Service & Snafus

Learn about customer service and potential issues with Survey Club and PermissionResearch before you sign up.

Survey ClubPermissionResearch
Survey Club

Survey Club has an established record of helping their users with any issues they encounter. The customer service is considered to be excellent.

PermissionResearch
Survey Club

There really not much to dislike about Survey Club, but they can get a bit overzealous when it comes to sending you email. Expect at least two daily. At times, the emails may not be directly for surveys but ads for partner sites to provide surveys. These emails are completely legit, but some users may find the amount and content a bit distracting.

PermissionResearch

This biggest negative with Permission Research is that your primary reward is sweepstakes and not direct rewards for your participation. While the company is certainly reputable and there are winners, a certain degree of luck is need to make this program worth your while.

If you're looking for a more conventional company that pays out directly in cash and gift cards, you may want to look elsewhere.

Final Verdict

See our closing thoughts to help you decide if Survey Club or PermissionResearch is better for you.

Survey ClubPermissionResearch
Survey Club

Few programs offer the array of focus groups, clinical trials, and surveys as Survey Club. Likewise, few can offer such great earning potential. This program is a must join for anybody looking for a successful multi-program approach to paid surveys. If you're willing to devote some time and effort to these focus groups, you will certainly be well-compensated for your time.

PermissionResearch

The best part about Permission Research is that there's not much active participation required for you to have a chance to be rewarded. The only requirement is that you download their software and allow them to anonymously monitor your Internet usage. The software is completely safe, but if you have a lot of other programs running on your PC you may not want to endure the extra strain on your resources.

Additionally, you may receive survey invites via pop-ups (which you can turn off), which can be a bit annoying.

This program is worth a try, but certainly isn't for everyone. The upside is that you could get lucky and hit the big one with the sweepstakes offer. Plus, there is limited downside as the software is easily removed if you decide to no longer participate.
