I get DQ'd a lot too... I assume its because I am in my 50's with no kids at home.  Although it is disappointing, I think its best to just be honest.... you will qualify for some, not others.  I don't think there are any "tips" to qualify --- since you don't know what a company is looking for.... they set the demographic and only want opions from those folks... if you don't fit their demographic, you are out. 

I admit It IS frustrating to see $3+ surveys and not get paid that amount, but I appreciate FC giving me .01 for just trying!

The best way to get the best chance at qualifying for a survey is to do it as soon as you see it.. That way there is less of a chance of your demographic being full already..

Surveys will always ask the qualification questions and all you can do is answer them honestly and hope they need someone with your demographic, and its first come first serve so the faster you are able to do the survey after it becomes available, the best chance you have to qualify.

its always 50-50 with surveys. its best to do them quickly each day before your stats get filled up. but this site isnt as bad as some ive seen.

The only thing I can say is to be persistent when it comes to the surveys. There is no specific strategy for taking surveys. Sometimes you qualify, and sometimes you don't. That's just the way it is. If they become too frustrating, just keep doing the daily e-mail, ptc, watch videos, do the free no cc offers, keep posting in the forum, and post a picture of your payment. You get the idea.

thanks everyone for replying back to be honest. I was starting to think that there was some sort of strategy to getting all the surveys done. Does anyone know what the best time of day to check on surveys?

There is no certain time of day to check on the surveys, just whenever you have time. I have qualified for surveys early in the day as well as late at night. What you could do is check the surveys during the day and check them again at night as sometimes they add new surveys by then.

I seem to have the best luck getting paid for surveys either 1st thing in the a.m. or late at night......Maybe that's when they look for us "Old" folks!  ::)

Surveys are a hit or a miss. I have been with Fusion Cash three years and only qualified for a survey maybe 5 or so times. There is no best time to check for surveys. I do it frequently during the day. My best success has been with the surveys under the Fusion Cash Surveys. At least I get a penny when I do not qualify, which is the usual.

I am a senior citizen and work p.t. in market research so my demographics kick me out of most surveys. It is never personal. The survey companies are looking for a very specific profile. Don't give up because sooner or later, you will meet the profile.  :wave:

I agree, surveys are hit or miss.  You just have to keep plugging away at them, eventually you will qualify and get credit.  Demographics are difficult because knowing what the survey companies are looking for would have anyone and everyone taking them.

Change who you were born to, lol, ha ha ha!  ;D  Since I got paid to find out (we get get paid to search) I researched "surveys". Only 3% to 4% will qualify for some surveys but it can go as high as 80%. If is 100% they may selling something. Otherwise it is not clear why all would qualify. I don't worry about the amount, my objective is to do $15+ worth to cashout. I still do the highest paying ones first especially the FusionCash ones. I have read some books on taking surveys, but only since I have been here. Started here 08-02-12, lots more to research. Since we get paid to search, I have found ideas online about taking surveys. I follow some survey experts on Twitter, etc. Have put FC admins. on my buddy list and read their forum post on various subjects related to your question. Good Luck!

no...i hardly ever get to take a survey the whole way through. i found that the earlier in the day that I take them the better chance I have of getting them done.
