I bought a new computer May1st looking to make some extra money. Decided on doing surveys online. Signed up with Panda Research. Was very excited watching money accumulate in my account. However- the more money that accumulated (pending) the more I had to: sign up for trial offers. At first I did not think it was a big deal to sign up with a company and pay $1.99-$9.99 in shipping and handling- since I felt that I would still receive a pretty good return on a $15.00-$20.00 survey and cancel the services or product during the trial period. I wrote on a calender the name of the company, and tel#. I canceled the product after about 5 days. Finally, as of today this is what my account looks like:
Accumulated: $ 304.5
Paid: $ 0.0
Pending : $ 268.5
Approved : $ 36.0

I have worked very hard and spent a little time going through the painstaking process with some of the above mentioned companies. I've been checking my account every day and it still has $36 in it. I received this last week. This company can't be for real. To much money pending- hard for me to believe this. I should at least have half of this. No more Panda Reasearch for me. A waste of time.
