Qmee Fraud Real Review

REAL REVIEW! (FEB 1ST/2024)

I WOULD GIVE ZERO STARS IF IT WOULD LET ME! FRAUD!

I signed up for QMEE years ago started using it, what a joke ONLY MADE A COUPLE DOLLARS cuz it pays out in cents instead of dollars, if u are in Canada u barely make any money from it. DON'T BOTHER! So I then deleted the app & recently back in January I decided to download it again & give it another shot. Once u try & start a survey it'll either kick u out of the survey or it will take u through two or three rabbit holes & let u start a survey after u answer a whole crap ton of questions that have nothing to do with the survey, only to be kicked out of the survey if u answer something the way they don't like. This happens with almost every single survey. In a week I've only managed to cash out $7.00! Now playing the games is even more hilarious because it takes u days to even accomplish one task which doesn't pay very much again (in cents not dollars), then when u go to cash out from that game it takes "90" days for them to deliver ur payout.(YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT)!

Now the reason for this review is cause of the fraudulent activity that has happened on my credit card account as off 2AM,!...According to my credit card company. So,...Most of the surveys ask personal information bank account info, ur full name & D.O.B, where u live, I even got questions asked about banking info, all of this kind of information that is super personal. It's funny how after I complained to Qmee that they were asking me personal questions & trying to sign me up for things that all of a sudden fraudulent activity happens. So apparently my credit card company got a call at 2AM this morning (I was asleep), from someone trying to say that they were me & asked them to cancel my credit card & send another in the mail. But, upon checking with my credit card company, my address on file & the address that the person gave them to send the new credit card to was incorrect. They are refusing to tell me the phone number in which this person called from & the address that was given. After being transferred to five different representatives and being on the phone for almost an hour, I had to get them to cancel this credit card & now send me another one in the mail after they didn't have my permission. Not only is this a huge waste of my time this is very concerning, & a whole lot of unwanted stress. This should be against the law if it isn't already & I feel like Qmee should be shut down especially in Canada. Unfortunately after reading some reviews online about the app, I also see one or two other people who have had fraudulent activity happen to their bank account or credit card. STAY FAR AWAY! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME! I STARTED A CIVIL LAWSUIT AGAINST QMEE!

Recommendation: STAY FAR AWAY FROM THEM!! NOT WORTH THE STRESS!

Qmee Hit or Miss: My Experience with Qmee Surveys

So, I wanted to share my experience with Qmee. I've tried their service a few times now and I have to say, it's hit or miss. Sometimes I make a bit of money, but other times it feels like a complete waste of time.

One thing that really frustrates me is when I'm halfway or more through a survey and they reject me. It's happened to me a few times now and it's really annoying. I understand that not every survey will be a good fit for me, but it feels like they should do a better job of screening them before they make them available.

Just recently, I completed a survey that was supposed to take 9 minutes and pay 39 cents. It ended up taking much longer than that and when I finally finished, they rejected me and I didn't get paid anything. It was a survey about salty snacks and I gave them my honest opinion, but it seems like they didn't like what I had to say.

Overall, I think Qmee can be a decent way to make a bit of extra money, but you have to be careful. Some surveys are a waste of time and it's frustrating when you put in the effort and don't get paid. I hope the folks at Qmee will take a closer look at the surveys they offer and make sure they're worth our time.

Qmee Qmee Survey Site Review: Rewards Not Credited, Poor Customer Service, and Glitches - A Real Letdown!

Qmee used to be the best survey site around, but lately, it's been a real letdown. I've been a loyal user for about 4 years now, but in the past 3 or 4 months, I've never seen them so bad at rewarding. It's really frustrating!

This morning, I completed 5 surveys, and every single time, I was thanked by the provider, taken back to Qmee, and shown my reward. But guess what? The reward never gets credited to my account, and it doesn't show up in my history. This happens on a daily basis, and it's really starting to get on my nerves.

I'm getting fed up with having to report this to Qmee all the time. And every time I do, they blame it on a glitch with the survey provider and never take any responsibility. It's like they don't care about their users at all! And then sometimes, you have to wait 10 days for the possibility that it might get credited to your account. That's just not acceptable!

Their customer service is no help either. They just send you the same old "why surveys might be rejected" reply, which doesn't solve anything. And I see that numerous other people on here are having the exact same problem. It's not just me!

I really wish they would fix this issue, but it seems like they don't want to bother. That's why I'm giving them a negative review. If they don't start taking their users seriously, they're going to lose a lot of business.

Qmee Qmee Review: A Complete Waste of Time and Effort

This website, Qmee, is just terrible. They claim that they will only give you surveys that are suitable for you based on the information you provide in your profile. But why is it that when most of the surveys ask for information that is already on your profile, they still find you unsuitable for the survey? It's just ridiculous!

And don't even get me started on the number of surveys that you get almost all the way through, only to be told that you're not suitable and get paid nothing. It's not just annoying, it's downright suspicious. They ask for so much personal information like where you live, the ages of your children, and your income, only to tell you that you're not suitable for the survey. What a waste of time!

