i get it
I only joined this year. It certainly could do with some improvement. Why for instance does the one person only seem to write these forums?
It has taken me so many surveys just to get a $50 eftpos card, i get paid $28 an hour for my job and i have spent many hours trying to reach 44000 points, you need to lower the rewards or give more points for surveys, it just takes way to long
Thanks for your feedback and comments so far. I guess the main message I'm getting is: More surveys and bigger rewards - more to do. Over the coming months we will work very hard to ensure the Livetribe experience is both rewarding and enjoyable and with plenty more opportunities to particpate. Additional volume to surveys will be coming in the very near future. Starting tomorrow we will also have a new competion every month. And coming very soon we will introduce loyalty reward bonuses - where you get rewarded for the number of surverys you complete. This and hopefully much more. Keep the feedback coming - I value your comments and am paying attention to them.Cheers,Charlie
YEP I THINK YOUR SITE IS FUN AND I LOVE THE EXCITMENT, I AM THINKING OF REFERRING IT TO SOME FRIENDS NOW THAT I HAVE TRIED IT, LOSER
yes i like the new site, but.............................................pages take too long to load,the rewards are bad! there is nothing i can use, im not getting enough surveys!i want wish cards to be introduced or cash or payments thur paypal, something that i can use, i dont download music or books, so all of ur rewards are of no use to me at all!
and also, it takes far too long to get points, i think u guys need to drop a "0" u need to give us more points to do the surveys or drop the amount of points needed for a reward
I have no problem with the frequency of surveys, more the rewards. Not many choices really
You are absolutely right, just, for example, they write - process 2 or 3 surveys in one day and get 500 bonus points. I receive maybe 2-3 surveys per week, never had 3 new surveys per day... But often there are some surveys hanging "forever", impossible to process.
I love this site chief,interesting topics for discussion and of course its always great to enter competitions I just wish I had more time in the day to visit
Good site and good surveys. How come though we never know who has won the monthly $50,000 prize?
Hi Tobyabe,It comes under the winners page though haveing saying that a winner for the $50,000 prize hasnt been advertised on that page for over 2 months!!!!!
Am just wondering, when I bring up the page to log in, sometimes it says USA and I have to change it to Australia. Why doesn't it stay on Australia all the time?I've just remembered another thing to ask to. Today I got an invite for a survey in my emails and when I clicked on it to do it, it told me that I had already done it. I am sure I haven't got dementia YET?? Or have I?
NO JAZZY YOU DONT HAVE DOMENTURE,THEY HAVE BEEN MAKING ALOT OF MISTAKES LATELY, THYE STILL HAVENT DONE THE $50,000 DRAW FOR THE LAST 2 MONTHS SO I DONT KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING.
I've been a member of this site for almost a year now and I qualify for an average 4-6 surveys per month. In that time I've earned enough points for a $30 Amazon voucher which I ordered last week. I recived an email saying I'll receive via email within 30 days. For those who havn't received vouchers yet I'll let you know when I receive mine.
Ashman that was so funny what u said,I laughed out loud...love laughing...but it's so true I've been promised and told it's in my inbox,so as yet I have never received anythingwhen I see a peanut..or a free cup of coffee..so truly I will only believe it when
I see it.
I have been a member for quite a while, gave up on collecting points and trying my luck on the pick the numbers, realised early on that it was unlikely that I would win anything. I generally give my rewards to save the forest (25 square metres) or the brain foundation. Is there anywhere to find out how much forest has been saved?? I agree with other comments the rewards system needs an overhall and some of the suggestion I've seen are good ones.I used to also go in for the lottery tickets, but have never won anything there either, has anyone won anything on the lottery tickets?? Would be good to announce lottery winners so you would know that people do win.I like the site, and I will still hang around, it just needs to improve.
I like how the page looks now since Live Tribe took over from Qualified Opinions. I had been with Qualified Opinions for a long time. I am finding though that I don't collect my points as reward points now, because quite simply I don't use any of the retailers so they are of no use to me now. I personally would like to see wish cards for either $10/$20/$50 that you could collect for. I sometimes click on the $50,00 prize or try my hand at the numbers to pick and win (hopeless, has never won). What's the secret there? I would like to see more competitons. The Limmerick competition was good but out of the winners I thought there was really only one that stood out that was great and truely deserved to win. There were quite a lot of funny ones that didn't win. In answering to 3CO-1ME.......years ago when it was Qualified Opinions we did win a division but in those days, if you won in that division your payout would have been $1, so we got another free lotto numbers again. Unfortunately, we didn't win then lol. I do get some surveys and the ones I do get, I do enjoy doing.
hmmm I just signed up yesterday and from what i'm reading here its not going to be such a lively thing....oh well i'll stay for a little while and see what happenes. if its as slow as i'm reading then i'm gone :(
How bout a drum strum sound when logged in on site...let you know that your on LiveTribe site!!!
