My son did this same study about 2 months ago...it's been a month since we sent it all back..patiently waiting for the other $50 gift card to show up. Well I'm patiently waiting, he's 15 so he wants his money now!!!

My son did this early in the year and we received an e-mail letting us know he would not be receiving the additional compensation. Apparently they need you to enter a certain amount of drinks but they cannot tell you what the # is because then ppl will enter anything. As a mom I was very disappointed for my son. So Synria, I would highly recommend you make a lot of entries and that each entry has you drinking a lot. Hope you get it!

Katieandthekids, How quickly did they send the email after you sent back the palm pilot that he wouldn't be receiving the money? My son would be so disappointed as well. I told him he could use the money to buy a a wireless router for his playstation 3 so he could play online. I guess if they do decide to stiff him on the compensation I will buy the router for him anyway. He entered his drinks every day like he was suppose to so he should be compensated and not penalized for their crazy standards. Just wondering if we would have received the email by now.

If my memories serve me right it was around 2-3 weeks later. So maybe not hearing yet is a good thing for you. I hope he gets it.

Well, I get another shot to redeem our family  I now qualified for the same type of survey but with snacks. I will be eating a lot to make sure I get all the money. I told my son I would split it with him since he worked so hard and got nothing. Now, if after entering a lot I still get nothing then we know this is a scam! |

I also did this survey on beverages. I got the $10 gc first and did the recordings for 2 weeks & sent it back. I got the $60 gc in about 3-4 weeks after turning it back in. I don't think they are a scam. I don't remember who it was through though.

It's beem at least 2 months since my son did this same project. We received the $10 card up front but never received the $50 nor did we get an email or letter saying we wouldn't be getting it. It's like it just disappeared into thin air. It was very disappointing. My son wanted to get a wireless router for his playstation with the money. We finally got tired of waiting and just bought him the router. I think we did it through lightspeed which I normally have very good luck with.

Thought I would let you know I received my additional $55 Visa gift card in the mail. So even thought my son had a bad experience with this last year I had no problem. Maybe it was the age >)

And with the $10 they gave me I'm going to buy even more drinks!! lol
