Rejected by Pinecone Panel?!
« on: October 26, 2015, 10:11:54 am »
I tried to sign up for Pinecone Panel, but they said they had no openings for my demographics. What???? I am a member of TONS of survey sites, and none of them ever rejected me from signing up! What's so special about them that they have to be so exclusive? I'm thinking they must overpay on their surveys, so they don't want to pay out too much money or something. Has anyone else ever been rejected by them?

yes they are very hard to get into, keep trying, its definitely worth it!

Actually I was a member about 5 years ago, but left as I had too many other sites I worked on, and regretted it ever since, I have just recently made it back into the site, after maybe 20-30 rejections

The normal procedure to sign up with Pine Cone is through an invite link, or one of their elusive links you could probably find on the web if you searched for it.  I've been a member of Pine Cone for a few years now.  Each of their surveys pay $3 each, so you're wrong about them "overpaying on surveys."  I usually get about 3 to 4 surveys a month.  Although I've never heard of being rejected because of your demographics, perhaps over the years since I joined they changed that.  Get with them if you can, they're an honest company and any survey they send you you WILL qualify for.

I don't understand why they rejected you. I was able to sign up with them the first time I tried and that was through the offers section on here.

Don't give up on Pinecone.They can be hard to get into,but once you're in,it's worth it.Their surveys pay $3 each and average about 15 minutes in length.Also,you will have the chance to be selected for in-home product tests,

You must have hit it just the right time when they were willing to get a few more members. I would try again, but I don't know how many times I can try through Fusion Cash and still expect to get credit if I ever get accepted.

Had a little problem doing the very first survey!  There was no place for an answer. So I thought i would sign out and sign back in. I wouldn't let me sign in.

Here I am with the problem solved,(i hope), or and never went back to try.  Forgot all about it.  Guess i need to make myself a list.

Its not an easy panel to get on . They take there surveys and the products they do have there members test seriously. They do pay 3 dollars a survey. Yeah you can be denied membership to them by demographics that is true but then again you can be denied the same on a survey on here for the same thing. It's not a knock on anyone its just they have enough people in that demographic that there looking for so you will be denied if that's the case. Because when they say there accepting new members doesn't mean its for all age groups at that time  it could be just for one because the others are full already
