

[LisaJac]

I am still unable to log in, as they don't recognize my username. I'll e-mail them again, but I am not optimistic.

I am STILL stuck at $24 since May with $4 pending. MyView deliberately avoids crediting you with the last few dollars to prolong the amount of time that you have to wait before you can cash out. They also make you wait after you finally redeem your $25 and many people have been disqualified for alleged fraudulent activity. They rarely return emails.

Here is how MyView responds to any technical glitches with their surveys:

"Strict security" is right, Lee. But I'm sure they felt they had to do something about professional survey takers. Too bad....

I get responses from their customer service weeks after a disputed survey closed, so they can say it's too late for them to address the problem.

Since I only signed up with them when I started to do surveys at the end of April - I was at first very happy with them, In a few weeks I accumulated $13 and it took a few weeks for them to take those out of pending. But since then not a single invitation from them and everytime I sign on to their site to see what is available - all they seem to offer now are surveys for sweepstake entries. Not sure I will ever make it now to the cash out level since they seem to have stopped (or at least slowed down) on surveys for cash incentives. Has anyone had a better experience with MyView lately ? Thanks, STEVE

[LapisLee]

After being rejected initially for 'fraudulent activity', which was never addressed in response to several emails to customer service and which resulted in the loss of $4, I rejoined earlier this year and have earned $24 with $9 'pending' since early May. I think I was very wise not give this survey site priority over more legitimate sites.

i rarely receive emails from them but the trick is to log in DAILY and do their paid surveys... that is what i do and i have cashed out several times. good luck :)

[LisaJac]

For more than a month now I have been unable to log in, because it doesn't recognize my username. When I reset my password it indicates that the username I'm signing in with is correct. I sent mail to customer service, but the fellow who replied, Dimitar, was unable to help me; he just encouraged me to reset my password. I get the impression he is not very familiar with database software (this is clearly a database issue.) I waited a couple of weeks, and sent mail to customer service again; no response. About six weeks ago I was actually able to redeem a reward on this site for the first time.

[A2JC4life]

I think they're a pain in the rear. I never seem to qualify for anything, after re-entering a lot of information they ought to already have on hand. Then, if I want to be entered into the sweepstakes, I have re-enter a bunch MORE information that they should already have. It's a complete headache to log into their site, and then the only way to access information about any rewards I might have earned (after a number of clicks, because the information isn't where it ought to be), is to have the confirmation number from a survey that has been completed for compensation.

[tuckster]

When I joined my view last year, it was the best one out there. But since Novemeber 2008 they have let me down. I had a problem with a survey (but I was not the only one) concerning a trial product. After each product trial you had a 10 minute survey. No big deal - but on the last one of six. the survey messed up. No $50 for the 50 minute to hour on the surveys and then of course trying the products. They ended up giving everyone $10 - wasn't that nice of them. So big deal they just used the first 5 surveys and saved $40 on each one of us. Anyway to make a long story short, now I'm stuck on $21, payout at $25. They quit sending me emails in March. Now I have to sign into website to take surveys. Then the ones on the site were all sweepstakes entries. And to further complicate things, now I cannot sign in to the website. I have no hope I getting my $21. I have sent six emails to them and have received the same automated reply --that they are sorry for any inconvenience and were checking into the matter. Oh yeah, they are really checking. So after all of this I believe that they are just a bunch of losers.

[tidyclean]

;)I know I had my problems with them too, but of lately they answer right away and everything has been taken care of nicely. I just cashed out for $42 last week and I already been paid for it too. I'm not giving up on them yet.

[LisaJac]

A2JC: I agree with you about the difficulty of navigating the site. What is up with that coy little message (when you attempt to check rewards) "These things take time"? Two years and counting? Every other survey site seems to have nailed the problem. I think the people at MyView are not competent technically, and their poor customer service compounds the problem. Finally I filed a complaint with Survey Police, and that did elicit a reply from customer service:

Dear Lisa,

My name is Anna and I work at MyView. Rest assure that we have not terminated your membership. We are currently experiencing a techincal glitch that is causing not only you but several other members to not be able to login to their accounts. Our tech team is currently looking into the situation and working in providing access to all members experiencing this situation.

Could you please send an email to the customer service team at MyView so they can add you to the updates list? They will inform members when the issue is fully resolved.

Sincerely,
MyView Panelist Services

I am not holding my breath. I suspect that this is a shoestring operation.

27. MyView $33 (Joined: 2009-03-01) (PayPal) ($26 rec’d)

After initially being diaqualified from MyView for ‘fraudulent activity’, which was never adequately explained to me, I am now warming up to this site. MyView sends frequent surveys from $1 to $5, most of which I qualify for if I click on them within 24 hours. While many have complained about how long it takes for them to approve pending credits, they pay via PayPal in a timely manner once you reach their relatively high $25 cashout threshold and request your rewards. They also enter you into their monthly sweepstakes, which has a Grand Prize of $500 and ten $50 prizes.

[stevew]

Since I posted a few weeks ago about my experiences with MyView - things have improved for me too. I have received more invites for paying surveys again. Also, earlier this week - I had completed a survey and right at the end before I got a confirmation number - something went wrong. So I thought I was out the $3.00 reward - but I sent an email to them anyway - and this was the response I got back a little while ago. I am happy and surprised !

Dear MyView Member,

After a careful review of your case, we have decided to add the reward in
question to your MyView Reward Center account through our monthly Manual
Rewards Program.

How does the Manual Rewards Program work?

Manual rewards are processed the first week of every month and are
available in the MyView Reward Center by the second week of the month. If
you are receiving this email after the 5th day of the month, you will
receive the reward next month.

We will send another email when reward has been processed and is available
in your account.

I got the same e-mail a few days ago as well. I have noticed they are sending me a few more surveys as of late....most of the surveys are sweepstakes however....

[thebeachlife@peoplepc.com]

Remember how proud I was getting a response from these idiots about investigating my problem, well I'm still waiting. I have heard nothing regarding why I can't log into my acct. The concussion grenade failed, I must now employ KILLER DRONES.

[vwilliams55]

I never received that email. I guess I did not make much money yet so they won't acknowledge me.:confused:

[eddieMX07]

Yesterday I received a $10 Dollar survey. This was the first $10 survey i received from them but unfortunetly I did not qualifiy becuase it was a business survey.

I do like their new survey center look and how it requires you to log in every time to take a survey...

I'm not exactly enjoying the new myview portal feature. If you are disinterested in a particular survey, there's no way to opt out of it (closing out of the survey will leave you with a resume function the next time you're on your profile page), so the only way to filter through the list of surveys is to either automatically disqualify or wait until the survey you don't want to do is no longer available, which means you'll be locked out of looking for more interesting surveys for an indefinite amount of time. If you had a way to decline the survey in front of you, that would make MyView portal so much more accommodating.

Finally someone I agree with. I don't care for it either. Also every second you have to sign on. What is that all about.
