Not worth it
This company will have you complete an entire survey that takes 10-20mins and then get to the end and throw up a message saying the goals were already met and not give credit. This happens so often it’s not a fluke or timing. It’s theft of your time and thoughts.
Nope skip it
No longer give cash checks and it uses a point system now. Games not recognized and you don’t get any points. Making this useless and no you cannot do surveys when you want they would discontinue your account when they’re done using and wasting your time. Going to delete account and report them. Been months since I got points all surveys is useless and not available. They send emails daily for useless surveys if they don’t use surveys anymore remove it from your site. I only got points from the games. Then they try to kick you when you don’t do their surveys when you do its unfortunately closed. How? when I just receive the survey. Company is down bad they scammy and gets your data for free by making bad surveys.

Waste of time
The site used to be good but after they updated last year it’s become terrible. I’ll complete a survey, answering all questions, and then they decide at the very end I don’t qualify. That’s something that should have been done at the beginning, not after I completed the survey. It’s become very scammy because I’m sure they’re still collecting that survey data and just not paying out.
Also you can only cash out in specific increments now and only get gift cards.
As soon as I reach the cash out amount, I’m closing my account.
I’d stay far away from this company if I were you.

Works great! High rewards!
Good job pinecone!!
Used to be Good, Now Terrible
I’ve been a longtime member and used to consistently be able to complete surveys and test new products. Now I rarely qualify for surveys even after numerous attempts, I finish surveys to the end and receive messages that the survey is closed so I don’t get credit, and I am no longer receiving products to try. I’ll be cashing out and closing my account soon.

Used to be good
I’ve been doing surveys on Pinecone for years, 8 or maybe 9. It used to be worth it. Now every single one I attempt to do, it tells me I don’t fit the criteria.. every.single.one. Now I don’t even bother, going to delete the account. Don’t waste your time here, it’s garbage
This app sucks
Every single survey i join screens me out i cant do a single survey without getting kicked out and no customer service has able to help me this app is a waste of time
I give up!
Apparently I’m not the only one having issues with Pinecone Research. I haven’t been able to take One survey since the site updated. I finally used my old points(after losing some) to get an e-card. I became aware of all the one star reviews after considering downloading the app to my phone. It’s a definite no go for me.

Won’t let me login
I’ve been using this website successfully for months, then one day it stopped letting me login. It says my password is incorrect, but it’s the right one. And when I go to change my password I receive no email to do so. They have loved me out of my account and I haven’t been able to get very much help with this. I had $60 in my account that I can no longer access. Months of surveys down the drain!

Not the same
I used to enjoy completing the surveys, participating in research and getting rewarded. Now I have a ton of survey opportunities but never qualify. I take time to start the surveys and then never end up qualifying and don’t get any points. I got an email telling me to participate but it’s not worth my time to do so with no reward/benefit. Don’t waste your time on this one.

Not working like it used to
I have done these surveys for years but in past months the site usually tells me I don’t qualify for the survey. The other problem is it also tells me that the survey is closed when it just arrived and I opened it, the screens also lock up and then it says survey no longer available. I guess it needs updated to a better system

Do a survey and get kicked if answer one question and say you isn’t a match this is after completing 70% of the survey. Also, no longer give cash it uses a point system now and now it’s just like the other survey apps scammy and useless because you don’t get enough points to cashout and basically wasting your time. Games not recognized and you don’t get any points. Making this useless and no you cannot do surveys when you want they would discontinue your account when they’re done using and wasting your time.

I Want to Like This App
I downloaded it for the first time, understanding that new members were being given a $5 bonus for completing a survey. I haven’t received my $5. I started the survey but got kicked out of it and it hasn’t reappeared, so I haven’t been able to receive the $5 dollar bonus. I’ve contacted support and haven’t gotten a response yet. I’m waiting because I know it sometimes take time.
Having these problems makes me want to delete the app. There are many other apps to choose from but I will wait and give it a chance

Not a good upgrade
I agree that the old version was better. I can get an email notification for a survey and immediately click on it and it says survey closed. Or the survey doesn’t load, or without doing anything it says I don’t qualify for the survey. This just started when they came out with the new app
Scam
It used to be good. Now I don’t qualify for surveys like 90% of the time. Recently, I’ve even completed the surveys and get a system error message when submitting so I don’t get compensated for the survey. Customer service is a joke and just sends form letters without even acknowledging the problem. I’m fed up with them and will be closing my account after I cash out.

Used to be great
I wouldn’t call it a scam but now I don’t get qualified for the surveys anymore and it seems like I’m not the only one so most likely they’re gonna start losing people if this doesn’t get fixed.
Total waste of time
Same comments as others. Been a member for years. Enjoyed it until the app update. I haven’t qualified for a survey yet. It’s a total joke. Don’t waste your precious time. Not worth it. I’d give zero starts but in order to submit my review, I have to give at least one.
Old school version was better…
I’ve been a member for a very long time. Enjoyed the surveys, enjoyed the rewards. Present day continues to be a disappointment. Everyday I have survey invites. Today, I attempted about 6, same conclusion, screen out. I rarely qualify, every 4 months I lose points because I cannot qualify like back in the day. It’s frustrating. This once was a very enjoyable site for survey taking. Would like to find the same enjoyment again.

Funktioniert nicht
Ich habe sehr oft auf der HP Probleme, dass sich Umfragen nicht öffnen. Diese App ist nur englisch und man kann sich nicht einloggen. PW vergessen funktioniert auch nicht, da man vermutlich in dem Land nicht registriert ist. Schade um die Punkte, die man verpasst.
Scam
I have been with this company for years and it used to be good and pay out on time. Now, I don’t know what happened. I get tons of emails most say I don’t qualify. Others I do until the end and then it says I don’t qualify and they the survey is closed. Most of the time these surveys are 20-30 long. Look!! My time is valuable and worth Paying for it. I don’t work for free. I feel they want slave labor, I’m not down for that. This is the last time you will use my service for free.
