Complaint Review: Highestpaidonlinesurveys.com

In February of this year (2005), I signed up with the website, http://www.highestpaidonlinesurveys.com. I should've known that a 'red flag' was visible when I saw no phone number or physical address for this company. There is a 'customer service link,' but, even though I sent 2 requests for a refund (I only let this go a couple of days because I strongly felt that this company wasn't going to produce any legitimate paid surveys), I didn't get a response.

I took matters into my own hands and contacted Clickbank, the company who processes payments for highestpaidonlinesurveys.com. Fortunately, I received a refund within a couple of days. However, I never received any response from this company.

Note to others out there looking for work-at-home opportunities, not just this particular website:

I really don't think there are many legitimate work-at-home opportunities out there in cyberspace. If there are, I wouldn't know who to trust to aid in my search for one. One 'red flag' for consumers to watch out for is to NOT send money to a P.O. Box/no phone number/no physical street address!

I cannot understand how there are so many people out there claiming to have 'private' databases of companies doing 'this and that.' Why would a normal, legitimate, working organization provide "So and So" with a database so that they, in turn, would 'sell' it to the general public?

BTW, I don't think people should have to PAY to get a job. Do you?? Some of those sites in cyberspace have free memberships, while others charge a fee. I do understand that people have be able to get paid for providing materials, etc., but I have a deep conviction that most of this 'paid work at home, etc.' stuff is just plain BUNK!
