Conclusion

The collected reviews show recurring problems with reward fulfilment: many users report delayed or unpaid vouchers and PayPal redemptions. Account suspensions and blocked access are frequently mentioned and appear to affect both recent and long‑standing members. Communication is often described as automated or unhelpful, leaving users without clear explanations. If considering Toluna, monitor redemptions closely, keep records of claims and start with smaller reward amounts until you are confident payouts are processed reliably.
