Is surveyhead a scam?

In this question I'm not asking whether it's real but whether it actually gives you money for answering questions. My brother went on this website called surveyhead where he answers questions and gets money. My dad asked his friends whether this is true and my dad's friends said there was a boy in California who did something on the internet that said it pays and his dad received a letter that says they owe the company one million bucks. My dad's worried, so can anyone tell me if surveyhead's actually gives money for answering questions or is it just a scam. Thanks.

  Most of the time, they are scams, and they include these fine print things that say you have to pay to get in or something, but in a few situations, these survey things are real and they pay very little, but mostly, they are fake.

  • Other Answers (1)Most survey web sites do pay for you participating in surveys. But the pay is very, very little and generally will not add up to more than $20ish per year. Most reasonable people do not feel that the time and effort you have to put out in answering the surveys is worth the amount of money they eventually pay you. For one thing, most surveys target a particular audience and you will only qualify for a few surveys. Another problem is the majority of surveys does not pay very much. They will tout the very infrequent surveys that do pay a lot but again, they are far and few in between.

    Surveyhead not hoouring Payments Complaint Rating:  Company information: Survey head United States Surveyhead confirmed all my individual survey payments. However, when I requested the cashout, I was shocked to see, that they have rejected my cashout. They had not notified me the same, and I found out when I manually checked my account. When I contacted them, they replied back after multiple reminders. According to them, something is wrong with my account and that they cant say what. After taking money from individual survey companies, they are not paying us. I heard some other of my colleagues also complaining the same. As such, I feel Surveyhead is a fraud. ______________- I figured they were probably a scam due to the high payout limit of 10.00 dollars. I just delete their mails now. They ban keep that $5 in my acct. At least you didn't have to pay to join.   2009-03-28 by   TerryC   -1 Votes Well I have alot to say about this dead beat company. To make a long story short, I have been taking surveys from them for 3 months, finally get to the cash out minimum, all surveys were verfied by them. I just get an email saying: Due to irregularities in your account, your cash out request has been denied. Unfortunately this decision cannot be overturned and is final. even my payout was even confirmed. Now you tell me if this right. I am with 20+ survey companies and never had ANY problem. I plan to write to every website that I can find, do blogs, RSS feeds, myspace, facebook, twitter, and any other website to show what this company is all about! Oh and by the way they have just created a new survey site (wonder why?) called Edu research group, same interface. I have also capture my account and all information to distribute to anyone that is intrested.  ________________________________________ This is what I received in an email instead of payment-- We have reviewed your recent request to cash out funds from Surveyhead. Due to irregularities in your account, your cash out request has been denied. Unfortunately this decision cannot be overturned and is final. The reason for this decision most likely relates to a violation of the Surveyhead terms and conditions. I have taken 31 surveys that they show the status of "earned" --$55.50 Never heard anything about being irregular until I cashed out. So they take your surveys and they get their money for them but do not pay us. I'm very honest taking the surveys -- They are just taking people for a ride. I'm sure that they pay every other person - I wish that I had known before. DO NOT JOIN __________________________________________ I received the same email informing that my cashout was denied for possibly violating terms and conditions. I sent them an email back saying that I think I received this in error. And YES! It was an error and a lot of people like me got the same email. They said they were having technical difficulties, which all survey companies do, and posted payment today. So, they ARE legit and NOT a scam. _______________________________________________- Surveyhead is a scam I have earned $118.00 in surveys and I finally cashed out for $27.50. They said that I should recieve my money within 5 weeks and I still have not received anything. I wrote very nice letters asking for my money and I got nothing in return. I would not recommend anyone to join surveyhead. They take too long to move money from pending to cashout. They wont pay out..Surveyhead is a scam. This should be illegal. I have contacted the CEO of Surveyhead as well. Please if anyone can shed some light on this situation please let me know. Just post a blog on this website... thank you.. ______________________________________ They (SurveyHead) are real scam bag people who prey members to make money. They don’t pay, don’t ever join this scammer people . I have $28.71 but never pay by this people with $12.00 plus pending. I sent them 7 email no responds about my money.
