D.User Review Summary for topdollarsurveys.com
One complaint, dated 28 November, 2006. Client apparently paid to sign up, then could not sign in to her account. One
communication, no follow-up, over a year ago. Seems to have been an accounting glitch that got resolved.
Summary: One negative review, over a year ago. Primarily a communication problem.
Altogether, a pretty good report. All clean for the last year, nothing serious before that.
Additional Information: At the answers.yahoo.com site I found:

There were five Net references to the Top Dollar Surveys website.
Survey Sentinel commentary: The commentaries
reported above are very positive. One complaint over account admistrative matters, over a year ago. Anyone can make a
complaint, for any reason. And there is only that one.
Altogether this is a very good report. There seems to be nothing significant against Top Dollar Surveys posted online.
And their current clients are giving them good marks recently, a very positive sign.
We conclude that NO, Top Dollar Surveys is not a scam, they are O.K. They appear to be a reasonable good
paid survey site, and in the last three months they have been outstanding.
