So are these surveys worth doing?
That’s a decision you have to make for yourself. Some, like me, think so. Others don’t. It’s up to you.

I'm retired, and have plenty of time on my hands. To sit at my computer and spend 20-30 minutes in exchange for 30 points or so is certainly worth it. I try to get 30 points per day. That's 900 a month. Adds up quickly. I've garnered north of 21K points in a year and a half.

Well I've decided to try doing some of these surveys. I signed up, but I'm still waiting on the activation email to come through.

It takes a lot of patience and persistence.

Yeah honestly, I eventually got the email and created my account. I then tried to take a survey for maybe 15 minutes, but each time it said I wasn't for me. I've concluded it was probably my use of a VPN, and because I'm not giving them my actual information, haha no way! So, I closed my account and that was that. Maybe I'll miss out on a few points, but I'd rather keep my personal information private.

If you're worried about giving surveys your private information, but you don't feel right about just making things up, just adapt your personal information in small but insignificant ways. I change my age slightly, use a zipcode from down the road, etc. That way my demographic information is accurate--and I'm not misleading the surveyor--but it couldn't lead someone to my actual identity.
Incidentally, I haven't signed up for this particular survey platform, but I do use e rewards. I bank points there to keep my points and miles from expiring from hotel chains, airlines, etc.