What really pushed me to write this review was when I got 97% through a 10-minute survey, only to be told that I wasn't suitable. It's just not fair! And to make matters worse, the "contact us" option doesn't even work. I've tried emailing them multiple times, but I never get a reply.

And it's not just me. I've attempted/completed 10 surveys, but I've only been paid for 2 of them. That's just unacceptable. And to add insult to injury, I've had 2 surveys that were 97% complete after 10 minutes, only to be told that I don't meet the criteria. What a joke!

Overall, I would not recommend Qmee to anyone. It's a complete waste of time and effort. Don't bother with this website, you'll only end up frustrated and disappointed.

Qmee Qmee is a Scam: My Account was Blocked and Earnings Stolen!

I just can't believe that sites like Qmee are allowed to exist. I've been using this site for a few years now, and I've contributed to it occasionally. However, last May, Qmee suddenly informed me that there had been complaints from survey providers about me giving inconsistent answers. This was a total lie, by the way.

After that, Qmee started rejecting almost all of my completed surveys, even after spending 20+ minutes working on them. When I complained about this, they basically told me that it was my own fault and that they would do nothing about it.

Now, when I tried to log in last week, my account was blocked. I received no word or notice that this was happening. After contacting Qmee, they told me that my account was closed because of my inconsistent answers, which they can provide no proof of. They also told me that the money I had accumulated was now forfeited to them. This is an unbelievable scam they are running!

I plan to get in touch with the BBB and try to chase down my stolen earnings. Please avoid this vile and repulsive scam site. I don't want anyone else to go through what I have.

Qmee Qmee Review: The Best Survey Site for Quick Cash!

So, I've been trying out a bunch of survey sites that I found on Google, and I gotta say, Qmee is my absolute favorite! I'm surprised that more people aren't talking about it. The best part is that there's no minimum amount you have to earn before you can cash out. No matter how much you make, you can cash out right away. I use PayPal to get my money, but I'm not sure if other payment services work the same way. But with Qmee, you can even cash out as little as $0.10! I've never seen another survey site that pays so little, but even when they do, the surveys are super short.

Usually, I can make about $1 or $2 in just 15 minutes or less, depending on how easy the survey is. They cover all sorts of topics, like politics, TV and movies, healthcare, and how COVID has affected your life. There are so many different options to choose from, and the more surveys you do, the higher your "streak" gets. And the higher your streak, the more money you can earn on each survey!

I just want to say thank you to whoever made Qmee. It's been a lifesaver for me. I can spend all day playing with my 3-year-old, do a couple of surveys, and make enough money to pay for gas for the day. If you're just starting out, you can easily make $15 a day. I usually only do surveys when I'm bored (which, did I mention, I have a 3-year-old?), so it only takes me a few minutes to an hour or two a day.

I even included a picture to show you that I cashed out 25 cents. It says it'll take an hour to show up, but it's always been added to my account really quickly. So, if you're looking for an easy way to make some extra cash, definitely check out Qmee!

Qmee Qmee Review: Is Your Information Really Safe?

I gotta say, I was a bit skeptical about Qmee at first. But after using it for a while, I gotta say, it's not too shabby. However, there's one thing that's been bugging me lately - the whole "information not being kept" thing.

Now, I'm not the most tech-savvy person out there (although I know more than you might think), but I know that information is recorded. And I know it's pretty easy to prove whether or not it's actually deleted. So when Qmee says that none of the information you give for a survey that gets declined is kept or used by the survey provider, I gotta call BS.

I mean, come on. I was in the middle of a 25-minute survey and literally on the LAST classification question, it declined with 0 cents given. That just seems fishy to me.

So Qmee, I'm calling you out. I want to see some proof that this information is actually deleted and not taken by the survey provider. And don't give me some BS reply saying to email you guys. I want to see some concrete evidence.

Now, I know for a fact that you won't provide this proof or say you can't. And that just proves my point. If you can't prove it, then you don't know for sure. And that's not a good look.

Don't get me wrong, I still like using Qmee. But I think they need to be more transparent about how they handle user information. It's not a good look to make claims that you can't back up.

So, to sum it up - Qmee, I like you, but I need some proof. And to everyone else reading this, just be aware that Qmee may not be as transparent as they claim to be.

Qmee Qmee Review: My Go-To Survey Portal with Automated Paypal Cashouts and No Minimum Cashout

I've been using Qmee for a good few years now, and I have to say, it's become my go-to survey portal. I didn't plan on it being that way, but the competitors just weren't cutting it anymore. They were taking too long for me to build up enough in-service currency to cash out, and when I did, I had to make sure it was before a certain time, or else I'd have to wait until the next day. Qmee, on the other hand, automates their Paypal cashouts, and there's no minimum cashout. That's a huge plus for me.

