Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Additionally, some customers reported issues with account access, slow website performance, and difficulties redeeming points or receiving payments.

I get rewarded for every survey. On other survey sites you might spend 20 minutes answering screening questions only to be told you don't qualify. YouGov finds something for me every time. I also like... See more

I do enjoy the site. My suggestions are as follows: 1) stick to one topic in said survey. At times, it's like you through every kitchen ingredient into a blender and pressed blend. 2) the connections... See more

Fun surveys and fair point distribution!

Interesting surveys and FAIR point distribution! You never get through a survey just to be told “I’m sorry you don’t qualify and will not be awarded any points.” That is infuriating! I have already earned a $15.00 Amazon gift card and I’m halfway to earning another! Reached those milestones within 2-3 weeks. Pretty cool for taking 5-10 minute surveys that don’t bore you to death! 😁😉

Overall I think the app is a good tool…

Overall I think the app is a good tool and a positive experience. The only drawback is the obvious slant or bias that comes across because of how the questions are written; that can sometimes appear leading or to force an answer.

Terrible

Terrible! After spending FOREVER getting enough points, it automatically sent me an ADIDAS gift card and DIDNT EVEN ASK ME!!!

Then they tell me they can't fix the error!

Rediculous!

Do not trust this company

Beware. This company is not trustworthy.

My suspicion is that there 1) is a deliberate attempt to avoid paying respondents and 2) eliminate those not providing ‘correct’ responses.

My husband doubted YouGov’s integrity after he was mysteriously banned just before getting his £50 voucher.

Secondly, YouGov just banned me without any explanation or reason.

Since 2021 I had answered daily questions, given opinions in daily chats and had two payments worth £50 each.

Last week there is suddenly ‘a problem with my account’ so I emailed ‘support’ After SEVEN emails I get a response This panellist is not allowed. What ??? No rationale. No reason. Just a cold inhuman robotic ‘Computer Says No’ I am disgusted with this appalling lack of communication. Plus between me and my husband that is about 7000 points not paid out. Roughly £70. Guess where that has gone? Don’t trust.

Interesting Surveys and Fair Rewards

I've enjoyed using YouGov. The surveys are usually not too long, the topics vary a lot, and the rewards are fair for the time spent. I like that the questions cover many different subjects, which keeps things interesting. Overall, it's been a positive experience and one of the better survey platforms I've used.
