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.

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?

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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 :)

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

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.

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...

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

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.

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 ;)

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.

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?

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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...

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.

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 -_-).

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 ??

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.

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

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.

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...

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

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. ;)

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

"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

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 :)

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.

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.

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.

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,

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.

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 have been receiving a lot more surveys from My View recently after a long time without getting any surveys from them. When i first joined this site i was getting about $15 a month from them but now i'm getting about $4 or $5 on average. Hoping to get more than that though because they are sending me more surveys direct to my mailbox than ever before.....

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.

Ok, who told MyView that we are unhappy with Paypal??? I'm not sure I'm going to like the new changes...
No more PayPal TM
You told us that you are not happy with PayPal, so we are making the shift to Prepaid Visa Cards. You will be issued a Virtual Prepaid Visa Card that is sent via email and valid for online purchases. If after receiving the Virtual Prepaid Visa Card, you would like to receive a Physical Prepaid Visa Card, just follow the directions included in the email and it will be sent via mail. Please allow an additional 5 -7 days for your Physical Prepaid Visa Card to be processed. Have the freedom to buy what you want, when you want, everywhere Visa is accepted.

Remember, you may redeem your rewards on or before December 27, 2009 for PayPal, or wait until the New Year for a Prepaid Visa Card.

I have been having problems too. I can log in but when I answer the first set of question it logs off. It does this automatically everytime. When I complained about it twice they said it was my computer. I know it is not because I don't have any problems with my computer otherwise. They did not seem to want to help. Now they stopped sending me surveys because it appears I am not trying to take them. That sucks. This did not happen with the old system.

Yes something like this happened to me before, say around six months ago. I had to email them several times and then say within a week it just worked again after I tried to log-in. So hopefully, somewhere down the line we will be able to get to our accts. again. As soon as I can get to my money I'm cashing out and then I'm done with My View. I just had too many hassles with them down the line.

I haven't experienced any technical problems with MyView. You might try deleting your temporary internet files and cookies. I resolved login problems with Opinion Outpost with those steps.

My guess is that the changeover is causing them some issues.
I'm also unable to log in....

Thanks YogaPrincess but I've tried everything possible that I could. I'm sure it's just a Change-Over process that is going on right now that is causing these log-in problems because I'm not the only one this is happening too.
I'll let you know when I'm able to log-in again though...;)

I was able to login tonight as well. I also took my first survey with them since they changed over to the new points system. Still not happy about Pay-Pal disappearing of their rewards though...

With so many people having problems, it definitely sounds like the website has technical problems with their changes. That is probably good news (although frustrating) since if everyone is having problems the site will work harder to get the issues resolved.

I was able to log into My View today. I have only 4200 point. I seldom qualify for their surveys so with 25000 needed for a gift card this is probably going to be one of the sites I drop. I lose the opportunity at Cash sites because by the time I get to them they are closed so I'm narrowing my membership. In other words, I hope to spend my time during surveys that pay cash and not waste so much time attempting to qualify and end up with nothing for my time.

I'm not going to Drop them but I'm not going to do anymore of their surveys. Just might come across a Product Test and I wouldn't want to lose out on that or some high paying survey or forum, etc... Don't care for the point system and I found out the other night as I Qualfied for an Opinion Outpost survey which was for $2.00 and it was a My View Survey. So I'd rather just do them when they pop-up elsewhere, where they are better paying and in the form that I like.
I did already redeem my $25 Visa Card at Amazon. com. It's somewhat of a hassle but Amazon worked with me and gave me an adjustment on the cost of my purchase just so I could use the card. You see you have to purchase Exactly $25 to use the card or less, otherwise they won't take it. That's Too Much Trouble for Me having this kind of Reward for all my Time and Effort into answering their surveys. Plus the My View Visa Card is only good for 4 months. Not Good !!!

Yeah myview lied about their rewards. They claimed to offer higher rewards once the new system arrived and that has not been the case. Its takes 35000 pts to get a 25 gift card and most of the invites the send out be for about 350 pts with the highest i've seen so far beeing 1,400.

I just completed a survey for 4200 points from My View....my math is terrible so i'm not sure how much that was worth in the old system. Before the 4200 point survey, which took me about 40 minutes, i completed a 350 point survey. 4500 points isn't too bad i guess. I don't think i'll be redeeming my points just yet though. I want to know what kind of merchandise they are offering in their rewards, if anything.

4200 pts is worth $3.00
350 pts is worth 25¢
So you made $3.25 for your time on both of those surveys...
1400 pts is worth $1.00 so you Got a Guide Line to Follow ...

Lee it took the card (4) days to arrive after I requested it. The only place it can be used is Online, by Phone or Mail Orders. Any of these places that Visa is Excepted.

Lee you can use the Valued Opinion $20 Visa Card anywhere. It's called a debit card but you use it like credit and you sign for your purchase. The card will come with your name on front of it. I was disappointed about that when I ordered mine because I was going to give it away as a Gift Card but with my name on front of it and with having to sign for purchases at most places I just had to use it myself.
