Viva Research Aka Vivaresearch.com The company says they pay for surveys taken, with participation. I participated in many surveys but no payment by the time the company claims, no email response. Internet Internet
I signed up for this "vivareasearch.com" company september 6, 2006. This company claims that if you take their surveys and participate in the sponsoring companies surveys you will get paid an amount specified per survey.
I have since taken about 10 or more of these surveys, only two of which have paid out as of yet. And since vivareasearch wont pay you unless you make at least $50 in credits, I can't even get the measley $28 dollars I have built up yet.
I have invested a lot of money participating in the trials for the these companies, and had to deal with a lot of telemarketers calling me and people trying to get me to not cancel free trials, and it has been very frustrating, all the while I was thinking it would be worth the few measly bucks for my time and it hasn't been.
The company says to please allow 2 months for payment, most of the ones I have done have been over two months. The company then says to submit emails from the sponsoring companies to prove that you participated and they will "try" to get your money. When i emai vivaresearch they send me back these excuse for emails where everything is abbreviated like "hw ar yo doin we wll try to fx prblm" kinda like those nigerian scam artist email you get from time to time. I sent numerous emails to viva research, they kept giving me these crap emails back, but no help other than that.
I am at my wits end with them and don't know what to do so I thought I'd try this. I have proof that I participated in such trials and am wiling to make that proof readily available as this is actually a scam involving almost $300 dollars that these people owe me.
