Survey Club

I signed up for surveyclub.com a month ago. Since then, I haven't really made any money. Although the site boasts a lot of hype about visiting websites and getting paid, I found that they were more interested in selling magazine subscriptions and health insurance than actually paying for opinions.

Click on to surveyclub.com and you will get an audio sales pitch. They tout themselves as the "Number One Online Survey Club in the World." Several testimonials on their site from different people boast of making at least $1,000 to receiving $125 for a single survey.

I'm a little leery about any "get rich quick scheme" and this site reeks of that. I'm also leery of anyone who is making $1,000 a month sitting behind a computer doing surveys all day. Things that sound too good to be true, are usually just that - too good to be true.

Surveyclub.com boasts of people making "thousands of dollars a month" just for giving their opinions. Any halfway intelligent person would be skeptical of this. The only way you are going to make "thousands of dollars a month" sitting in your home without having a widely marketable skill is if you're selling drugs from your home. I wouldn't advise that any more than I would advise participating in this site.

Unlike the most other online survey companies, Surveyclub.com does not pay you for taking the surveys. Payment is made from a variety of alleged "Fortune 500 Companies" who will "send you a check." You cannot pick the surveys you want to take, opportunities are sent to you via e-mail and they usually have some sort of catch.

I have received literally hundreds of e-mails from various companies promising me everything from a car to a luxury vacation. Although I am currently out of work, I am a halfway intelligent person. I don't believe in "getting something for nothing" and can usually smell a scam a mile away. These e-mails are deleted. Since I have signed up for this website, I've received many e-mails (most of which are directed to my spam folder). The ones I get in the my regular e-mail folder get deleted.

The one survey I did respond to, in the very beginning, was for $8. That didn't seem like an outrageous amount. Until I read the fine print. In exchange for my $8, I had to pick four magazines to subscribe to. I would get them for one month and then be able to cancel the subscription. Sorry, but that's just a little too much trouble to go through for $8.

Online survey companies can be a fun way to make a few extra dollars while you are at home. But they can also be a way to lose a lot of money and have your inbox flooded with unwanted e-mails. Like everything else, there are good online survey companies and bad ones. Surveyclub.com is a bad one. It preys on people who want to get rich quick (aka, suckers).

If you are thinking about joining an online survey company to make a few extra bucks, skip surveyclub.com. Take it from someone whose been there - it's really not worth the trouble.
