This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I am not in the US, but I take part in Samplicious surveys. Well, I say 'take part' but as the first person rightly pointed out, I have lost count of how many times I have answered loads and loads of questions only to be screened out at the last minute, with them saying either: This survey is now closed or You have not qualified for this survey! So it took them nearly to the end of the survey to find this out? It's a disgrace and I feel that Samplicious should be investigated. They show up decent survey sites, ones you can rely on to do the right thing. Grrr...

I totally agree. I just did a survey that was asking me probably 30 questions about my tire buying experiences and future decisions in this matter. I figured this was the actual survey and then it gets to what appears to be the end of the survey it says I do not qualify for this survey. I DID THE SURVEY. This is definitely something that is a bad business practice and I'm sure hinges on the illegal. They should certainly be investigated because if they are getting this market research under the belief that you will get something for it and no one actually is actually getting anything, then they are definitely on the wrong side of the law.

I've just put a complaint in to them and they want a 'screen shot' of the suvey I did. How ridiculous is that - I did the survey 2 months ago. They really should be investigated.

I agree. I've had some very unpleasant experiences with them. This morning I "did" a survey about sweeteners that looked like it was done, and then asked me if I wanted to participate in a 75 min interactive thing for $25.00. I said no, and they dq'd me. I didn't even get credit for the survey I had done. I don't think complaining to them will help. I've been doing the "survey thing" for three months now, and I'm running into this sort of thing more and more from other companies as well. It's a way of getting something (your opinion) for nothing. It stinks.

Samplicio.Ripoff.us is the very worst survey site on this planet. They should not be allowed to stay in business. A total scam site...

Hey people, when ever samplicio.ripoff shows up on one of your survey sites just delete instead of wasting your time. The survey sites will get the picture sooner or later. I hope.!

Just spent 30 mins taking a survey about refrigerated bacon and brands. Completed survey, survey said please wait while you answers are submitted and you are redirected. Took me back to Samplicio which said unfortunately I didn't qualify. RIPOFF!

This place (Samplicio) is absolutely the worst company to deal with, PERIOD! Scam artists at there finest. Someone needs to find a way to have someone investigate the company and appropriate action to be taken. I'm willing to bet I've tried over a 1000 surveys and never was approved for one, not even one. This company SUCKS no two ways about it. If someone finds a way to deal with these LOSERS let me know and I will gladly testify

Totally agree. They really can't be trusted. They have screened me out of surveys and then I had the same survey from another site which completed successfully. Absolute rip off

I think we need to start a page on facebook, and every other social media out there, to get the word out that this company is a rip off. If we all reported them to our panels, Swagbucks, Survey Junkie, etc, then eventually we will be able to get our panels to cut them off as a partner.

Well if you ever wanna learn how to fool people then take surveys on samplicious. I play a game and to earn some money there I have to take part in samplicious surveys. They keep kicking me out and never let me participate in the survey. Once, I got my chance by luck and after the last question of the survey they disqualified me and just because of them I did not receive my game money. Man if you're reading this then please note that you all are total brokes. Each and every member of your team who disqualifies me will rot in hell.

Samplicio is a survey router and not a provider. This router sucks they are tricky and disqualify you often. No contact support , no team or nothing from them either.. Samplicio denied all of my surveys all the time and kept doing big deductions from my account continuously every month but on February 8th 2022 they reversed $-19 from me on my account from a panel then decided to block me.(This is messed up). This should be illegal and investigated by the LAW. Warning do not do any of their surveys this router is shady and outdated with the same screening questions that will say “unfortunately you do not qualify”.

I'm yet another person who has been unfortunate enough to have been disqualified from Samplici.ous-directed surveys that I had already completed.

Given the volume of complaints about this service, many of which repeat the same or similar complaints, I am surprised that they haven't already been run out of business for being incompetent at what it does at best and deliberately deceptive and exploitative of survey-takers at worst.

SurveyJunkie, PCH, and all other sites that make use of Samplici.ous should drop it at once if they care at all about their users.
