Making Money at Home with Online Surveys

Does anyone have any experience with the survey site www.bigspot.com? I have seen it advertised on TV.

Thanks.

Sounds like they're trying to capitalize on the legitimate site, SurveySpot. SurveySpot.com pays cash to your PayPal account for surveys you take online. They used to send checks, but I think they just use PayPal now. It's free. Surveys will run around $2-4.00 for each one you qualify for & complete. It's not get rich quick (or ever!), but it's $2-4.00 you didn't have 15 minutes before you took the survey.

I have never heard of it and have never seen a legit survey site advertise on TV.

Here are some reviews:

Another link said:

"Bigspot.com is a very complex scam & a front for the company www.SurveyPayoff.com who do charge you for services."

Compare the websites for both side by side and they are pretty near identical.

http://www.bigspot.com/

I personally would stay away from this one.

I do a few survey sites but try to stick with ones in the top ten list at Survey Police. You can research other survey sites there also. I see absolutely no mention there of BigSpot.com

You won't get rich with any of them...just some extra spending money. But it isn't worth a few extra bucks to be spammed or scammed so please be cautious.

I would like any info on online surveys. I know that some can cause problems for your PC. I am looking for some good ones to make extra money at home.

Has anyone tried those places on line where you get paid to do surveys? Are they on the up-and-up, or are they a scam like the old envelope-stuffing one?
