Thrifty Pig

Thrift Pig is easily the worst platform in the survey industry. While many sites have minor issues, Thrift Pig fails at the most basic requirement: paying their users for completed work.

The biggest issue is their nonexistent and deceptive customer service. I spent months attempting to resolve a payment issue for a survey I successfully completed. Initially, I was in contact with a representative named Mary, who was polite at the start. However, that "kindness" was clearly a stalling tactic. As soon as I pressed for a real resolution and my earned payment, she completely vanished.

Despite sending numerous follow-up emails and requests for an explanation, I was met with total silence. It is clear that Thrift Pig's strategy is to ignore communications until the user simply gives up.

Do not be fooled by the site's layout or initial interactions. You will spend hours providing them with valuable data, but you will never see the compensation. If you value your time and want to avoid months of frustration, stay far away from Thrift Pig.

Gee whiz, how did I not know this was going to happen when I went to redeem my coins? So tired of working on a survey for 15 minutes to then be told I am not qualified. I should have known this company was a scam but noooo, I am always so hopeful that there are honest companies out there. I just wonder how much Shi#*y Piggy gets paid for the completed surveys? I am sure it's a lot more than what they DIDN'T pay me! Scam alert! Just call me white slave.

You end up wasting time because halfway in you are disqualified and after getting to the minimum requirement to cash out you can't ID yourself without getting in a phone que and NEVER GETTING A CALL BACK. Scam

Most of the surveys dont let you finish and even on the ones you do, they won't compensate you. Let's you do all the work and then tells you your answers aren't good enough. Only cashed out twice to paypal. One time took hours and the other I never received smh

Legit, however 90% of surveys result in a disqualification with no explanation. No points are thus given and the disqualified result often appear after a full 15 + minute given survey. It appears that Thrifty pig does not screen surveys or require any kind of minimum standards. I would not recommend ThriftyPig.
Update- after spending hours and hours of dead end surveys with no reward and my last ridiculous 100 question survey that according to the email notice would take 11 minutes and no reward result….Im out!
I'm sure Thrifty Pig is compensated fairly by the surveys. Survey respondents are typically screwed.
Mary G's offer to look into a specific complaint is insufficient. She already knows the problems and complaints! There aren't any standards with this website! I'm done and you shouldn't waste your time unless you want to earn pennies per hour!

This is a legit site, but they ask you questions that they need or want to know for the study and tell you that you aren't qualified so they dont have to pay you.
You already fill out some personal information for your profile that should filter out what you are and aren't qualified for, but no, they want to trick you and have you do the survey for free.
I'm pretty sure this could become a law suit.

I have been using thrifty pig for quite some time, but this time I received a used amazon gift card when I redeemed my points. I tried to redeem in 5 min after the email came, so not possible that somebody used it after I received it and NOBODY uses my gift card.
I sent an email to the customer service, but no response.

Received an updated gift card after posting this review.- Thanks

I am a new member of Thrifty Pig. I earned my first level to redeem a gift card.They give you a penny a point which is better than youll find anywhere and you only need to get to 5 dollars to cash out. Awesome

Each point you earn is worth 1 cent - and you only earn on surveys you qualify for. Too much of your info you must give up for too little in return. Pass

I completed a survey 45 minutes later and i submitted it and the response was invalid request. I snapped. Why dont you guys get it together. This has happened many times.

I am new to Thrifty Pig. I love surveys, but I can tell you that of all the surveys I've been getting have mostly been from Simpilcio. This company gets your info but does not let you complete. It seems they find their way to all survey sites. They need to be banned. I went to their site to read reviews and I'm not the only one having the problem. I'm going to have to leave if I cant get other surveys. I hope it will get better. I'm not going to try to complete a survey once I see it's from Simpilcio.

I admit when I joined this site I was skeptical it would be like all the others I've joined and hated BUT I was so wrong! This site is amazing. Gives me a chance to make some extra funds by gift cards at Amazon. Which I use for household etc. Big money saver in my pocket! And yes you make money on this site. I couldn't believe how fast I was earning doing surveys. And Mary is the sweetest lady ever! You will love her! She handles any problems you have fast! She's there for you to help with anything. I've had a few problems and she's been so nice to me and handled them all.
You seriously want to answer surveys honestly and earn real money on a good site... then hope you get invited to this one and accept! I feel blessed I got an invited!

They give you a penny a point which is better than youll find anywhere and you only need to get to 5 dollars to cash out. Awesome website, except why is it I can spend 5 to 10 minutes answering questions on s survey then suddenly I don't qualify. If that was fixed, 5 stars for sure.

I joined this site just a few months ago. At first, I wasn't sure if it because there was nothing else to do (like watch videos, do tasks or searches), only surveys. But with a low minimum cash out if $5.00, I gave it a try. I am VERY HAPPY I did. I have already cashed out a few times to my PayPal account with NO issues. They send you a code to your email account, enter it, redeem and in a few hours, or sooner, your money is in your PayPal account. They do NOT take out a processing fee like some other sites do. Give this site a chance. It really does pay.

I must say I had some concerns and doubts initially but customer service is great if they called me in the mist of an issue I was having so they are very alert and this is a great

They pay me through my PayPal payment and email amazon gift cards. They majes very happy when I give them my opinions on everything and I get rewarded
