Lightspeed Panel Survey #18977 %$&##!!

**squirt661** · 03-19-2007, 03:58 PM

I am just about ready to call lightspeed quits. Tonight I received an email invite to take this survey for 500 points. After signing in, I was told the survey only offered 75 points. Ole dumb me, went back to re-read my email to make sure I did see the 500 points, which I did, and when I went back to take that survey, poof, it vanished, and I am a very unhappy camper. Just wondering, has anything like this happened to anyone else, or are they only targeting me ???

Thanks for listening.

BE GLAD it disappeared! Chances are you would have taken a very LONG survey and gotten NO points so at least you did not waste your time. This kind of thing has happened to me, where you get an email with a certain survey number, you log in and see that the same number survey is NOT the promised amount of points that are in your email but FAR less. AND in the last month I have only qualified for three surveys, two of which did not credit me any points. AND no responses to emails either(no responses to emails is NOT new...has repeatedly happened to me in the past). I am about done with them too!

lightspeed went downhill about a year ago - they moved their tech support to India, surveys got longer and longer - points not awarded, checks not sent - I had to file a better business claim to get the money they owed me. dump them - and if my experience is not enough - check out their rap sheet on surveypolice.com.

OUTSOURCED to India? NO WONDER they are the pits! What a darned shame! THANKS for the heads up!

I do not take their surveys anymore! They suck!!!!

I agree. I rarely do their surveys anymore. They are always way too long for the amount of points that you get and I was doing 20 minutes worth of survey just to be told that I didn't qualify; after they had already gotten all of the info they needed from me for free. They used to be good, but not anymore.

What makes me

is when they send you an e-mail they have a survey for ya and then you click the link only to be told its filled up or there really isnt one for you to do.

Then why send me the e-mail...

I agree, they have went down hill. You take a way to long survey to be told you don't qualify

Guess I have just been lucky. Both me and my son redeemed points. He even had enough points for two $25 gift cards. We both got our cards within a week. And I have always received my points by the next day.
One thing I hate is you can not go back to a survey. I was filling one out, my power went off for a couple minutes. When I went back It wouldn't let me finish it.

They owe me 5,000 pts for 2 focus groups I did. 4 emails and no response and no points. Guess I'll do the same as when E-poll didn't pay. Take a few more surveys and type in everywhere "Lightspeed doesn't pay their panelists'" What are they gonna do.... delete my acct??? LOL

the only reason i have stuck with them this long is because they are one of the few that actually still at least pay out and not darn drawings. I'm sick of taking surveys for drawings i am never going to win
