Focusline Surveys Review Online

I came across a new survey site that I haven’t heard before, Focusline Surveys.  You probably know me by now if you tend to read this blog on a weekly basis.  I love helping people find the right companies online.  I don’t do positive reviews because I’m paid, nor do I just throw out positive reviews to get paid for it.  These reviews are the real deal.

I hate pointing people to spam sites, as well as sites that require you download software to get going.

Upon getting to this site, I just laughed a little because the site design is very poor.  While it is easy to get around, I have found that any site that has a poor design, generally has poor offers,  as well as service.

Right off the bat, they tell you that you can get $5 just for joining, which sounds like a fantastic deal.  Established in 1996, they claim to be partnered with another company called “Surveyhead”.

Upon joining, I had found that this site is Surveyhead.  The only difference between the site is the design.

Is this a bad thing?

Well, if you like Surveyhead, you will probably like this site, but let me tell you what I think about them.

For starters, the minimum balance to cash out is just insane.  You’re going to have to reach a $25 limit before you can cash out.  This is considerably high for a survey based company.  While some companies are great and have no minimum payout, you’re going to find that there are others than have $10.  $25 is very high for the industry and this is one factor that many survey takers look at.

The other thing that I didn’t like, as well as what I found with others is that the surveys take forever on average.  Sure, I can give a company 7-14 days to approve me, but you may find that you can have a survey sitting there in the pending stages forever!

I hate waiting for my money and if you want to take surveys for a year to get only $25 in return, you’re going to notice that it really isn’t a great return on your investment.  While they do pay and the members have proof, you’re going to find that it is truly like pulling teeth to have fun.

Overall, I would like to give this site a solid D.  I don’t like the long waits, I hate the minimum payout, and I’m definitely not a fan, so don’t let the $5 minimum deceive you!
