Ipsos cancelled my account per their policy but will not give me my point value that I have already earned completing surveys. This is fraud because I spent my time doing surveys and they refuse to cash out my points.Business response

On June 29, 2024, I received 3000 points for using the RealityMeter on my phone for the moth of June 2024. I have tried numerous times to redeem the points for ******* gift cards. I am unable to redeem because the site keeps saying I dont have enough points, which is a lie because I have over 3300 points. I have tried sending emails to see if someone could rectify this but no one is answering my numerous emails to try to help me. This is the first time I had trouble redeeming my points. It is frustrating more so when no one bothers to help you solve the problem.Business response

I was a member of this platform for a few months, was doing surveys regularly and having some issues here and there to redeem my points, but the real problem started once i did 2 long focus groups for Pringles.1. Focus group was long 1hr and worth 5000points (50$), and 2. Focus group was 2hrs long video call focus group worth 17500points (175$).Since i finished those focus groups, i had problem to get those points delivered to my account, as a reward i earned for my time and being part of the focus groups.Once they credited those points to my account, they ended up suspending/blocking my account with huge amounts of points available, leaving me with no option to redeem it, ***** points is my balance (that is 239.05$).Since then, it's more then 7 days i am going back and forth with their customer support, and all i get is generic answers, no real reasons or whatsoever why they suspended my account without letting me redeem my hard earned points.Shame on all of you there, i will make sure everybody hear about this experience of mine and how you scammed me.Business response

On May 6th, I signed up for a Rolex watch shop with a payout of $125. Both the guidelines and a direct email said that if there was no personalized response within 72 hours, to go ahead and do the in person visit without setting up an appointment. I received an automatic response, but no personalized response so went ahead and visited the store. I received the personalized response 5 days after the initial inquiry and told them about this. I was told that because I did not set up an appointment, I was being denied pay. I followed the guidelines as set by the company and pointed this out and was not helped. I did work for this company and was never compensated. I have included emails that show that the information given is inconsistent/incorrect.Business response

Hello,
After reaching out to the team in charge of this project, we were informed that the shopper did not adhere to the stipulated guidelines and thus, completed the shop incorrectly. As a result, we were unable to compensate her due to the unusable nature of the data provided.
We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

On April 17 2024 I redeemed my survey rewards for a $5 Amazon card which the site says gets sent to your email address immediately. They did not send it. This has happened before. I sent repeated emails in the past and they say to junk check my junk folder where it is not there. Finally they send it after many back and forth emails. This time nobody sent the gift card and they are not responding to my emails. Theres no response. If the gift card takes time they should tell you that. If they dont want to send the gift card, they have to. If they dont want to give rewards as promised without explanation then just give me my card this time and Ill not deal with them anymore or recommend them. They dont respond to the customer.Business response

I've been doing surveys with this company for about a year now. I've saved $250.00 in points from December until now. I've done no wrong doing and they decided to terminate my account. They will not give me my $250.00 back. I've contacted numerous times in customer service. They keep saying I don't meet clients interest but they won't respond to the fact that they owe me $250.00. They keep ignoring it.Business response
