I have been doing surveys for extra cash and found one that pays very well! I thought these surveys were bogus and that no one really made money from them or you needed to spend money to make money. But with this site you really do make cash! I made $28 in 2 weeks for maybe 20 minutes total of my time! The only catch is you have to make $75 before cashing out. No big deal.  I did surveys about prime time television shows, new car concepts, health care and Grocery stores. Businesses are paying big bucks to find out what the consumer really wants, so why not get in on it??Just click the link to join for free and get $6 just for signing up!

Muhammad...turn down free money?? not me! $28 bucks for 20 minutes of my time! yeah baby!

I checked it out, but it seems their only purpose is to direct you to other survey sites. I also find it odd that they charge you $25 to receive payment through paypal, especcially since paypal payment is cheaper for them to process than a check is.
Jenna S. Aug 10, 2007, 2:01am EDT
I've been sitting at 33.00 some dollars. It didn't take long at all. I know some people have already been paid. I opt for the whole 75.00 though and say forget using paypal if you don't want them taking out the 25.00 fee.

Penny, you don't need to sign up for the other sites though. Alot of them are paid to sites which I don't do anyways.I just give honest feedback and I've done well so far and didn't sign up for anything.

Mandi- Just be careful giving out your refferal because if someone creates a fraduelent account your's could end up deleted too.

Hi there. Thanks for this link. I participate in a LOT of online programs and this is one I hadn't seen yet. SO... I signed up and completed my 1st $6 survey already. Thanks!
*LORA* M. Aug 10, 2007, 2:19am EDT
I checked it out. The payment options to redeem are terrible. 4-6 weeks to get your money by paper ck.
If you use pay pal there is a 25.00 expedited fee taken from your survey money.

NO thanks. don't need it to take forever to get my pay
Bonnie C. Aug 10, 2007, 2:56am EDT
thanks
Bonnie C. Aug 10, 2007, 3:00am EDT
I forgot...went to sign up but i must have signed up a while ago. Theres 25 bucks in my account Wahoo lol. I think it takes 50 to cash out. Have you gotten a payment yet
Bonnie C. Aug 10, 2007, 3:03am EDT
OOPs nope, just checked it is 75 to cash out. Holy cow!
Sounds like a scam.
Monica Kennedy Aug 10, 2007, 5:52am EDT
Thanks - I'll check it out.
Syed The Shah Aug 10, 2007, 7:06am EDT
I think that this site is made in haste, look at the cheap design, even I could build a similar site design. There is no physical address also.
Perhaps, they may be earning cash themselves, the site is also not registered with a secure server authority such as Verisign.
They look more interested in getting information.

Thanks Mandi!
if you read gathers terms it says 4-6 weeks for payment also... I have never had to wait that long.

You do not have to join any other site if you don't want to and waiting a few eeks(if it takes that long) for cash that is free is ok by me ;-)

thanks everyone!
Jenna S. Aug 10, 2007, 10:41am EDT
I'm with you Mandi. I actually don't think that wait is that bad. I have waited that long from other legit survey companies for payment. Survey companies I have cashed out with numerous times. Sometimes it just takes a little longer from the company. Sometimes you recieve payment faster then they say too. So, to me it doesn't hurt to try since people have been paid and it's easy money. How often is money almost totally free (without any time involved)
Jenna S. Aug 10, 2007, 10:43am EDT
Faith- I posted the link weeks ago on myspace.LOL. I guess you missed it. Next ones I'll send to you because I found some new programs I'm going to be working with soon.
Genine Hopkins Aug 10, 2007, 11:42am EDT
How often have new surveys been added to your account? It seems like these went very quickly and paid alot; I'm wondering if this is as close as you get without getting alot of people so sign up under your referral. I did sign up, but I'm not holding my breath. I've been suckered by the free laptops before and even went to them knowing I was going to purchase something from one of their sponsors, (since you have to complete one offer before you allegedly get the freebie), and somehow always end up with no free laptop but several items purchased from their site! Anyone else have this happen?
Deb J. Aug 10, 2007, 11:51am EDT
Thanks so much!!
Marge H. Aug 10, 2007, 12:08pm EDT
Hubby and I signed up for that one about a month ago under separate accounts. We each earned $28.00 the first day for about 20 minutes worth of work. We have not received any more surveys since that first day.
Marge H. Aug 10, 2007, 12:27pm EDT
OK. I just went back to the site and there was a survey to take. It only paid $1.00 though.
Sharon A. Aug 10, 2007, 1:09pm EDT
Great! Thanks for sharing!
Tina Coruth Aug 10, 2007, 1:15pm EDT
Mandi, I have some reservations. I checked out the site and the one thing that concerned me most and already mentioned by Muhammad Shah, is that there is no physical address. To me, that is a big red flag. If I understand you correctly, you have not reached the $75 dollar level yet? Marge's comments concern me then. How long does it take for the average person to reach the $75. One last thing. Charging $25.00 to pay through paypal is outrageous. Due to ebaying and writing, my husband and I have sent payments and received payments via paypal and I can see absolutely no reason for that charge. I hope we are wrong about that site. Please update us with your progress there. Thank you for the info!
Thanks for sharing the info - but no thanks.
Everyone,
the surveys don't roll in everyday, but about every 2 weeks. You are not going to get rich with this, but if you can make a tank of gas or some milk and bread money for sitting on your butt it is worth it.
I will update once I cash out...only time will tell. thanks all!
Tina, I would not pay them to use paypal.. I will opt for a check in the mail..we will see what happens!
ALSO to everyone... you do NOT have to do the surveys where you have to purchase something...that is completely optional...I have never spent a dime or given my credit card or social security number out...and neither should you!
Cyndi _. Aug 10, 2007, 3:43pm EDT
Hi Mandi-

