Panorama Panel vs Points2Shop

Panorama Panel excels in customer service, providing multiple support channels like a detailed FAQ and dedicated live technical assistance.

Their team is particularly focused on ensuring a smooth onboarding experience, helping participants through device setup and streaming service connections.

Users praise the support team's responsiveness and patience, whether dealing with initial setup questions or resolving ongoing measurement issues.

With millions of members, Points2Shop handles their customers fairly well. Unlike many sites, it's simple to open up an email support ticket from your account dashboard. They'll even give you an estimated response time. The majority of users report reasonably fast and courteous service.

The main challenge with Panorama Panel is the initial waiting period. New users must complete the full setup process, wait through the 45-day grace period, and maintain consistent participation.

While this might seem lengthy, it's a standard practice in research panels to ensure data quality. Once you're past this initial period, the monthly rewards are reliable and consistent.

There have been some user complaints about sudden account termination. In the past, Points2Shop has been plagued by hackers attempting fraud, so if their system detects anything out of the ordinary it automatically close your account.

As long as you are not trying to cheat the system, you should not have any problems with the Points2Shop system. Sudden account closure claims are few and far between, but since the company has endured numerous cyber attacks they are quite vigilant about any dishonest users. Should this happen to you, contact support to rectify the situation.

Points2Shop also accepts direct advertisers on their sites, some of which are directly looking for ways to market to users, which includes telemarketing. There have been some user complaints of receiving unwanted calls, so you may want to steer clear of offers that require a phone number to complete.
