Wish I could give it a half star! Been disqualified forever apparently for quality of responses. Dont even know why. Cant find out why as no one responds when you send a message.

Dont be FOOLED!

Dont be fooled!

5 surveys? more like 500 surveys... you get the first four real quick and then spend days, a week, sometimes more waiting to get that (probably rigged) 5th so you can cash in.

funny how some surveys still wait to the end and take your postcode etc before conveniently screening you out and giving you the finger instead.

Ive had 4/5 surveys since last Thursday (todays the following Monday) and the website has been up on my screen 24/7 and I still cannot get that last 5th survey.

Five surveys.com is a ripoff

Five surveys.com is a ripoff. After I did four out of five surveys necessary to make $5, I immediately received this message: “Your account is on hold

We are waiting for feedback from our clients to verify the quality of your responses. To protect our community your account is temporarily on hold until March 2, 2025. This usually only happens once. We apologize for the inconvenience.”Every survey I tried to complete after March 2nd, I receive this message: "Unfortunately you do not qualify for the survey.Try next time!" And when you press the Help button, it does nothing.

The newest scam survey site

This is absolutely a scam survey site. They lure you in with taking 5 surveys for 5 dollars. You qualify for the first survey with no issues. Then you click tons and tons of their surveys wasting your time. 99% of the ones I attempted to take had me enter personal information with the survey lasting at least 10 minutes. Then when they have accessed your personal information for free you all of the sudden “don’t qualify for the survey”. Let me add that in order to go through this process they will congratulate you for qualifying to take the survey at the beginning. Then at the end you all of the sudden don’t qualify. I would also encourage people if you make the mistake of trying 5 surveys to not click “accepting cookies, terms of service” without thoroughly reading them. Most will say that you are giving them permission to see and store your “sensitive data and information”. It’s always hidden in the legal mumbo jumbo and it never explains what data they will actually obtain. I have deleted my account.

DO NOT USE THIS

i been doing hella surveys on this website and have earned £380 in total but they always give you low surveys when you need 1 more survey left to complete and theres always screen outs even when you answer honestly and take the surveys at a steady pace usually its easy to make at least £10 a week from this if your used to patience and all that but this website fell off trust me i reccomend qmee instead for now if this website changes their ways and gives us more survey's and doesn't purposely give us low surveys and adds a way to earn points using loot.tv (lootably) by watching videos then I'll change my rating but for now don't bother wasting your time

I read a warning about 5 Surveys initially paying out and then not doing so... Ignored it. My mistake. I have been diddled out of at least four completed survey rewards this morning alone! Funnily enough I've been half a survey away from £5 all that time. Standard generic response from the company.

5 surveys is a waste of time just wait till you complete 4 surveys, and it takes 10 day to complete another while they screen you out ...of 50 more this sites needs to be closed down because they sell all the information from the screened out surveys.

THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD

THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. THEIR ADVERT SAYS, "TAKE 5 SURVEYS AND GET PAID" A LOT OF PEOPLE INCLUDING ME HAVE BEEN TRYING TO COMPLETE COMMON 5 SURVEYS FOR OVER 2 MONTHS. ISN'T THAT A USELESS PLATFORM? THEY KEEP TELLING YOU, YOU'RE NOT QUALIFIED FOR SOME SURVEYS OR YOU DON'T EVEN GET ANY SURVEYS SOMETIMES. THE COMPANY IS UNSERIOUS AND SHOULD BE CLOSED DOWN. ON A NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCE, 5 SURVEYS SHOULDN'T TAKE MORE THAN 2 HOURS BUT THIS COMPANY WILL MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPLETE 5 SURVEYS. PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. IT'S A FRAUD. 💯

Got banned after making too many complaints to their customer service which is already completely worthless. Now I don't have to deal with them ever again since they banned me from taking surveys "forever" . They probably just didn't want to pay me anymore most likely. Don't waste your time folks.

Huge scam

Huge scam, When you get to the 4th survey you will notice the number of available surveys will drop from 10-20 to 1 or 2 that will screen you everytime. Its next to impossible to earn on this app for this reason alongside the fact that 90% of surveys they deliberately offer will disqualify you last but not least after 2865 years of attempts youl get your lowsy $5 ,then just like magic you got a full list of 10 - 20 surveys.... Such in your face scamming yet they get away with it. What a joke

Don't waste your time

Don't waste your time. Complete waste. I would complete a whole survey from start to finish, spending at least 30 minutes on it. At the end it'll say I don't qualify. I don't qualify after asking me 50 questions. There are better apps out there. Just stay away from this one. emailed customer service to hear the same excuse about how the survey stopped due to error. They always seem to stop due to error once you've completed the survey.

Complete waste of time

This site is a complete waste of time... They state that you get $5 for completing 5 surveys... you can do 3-4 surveys without any issues and then you can almost never get to the 5th complete survey to get paid.. I have only been paid once.. and now I am at 4 surveys complete and I have been kicked out of at least 125 surveys and been told you do not qualify. Or you spend 10 - 15 minutes on a survey, they get their information and then tell you that you do not qualify. What a terrible site.

This site is a scam

This site is a scam. I have already reviewed this site once and was responded to with the usual generic responses everyone gets. I have read a few of these reviews and 100% agree with them all. I completed a survey that was about joining a community and needed to complete the survey to be eligible for the payment on the survey and joining the community. Well, I completed the survey and then was disqualified but low and behold was sent the invitation to join this community. If I was disqualified then that means I wasn't right for the community. Right? I sent 5 surveys the proof that I was invited meaning I should have been paid for that survey but got the same b.s. response. I also know that when you are at 0 on your account it starts out ok. Then as you get closer to $5.00 it gets a whole lot more difficult. This developer has forgotten who makes the money for them and they don't appreciate their users. That being said. If you want to waste hours of your time for nothing then this is the app for you. If you want to really be apart of one who does remember who makes their money the try Heycash. They are awesome.

Avoid this survey site like the plague…

Avoid this survey site like the plague they are 100% scamming people. Surveys intentionally screen you out after working on them for 15 minutes to avoid giving you credit for them. Company is intentionally scamming people by getting info for free and/or getting credit from other companies for surveys by NOT crediting the survey taker.

3 stars is only because it pays

Been using it for a whie now. Just want to correct the great lie told by these companies "we assure you, your information is not retained unless you complete a survey".
False. This has been proven false over and over. Some surveys rat themselves out..how?...by switching survey sponsors, while only starting 1 survey, as it changes from sponsor to sponsor asking classification questions. It is absolutely capturing the information.
The surveys aren't user friendly. A lot are bugged and a lot are programmed with manipulation. Some extend their privilege by asking quite a bit of questions before booting. This is not typically how it works based on the many companies and many years of experience.

A garbage app ran by a greedy corporation that wants to sell your information for free. I have done thousands of surveys in my time and they are the absolute worst. Im looking into ways I can buy the company to then liquidate it and fire every employee. Finishing a whole survey without being paid after being promised is a breach of the customer’s agreement to trade their info for money. They don’t realize it, but they messed with the wrong cowboy

My experience with 5 surveys has been frustrating. I will complete a survey and get screened out at the very end. Or I complete a survey that throws me into another survey then get screened out. It's a waste of time sometimes for not getting compinsated.