I do like the site layout but I have suggestion regarding it: can a low-bandwidth version be created? There seems to be a lot of unnecessary built-ins in the design, as performing a simple task like switching pages take a lot more time in comparison to other, flashier sites. Can something be done to improve site usability?
The grocery survey is flawed. I bought 5 items last nioght and NONE were on the list. You needed to have an "Other" or "None of these" option to tick.
Didn'tr realise people are not getting the vouchers! If they are electronic vouchers they should come super quick. Thats very disapoointing
lack of surveys need to do something about that
When do we find out who won the August $50,000 Draw?
hi anarayne,i have posted a couple of comments in reguards to the $50,000 draw but I got no comment. i think its a waist of time do you think?
Do they actually draw it?? I've been hanging out waiting but still nothing
i think the last one they put on the web site was a couple off months ago, they are suppose to draw one every month!!!!! yeah right!
I have been a member for about a year and have a few surveys which is good. My concerns are:1. Some surveys are 45 mins for 1300 maximum pts - whis is only $1!! Not good value most other sites offer at least $1 for every 10 mins of work, and most offer much more.2. Rewards - I too dont like the rewards offered, I woukld prefer coles, paypal, mtyer etc3. Sorry about spelling mistakes you cant edit thisZ?I get no emails from you, i only get a survey if i log in and check everyday? and yes you dont go to spam.The surveys are good and intyeresting, just not paid enough. It seems many people are memebers but no one can ever get a reward.
i like it...lol
when would irecive an ivite ?? and im likeing it so far.....:-)
You have the best looking Survey site I've seen so far! Would like to be invited to at least try to quilify for a Survey! That's my only complaint, no invites.
Love the site, and am getting surveys - would like to see more competitions. Keep up the good work.
hi, where are the winners laterly for the $50.000 draw?
I love the surveys, when I can excess them , dont kknow what I'm doing wrong but sometimes it hard to gmove around the sight, help
I think the rewards system probably needs a review. Considering the surveys tend to be quite long from what i've done anyway comparatively to another survey website i know of there surveys are much shorter and rewards in $ vouchers better. This sites design and most of the set up is better and more interactive though there is more that can be done to make the surveys and rewards more worth while. I beleive the longer the surveys are the less accurate answers become towards the end of the surveys as it drags on and you just want to hurry it up to the end. Something to think about anyway.
havent received any surveys or any type of communication from live tribe in several months thought the site was dead
I can only say this is a fantastic website and I love it. However, I have posted a number of short surveys but it had never appear on LiveTribe, never got feedback at to why.
Just want to correct something here, I said "Surveys" but meant "Pols"
How about adding different kinds of rewards like, gift vouchers for actual shops, like Myers, Wishcard, JB Hi Fi, etc. instead (or as well as) the internet based vouchers you already have?
its takes to long to gain points,rewards suck!! you only get a certin amount on the survey even when the email says it pays this amount... Whats complaining gonna do i complained months ago and nothing has changed :( i say vouchers for big name shops movies pay pal or even chqs issued as some of us like me dont use pay pal or even direct debit I just sat and did a survey for 25 mins and got 900 points
not what was said on the email..I love giving my opinions but my opinion on this is RIP OFF and im the sucker that still does the surveys when they come that is
Yes, I agree, minium points are too high and take too long to earn. I have joined other sites at the same time as this one and have already earned enough points and spent them on bigger rewards than LiveTribe offers. But, I love the polls and great site.
Great site. I have only been a member for a few months and are receiving surveys even though I have pop-up restrictions. My computer is set so as I can choose to allow them through. I have been steadily earning but could always do with more surveys though. Maybe some competition page or small rewards for the quick polls every day could help (like rewards central or the poll on irewards site). I find it hard to navigate to paid forums on your site and it you have any set for specific times you may wish to have a section under rewards catagory that they could be posted prior to start so people can get involved. These are suggestions only as I have read some of the comments. Maybe better ability to see the means of earning rewards on the home page may help. These are only suggestions as I have read some of the comments. Love your site and I have no problems with it. Kepp up the good work. Thanks for the feedback oportunity.
Dear "assistant to the chief" if you care so much, why haven't you bothered replying? Do you reckon that's acceptable. Nothing since July 2010 - You should work for Telstra. Your customer Service skills and response to members comments is absolutely sensational. Congratulations Assistant to the chief - have another month off.
I started giving up on Live Tribe as I got very few surveys and the website is very slow for me, even though I have a speedy internet link. I recently came back after I received a survey and was hoping the site would be having more surveys and a better rewards system
hey,i love the site.it is the best site i ever had.i get very easy and short surveys.
I find it always good to get th chance to view my opinion in the polls and to be able to view the trends in order to get an insight into what the hot topics are of the day and how most people view them.
