My friend was asking me to join Lightspeed Research, it is a survey company. Is anyone a member? Are they any good? Have you gotten your gift cards or money? Do they give you lots of surveys? I am just curious because some of them are scams and they don't give your gifts. Thanks a lot for your answers.

That's too bad that they don't give you anything for the surveys? I believe they do so you may want to check that out :).

I love lightspeed research
they send a lot of surveys so it's pretty easy to qualify for some, I think reaching the payout is easier than for som eother sites and I love the fact than you can redeem for paypal or gift certificates, plus if it's paypal or an e-certificate you get paid in a couple of days!
I have been paid several times, and received 2 gift certifcates, it's a great site

They are ok, but like someone else said, it take a long time to build up your points... usually that is.
The best survey I belong to is Global Test Market. I've earned $150 from them in the last year. They typically credit your account a quarter even if you don't qualify for the survey, so it's always worth your time to take a stab at it. Once you reach $50 you can request a check. Some of the surveys are worth just a couple dollars, others more, but they send enough of them out that you can usually get to $50 within about 3 months or so with a very small investment in your time online.

Wow, really? Okay, I will have to check them out, yea that sounds like survey spot, in just around 3 months I have 85 USD already in my account and I am just allowing them to add more money to my account so it can be like 100 USD or 200 USD before I request a check. That will be nice to get, right? So I definitely should check out Global Test Market, thank you.

Cool, yea I signed up with Global Test Market. Well, survey spot it probably does depend on your demographics, but I think you should log into your account from time to time. I noticed that they don't always send you the surveys that they have listed in your account. Plus, I don't qualify for many surveys either cos I don't have children.
You are right cos I am signed up with Survey Savvy and some people on here say they get surveys from them all the time. I get about one or two surveys from them every two to three months. It is very seldom. :(

It is good. I don't qualify for alot of them, but they do send many surveys and have a good reward program.

I have been a member of Lightspeed for some time. They send surveys fairly regularly, and I know of some people who have been paid out without problems, but I have not reached that level as yet. It's another little way to earn money on line, but you need to set you preferences of a lot of things to get lots of surveys..

Cool, well my friend is at 2200 points, he says he was going to request the Wendy's gift card (30 USD), but it's 3000 points, so he is almost there! Okay, derek_a, I think I will join then. You have convinced me, but I also would like other opinions as well, thank you :D

Yes, you are right. They seem to be like surveyspot, but I get many more surveys from them than surveyspot. And my friend has around 2300 points so I am happy for him. I just started about 3 weeks ago and I've done many surveys :)
