Greenfield Online

[cjz8249]

Has anyone received any payments from Greenfield Online? I have about $30 dollars worth of promised payments that never showed up on my account. I had two surveys that I was able to request payment for, but have not seen the checks. I have e-mailed 3 times and called once and have gotten nowhere. I have gotten paid by GoZing into my paypal account, which I thought was owned by the same company. Of course it has taken many months to get those payments. Any suggestions?

I've had the same problems with greenfield also. The surveys' seem to time out and they haven't paid me my $2 yet. I don't even take surveys with them anymore, it's just not worth the hassle!

It takes anywhere from 2 to 6 months to get their checks.You need to keep all survey invites to prove you did them.I had to e-mail them copies several times and they always paid after that.

They're notorious for this kind of stuff. You'd figure as big as they are that they'd be able to figure this kind of stuff out. Even as a Greenfield affiliate, I've had problems getting paid from them. I've always eventually gotten paid, but It's never been painless. And there support is horrible. The last time I emailed them was regarding an affiliate problem I was having, they emailed me back telling me how I could sign up for surveys.

Only thing I can tell you is to keep ALL of your emails from them. Chances are your going to need them.

I have the same problem...I sent a email and they told me that it takes 6-8 weeks to pay...but already have that time waiting and I did tons of surveys for them...I think I'm not going to do anymore surveys for this company....what do you think??

I have been paid twice by Greenfield. I have taken lots of one or
two dollar surveys at their site that I have never been paid for
and no longer expect to either. I did not keep copies of the survey
serial numbers when I first started with them.

I could care less about their sweepstakes.

I will now only take surveys from them or Gozing for 10.00
or more. Anything less is simply not worth the time, effort, and
headaches. You can easily spend more time trying to
collect payment for a survey than what the survey actually took
to complete. Plus you will not get paid for the time it takes
to keep good records or time it takes to collect for those surveys
they did not pay you for.

When you all get tired of these problems that are not going
to go away, and you decide you want to make some decent
money, click the banner in my signature and discover a new
way to get paid every month on time with NO headaches !!!

I think the banner is advertising enough, you know where you can post the self promotion.

Thanks

Well, I actually got a $2 check from them last week for a payout I requested in May. I was shocked. And they responded to my 6th attempt for information on a $25 incentive that was owed to me last week as well saying I would see it credited in my account in 3-4 days. And then yesterday I got another e-mail apologizing that they had not credited it yet but that they had not received confirmation from their client and could not credit my account until they did. I am not holding out much hope for my $25, but at least they have bothered to send me a few e-mail about it

You should frame that...lol

I have heard of someone having their Greenfield check bounce! I too am waiting on interactive money from them. $55 to be exact. $25 is from March. I've about given up on it. Congrats on the check!

Last week I rec'd $60 payment for interactive surveys I completed a couple of months ago...I have also just cashed out another $113 and should receive that in a couple months... Remember it normally takes anywhere from 4-6 weeks for surveys to be completed and results to be tallied before they will post any incentives to your account...They do pay but they pay slowly.... Best of luck to everyone...

Gosh, the $2 check I received from them last week seems so small but every little bit counts!

Hi Everybody,

I'm glad I just found you all!

I've been doing paid surveys/product tests for about 4 years now.

I wanted to comment about your topic and let you know that I've been a member of GF for so long I've found that you just need to sit tight and expect about a 3 month delay between the time you request a check from them, and when it actuallly shows up in your mailbox.

Also, they've been coming in postcard size (the check is covered, of course) so be VERY CAREFUL when you go through your mail!! It looks like a piece of junk mail, but has something about "check enclosed" printed on the front.

One more thing, if I were you all, I would NOT hound them...I've known others that have e-mail them ("where is my check??") and been repeatedly ignored and blackballed. So, it's best to be very patient and always have money in the "pipeline"! I just received 2 checks totaling $95, though they took over 8 weeks to get to me. Check your account often because they stopped e-mailing you when you have money in your account...
Hope this helps!

Thank you everyone for the great information!!

My problem isn't getting the check. They have "no record" of 2 of my interactives that I completed. Any other time I have had the money in my account and gotten a check.
