The reviews really brought it home for me, as it's easy to get scammed over surveys and such. With a little organisation, it's fairly easy to achieve all 20 cogs quite fast. The average turnaround is... See more

Pretty good!
Pretty good!! If you aren't going to gamble but want to complete surveys and take part in trail periods for certain products such as food or kitchen accessories, then this for you~ I also received the money quite quickly; they are true to their word :)

A few days in. CS has been decent, but the majority of cogs seem to need you to pay for the opportunity of making your money, which is less than favourable when you see reviews of their payout successes - it seems a bit meh in that respect - I'm not foolish enough to do those pay to play ones anyways. I'm guessing it's impossible without doing at least one, so I'll see just how limited the opportunities are to complete 20 cogs without it, if at all, and then report back. Put in a free survey for each cog as suggested and expected on signing up, even if it's for 50p, and it'll be worthwhile, without it, it feels a bit scammy.. time will tell. Earn your 5 stars 20 cogs!

Hi,
Thanks for your email.
If you choose to complete an offer which requires a payment, we always ensure the reward we give out is greater than the amount you are required to spend.
Furthermore, you can choose to simply complete free 'no spend' offers if you do not wish to spend any money.
Kind regards,
The 20Cogs Team

Hi,
I am sorry to hear you feel this way. We flag accounts on the same IP routinely as part of our fraud prevention procedures.
Having multiple accounts on one IP does not mean that you are not allowed to use our service, however, we may require ID to confirm you are using 20Cogs is line with the T&C of use.
We did explain this to you via email and requested ID before you requested payment. If you had of responded to this email at the time there would have been no further issue and your payment would have already been processed.
Kind Regards,
The 20Cogs Team.
Very good experience

Started off well, now feels like a scam. Never received earnings.
Really enjoyed completing the cogs and spent a good few months doing so. However, I have been trying to cashout for months now and keep being fobbed off that I will be in the next pay day and it never arrives.

If I would had read the reviews before starting the 20cogs journey,I would stop straight away!!!! I successfully completed all 20 tasks, and when I wanted ted to log in, they SUSPENDED my account for no reason. Apparently, they say is because of duplicate IP, which is NOT TRUE.I worked for nothing, and I have a big hole in my pocket thanks to 20cogs.I will make sure I will let everyone know about this company, so people can realise what kind of company they are. Not a serious company, because they use you to make money, and after they just stop your account and your money. No good.

Hi Vlad,
As mentioned in our T&C's, our system will often automatically flag accounts to protect us against fraud, this is usually because of dupe names, IPs or email addresses. If this is the case and your account is totally legitimate we will approve your account with 24 hours of receiving your ID and your payment will be released.
Please respond to the email provided in the ID request to resolve this.
Kind Regards,
The 20Cogs Team

Probably would not recommend 20Cogs
Probably would not recommend 20Cogs. I began it ages ago and it has taken me months for what is not even that great of a monetary outcome. It encourages a lot of gambling (which is just not worth it) and you may end up spending a lot of money. A lot of offers do not track and you have to send screenshots for confirmation. Overall, do not recommend it as a quick way of earning some cash, just not worth it for the time and effort and sacrifice of personal information.

Thank you for your review.
It's a shame to hear you wouldn't rate 20Cogs higher and recommend 20Cogs to others.
The time it takes to complete 20Cogs is completely depending on how quickly you complete your Cogs. Once an offer has been completed in can take up to 30 days for the retailer to confirm an offer which is industry standard.
We believe 20Cogs to be simple way of earning some easy money from the comfort of your home, or on your mobile on the move, and it's sad to hear you do not agree.
Kind Regards,
The 20Cogs Team.
This is a great way to make a bit of cash but it’s not quick
This is a great way to make a bit of extra money but it can take a long time. I started 6 months ago and only just managed to cash out.

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience.
I am disappointed see that although you found 20Cogs to be a great way to make a bit of extra money you haven't rated us higher.
Members can complete and receive payment in as little as 30 days from start to finish.
If there is anything you felt we could improve on, we would greatly welcome your feedback.
