Valued Opinions is an internet-based survey company. First, you must spend your time registering with them. Then try a survey. If they say it will take ten minutes, it will take 20 minutes. Then they will trick you, like they did me. I had been taking a survey, giving my honest opinions for over ten minutes, when a message came out saying a "runtime error" had occurred. I hit the back button, and it said I had already taken the survey.
I emailed them, and all they said was, "Unfortunatelymost surveys can not be re-accessed, and we can not re-send or re-set surveys. We apologize forany inconvenience this may have caused you and will be in touch again shortlywith a new link if the survey manager is still in need of completed surveys." After completing one survey that took much longer than it should have, I asked them to send me a check for what they owed me ($3.00). At that rate, I would be earning $6 an hour. Please note that I am neither stupid nor slow... I have a Master's degree and my IQ is 140.
I was totally disgusted with their horrible customer service (a Cyber-woman with the fictitious name of "Isabel", who answers emails without reading them) and I wanted out after being paid my duly earned money. However, they let me know that they only cash out accounts once they have reached $20, and in the form of a gift-card. I told them I would report them to Ripoff reports if they didn't make an exception, and gave them a month to think about it. They didn't care! Don't waste your time on them, they are tricksters and dishonest. They make huge money from the companies they serve, and yet are too greedy to deal fairly with the individuals that make their profits possible.
