Verify a Communication from Woozle Research

Introduction

• Purpose of This Page: If you have been contacted by someone claiming to represent Woozle Research — by email, phone, LinkedIn, text message, or any other channel — this page will help you confirm that the contact is genuine, that Woozle Research is a legitimate company, and that any study you have been invited to is real. Most checks below take under a minute and rely on independent, official sources — not on anything we say about ourselves.
• Who We Are: Woozle Research Limited is a primary research firm founded in 2016, with offices in London and Glasgow. We conduct expert consultations, surveys, and market research on behalf of institutional investment clients, including hedge funds, private equity firms, and consulting firms. We compensate professionals for sharing their industry knowledge and experience.
• Why We Contacted You: You were contacted because your professional background appears relevant to a live research study. Participation is always optional, always paid at the rate stated in the invitation, and never obliges you to anything beyond the session itself.

Confirm Our Registrations

• Companies House: Woozle Research Limited is a private company limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales on 15 February 2016 under Company No. 10006042. You can view our live record directly on the UK Government’s Companies House register: find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10006042
• Financial Conduct Authority: Woozle Research Limited is authorised and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority under Firm Reference Number 791894. You can verify this on the FCA’s Financial Services Register: register.fca.org.uk
• Registered Office: 3 Shortlands, 3rd Floor, London, W6 8DA, United Kingdom.
• Trustpilot: You can read independent reviews of Woozle Research from research participants and experts on our Trustpilot profile. Trustpilot reviews are hosted by a third party and cannot be edited or removed by us.
• Why This Matters: The registers and reviews above are maintained by independent third parties — two UK government bodies and an open review platform — and cannot be faked by us or anyone else. If the company details in the communication you received match these records, the company behind it is real.

Why We Contact You from Many Different Domains

• We Operate a Large Number of Outreach Domains: Woozle Research owns and operates a large portfolio of dedicated outreach domains, and we deliberately do not publish a list of them. A genuine invitation may therefore arrive from a domain you have never seen before and that is not woozleresearch.com. This is expected and by design.
• Why We Do This: Contacting professionals at scale from a single domain is bad practice: it risks the deliverability of our main domain, which carries our client and business correspondence, and it makes every recipient’s inbox treat research invitations and business email identically. Separating the two across dedicated outreach domains is standard practice among established research and recruitment firms. It protects both sides — our clients’ correspondence and your inbox.
• Why We Don’t Publish the List: Publishing our domain list would give impersonators a template to copy and would go stale as domains are added and retired. Instead of asking you to check a domain against a list, we ask you to verify the company and the invitation itself using the checks on this page — which work regardless of which domain contacted you.
• Every Domain Leads Back Here: Whatever domain a genuine Woozle communication arrives from, it will always identify Woozle Research Limited by name, come from a named member of our team, and reference this verification page.
• When in Doubt, Go Direct: Rather than relying on links, numbers, or profiles in any message you receive, you can always type woozleresearch.com into your browser yourself and navigate to this page. If the communication you received is consistent with what you find here, it is ours.

How to Verify a Specific Communication

• Ask Us Directly: If you would like us to confirm that a specific communication is genuine, submit the details through the contact form on our website — include the sender’s name, the channel (email, phone, LinkedIn, or text), the date, and, for emails, the sending address. A member of our team will confirm whether it originated from us.
• Check the Details Match: A genuine invitation states the topic of the study, the approximate time required, the eligibility criteria, and the exact incentive amount. Vague invitations, pressure tactics, or shifting terms are not how we operate.
• Call Us Back on Our Terms: If you receive a phone call and want certainty, you are welcome to end the call and contact us through our website instead. A genuine Woozle team member will never object to that.

What Genuine Woozle Contact Looks Like

• We Always:
  • Identify Woozle Research Limited as the sender or caller
  • Communicate through a named team member
  • State the incentive amount, study length, and format upfront
  • Pay the stated incentive in full upon completion of the study
• We Never Ask For:
  • Passwords, login credentials, or verification codes
  • Bank or card details over email, text, or an unsolicited call
  • Any form of payment, deposit, or fee from you
  • Software downloads or attachments to open
  • Your employer’s confidential, proprietary, or material non-public information — in fact, our Rules of Engagement expressly prohibit participants from sharing such information
• Participation Is Always Optional: You may decline any invitation, withdraw from any study, or ask to be removed from our contact list at any time, with no consequence. Every email we send includes a way to opt out, and any team member you speak to will action an opt-out request on the spot.

Incentives & Payment

• Stated Upfront: The incentive for every study is stated in the invitation and does not change after you begin.
• Paid on Completion: Incentives are paid after you complete the study, via the payment method agreed with you during the process. We will never ask you to pay anything to receive an incentive — any such request is a scam and should be reported to us immediately.
• Payment Issues: If you have completed a Woozle study and have a question about payment, contact us through the contact form on our website with the study details and we will investigate promptly.

Report Suspicious Contact

• If Something Looks Wrong: If you receive any communication claiming to be from Woozle Research that does not match the descriptions on this page — or that asks for any of the things listed under “We Never Ask For” — do not click any links, return any calls, or reply. Report it through the contact form on our website with as much detail as you can, then delete it.
• Brand Impersonation: Woozle Research Limited takes impersonation of its brand seriously and will pursue all available remedies against parties misusing its name. Reports from recipients are genuinely helpful to us and are always reviewed.
