I was solicited by Southwest to enroll in their survey program and with each survey, I would be rewarded points. Makes sense and I already get paid for other surveys where I am enrolled, so why not.
After an extensive account setup and answering a long, long list of questions, I get my first survey. This 15-minute survey is worth 3 points.
Since a round trip flight is typically 15-16,000 points, and the survey is worth 3 points, I would need to complete 5500 surveys to equal one round trip flight. And, if each is around 15 minutes, that's a total time commitment of 11.5 full days, 24 hours a day, of surveys just to get a flight. In that same time, I could earn well over the value of the flight, many times.
Southwest - you must have lost your mind. I will not complete any surveys. Goodbye and good night.
Who dreams this up?

I bet some surveys would earn more than 3 points.
People have come here in the past to complain about the points for surveys process.
That being said, everyone needs to decide whether or not to devote time to surveys.
i will not.

I've personally redeemed thousands of points filling out surveys. Most are anywhere from 25-150 points per survey. If you don't qualify for the survey, you get 3 points.
