CrowdtapReviews 347

I used to like crowdtap for sharing my opinion and earning some bucks in return, but since they upgraded to the new website there have been many issues namely:
- so many bugs in surveys, they tell you to choose multiple options but you can only choose one, or the surveys dont proceed as some message keeps coming, too many bugs to be fixed with the IT department.
- the language and grammar has become worse than before, its so obvious! All the spelling mistakes. Phew!
- you keep answering all these open ended discussions but never get rewarded for them, it just hangs there.
- another thing i miss is seeing the total percentage of people choosing an option.

The pros are:
You can still make points and get rewarded
- the point for each question have been upgraded to 3 from 2.
There are lot of other surveys and discussions with huge number of points available.
Hope they fix the above issues faster to give a better experience to tappers.

Crowdtap has been a great source to earn Amazon gift cards. However, there are just too many issues with the newer version. First of all, beware that it will ask you to validate your account before you can redeem your points. For some reason, my account cannot be verified no matter how many times I try. I have contacted their customer support, and all they said was "my information did not match their public record." I am really confused since I only used my facebook account to sign up, and have never entered my address at all. Now, I cannot redeem my points for a $15 gift card.

They are making changes to the website now and now I don't like it near as much. Granted they are still apparently working on it, there aren't as many missions to do for points, it's so much harder to maneuver around, u don't get the percentages of which answer people chose any more, and it's a lot harder to accrue as many points. To top it off, they have been working on it for two weeks and no sign of the end near. Wish they would have left a great thing alone. I gave them 5 stars on my last review.

I have tried surveys and I would get paid for them, but never could redeem my points to receive my money. There were always excuses as to why I couldn't get paid. But Crowdtap is the very first survey site that I actually receive gift cards when I complete enough surveys and get a certain amount of points. You won't make enough money to quit your job, but who doesn't like getting gift cards? I have also applied to test and review products and I received full products! That's a big deal for me because I have applied to other companies to test and review products and I was never considered or sent anything.

It's been more than two weeks and I haven't received any rewards. I just got two emails saying reward on its way but haven't received actual reward. Yes facebook disabled my account don't know why but what does that have to do with me receiving my rewards. My facebook account was verified when I signed up to Crowdtap. I have contacted Crowdtap support twice and still nothing. They just stopped replying to me. Don't waste your time on this site.

I was really impressed with this site while I was able to use it. You had to put a good amount of work into it to make money and get free items to try. You mostly receive amazon gift cards for every certain amount of points earned by doing actually fun surveys and polls which I liked, and some missions mailed products to your door for you to try and earn more points from. The only problem was that sometimes it took longer than expected to receive a product that I was supposed to review within a few days after receiving, therefore only getting a day or two to try and review a product. Also it sucks to be a user on this site when you have a job and a life outside of sitting at home and being able to complete mission tasks all day, because they will penalize you for not completing a survey about the item you received within the amount of time given. I wish I knew I would be banned for this because you will get banned from the entire site when you get flagged for not finishing the survey, and I feel as though that is a bit much. Also I noticed that a lot of users would just put a few words for the commenting missions where you were told to write multiple sentences and go in depth about a product and it seemed unfair that I, a user who constantly put the best into my reviews once I was able to do them, was banned over people who half $#*! their reviews and do everything quick so they can get what they want. I wish they would have given me more warnings about writing my reviews for the product I received and also given me a bit more time or somehow let them know when I receive my product so they can create a timeline from then for me to complete the mission. With that, however, it is definitely not a scam as while I was a user on it, I earned many $5 amazon gift cards pretty easily as well as full sized and a few sample sized products to try. That's the good thing about this site. So as long as you're super on top of things you will probably enjoy it.

I was pretty impressed by the fact that i received the amazon gift cards and that they went through. However, immediately after the following day i tried to log in to my amazon account and realized it was hacked. The email address and password had been changed and a purchase was made within the account. Luckily i got my account back through customer service who informed me that there is NO SUCH THING AS A 5 DOLLAR ONLINE AMAZON ECARD