I've seen a lot of negative reviews about Qmee, but most of them are from people who haven't been actively using survey portals or incentive websites for nearly 10 years. I've been using them for 13 years, and I've been actively doing survey portals for 8-10 years. Here's the thing about ALL survey portals: they only act as a place to streamline survey taking. Each card you click for a new survey will redirect you to that survey provider's platform. It could be Qualtronics, SurveyMonkey, etc. If you see a different logo that isn't Qmee, that means you were redirected. This is standard on any survey portal. It's been that way for nearly 20 years in the history of online surveys for cash.

Survey providers will take a long time to screen you for your demographics. I'm sorry to those of you who have wasted your time, but this does NOT reflect on Qmee at all. It's YOUR job to report these, so that the community does not waste their time. Qmee WILL actually take these down, because the time spent isn't worth the cashout, even if it's $2.50. If you've taken over 20 minutes to simply qualify, stop and report the survey. Also report surveys that ask for too much information or try to sign you up.

I've been impressed with Qmee as it's grown, and that's why I've slowly gravitated toward using them more. I actually find myself using the mobile app more. I have a good smartphone for it, and I've rarely had problems. Whenever I do, I report the bugs, and they fix it. I make sure that I'm polite and respectful, and they in turn have treated me well. Sometimes it may take 3-5 days for someone to contact me, but they're not a vending machine. Real people are responding. As I've said earlier, they offer AUTOMATED CASHOUTS through Paypal. There is NO minimum either. You should appreciate that, lol. Competitors will force you to meet a $10 minimum, them move the goal post several times, before making you give up. And then they'll make you wait a week. Qmee treats you right.

If you've been blocked from cashing out, or can't take surveys -- I'm gonna be honest. I sincerely think you may have cheated by entering fake details in nearly every survey, and couldn't keep your demographics straight. You can't be an Asian mom one day and a Turkish sultan the next. That's not how it works. You have to be honest, even if you have days where you're not qualifying for anything. There often is a "hot time" every day, but it's different each day, and you just have to learn how things work over time. On EST, I've found between 11am-4pm works best. Judge it based on that. It could change over time, but right now that's what works for me.

I've spent a lot of time on Qmee, and have actually found I can make a few bucks a day if I stay persistent. In most cases, low paying, shorter surveys have worked for me, because a little bit adds up quickly, vs trying all the high dollar, longer ones. And I'm honest with my demographic. You have to make sure your Qmee profile is up to date, so if you've moved, got married, had kids, be sure you updated that.

A lot of these negative reviews keep blaming Qmee, but most of the issues have been about survey providers. The partners/providers are very strict, and aren't afraid to block you. The fact I've survived this long means I know what I'm talking about. And I've seen these same partners on Theorem and similar portals too, not just Qmee. I've found out how to get the partners to like me, so you actually can take my word for it.

Qmee Qmee Review: Sleek Interface But Frustrating Disqualifications and Lack of Compensation

As someone who has been participating in online opinion surveys for quite some time, I was immediately intrigued by Qmee due to their sleek and modern user interface. I had high hopes that they would offer a unique and engaging survey experience that would set them apart from the many other survey sites out there. Unfortunately, despite their impressive appearance, I quickly ran into some frustrating roadblocks.

One of the most frustrating aspects of taking surveys through Qmee is the issue of being disqualified from surveys way too often. For those who are unfamiliar, many surveys will disqualify you from participating based on certain demographics or other factors that are determined early on in the survey. I found that with Qmee, I was being disqualified from surveys at an alarmingly high rate, which was a real disappointment. To make matters worse, I wasn't being compensated for the time and effort I had already put into those surveys before being disqualified.

It's worth noting that this isn't an issue unique to Qmee - many survey sites struggle with high disqualification rates. However, Qmee's rate seemed particularly egregious to me. It got to the point where I was spending more time trying to qualify for surveys than actually taking them, which was frustrating and discouraging.

Ultimately, I made the decision to stop using Qmee due to these issues. As promising as the site may seem at first glance, the frequent disqualifications and lack of compensation for those disqualifications really took a toll and made it feel like a waste of time. I hope that Qmee will take these criticisms to heart and work on improving the user experience, as there is certainly potential there. For now, though, I'll be sticking to other survey sites that offer a more consistent and fair experience.

I have been using qmee for months now, and it has been a great experience. The best part is that you can earn a quick $5 or even more in a day depending on how many surveys you complete.

The payment system is seamless, and once you cashout, the payment comes directly into your PayPal account swiftly. The best part is that the payments are credited to my PayPal account in usually 1 minute, or most of the time, within 10 to 20 seconds.

The speed of payment is what sets qmee.com apart from other earning platforms. It is the fastest payments and best app I know of, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to earn money online. Another exciting thing about qmee.com is that there is no limit to how much you have to earn to cashout, which means you can cash out whenever you want.

In conclusion, qmee.com is one of the best platforms to earn money online. It is user-friendly, has a vast range of surveys that pay well, and offers speedy payments with no limits. So, if you're looking for a legit and reliable platform to earn some extra cash, try qmee.com, and I promise you will love it!