I checked it out an did $27 worth of surveys. I did notice though that youneed to reacha $75 in order to receive any money. Do you have any idea how long it usually takes to reach this level? I see above you said the surveys only coem in about every two weeks.
Jenna S. Aug 10, 2007, 5:32pm EDT
Peter- You don't just have to reffer people. You'll get there sooner if you do. Like Mandi already said surveys come in about every 2 weeks. I occasionally check the website and see surveys that weren't sent to me. (I've had other companies do this as well.) Once again I'll state 2 people on another forum I'm a member of have been paid. One even posted his paypal proof. I was leary at first too. But, I'm still giving it a try because of the proof.
Marge H. Aug 10, 2007, 5:36pm EDT
At a $1.00 a month, it will take almost another 4 years to earn enough to cash out, if they are still in business and if they don't raise the bar to $100 meanwhile.
Jill~Sexy Back~ V. Aug 10, 2007, 5:59pm EDT
not for me. but thanks for posting
Visionaerie B. Aug 10, 2007, 6:42pm EDT
Sounds interesting, although $75 is a pretty steep mark for cashing out. I try to sign up for as many of these as I can, after first checking them out at Survey Police. There's also a big list of paid survey links at a site called Squidoo. Take the time to do the research, see what the specifications are, then go for it! I do quite well but it pays to "diversify" your choices, in case one slows down. Also keep up with your profiles to get more surveys. Thanks for the information!
Larry H. Aug 10, 2007, 9:28pm EDT
thanks for sharing..don't like surveys
Do you like this site?
Update if anyone has gotten a check from this site. :-)
Selene N. Aug 10, 2007, 11:06pm EDT
$75 minimum payout and $25 PayPal FEE?? That's horrible.
Stephen H. Aug 11, 2007, 10:55am EDT
I agree that A.W. Surveys is for real, is awesome, and pays you. I earn over $100 a week consistently with online surveys as described on my profile and Gather group. Good luck, and thanks so much for outlining the benefits of this great program. Stephen
Sharon B. Aug 11, 2007, 6:52pm EDT
Thanks, I had not seen this one before. Already signed up and made $14 in minutes. I did not have to sign up for anything; just give my honest opinion of the sites. And as far as waiting for my check, what is the difference, it is still better than what I had before and it will spend very nicely when I get it. Thank you very much.
Sharon B. Aug 11, 2007, 8:36pm EDT
I just did all the surveys available at this time and earned $27. This is great. It took very little time.
Sophiya S. Aug 11, 2007, 11:36pm EDT

Sophiya S. Aug 11, 2007, 11:36pm EDT

Thank you for the heads up. I hope it gave you credit.
Lisa B. Dec 26, 2007, 12:54pm EST
I may have to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.
Alex In Wonderland Jun 17, 2008, 2:12pm EDT
I signed up for this site a while back and was up to $30. Then suddenly the site disappeared. A few weeks later I saw them back up again but my login info was no longer working. I was really looking forward to making some money from them. The weird thing is that I just don't understand how they benefited fromwhat they did.

Hello :o),

I just wanted to stop by since I am finally going through what is now listed as under 4,700 pieces of gather new mail that is sitting in my inbox on here.

With that mentioned I just came across either a mailing from you yourself, or someone else brought this piece to my attention. You or they felt that your creation should be shared with the gather community, which I am very glad that it was passed on to me to view. So I wanted to say Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to publish it here on gather for us to all view. :o)

As well before I leave you I wanted to wish you a Happy New Year... in 2009 :o)
