This app is telling me my phone number isn’t correct. Bad sign. Oh, well. I’ll just delete and never come back. Thanks! ### 3/5 — Only winners take surveys *2024-08-28* You're commuting. Why not take one. Waiting in line. Why not take one. You lie down, realize your career slumped and you are trapped and - Why not take a survey. ### 1/5 — Wow! Disqualified because… *2024-08-10* I just got almost all the way through a survey and thought I would finally get 44 points, but do you know what question disqualified me? THAT I WASN’T LICENSED TO PILOT A SSGN (or something like that) SUBMARINE!! What in the world does that have to do with a household appliance survey?? ### 1/5 — Not Rakuten *2024-08-07* Falsely claiming to be associated with Rakuten! ### 1/5 — Too glitchy *2024-07-23* This site continuously errors out on me! After 10 minutes of doing a survey at the end it says I didn’t qualify. Very disappointing!! ### 1/5 — This new version won’t even open *2024-06-26* I was iffy about this app since it took so much to answer any of the survey questions in order to earn. The qualification questions themselves took forever and most of the I didn’t even qualify for u spent a bunch of time to earn 1 point. Now, since the app update 2 days ago, the app won’t even open. ### 1/5 — Zero Stars *2024-06-18* I have been using this app for nearly three years now and it has progressively gotten worse. While the app was rewarding and enjoyable, it became increasingly frustrating as surveys became exceedingly difficult to complete (including late declines and partial rewards after submitting). The automated declines, due to policy enforcement, were without explanation and done prematurely (occurring after entering the survey but before actually starting the survey). Unfortunately, my account was blocked from receiving further survey invites (suddenly and without evidence of policy violations). I will not be recommending this app to others and I suggest that anyone interested in taking surveys look elsewhere. The customer support is unhelpful and at times impersonal, with generic and scripted responses that don’t address your concerns or your issues. This company has clearly lowered its standards and continues to disregard the participants that it needs to continue running. Overall, my experience with this app and the Rakuten company has been a tremendous disappointment. ### 1/5 — pays about 1$ an hour to do surveys for cash *2024-04-24* not worth it ### 1/5 — Surveys are low value for the time required. *2024-04-16* Survey rewards are extremely low value. 20 minutes at best gets you the point equivalent of 70 cents, usually much lower. Use your time elsewhere. ### 1/5 — Huge WASTE of time! *2024-04-14* This company is taking advantage of the people who fill out their worthless surveys! You spend several days on filling out the surveys to reach the 500 point minimum and in turn you just get $5! Do NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. In turn they are likely getting paid 1000 times what they are paying you. Boycott this app and flood them with 1 star reviews! Plus report them to the App Store as a scam because that’s exactly what this app is! ## Frequently asked questions about Rakuten Insight ### What is Rakuten Insight?