Qmee Qmee Review: Easy and Reliable Cash Payout, but Recent Issue with PayPal Account Lockout

As someone who is always on the lookout for easy ways to earn a little bit of extra cash, I was excited to stumble upon Qmee. I signed up shortly after the start of the new year and was pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and the decent amount of available surveys. Plus, the cash payout was speedy and reliable - I was able to earn a few extra pounds in no time!

However, I have unfortunately run into a bit of an issue recently. For some reason, I am no longer able to cash out my earnings even though I am still able to complete surveys. I'm not sure what's going on, but I received an error message that reads: "Cashout to a new PayPal account is temporarily disabled due to recent account activity. Please check your email for any actions you need to take to enable cashouts to a new PayPal account." It's frustrating to feel like I'm locked out of my earnings, and I'm not sure what actions I might need to take to address the issue.

I've tried reaching out to support for help, but unfortunately, they haven't been particularly responsive or helpful. I'm hoping that by sharing my experience here, I might be able to get some attention from Qmee agents who can help me figure out what's going on and resolve the issue. Despite this hiccup, I'm still hopeful that Qmee can be a great way to earn some extra cash, and I'm eager to get back to completing surveys and cashing out my earnings - if only I could figure out what's gone wrong!

Qmee Qmee Review: Has the Popular Online Survey Site Lost its Touch?

When it comes to online survey sites, Qmee has had its ups and downs. As someone who has used the platform for seven years, I have witnessed a number of changes over that time. Unfortunately, the upgrade that occurred last year in August was not a positive one. The day after the upgrade was implemented, the quality of the surveys seemed to decline drastically. While it used to be the case that 80 percent of surveys were approved and only 20 percent were declined, now those numbers have flipped - 90 percent of surveys are now being declined.

As someone who has become accustomed to using Qmee on a regular basis, this change has been frustrating to say the least. While the site claimed that things would get better this year, that simply hasn't been the case. There was a brief period where it seemed like there was light at the end of the tunnel, but that progress was short-lived. Since then, the high rate of declined surveys has persisted.

As someone who cares about getting the most out of their online survey experience, I have come to the conclusion that perhaps Qmee's time has passed. It's disappointing, but the reality is that the site doesn't seem to be meeting the needs of its users anymore. In fact, it often feels like the platform should be renamed "decline me" given the high rate of survey rejections.

I will hold out hope that things may improve in the future, but for now I'm exploring other online survey options that may be more fruitful.

Qmee Qmee Review: Locked Out of My Account With $100 Earnings

I recently had an unfortunate experience while using Qmee, a website that pays users to take surveys and conduct online searches. My account was locked, preventing me from taking any new surveys or cashing out my earnings. This was a major issue for me, as I had nearly $100 in earnings that I was unable to access.

When I reached out to the Qmee customer service team, they initially responded and informed me that my account was being investigated to ensure that I was not using multiple accounts. I provided proof that I was only using one account, but despite my efforts, I was met with multiple unresponsive emails.

Despite my attempts to resolve the issue with Qmee, my account was ultimately placed on dormant status. This means that Qmee will claim any funds that were left in my account due to inactivity.

It's extremely disappointing to have such a negative experience with Qmee, as I truly believed that the website was a legitimate way to earn money from home. I caution others to be wary of this site and to not fall for any potential scams.

Qmee Qmee review: Locked out of my account and earnings gone - a cautionary tale for survey-takers

As an avid survey-taker for many years, I was excited when I found out about Qmee. With the option to cash out through PayPal and a low cashout minimum, I couldn't wait to give it a try. The first few weeks went smoothly, and I was able to accumulate a decent amount of funds. However, my positive experience quickly came to an end when I was suddenly locked out of my account and all my earnings were gone.

Qmee claimed that I had been flagged by their survey partners, which I found preposterous. I participate in surveys on multiple reputable sites, and have never been banned for any reason. I couldn't understand why Qmee would take such drastic action without any warning or explanation, especially given my clean track record on other platforms.

It's disappointing that Qmee would choose to handle the situation in such an unprofessional manner. While I do understand that they may want to protect themselves from fraudulent users, I believe that they should have provided me with more detailed explanations of what was going on, or at least communicated with me before locking me out of my account.

As a result of my negative experience with Qmee, I feel compelled to share my story with others. While I understand that some people may still find the site useful, I urge others to be cautious and to read about others' experiences before committing to using Qmee. Ultimately, I hope that Qmee will take steps to improve their communication and customer support, and treat their survey-takers with more respect and transparency.

