Online Surveys

I'm not sure to believe whether or not these are real or scam. Anybody had any experience with Free Online Surveys? If so could you recommend some. Thanks.

Never do them. Even when you can save so much off the next order or whatever. Never.

I do ones for E-Rewards, I convert the points into frequent flyer miles. It's not a real boon but it often only takes me 30 seconds.

The best for me are the ones from my frequent flyer scheme itself. They are about three multiple choice questions and I get on average 3000 miles per survey!

I doubt that's true. your telling me that the airlines are basically giving you like 500 bucks just to do a survey? highly doubt it. Unless 3000 miles is like points or something and you need like 100000000000 to fly anywhere.

Yes, it is true, I do the surveys and I watch the miles go into my account after each one. It is a very generous frequent flyer scheme. 3000 miles aren't worth $500. But I can fly Business Class from the UK to South Africa and back for 37,500 miles+£210+taxes. The ones from eRewards aren't nearly as generous but it only takes me a couple of minutes usually and after a while I've got enough for a 1000 miles or so.

There are people who actually make a living doing online surveys, however it is very time consuming and you get tired of looking at the screen all day. I know this because I do contract work for firms that offer, among their various programs, online survey and mystery shopping programs, where you can get paid for performing these. My wife tried both, and quickly figured out the time you put in is not worth the money you get out of it. I would only recommend the online surveys for individuals who are perhaps physically handicapped and are confined to their house. The first thing my wife found out was, do not use your main email address, it gets flooded with all sorts of junk mail and offers from other survey companies. It got so bad she just quit using it and had to open another one. I would suggest if you are going to try it, set up a free Gmail or Hotmail account. We actually have done a few of the mystery dining programs before, yes you get the meal paid for as well as non-alcoholic drinks, but there is a long form you have to fill out for each restaurant, condition of the bathrooms, lobby, speed of service, waiter/managers name, etc. Worth it for the more expensive places but not for casual dining.