I would comment but no one can see it so why bother? Yes more surveys would be great Love the new look keep up the good work
I found it all the way at the bottom Yeh Me :)
It takes too long to get back to members page after doing the mini polls. The rest is great I don't understand how to enter the competitions. If I had more time I would probably check other stuff
Up to now have not received any information from you. I am keen to have the opportunity to participate in all of your surveys etc., as indicated in the information supplied today the 16th of August 2010.Kindest regards, Clarry Ferris
Hi Guys!I really love the design and layout of the site now, but as others have stated the point/reward system is rather dated and boring. I would love to see a cash/Paypal payout on points after reaching a certain value amount. Also instead of say earn 1300 points for this survey - earn $1 for this survey, it always seems more motivational when you can see real dollars adding up! Other than the points/rewards system - its perfect!
I think the inclusion of rewards being redeemable into PayPal would good, instead of just having vouchers to different stores.
As a new member I find the site welcoming and very user friendly
I like the website is very user friendly. I usually get a few survey requests - sometimes you have to go online for them. Would like to earn more points but I am sure I will get there eventually. I do get quite a few emails with invites each week. It is great giving your opinions and feedback to companies hopefully this will keep them on their toes!!
after reading all the other comments we are all in agreement that you are not offering enough surveys. how can we render that please.
hi guys love the site and the polls and surveys. not enough emails but thats ok, the reward system is good i like the way you can choose how you spend them.
Read responses and many for any...Grrr
I can't find any responss to the invitation to comment on the competitions so they are obviously not too engaging! With only less than 3 weeks of Winter left what is happening with the current Winter Competition? No feedback from Live Tribe at all about any winners of the $100 prizes since the announcement on July 14...???And it is really frustrating that I can't edit the error in this post without deleting all...
WHAT A GREAT COMMENT, I HAVE TO AGREE WITH YOU ON THIS ONE, WELL SAID
I have not had a survey since june and still don't have enough points to claim any thing,this site needs to improve if they want people to stay as there is a lot of better rewarding survey sites that do pay rewards in useful ways eg gift carsd bunnings kmart or send you a cheque in australian dollars.
Hi there!,do you know what would be Great?, I think that once a month, Live Tribe should do a Tripple Point's, just for those who havent recieved many surveys, to basically top up there point's, to benefit,as I think it would make many more People want to join Live tribe with us all,as there is nothing like this with any of the other survey companies out there...none at all, & this would give you a Head start, ,it's also a Big Thank you to All of the Live Triber's who are Helping you with your Question's too.Cheer's, But I Love it to Bit's!
Hi,I'll echo the comments above: not enough surveys, to little reward and a clunky website. I don't visit the site very often because it's slow to load, clumsy to load and I should be getting the survey invites by mail. I've not had any emails for some time so I visited this morning and found three surveys. I completed 2 of the three for a total of 1550 points. That works out at $1.36 by my reckonning for 40 odd minutes and it gets worse because I've only got junk to spend it on. I really wonder why I bothered.The site: navigation is clumsy. I can't use the back button because it resets the whole site back to the start page instead of taking me to where I came from like every other website. The box I'm typing in now has no cursor so I cannot tell where I am without typing something and I can't go back and edit if I need to (I have to delete everything back to my mistake and retype it). Fix those two faults and I think I'd forgive the long load times.On the whole, the site looks like a newbie flash programmer was turned loose without any real supervision.
Another thought: why do surveys never pay what they say they will. A case in point, the two surveys I just did were listed for a total of 2500 points ($2.27) but only paid out 1550 points ($1.36).I seem to have a cursor and the ability to move back through posts all of a sudden. WTF?
Just did another survey that paid a fraction of the promised reward.
The inabillity to edit my post even while typing it strikes again! Paragraph one, line two: "clumsy to load" should read "clumsy to navigate"
As a previous prizewinner, I'd say the competitions are unique, well-judged & universally appealling. I've been a member here for many years, even before Live Tribe started, back in the days of qualified opinions. That make-over was fantastic from the point of view of eye-candy at least. It does take a long time to load the home page. I'd like to see more competitions, more often, even if the prizes are smaller. The Limerick competitions, & poetry in general, I feel, were well-received & encourage us to share our feelings, experiences & improve our English Literary skills. Perhaps you could also make competitions with ballads, soliliquy's(?), haiku's & other forms of expressive verse. Well done on a unique & pleasing design for this website.
a while back there was a limerick competition with a different subject every week. i was dissappointed to see that most of the winners didnt even right a limerick, but just a poem. i put hard work into my limericks when i could have just written a poem....a limerick is a limerick, a poem a poem, a haiku is a kaiku etc etc....
Hi vegandelight,Thats great that you are a prize winner of live tribe, well done.what have you won?well done.
why does it take so long to load this site? I have never come across another site that takes as long as this one. It is also slow to change pages.