Qmee Qmee Survey Site Review: A Disappointing Experience with No Guarantee of Payment

I recently had an unfortunate experience using Qmee (qmee.com) when attempting to complete surveys on their platform. After what felt like an endless stream of long surveys, I was met with disappointment when every single one I finished were "declined," and I was not compensated for my time. Qmee provides no guarantee that survey takers will be paid upon completion, and this is a stark difference from other survey sites such as mTurk. Not only is the pay already low, but when you're doing it all for nothing, it feels like nothing more than slave labor. I must admit that I am concerned that companies using Qmee may be taking advantage of survey takers and essentially stealing our intellectual property without compensation. This has left me feeling frustrated and unsure about the legitimacy of Qmee's practices.

Unfortunately, it seems that most of the surveys offered on Qmee are scams, wasting survey takers' time and energy. As someone who takes surveys seriously, it's concerning to see that Qmee doesn't seem to be appropriately regulating their survey offerings to ensure their users are met with legitimate surveys. In fact, I'm so frustrated with my experience that I'm considering reporting Qmee for enabling this fraudulent activity.

In the end, I truly wanted to love Qmee and believe in its potential as a valid survey site, but the reality is that they've left me feeling disappointed and used. As a survey taker, my time and effort are valuable, and it's disheartening to see that Qmee doesn't seem to value that as well.

Qmee Qmee Review: Disappointing Experience and Unfair Treatment

I had a rather disappointing experience with Qmee (qmee.com) and would like to share my honest feedback. Initially, I was quite hopeful about using this platform, given the many positive reviews I had come across. However, things started taking a turn for the worse almost immediately. Despite filling out my profile accurately and providing relevant information, Qmee flagged me and barely provided me with any surveys to complete.

Furthermore, when I finally earned around 8 dollars and tried to cash out my hard-earned rewards, Qmee terminated my account indefinitely without any valid reason. I was left feeling totally frustrated and helpless, especially given that I had had no such problems working with other similar survey websites like Branded Surveys.

In my opinion, this kind of unfair treatment doesn't sit right with any sincere person and makes me question the integrity and reliability of Qmee as an online survey platform. Why the suspension of an account for no apparent reason? It is a question that remains unanswered.

Sadly, I would rate Qmee rather low due to my wholly unsatisfactory experience, notwithstanding the fact that it does have a 50/50 relevance rate. To the people who are trying to insert political bias with their #letsgobrandon hashtag, it is irrelevant and baseless.

In conclusion, I would advise anyone considering Qmee to exercise caution and carefully review their terms and conditions before venturing into it.

Qmee Qmee: The Best Survey Site with Great Pay and User Experience

When it comes to survey companies, Qmee really stands out for me. I've been using their platform for a while now, and I can confidently say that they offer the best payout compared to other survey sites I've tried. The surveys are usually short and sweet, and even the longer ones are at least 10-15 minutes long, which isn't too bad.

Now, it's true that you might get disqualified from a survey at some point, but Qmee actually has a really effective way of handling these situations. If you've taken a survey all the way to the end, only to get kicked out without receiving any payment, you can report the issue to Qmee. They will then ensure that the same thing doesn't happen to anyone else by removing the survey from their site. I think that really shows how much Qmee values their users and their experience on the site.

Another thing I appreciate about Qmee is how easy their dashboard is to use. It has a clean and simple layout that makes it easy to find your way around the site. And when it comes to making money, I can definitely say that Qmee is one of the best survey sites out there. I've found that I can spend a whole day taking surveys and actually make a decent amount of money. It's not a get-rich-quick scheme, but it's a great way to earn some extra cash if you have the time to spare.

Overall, I highly recommend Qmee to anyone looking to make some money from surveys. They have a great payout, a responsive and user-friendly platform, and they really prioritize their users' experiences. Give it a try and see for yourself!

Qmee Cashing Out to PayPal

11/08/2023

16:06

After having taken 2 surveys and earning 39p I decided to cash out there and then as there is no minimum amount. However; in doing so the Qmee app gave me an error message - the request to cash-out wasn’t carried out, but the money I’d accumulated had still been taken out of my account, even though it said it hadn’t gone through due to error.

Desired outcome: To either get the money 0.39p back in the account or to have the cash out complete successfully.

Qmee Qmee Review: Easy and Reliable Cash Payout, but Recent Issue with PayPal Account Lockout

As someone who is always on the lookout for easy ways to earn a little bit of extra cash, I was excited to stumble upon Qmee. I signed up shortly after the start of the new year and was pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and the decent amount of available surveys. Plus, the cash payout was speedy and reliable - I was able to earn a few extra pounds in no time!

However, I have unfortunately run into a bit of an issue recently. For some reason, I am no longer able to cash out my earnings even though I am still able to complete surveys. I'm not sure what's going on, but I received an error message that reads: "Cashout to a new PayPal account is temporarily disabled due to recent account activity. Please check your email for any actions you need to take to enable cashouts to a new PayPal account." It's frustrating to feel like I'm locked out of my earnings, and I'm not sure what actions I might need to take to address the issue.

