I don't remember making an account. Then out of no where I get an email saying they have a short survey for $5. The survey was fast and easy AND I was paid via paypal instantly.

Scam. Fill the review and the email confirmation shortly after confirmed there is no reward...
Be careful as they do not pay.
I made a few surveys for them and then got paid as promised, however I did not receive anything from the las 2 surveys. It leads me to believe it is a scam

Unreliable and Disappointing
As a strategy consultant at a MBB type firm, I was deeply disappointed with my experience using Potloc. Significant delays in survey sampling caused major disruptions to my project timeline, leaving me scrambling to meet client deadlines. To make matters worse, the platform felt unreliable, adding unnecessary frustration. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Potloc.
These people might be the devil
It’s a wonder to me how these people are even able to steal put surveys out treacherous I mean they are horror movie treacherous they have no conscience. They’re terrible terrible people you will not get paid. You have to chase him through emails for weeks for $10. They’re terrible and they are the screen out disqualifications for no reason cause my question is how do you screen somebody out that you have a screen yet? does that make sense not to me, but that’s still you know a lot of these people need to be called on their behaviors and the things that they do a lot of people need to you know I wish more people would get on here and put these reviews out so people like myself can see them and don’t have to walk down that road that’s dark and shady. You don’t have a conscious you know even if I don’t know you I don’t wanna be rude to you or disrespectful in anyway they care less watch these people they not real common like you only run across them on these different brands so often but they are Viollet you know when it comes to disrespect they don’t answer emails and they try to do you for the smallest amount of money stay away from my folks
Don’t bother
Don’t bother. Initially did get paid a couple of times after chasing with multiple emails. This time I have sent several emails for a survey I did on the 22nd of October and I still have not been paid. It’s not worth the hassle. Total scammers. Looks like they keep the reward money for themselves rather than pass it on to those who complete the surveys.
Scam
Scam. Finished the survey waited the month for the reward and nothing and no reply to emails. Waste of time and highly illegal.
Unreliable and late
Like others took part in a 8 minute survey, after around that length I was screened out. Clearly the survey was longer and they were being dishonest.
Completely a scam
I had a very frustrating experience with Potloc. They advertise rewards for filling out their questionnaires, but after completing a survey, I received nothing. To make matters worse, they never replied to my emails, nor did they send any communication explaining why the reward wasn’t given. It feels like a complete scam. If they’re not going to follow through on their promises, they shouldn’t be advertising rewards at all. Save your time and avoid this company.
Cancelled my reward
I participated in a survey and got a subsequent email to tell me when my reward would be paid. Received an email to redeem my reward only for it to be cancelled when I redeemed it. Contacted Potloc but no reply?
Late screen out
I spent over 5 minutes on a survey that was only supposed to take 5 minutes in total. I was screened out after answering lots of questions about karaoke, on a survey that was about karaoke.
Take take take, but never give.
Answer the questions. They got their info that they needed – but didn’t payout. same as everybody else.
Seems like a scam
Seems like a scam. They take your info, promise you money and they don't pay you. They say it's a 10 minute survey but it takes a lot longer than that.
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME
Still waiting
Did survey on 21st April, still waiting for the £2 visa reward. They say they will check the quality of the survey before paying!
