I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

Yeah its probably happened to everyone, and no it isn't fair.  Some company's surveys are better than others.  It won't take you long to figure out the more ethical ones, and then avoid the rest.  Good luck.

It's happened more times than I want to remember.  That's why I'd like to see an incentive to at least attempt to do the surveys.  Maybe a penny or so.  At least something to show the effort.
Have a wonderful day!

While it is possible that you came across an unscrupulous survey, it's also quite possible that the survey was detecting inconsistent answers or that you were rushing through.  In my over two years here, I've never had a survey disqualify me after 30 minutes and after they said I had qualified/been accepted.  But, that's not to say it can't happen!

Many of the surveys have ways of detecting if your answers are being consistent - ie. they ask the same question, but re-worded a different way later on, to see if your answer is the same.  They also use other tricks by mixing in amongst the questions things like "Leave this answer blank" or "Select Highly Disagree for This Answer" to check if you are actually reading everything.  If you're also zipping through pages quickly, even if you're reading everything thoroughly, it can raise red flags.  It's imperative to take your time.

I'm sorry you ultimately wasted 30 minutes of your time, especially if you were taking your time, reading, and doing everything "right".  Don't let it discourage you, though, from doing more surveys here.  The truth is, the good surveys far outweigh the bad apples amongst them.  Good luck!

I don't do the surveys just for that reason.  I figure what I get from the videos, the daily email, and the .15 daily reading, I will make enough money to cash out in the 180 days.  Then sometimes I see some nice offers I can't help not to pass up.  Oh and not to mention my $3 forum posts. I just don't have that kind of time to think that I am making progress, and then 30 minutes for them to tell me I didn't qualify.  It has happended probably all of us on here.

I've had that happen many times. I also completed a lot of surveys and never got credited for them. Fusion Cash says check account and when you click check account it brings you back to the same page that you were just on that shows all of the offers you clicked on and if you got credit for them or not.

Absolutely!  It's annoying.  I understand the various methods used to verify that the survey is being done honestly and have done many surveys knowing these measures are in place so do not waste time and risk being bounced by not providing information carefully and honestly.  With that in mind, cannot tell you how many times this has happened.  It feels like a crapshoot to even engage in these surveys but the upside is greater than the downside if one can tolerate these inefficiencies.

Sound advice, I see you have been with FusionCash long enough to figure out some of the problems. Yet there are a few that surprise me just towards the end as well. Once I have identified that particular company I usually stay away from them and look for other company surveys.  It is a learning process no?

I GET THIS A LOT....VERY FRUSTRATING AND YOU DON'T EVEN GET ANY CREDIT  :BangHead: I NEVER RUSH THRU THE SURVEYS EITHER. THE QUESTIONS THAT THEY ASK ARE LIKE YOUR DOING THE SURVEY AND YOU THINK YOUR ALMOST FINISHED, THEN THE YOU DIDN'T QUALIFY POPS UP....I AM STARTING TO FEEL LIKE THEY ARE JUST GETTING OPINIONS FROM US WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY. I REALLY HAVE NOT HAD THIS HAPPEN ANYWHERE ELSE.....I AM ABOUT READY TO STOP TRYING THE SURVEYS. WASTED TIME AND NO BENEFIT..... WE NEED THE SURVEYS TO GET OUR CASH UP, TOO....SO IT'S A NO WIN SITUATION  :-[

That has happened to me and it has to be more annoying than actually taking the survey and not getting the credit. Sometimes I think they ask you the amount of questions they need to ask for THEIR survey purposes and then tell you that you don't qualify so they don't have to credit you. When I say "they" I'm not referring to FushionCash.. I took a survey last night that usually always credits me and the survey lasted over 30 minutes and I never got credit for it. That happens from time to time.

It could be the survey is handicapped. It could also where it said, For quality control purpose check the I make love daily box and you missed it or didn't check the right box.

 
I was lying in bed the other night, looking up at the stars, and thinking, "Where in the heck is my roof?"

I think you should at least get some credit for your time you spent on the survey. Time is money.