I've tried reaching out to support for help, but unfortunately, they haven't been particularly responsive or helpful. I'm hoping that by sharing my experience here, I might be able to get some attention from Qmee agents who can help me figure out what's going on and resolve the issue. Despite this hiccup, I'm still hopeful that Qmee can be a great way to earn some extra cash, and I'm eager to get back to completing surveys and cashing out my earnings - if only I could figure out what's gone wrong!

Qmee Qmee Review: Is it Worth Your Time and Effort for Extra Cash?

So, I just got started with Qmee yesterday and I gotta say, I was able to earn a whole $0.03 in just a few minutes of answering questions. Now, I know that might not sound like much, but hey, every penny counts, right?

The thing is, most of the surveys they give you are pretty long and can take up to 5 or 10 minutes to complete. And just when you think you're about to earn some cash, they hit you with the "sorry, you don't qualify" or "we don't need any more participants" at the very end. It's a bit frustrating, but I guess that's just how it goes sometimes.

I decided to try out one of the other ways to earn cash on the site and signed up for an offer that I was actually interested in. It was worth $32, so I was pretty excited to see how much cashback I could earn. But then, the site just stopped working. I mean, come on! I didn't even get any cashback for my efforts.

I reached out to their support team, but so far, I haven't received a response from an actual human. It's just been canned responses, which is a bit disappointing. I'm hoping to hear back from someone soon, but we'll see.

Overall, I think Qmee has some potential to earn some extra cash, but it's definitely not a get-rich-quick scheme. You have to be patient and willing to put in some time and effort. And even then, there's no guarantee that you'll actually earn anything. But hey, it's worth a shot, right?

Qmee Qmee Review: A Scam Website That's Not Worth Your Time

Qmee is a website that claims to pay you for taking surveys, but in reality, it's nothing but a scam. Sure, they'll pay you, but you'll have to go through dozens of surveys before you can even earn twenty-five cents. And even then, you'll be blamed for not qualifying for the surveys.

Don't be fooled by their 1 cent cash out policy. It may sound tempting, but it's not worth your time. I use Qmee to earn some extra cash for beer money, but it takes me over two hours just to make a little over two dollars. It's the most incompetent company I've ever seen, and they love keeping your data.

Some days, I spend nearly six hours taking surveys just to make two dollars. It's not worth it. Qmee is a waste of time, and you don't want to use this site.

Qmee Qmee Review: Locked Out of My Account With $100 Earnings

I recently had an unfortunate experience while using Qmee, a website that pays users to take surveys and conduct online searches. My account was locked, preventing me from taking any new surveys or cashing out my earnings. This was a major issue for me, as I had nearly $100 in earnings that I was unable to access.

When I reached out to the Qmee customer service team, they initially responded and informed me that my account was being investigated to ensure that I was not using multiple accounts. I provided proof that I was only using one account, but despite my efforts, I was met with multiple unresponsive emails.

Despite my attempts to resolve the issue with Qmee, my account was ultimately placed on dormant status. This means that Qmee will claim any funds that were left in my account due to inactivity.

It's extremely disappointing to have such a negative experience with Qmee, as I truly believed that the website was a legitimate way to earn money from home. I caution others to be wary of this site and to not fall for any potential scams.

Qmee Qmee Review: A Scam and a Ripoff - Don't Waste Your Time!

I had to quit my job because of my health issues and was searching for an effortless way to earn some extra cash. That's when I stumbled upon Qmee, a website that pays you for taking surveys. I started taking surveys on Qmee and it was going well until one day, I found out that my account was locked. I was bewildered and didn't know what to do. I contacted their support team and they told me that their survey providers didn't like me and that my account was permanently terminated. I was taken aback as I didn't even know what I did wrong.

I also take surveys on other websites and never had any issues with my account being locked. Moreover, I didn't receive payment for several surveys that I had completed before being booted out. I tried to at least get the money I had earned, but they wouldn't even let me do that. The help team was unresponsive and I felt like I was being scammed. If I could give zero stars, I would.

In conclusion, I would not recommend Qmee to anyone. It's a scam and a ripoff. They lock your account for no reason and don't pay you for the surveys you complete. It's a waste of time and effort. There are better survey websites out there that actually pay you for your time and effort. Don't waste your time on Qmee.

Qmee Qmee review: Locked out of my account and earnings gone - a cautionary tale for survey-takers

As an avid survey-taker for many years, I was excited when I found out about Qmee. With the option to cash out through PayPal and a low cashout minimum, I couldn't wait to give it a try. The first few weeks went smoothly, and I was able to accumulate a decent amount of funds. However, my positive experience quickly came to an end when I was suddenly locked out of my account and all my earnings were gone.

Qmee claimed that I had been flagged by their survey partners, which I found preposterous. I participate in surveys on multiple reputable sites, and have never been banned for any reason. I couldn't understand why Qmee would take such drastic action without any warning or explanation, especially given my clean track record on other platforms.

It's disappointing that Qmee would choose to handle the situation in such an unprofessional manner. While I do understand that they may want to protect themselves from fraudulent users, I believe that they should have provided me with more detailed explanations of what was going on, or at least communicated with me before locking me out of my account.

