Streetbees

As opposed to the usual “run of the mill” surveys that most of us are used to participating in, Streetbees has an entirely different model. This app doesn’t solely rely on multiple choice or true/false questions; instead they use mostly open-ended, short answer questions. And by using this unique and brilliant model, they allow the user to tell their own unique story—in fact, that’s exactly what they call their ‘surveys’...each opportunity to provide information is called a “story”. As one can imagine, this obviously provides them with ultra-specific information and really gets much more personal with each user. There’s really only one thing that I’d really like to see improvement with: we desperately need more available opportunities or “stories”. I’ve been using this app for about 6-7 months now, and I keep my location settings set to “always” and my notifications turned on—which by the way is VERY unlike me—and I’ve still only been had approximately 3 or 4 opportunities to participate in these super personalized and fun stories. 😢 I don’t know what’s up with the developers or what, but 99% of the time that I proactively open up the app, I’m always seeing the same disappointing message: “it’s a little quiet around here. Check back later at a different time.” COME ON GUYS!! I love this app, but where are all of the opinion opportunities hiding?!

I have been using Streetbees for about a month now and I have took several surveys for cash and they always pay out. I was afraid I was going to get scammed because I have been scammed so many times with different apps that can “supposeably” pay you to do tasks but they never do. Streetbees is legit and that’s a 100% honest review. It takes about 4-5 days to get paid but it always comes to my PayPal when I finish a survey! I am very happy with this app and will continue to use it until it no longer exists. 👌

response required

If you enjoy spending a half hour answering repetitive questions for one dollar or for free then this is the app for you. Thankfully I have better things to do with my time. The last couple of surveys have bounced back to me with little instruction as to why they want me to update something. I answered every question completely and accurately. The last one they happened to not like my photo of my hair care products. Well my heart weeps that my hair care products aren’t exactly what you want me to be using but that’s what I have in my bathroom. If I had 1 million other products maybe I would take that photograph but you asked for a photograph of what I use. Well there it is! I can’t manifest items I don’t have. Another survey didn’t like my answers for some reason. There was no instruction on that one. I guess you have to know exactly what they want you to say? I answered the question as myself... as a human being. I have nothing else to say about drinks. I’m not a professional writer and I’m not going to write your ad campaign for you. I answered the blasted questions. I will not do it again just because someone doesn’t like what I have to say. I thought the point was honesty? I am quite happy to report that I have deleted this worthless piece of crap app for good.

The stories are not available as often as I would like it, also, sometimes they ask for photos of receipts of certain products you consume. I usually toss most of my receipts into the trash after I buy my groceries. -_- You should also allow us to upload photos instead of asking us to take them at the very moment we answer a story. For example: I can’t take a picture of what I ate today cause I’m no longer at the restaurant? But I did took picture and I can’t upload it to the story, so I took a picture of whatever snack I had on my house at the moment, and that will probably take away from me the chance of earning some cash from the stories... Aside from that, I do like the app. :)

They do NOT pay you! Avoid at all costs. It seems so simple but this is a SCAM! This app wants you to take photos and videos of your activities for anywhere from $2-5 which sounds good but they don’t pay. I did my one and only survey for $3, took 10 minutes, was approved for payment in 48 hours. It has been nearly TWO weeks, I still have not been paid. I wrote in after 48 hours, was told to wait 3 business days, wrote in again after those 3 days had passed. Then it took them 10 days to respond to me to tell me to wait ANOTHER 3 days. They have no intentions of paying you. Just give you the run around. There are far better survey sites that actually pay you and pay you instantly and these don’t ask for invasive photos and videos.
