ENERGY PLUS

03-03-2009 08:48 AM

I switched from my electric company to Energy Plus and you get $25 initially for joining and approx $2 each month just for using your electricity. To me this is a score. Wish they had other utilities/telephone companies offering the same deal. Might as well get something for your monthly bills !!!!!

 

Also they need to add more E-Coupons each month !

 

The surveys are not worth my time.  Doing a focus group should pay you $50 for your time and effort, they are making out like bandits !

 

WE SHOULD ALL STOP the surveys until they change the payout!

I think this would make more sense as three distinct threads; the first regarding Energy Plus, the second regarding e-Coupons, and the third for e-Rewards.  

 

The following rant refers to e-rewards surveys.  I am confused by your comment regarding surveys not being worth your time and the payout for focus groups.  I assume you are aware of the many distinctions in qualitative research, and that you would not be suggesting that surveys are focus groups or vice versa.  I do not believe that a upromise representative was sent to your home with a loaded weapon and instructed to compel you to complete a survey.  If I am mistaken I am truly sorry, it must have been a horrific experience.  The incentive for survey completion is typically determined by the sponsoring agency, I doubt that upromise has any input into the matter.