As a result of my negative experience with Qmee, I feel compelled to share my story with others. While I understand that some people may still find the site useful, I urge others to be cautious and to read about others' experiences before committing to using Qmee. Ultimately, I hope that Qmee will take steps to improve their communication and customer support, and treat their survey-takers with more respect and transparency.

Qmee Qmee Review: Has the Popular Online Survey Site Lost its Touch?

When it comes to online survey sites, Qmee has had its ups and downs. As someone who has used the platform for seven years, I have witnessed a number of changes over that time. Unfortunately, the upgrade that occurred last year in August was not a positive one. The day after the upgrade was implemented, the quality of the surveys seemed to decline drastically. While it used to be the case that 80 percent of surveys were approved and only 20 percent were declined, now those numbers have flipped - 90 percent of surveys are now being declined.

As someone who has become accustomed to using Qmee on a regular basis, this change has been frustrating to say the least. While the site claimed that things would get better this year, that simply hasn't been the case. There was a brief period where it seemed like there was light at the end of the tunnel, but that progress was short-lived. Since then, the high rate of declined surveys has persisted.

As someone who cares about getting the most out of their online survey experience, I have come to the conclusion that perhaps Qmee's time has passed. It's disappointing, but the reality is that the site doesn't seem to be meeting the needs of its users anymore. In fact, it often feels like the platform should be renamed "decline me" given the high rate of survey rejections.

I will hold out hope that things may improve in the future, but for now I'm exploring other online survey options that may be more fruitful.

Qmee Qmee Review: Frustration and Disappointment with this Survey Site

Hey there, I just wanted to share my thoughts on Qmee. I know there are some negative reviews out there, and honestly, I can see why. This site can be a bit of a pain sometimes. You're supposed to be able to complete surveys and earn money, but it doesn't always work out that way.

I've tried to do a lot of surveys on Qmee over the past week, but I've only made money on a few of them. Most of the time, I'll get partway through a survey and then it'll tell me that it's full or that I'm not compatible. Or sometimes it'll just shut down in the middle of the survey and tell me that I'm only allowed to do one survey at a time. But I'm not doing any other surveys! It's frustrating.

And I've also heard some people say that Qmee steals your information. I can't say for sure whether that's true or not, but it does make me a little nervous.

Overall, I'd say that Qmee is one of the worst survey sites out there. If you're looking to make some extra cash, you're probably better off looking elsewhere. But if you do decide to give Qmee a try, just be prepared for some frustration and disappointment.

Qmee Qmee Survey Site Review: A Disappointing Experience with No Guarantee of Payment

I recently had an unfortunate experience using Qmee (qmee.com) when attempting to complete surveys on their platform. After what felt like an endless stream of long surveys, I was met with disappointment when every single one I finished were "declined," and I was not compensated for my time. Qmee provides no guarantee that survey takers will be paid upon completion, and this is a stark difference from other survey sites such as mTurk. Not only is the pay already low, but when you're doing it all for nothing, it feels like nothing more than slave labor. I must admit that I am concerned that companies using Qmee may be taking advantage of survey takers and essentially stealing our intellectual property without compensation. This has left me feeling frustrated and unsure about the legitimacy of Qmee's practices.

Unfortunately, it seems that most of the surveys offered on Qmee are scams, wasting survey takers' time and energy. As someone who takes surveys seriously, it's concerning to see that Qmee doesn't seem to be appropriately regulating their survey offerings to ensure their users are met with legitimate surveys. In fact, I'm so frustrated with my experience that I'm considering reporting Qmee for enabling this fraudulent activity.

In the end, I truly wanted to love Qmee and believe in its potential as a valid survey site, but the reality is that they've left me feeling disappointed and used. As a survey taker, my time and effort are valuable, and it's disheartening to see that Qmee doesn't seem to value that as well.

Qmee Qmee Suspended My Account Unfairly - Scam Alert!

So, I've been a member of Qmee for a long time and I've always had a good standing. However, my account got suspended recently and I was really confused about why that happened. I reached out to their support team for help, but the answers they gave me were not helpful at all. I was really frustrated and didn't know what to do.

But then, I stumbled upon a post on Reddit that explained everything. Apparently, the Qmee site/app was under maintenance for a whole week at the beginning of 2023, which prevented users from participating in any surveys. And many of the surveys that I tried to do were either full or experienced errors, which I reported to Qmee. But apparently, letting them know about these issues got me flagged for suspicious activity, which is ridiculous.

Now, Qmee is refusing to let me cash out my remaining earnings, which is really unfair. I feel like they're scamming people and getting away with it. I think they should be investigated by the BBB because this is not right. I used to recommend Qmee to my friends and family, but now I would never do that again. It's really disappointing to see a company that I trusted turn out to be like this.

