I like getting paid for taking surveys but it is a little dishearted when you start taking a survey and when you get halfway done it says that you are disqualified :( :(

It is discouraging but all part of the process.  Even worse when you think you have completed it and then it disqualifies you

It's annoying when it happens, but at least we get a penny, more than other sites pay.  And these penny's can add up.

I can't tell you how many surveys I taken and gotten almost done and I get that message you don't qualify !!!!!  How rude is that !!   what a waste of time.   I still try tho but I only go for the ones that say they are under 10 minutes  LOL

I have been there many times and I've just learned to deal with it. It's the risk you take when you try the surveys.

Too me it is just  one of those things you deal with, doesn't happen often and it is irksome.  today i was very luck and got a few penny's  but stayed with it and ended up with $1.50 in surveys so my day was  ok.  I consider my self lucky to get 2 a day  as i do not sit too long at a time on the computer.

That is not as bad as when you finish the survey and then submit and it says oh you did not qualify.  Or my personal favorite the one we completed and then it says two final questions and those questions are :

Are you gay?  NO
Are you transsexual?  NO

And then we (it was for my teenage son) get kicked out.  It is all good because the site we done the survey thru went back and credited my account.  I guess they agreed with me....if you want a gay transsexual to take your survey then ask those 2 questions first.

It is annoying but part of the process.  Another problem is when I complete the survey quickly.  I zip thru those same old questions almost blindfolded age, race,  job, birthday etc.  It should not have a time limit because it's hardly ever the amount that's listed.  I had one that said 15 minutes and it lasted 29 and paid 14 cents.

Try being a 74 year old woman with no smart phone, no kids at home, no new car, living on fixed income, and rent my apt.

It is hard to get surveys that don't kick me out pretty quick. I stay with a few sites that I have a fairly good opportunity to follow through, but that depends on the topic.

Helps that I am the only shopper here for groceries etc.

The last few days have been better here for me on FC. Completed 2 surveys in about 4 days.

I need the extra cash, so i keep on keeping on.

I like getting paid for surveys too but I wish they were a little easier to get or they paid a little bit more so they would be worth it when you finally get one. I know that surveys weren't designed to make people rich, but they do take time to complete.

Exactly! epsically when I feel like if they asked me some questions earlier, I wouldn't have had to go through all those other ones.

Well if your profile supposedly says if you may qualify those questions should not even be necessary.  The time limits I understand because some people do not read the questions.  They just zip thru answering the questions to get the money and the company or who ever is doing the survey is paying for honest answers and are doing the survey for a reason.

Yes, it can a pain when you do not qualify after answering so many questions. However, some other websites keep you answering many other questions before disqualifying you.

This is the worse one for that.  And I have been thinking FC is the ONLY site that revokes payments later after you have completed a survey.