I've been with LiveTribe since its inception & find that the rewards need an overhaul. Some survey sites offer cash rewards either in a chq or thru PayPal or offer shopping vouchers/gift cards & I think that is the way to go. Also points for logging in each day is something to be looked at as loyalty is rewarded & it helps to build up points if you are getting screened out on the surveys. The site is slow to load but overall its kind of engaging & its got me.
Love the site, just not enough surveys! Keep up the great work :)
Ditto for me on all the comments made, it seems there is a pretty strong theme of not enough surveys
I agree with most of the comments. I get impatient that the site takes ages to load compared to most of the sites I visit. Same with clicking the back button when doing the polls-too slow. I've not won anything yet but I'm hoping!
I particularly like the Forums. But I have a complaint with how long it takes to transfer you after you have selected and been allocated your reward, far too long.
Love the site, really friendly, much more so than other sites. Please whatever you do do not issue competitions in place of points . That is such a poor reward, no body ever seems to win those. As everyone has said it seems to take forever to amass points. The other day I was invited to a survey I answered one question and told immediately I was screened out. It was the easiest 160 points but the question did not seem connected to anything, rather a chance at a survey.Love the rewards for suggestions that is generous. Big Thank You there.Terrific site it would appear with most people except for the points. That is a tremendous reaction, not many sites could boast thatCheers
Love the tattslotto reward especially if a win is automatically notified.
Same for me Love it but dont get anything much at all.,
Like the site but as a lot of people have commented the reward system needs review. On the plus side I like the fact that you get some points even if you are screened out. But I agree that it takes too long to accumulate points. I also think that the vouchers are much too limited. Would much rather be paid in cash or have a wider range of vouchers such as Wish Card or Coles Myer cards which are much more flexible and useful. The site is also too slow to load.
Well put cuddles1 - I agree with all you said. The online reward vouchers do not appeal to me at all - cash or wish/gift cards are the way to go.
At least I am not the only one who is not getting any surveys.The problem I find is that the loggin page takes forever to load.
its not that bad, I sometimes think that but then I find a bit of patience is a virtue!!
I like the site. I've been lucky to get a few surveys after a fairly short time of membership. For me it's a bit of a game to accumulate some points for a tangible reward. I have found other sites offer cash and gift cards (i have attained rewards on 3 other sites). I don't mindthe long time it takes to eventually earn a reward but it would be great if the rewards offered by Live Tribe could be something I could just go shopping with. The competitions are for cash so why not a Cash alternative for reward points? I am enjoying the game and will be back soon , an increased insentive would only make this site better.
not enough surveys or ways to make money but still good fun and i like it
Another thought. I'd prefer to claim rewards as cash via Paypal. If you don't use the retailers that the vouchers are linked to then the rewards become worthless.
Totally agree with Paypal as a reward option!
I agree with you Littletootrm - the online rewards choice has alot to be desired - I too would prefer cash rewards through PayPal.
Love the site. I've had a few surveys, but am often screened out. I think the rewards system needs review. I have done more surveys on this site than on another Panel I'm a member of yet I have already been able to claim rewards on the other site. I think the points rewarded are too low and the rewards cost too many points. Having said that I still find the membership enjoyable.
Appreciate this site very much. The surveys are not to long and also very interesting. It is easy to move around on the screen of my machine and the information is also very helpful. Keep up the great work as I know it is not easy all of the time. Best of luck with every-thing.
the site is a happy friendly place and easy to use but as with a lot of other "survey peeps" it seems that we (may) get ripped off with the prizes. To get the right numbers for $50 is almost impossible and we do have to take the time to do these surveys!! I`m happy to do them but I feel I don`t get enough chances either:) so, come on Assistant to the Chief!! send out more surveys!! :=)
totally agree! I've only had 5 survey invites this year.I tried my luck with the numbers game,struck out,won't be doing that again! comeon livetribe ,,more surveys please otherwise it's not worth being a member here.
I haven't been a member of Live Tribe for very long but I find it quite enjoyable, the website itself has a friendly feel about it and i can find my way quite easily. I haven't really competed in many of the competitions but I have read about them and will most probably become fully active in them. I particularly look forward to the surveys as I enjoy giving my opinion and the questions asked are easy to answer. I know that I will continue to be a member of Live Tribe and will always look forward to the completing the surveys.
I think it has been very enjoyable doing the surveys, a chance to give an opinion without to much fuss. I would like to know if there is an easier way to get back to the nenbers page after doing the short polls
Hi, I like the site, I think more serveys, bigger bonus points, and i noticed that there has been no $50,000 winner for a while, and it seems to take for ever to build up points. I do enjoy the website
I agree. I love the site too, but would love more surveys. Keep up the good work though.
cool site very entertaining and informative, would like to do more surveys though........................
like the new site,but my big problem is i don't get any surveys !
