"We have a survey for you" - NOT!!

[FusionGirl313]

Ok, so I just spent 10 minutes filling out my information and they say "we have a survey for you, click continue to our partner site"  - so I did where I had to answer MORE OF THE SAME questions for another 10 minutes only to get a message that I don't qualify. BUT I WAS JUST TOLD I QUALIFIED!

This is a bit irritating. I feel like the companies use the "pre-qualifying" answers to get the information they really need.

I keep being bumped from page to page answering questions, saying they have a survey for me, spend a good amount of time answering questions, and then telling me I don't qualify.  So not cool!!

I know it's frustrating, but it's happened to all of us.  I don't mind when I don't qualify right away, but when you spend all that time and then find out you don't qualify grrrrrrrrr

Yes, it is very frustrating and discouraging when that happens. Imagine taking a 40 minutes survey and you're told you successfully completed it, but you never receive the credit. I've taken that survey twice with another site but never received the credit. There was nothing I could do about it. I just avoid taking that same one in the future.

From what I have read, most FC members have had the same experiences. I know I have. Suggest being patient and hang in there. The rewards will come.

Which survey company is that through? I only do the FC Surveys and I never have that problem. They tell me within a few questions if I qualify or not and I don't have to deal with the 30 minutes of qualification questions.

I know your frustration!  I now know to build into each survey time to go through filling out my basic info.  Expecting this has cut down on my frustration level.  I also limit myself to 3 or 4 attempts to fill out a survey for each survey site.  Filling out these surveys is certainly not as easy as I thought they'd be.

I have thought that quite a few times, and it is so frustrating. I guess it's just something we have to deal with.

I know!!! I hate that! But it happens all the time.    We are supposed to get one cent consolation for those, and I hope you at least got that.

[riceman]

yeah, it is frustrating. 
I think I might know what survey you took, is it My Thought Count survey???  I don't like them also, whenever I run into them, I just close that browser.  I qualified and completed their surveys once in a while in the past, but most of the time I got disqualified at the very end of their survey.  It's a waste of time, so I just avoid them whenever I can.

When I first started with FC, I did almost every daily survey site always trying to get everything I could. Mostly I wouldn't qualify but i would get at least one or 2 a day. Now that I do other stuff, I usually just do the daily stuff and the FC surveys. I still cashout just about every month

[tweety0412]

It happens. I have started surveys several times to think I am qualified and then half way through...sorry you don't qualify.

Just have to be patient and keep trying.

Good Luck

This happens to all of us.  I agree that they shouldn't have you answer half of the survey and then tell you that you dont qualify but it does happen.

[clickers]

Welcome! Just know that you're not alone. I too was very frustrated when that happened. I developed a very thick skin and soldiered on-- to find that there are a few pennies at the end of the tunnel for persistence!

hahahaha that's funny..and yup that is true!
