Love/Hate relationship – Qmee: Paid Surveys | Free Cash Review

I loved Qmee for years … they seem to be getting dishonest more recently. You get offers for surveys and they almost never pay what they say. I just did a survey that was something like $1.42 for 9 minutes. I was working on it at least 9 minutes, typed answers, a lot of effort from me … It asked my race, age, etc. as it often does at the end and then awarded me 7¢. And this is just one of MANY, almost daily examples of dishonesty (?). If you’re going to pay 7¢ for 9 minutes, tell people that …. Then the issue is that nobody wants to do a 9 minute survey for 7¢, so pay what you say or take the survey down. Complaint 2: You can’t really report the dishonest surveys when they screw you over, the survey ends, the survey is gone and paid basically nothing (or sometimes actually nothing), it appears that you can’t complain. You can’t tell anyone “I just spent 8 minutes on a 15 minute survey then got ‘turned down’ more than halfway through and received $0.00.” Yeah, sometimes a few cents will trickle in later for your effort, but not always. I will write down everything sometimes to see if I earned money after the fact (e.g., starting cash, how many surveys I did; how many turned me down, how long they were, number of minutes I spent on them, etc. sign back in later to see if some $$ trickled in from surveys that dropped me way into the survey, and often there’s nothing for that effort. They need to make these companies answer more for the surveys so they’re more honest and pay more honestly. When a $1/15 minute survey dumps you 8 minutes in, shouldn’t I still get 20-50¢????? Complaint 3: You build up “piggies” over 5 or 6 days … but you miss going on one day and they’re gone. You don’t slowly lose them, e.g., like 1 or 2 piggies lost each day you’re absent til they’re gone. Nope, if you’re like me, I can work (IRL) some 12-16 hour work days occasionally and on those days I can’t find a minute to touch my phone. I literally wake up, eat, go to work. Piggies gone. Build them up again over 5 or 6 days, and if real life interrupts you, too bad.
