Rant

[sfreeman8]

just gotta perservere

Why bother when they don't credit anyway?

I did a Consumer Study survey yesterday, COMPLETED IT, but never credited. The site stated surveys are credited almost immediately. I have submitted a "complaint" to the survey site but I won't hold my breath waiting, plus their message stated I would hear back within 6 days. Oh, goody.

I agree with the OP on the survey time. I noted that most surveys take twice as long as they quote. So because of the above and the OP's rant, my opinion of surveys have not changed. I usually am DQ'd or I completed them and never get credit. Last survey I got credit for was February 17. The rest were all DQ'd.

Okay, this is happening too often.  Where is the blame?  Wherever it is, it needs to be fixed. Over approximately the last 3 weeks, I have completed--yes, completed!--3 different surveys, and all 3 of them have disqualified me just when I thought I would be going to the "Survey Completed" window and receiving credit.  Over the last 4 weeks or so of 2016, I completed 3-4 surveys--I can't remember which one now--that also were completed but for some reason didn't credit. 

I can understand when this happens once in a great while.  There are always a few errors.  But this is more than a few.  This is getting to be downright taking advantage and fraudulent.  Yea, I'm beginning to be more than a little pi##ed!

I am new here but I really don't have a problem doing the surveys. Certain ones after being "misled" I just X out and don't even bother because I know they don't pay.. I can usually get at least 2 surveys done a day.
I can't make money any other way on here...Too time consuming...I blast through 10 dis-qualifiers and then I usually get 1 survey. That's why I only do the 15mins or less ones....

As long as I get the  for disqualifying I'm good. The surveys are not reliable so I don't rely on them. I do other things which ever is working for me at the time.

I disagree that surveys are a bad use of time. I've made a decent amount each month with the bulk being from surveys.

If I only earned from videos, I probably would not have stuck with this.
 

I agree....For me to jst do video, I would not make it.
I find that some of the surveys are best tried over the phone, can click through easier....I switch from phone to laptop...

There are times where they do not work and times where they do.  Many times I end up walking away for awhile when I dont see any results.  A break may be what you need.  I dont know...it is not a big money maker here.  I feel like there are a lot of time spend with little reward.  But, this is what we signed up for.  Not every survey is a guarantee unfortunately!

What is WORSE is to spend over half an hour on a survey for them to disqualify in the end. "Your Surveys" is starting to penalize survey holders for doing this. I put in a complaint to Fusion and got the usual "we are at their mercy" response.

I'm sorry, but Fusion can do something about this, they simply choose not to.

I can handle disqualifications; I can handle quota exceeded. What I can NOT handle is that four to five times in the last few days, I have taken longer surveys only to be disqualified in the late stages.

It is wrong; it is stealing, and it is irritating. If it were once in awhile, that would be manageable. However, it is becoming more of a habit lately.

I am not going to send any more complaints to Fusion because they never do anything, and it just irritates me further.

I am NOT happy when I see another survey site that will actually take survey holders off their wall for doing the same things that Fusion lets slide.

So, I ranted, and I'm done.

OK. I have to "rant".

I just did a "15 minute" survey that took 45 minutes. When I hit the submit button, I got the "Quota Exceeded" page and earned 1 cent!
Rant over.

I hate it when that happens to me and it happens a lot.

I just completed a survey, hit the 'done' button to submit and got this notification:

This survey was deactivated by the owner.

After about 20 minutes, not so much as a DQ penny; at least not yet.  I suppose if the questionnaire has been deactivated, the penny will probably be deactivated as well. 

[Angiesw]

I totally agree!  Spending time on a survey completing all the questions and then at the very end when you think you are getting paid you get a message that you are DQd.  That is not right.  I would much rather get the DQ message soon and get 1 cent.

[Tein7521]

Yea, that is discouraging big time!

[griserelizabeth]

This happens to me all the time and it does get frustrating. It's even more frustrating when you spent a lot of time on one survey and it disqualifies you/meets the quote right when you're about to be done. There was one particular survey that I spent 45 minutes on, was on the last question and it said this survey has 'met its quota'
