Waste of time

So far, no reward for doing survey, but more annoyingly I have had more spam calls and calander 'warnings' since I did it and they could only have come from this service or them selling or giving on my details. I would avoid using ten foot barge pole. Also, diary questions/requirements were not that cogent and badly written

Another warning

Like others, took part in a study that involved completing an online diary. The promised incentive was never received, despite an email to the address listed in the study briefing.

Wasted time

Wasted time doing first survey, qualified for follow up diary, Did diary daily for a week. After diary completed, and 1 more survey completed for step 3, was told there was a better survey match for me and dumped me to another survey without pay or credit. Thanks InboxDollars.

mysmsdiary survey

I was invited to do a mysmsdiary survey via e-rewards. The survey was to take a week for me to record my contact with beer/cider advertising. I completed the survey & then just got an error on the mysmsdiary website. They still text me asking me to complete stage 3 to qualify for 'my reward'. This is def a scam and these liars are probably hoping you will call the supplied mobile number ( 07984441766) and get charged a premium rate call. If you get an invite, BIN IT !!!

My Thanks to ALL Reviewers

I am so thankful to everyone who submitted reviews concerning MYSMSDIARY. Every since completing a 15 minute survey through InboxDollars, which paid me .50 cents and asked if I would be willing to followup with a diary of motel lodging, I have gotten reminders to complete the diary. After reading everyone's informative reviews, I feel that I have dodged a huge time saving bullet. I'm sorry you all had to find out the hard way. Thank you everyone!

Mysmsdiary is a Scam

I just finished 1 week survey. After final submitting it I have been redirected multiple times to another surveys from different providers. Final result - error page.
Many hours wasted and didn’t get any reward at all.

MYSMSDIARY is a scan

Just completed a week's diary which was sent via e-Rewards. Submitted the diary entries and then was told to complete another 7 final questions. One of these questions had 20 screens so quite a bit of additional work. Final question asked me to listen to a 5 second audio clip which I could not hear. Because of this I was screened out, suddenly told I was not eligible after I spent a week completing a diary. Contacted e-Rewards and received no joy there. So MYSMSDIARY got their diary entries and did not have to pay. Yet another scam survey sent out by e-Rewards. Happening too often these days. Avoid any surveys where you have to complete a diary for MYSMSDIARY.

Vegan Food Online Diary

I took part in a one week online diary about vegan food products. I came across the diary via a link at the end of a survey I took on Branded Surveys. I was promised £4 on completion of the diary, and a follow up survey. I completed everything, and I have received no payment. From the other reviews here it would seem that many people have not been payed for completing online diaries, and that the whole thing is a scam. I would avoid these people.

Not acknowledging completed answer

I have never had an issue with them paying me- I complete them through Valued Opinions. However I am having an issue with completing their current Investment Platform diary. Despite completing each entry in full (on my mobile phone) it still is asking me to'please tell us more'. Seems to be an issue with the final questions - it is missing on the phone mysmsdiary - however no issue completing on my laptop final question included (Q what have you done after seeing this) Very odd

Zero stars if I could

Zero stars if I could. I agree with all of you. Did a washing machine online study and was never paid.. would have been paid in 7-10 days, no contact information available. Avoid these scammers
