What is YOUR Best Online Customer Service Experience of 2010… Let Us know!
This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 at 5:51 pm.

As 2010 is nearing an end, I thought it might be nice for all of us to think back through the last year about times when we encountered outstanding customer service. The kind of customer service where you want to scream from the top of the mountains “I LOVE this company!”… the great customer service that makes you want to shop with the company again and again and again… the wonderful service that makes you feel like a valued customer.
Check out this email I received from reader, Robin..
I had some awesome customer service this year, so I was wondering if you thought it might be a good idea for your readers to be able to submit their votes for best online customer service. Even if we could just submit our best customer service stories, it might be helpful to others looking to do online business.
With that being said, please take the time to share your best ONLINE customer service experience of 2010 below in the comment section (please note that the focus today is specifically on online experiences and NOT in-store experiences). In addition, I thought it would be fun to host a survey and determine which online company is considered to offer the BEST customer service by Hip2Save readers. If you would like to participate in this survey, please head over here. The survey will close at 11:59 PM EST on Friday, December 31st. I hope to have the results of the survey posted the first week in January.
If you love to share your personal experiences with others, be sure to check out these posts as well…

Your Favorite “Hip” Deal from 2010
Your Best After-Christmas Finds
**Also, please note that I recognize that with good customer service comes bad customer service. Although I know many of you may like to share your not-so-great customer service experiences, I would appreciate you sharing those at a different time. The purpose of this post is to give thanks and to acknowledge outstanding companies. Thank you.

Pinecone Research: Accepting New Applicants Again – Get Paid $3 Per Survey! Expired
This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 at 1:59 pm.
UPDATE: All available openings are full at this time. Hopefully, there will be an opportunity to sign up next week for those of you who did not get a chance to sign up today.
Pinecone Research is once again accepting new applicants and this time they’re not looking for just one certain demographic, so many of you may have a chance to become members. To get started, go here and answer a questionnaire to see if you meet any of the current recruitment needs. If so, you will be redirected to the sign up form page! Hopefully lots of you will get accepted!
Pinecone Research is one of the BEST survey companies out there! You’ll get paid $3 for every survey you complete! That’s a lot higher than most companies. You’ll also have the option of getting paid via Paypal or a check.
Check out what readers had to say…
Just yesterday, I came home from work to find a box on my front porch. It had a stamp on it that said, “Frozen contents, open immediately.” Then I saw that it was from Pinecone Research. I recently did a survey from them about a certain frozen food product (not allowed to disclose the name) and they sent me a free bagged frozen skillet meal to try out! It was packed in a nice foam ice chest (that I can use again) with dry ice. Once we try it for dinner, I will fill out another survey online on how we liked it. It’s so much fun! I love doing surveys with Pinecone Research.
I love them, too! I haven’t taken any surveys that lasted any longer than 20 minutes or so, and I receive my check for $3, usually within 3 days or so. I usually do about 2 surveys per week, so I only make about $25 a month, which is better than nothing for sitting at the computer!
This site is great! I signed up a few weeks ago and already have received 4 checks for $3, just got one today too actually. It isn’t a lot, but I have a feeling it will add up.
