Surveytime Removed: Payouts & Issues
Join CommunitySummary
The Make Money Online 💸 community announced the removal of Surveytime due to significant negative changes following an update. The platform's previously instant $1 payout per survey is now a difficult-to-reach $5 minimum, and users experienced issues like delayed payments, excessive email spam, technical glitches, and the unannounced deletion of affiliate profiles. These changes have caused the site to lose its unique advantage, making it comparable to other generic survey platforms.
Sadly, all good things must come to an end... @🔔 Announcements
So, #surveytime (Surveytime) got an update and it's very bad. I'll also tell you my and collected issues from about it lately. Surveytime was a site where everyone was treated the same, no matter the country you were from; you would receive 1$ (rarer 0.5$) per one completed survey which was a real good thing in second and third world countries.
Now, here's why change is bad:
- The payout isn't instant anymore and is now 5$ which is very hard to reach when you spend 20 minutes for 20 cents and probably get disqualified anyways. (screenshot 1)
- Other survey sites such as #freecash・😐 offer disqualification rewards which is nice. Before it was worth not getting the disqualification reward on Surveytime if you were to receive 3x the pay than on other sites. Now the pay is similar if not worse.
And here's my issues with it:
- Prior to the update people were not getting paid or waited days for the payout, some were not able to do surveys when waiting for the payment. (I was able to, but I did have to wait a few days to get paid). Waiting a few days for a payment isn't that bad, but the site advertised that it has instant cashout without forcing to collect specific amounts etc.
- Mail spam, Surveytime has been spamming emails to use it every 4 hours or so since a week. (screenshot 2)
- I've been getting stuck on a few surveys over and over again as Surveytime keeps redirecting me to one which said that I have already completed all the time for several days. (screenshot 3)
- Also, before my affiliate profiles were deleted without any warning for no reason or notification. They have also removed the affiliate bonuses in same way lately. (screenshot 4)
In conclusion, what was once the best and most unique survey site became a generic crap like all the others with nothing unique to it. Based on these facts it is getting removed from the server and probably never coming back again.
