Hey Corbin, you're welcome . I like sharing these places with others cause it's always nice to have some easy money - really helps for us jobless people .
Yes, it does take UP TO 4-6 weeks, but often times it will only take 2-3. Just be sure with every survey you finish, write down the survey number, topic, value, and time finished. In the rare event that there's a problem (or takes over 6 weeks), you can use that info to get credited asap.
Edit: Added a few new places, hope that helps! |

I'm not sure - maybe PineCone changed the signup links? If nothing else, Googling the signup page might work |
Corbin
| | #109 posted November 17, 2008 at 9:15pm (EST) |
I've heard that they only accept so many people. Maybe they reached the limit? |

I have no idea, maybe they did  . All I know is they used to not have the link to signup on their main page. They'd put banners randomly on the internet to attract various demographics, and it'd be illegal to post the link. If I get another email about signing up, I"ll shoot it to you asap. Maybe try the link again in case?
To the others I sent the link to: did you get in? |

I found a link. Of course-- I can't post it. It allowed me to sign up, but I don't know if I'll get in. They've yet to get back to me. |
NathanOfLight
| | #113 posted November 18, 2008 at 11:12pm (EST) |
Just make sure you were as honest as you could be in your profile (and maybe go sign into the site to check) - and when you get those household questions, they'll determine what surveys you get. Maybe even check the "available surveys" section when you sign in. |
