Getting taking advantage of in surveys
« on: June 16, 2011, 03:15:02 pm »
 ::) ...
I think it's unfair for the members to supply the surveys with so much personal information,
only to be told one doesn't qualifiy  10 to 15 minutes into the survey ... for a 20 minute survey.

I did not qualifiy for any survey today, although I wasted over an hour trying.
It's these type of actions by the survey's which makes me ignore any survey's over 20 minutes.
Why spend 20+ minutes on a survey only to be told you do not qualifiy

I only do the survey's once in awhile now for that very same reason.  They take a long time and many times I don't qualify.  I was discouraged at first since I had this grand idea I would be making at least $50 a month completing surveys.  However, I now primarily participate in the daily cash email, paid to click, videos, contests & promotions, paid to post, and occasional offers.  I'm only making around $15 a month, but I'm also not spending a huge chunk of time.  It works for me.

surveys are a problem on every site, I get the same thing.  I have subscribed to several different survey sites thinking that maybe I could make a little extra money because I am disabled and live on a very small income.  But after answering several questions on each survey, sometimes I felt that I had given them the information they were really looking for and then told me I didn't qualify.  It is a total waste of time and then you don't get any points for all the time that was wasted, therefore, I have also decided to do the other tasks that do pay, only if a small amount.  It is better than nothing.  At least maybe I can buy my grandbabies something for christmas by the time it gets here. :BangHead:

I'm running into the same problem, but not with My Survey. It's rare that they stop me in the middle of a survey. I make about $10 per month with them.

In my experience, some survey sites are better than  others. What makes no sense, is why if you are using a site like fusion cash, why they can't lump your basic information so that the survey sites now if you qualify before you enter your gender like 15 times, for instance.

I've never been 15 minutes into a survey and been cut off though.