Qmee Qmee: A Fraudulent Platform that Fails to Pay Out Earnings

I am extremely disappointed with my experience using Qmee (qmee.com). Despite providing proof of a recent PayPal transaction, I was denied access to my earnings. It's clear to me that this company is fraudulent as there's no way one can fail to be fully verified and still access PayPal funds.

As a user who has been hopeful about Qmee's earning potential, this is a major setback for me. I was under the impression that it was an easy way to make some extra cash, but now I'm regretting wasting so much time on this platform.

It's concerning that there are companies out there like Qmee who are willing to take advantage of people's time and energy without offering any real chance of earning. If you're considering using this platform, I would highly recommend staying away. It's much better to invest your time in a legitimate program that truly values your efforts and pays you fairly.

Qmee Qmee Review: A Convenient Way to Earn Extra Cash, But Be Aware of Potential Issues

When it comes to online survey websites, Qmee is definitely one of the most well-known names out there. While it certainly has a lot of positive aspects to it, there are definitely some downsides to consider before jumping in.

One of the biggest issues that many users have with Qmee is getting declined or disqualified halfway through a survey. It can feel incredibly frustrating to put in a lot of time and effort only to be told that you don't qualify for the survey after all. Even more frustrating is when you do manage to complete a survey, only to find out that you're still not going to be paid for it. This is an issue that numerous Qmee users have run into, and it's definitely something to be aware of before investing too much time and energy into the site.

Another complaint that some users have made about Qmee is that they occasionally come across surveys that seem to have a racial or cultural bias. Obviously, this is a very concerning issue and one that Qmee should absolutely be taking seriously. However, the good news is that these types of surveys do seem to be relatively rare, so it's not something that most users will have to deal with too frequently.

Despite these downsides, however, there are still plenty of reasons to consider giving Qmee a try. It's a convenient and easy way to earn a bit of extra cash in your free time, and there are often a wide variety of surveys available to choose from. Plus, if you do run into any issues, Qmee's customer service team is usually fairly responsive and helpful.

All in all, while Qmee isn't perfect, it's still a solid choice for anyone looking to make a bit of extra money in their spare time. Just be aware of the potential issues you may run into and approach the site with realistic expectations.

Qmee Disappointed and frustrated with Qmee: A review of my experience earning extra cash

I recently tried out Qmee (qmee.com) as a way to earn some extra cash. Unfortunately, my experience with this website has left me feeling disappointed and frustrated. Despite completing several surveys, I have not received payment for all of them, which was incredibly disappointing.

On top of this, I have also been unable to cash out over $20, which is a significant amount. I've also reached out to customer service multiple times over the course of two weeks but haven't received a response. This lack of customer support is concerning and doesn't inspire confidence in their service.

If you're looking for an alternative, I highly recommend trying out Eureka or another similar service. I've had much better experiences with them, having cashed out over five times with no issues. Trust me, skip Qmee and look for a more reliable way to earn extra cash.

Qmee Qmee: Valuable Platform for Extra Income, But Disappointing Payment Delay and Lack of Communication

I have been using Qmee for some time now, and I am extremely pleased with the platform. It has allowed me to earn extra income, which has greatly helped me to provide for my family. However, my recent experience with their payout has left me very disappointed.

I have been waiting for over 48 hours to receive my payment, which is longer than the stated timeframe of 24 hours. I understand that delays can happen, but what frustrates me even more is that I have tried contacting their customer service team over 13 times with no response. This lack of communication has left me wondering whether Qmee will actually process my payment or not.

I hope that Qmee can understand my frustration and resolve this matter quickly. As someone who relies on their platform for financial support, it is disheartening to feel ignored and undervalued as a user. If they are overwhelmed with the volume of requests, I urge them to consider hiring more help to ensure that their customers are not neglected.

Despite this issue, I still believe that Qmee is a valuable and trustworthy site for those looking to earn extra income. I hope that my experience is just an isolated incident, and that they will continue to improve their services to better serve their users.

Qmee Qmee Review: A Waste of Time and Energy- Avoid at All Costs!

In these trying financial times, I was desperately searching for a way to earn some extra cash, and that's when I stumbled upon Qmee. The website boasted of instant payouts, which sounded too good to be true, but I decided to give it a try anyway. Unfortunately, my experience with Qmee has been far from satisfactory.

Despite my best efforts, I have spent countless hours scouring the website to find surveys that actually pay and don't result in a decline. It's frustrating when you put in time and effort into completing a survey, only to receive no rewards or compensation for your effort. It's not just disappointing; it's a complete waste of time and energy.

On top of that, I attempted to reach out to their customer service team for assistance, only to realize that there was no such thing. It's infuriating that I couldn't even complain or get my concerns addressed, let alone receive any kind of support to resolve issues. All these factors have led me to believe that Qmee is nothing but a fraudulent scam.

In conclusion, I'd advise everyone to avoid using Qmee at all costs. It's not worth your time or energy, and you're much better off investing in other legitimate sources for making money. So, don't believe their hollow promises and don't fall prey to their scams!
