I have been a member of Consumer Pulse for many many years however, I have now reached the grand age of 80 and yes, I have been dumped. I was not aware of this policy until just reading it here on trust pilot. Extremely upset to have no warning whatsoever to enable me to spend my points as I wanted. Just told I have eight weeks from receipt of email to spend them and, on ringing them up to speak to them, told I can only use them on B&Q and Argos. So, be warned members, spend your points before you get to 80 or you’ll be told where you can shop with them within eight weeks! Not impressed.

I have used consumer pulse for many years and love how easy it is. However I would like to see more rewards like amazon, PayPal or a supermarket.

I have been a member of Consumer Pulse for many years and have accumulated a six figure sum in points to date.
Trouble is the rewards categories are so limited that I have nowhere to claim and spend my points. I have written to CP about this before and received a rather dismissive response.
I belong to many other survey sites (good and bad) and am able to claim cash/vouchers for all sorts of things; BACS to my bank; to Paypal; various retail outlets; Visa or Tremendous cards - the list goes on.
It is time that CP moved with the times and offered MORE choices.
I have recently learned that when I reach the age of 80 (a while to go yet) I shall be dumped. This is very ageist and our purchasing power and faculties do not disappear at that age. What will happen to all out points at that juncture? I need explanations on these matters please.

It’s useful and takes very little time for a nice little suprise every few months :)

I've bean a member for a month and they have decided to take my membership for no reason do not recommend this website after I've done all there surveys do not recommend unless they give my membership back by the way I whant my voucher what I earned if you see this colsumer pulse how apooling

After being a member for 16 years, I am now arbitrarily dismissed because of my age.
It may be in your T&C's or FAQ's but what century are you in? In this day and age people are no longer irrelevant because of their age.
Catch up, Consumer Pulse. You are way behind the times.

I've been adding purchases to Consumer Pulse for some years.
My husband and I are avid readers and book collectors. For some reason the "Entertainment" category, under which books apparently fit, has been removed.
Given that that category is pretty much the main one we respond to we were disappointed and asked Consumer Pulse why this had happened. To say that their response was patronising is a serious understatement.
When I tried to email a response to their email my email bounced. Hmmm... perhaps Consumer Pules isn't able to deal with people who ask pertinent questions.

Have been with Consumer Pulse for many years and on going to leave a positive review on Trustpilot, saw for the first time the sad reviews from people who have reached 80 years and been dumped by Consumer Pulse. Maybe they can explain the reasons and what they believe changes when people reach that age. Not sufficient to bleat that it is their terms and conditions, and not provide an explanation why they put an age restriction at that point. Should be ashamed and have just lost me as a panellist.

Consumer pulse have now credited all points that were owed.Thankyou for your reply.

Like the other recent reviews - been with them for years and points now not updating. No response from their help desk yet (emailed a week ago).

Update: the help team contacted me swiftly and the issue has now been resolved.

I have been with them a number of years, I haven't had credit (over 3000+ points worth) I have contacted their helpdesk no response.

I will change my review once this issue has been resolved.

The business stopped crediting rewards points and it avoids giving an explanation concerning the issue. They owe 3-4 recent survey credits. I'm not fond of the way how they managed this.

Update: The support team has contacted me and demonstrated a decent handling culture to resolve the issue. I believe that the temporary technical issue is going to be resolved.

Further update: the team said my point would be credited in 48 hours but that hasn't happened. I tried to reach out to the business but it took me to the voicemail.

Eventually, the business resolved the issue. they had seemingly a technical issue. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

I have been with Consumer Pulse for several years and have found them to be a reliable company. I often don't have anything to record from the categories given lately but still checkout as you get 500 points. I have built up a lot of points and the only criticism I have is the lack of choice for rewards. Most of the reward options are not of any interest to me. National Express is one I would use but you can only order vouchers in £10 multiples and only use 1 voucher per transaction. It would be better to have a few higher denominations so that we could get £20 and £40 vouchers as well. Most journeys cost £20 plus. I would like Amazon vouchers as an option too. There are never any new rewards added so the choice has become boring.

I have been a member of consumer pulse for 10 years. I have redeemed probably more than a £1000 of vouchers in this time. I generally leave them until it is £100 and then use them at Argos or B&Q.

I have been a panelist for years with no problems whatsoever until I reached my 80th birthday when I was no longer required. On questioning this I was told that the demographic is for panelists between 16 and 79 but I can find nothing to say that anywhere. Is this not a case of Age Discrimination?
I have been informed that the age restriction is shown on the website's FAQ but as my access to the website has been cancelled, that was a stupid suggestion.

Very easy to do,always give voucher codes in good time and easy to redeem…been with them about a year now,I always get Just Eat Vouchers that I apply to my Just Eat account.

I've been a member 10 years and never had an issue, Get extra points for filling in telecoms and entertainment surveys. I would like more voucher options, but Argos ones give you plenty of variety.

I have made an entry almost every week for over 10 years whether or not I had made a purchase and have not had a problem until this week. I can’t log on and get the message - login failed, please check your login data. I tried to change my password but they didn’t send the link. No reply to 2 emails or a phone call.
Further to my review, I have now spoken to the consumer pulse help line and was told that the reason my account has been blocked is because I have just had my 80th birthday. Apparently they do not have panellists over 80!

They lock your account from the start so you can't access it but still send you surveys. Then send you an email saying they are closing your account. Complete time wasters. As I caught them out after a number of emails I did manage to get them to unlock my account so I could redeem my points. They still continued to lie about it. Disgusting!

I had been a member for many years, but due to Covid and various other personal problems, I did not logon for a couple of years. When I tried again I was unable to logon. I contacted them by email and was told my account had been closed. They also said it could be temporarily opened so I could redeem my points. The last time I contacted them I received this message.
"We do not have this email address registered to our panel. However, to access your account, you will need to use your registered email address with your Consumer Pulse account and the same password"
Having been a member for many years, I had always used the same email address and password ??
Also I was sent Argos gift cards worth £130 on 7/2/20. Soon after the pandemic hit and I did not get round to using them. When I did, I had to face the embarrassing situation of being told they were not valid. When I got my magnifying glass out, it said - "This gift card must be first used within 3 years from the date of initial activation". I do not understand what "first used" means. Also what is the date of initial activation.
Is it the date on the letter which accompanied the gift cards. If so why was I not made aware of it. If I had been made aware of the "initial activation date" I would have redeemed them within the time limit.
So here I am unable to redeem my points, which I think will be worth over £100, plus £130 in useless gift cards. I am 75 and over £200 would come in really useful in the present day financial climate.
