Cheated Again
« on: September 30, 2017, 10:15:03 am »
Since FC does not seem to care I will post my thoughts here.  I don't know about any one else but I have started saving the emails telling me I have been approved for payment for completing a survey.  I have hade the suggestion more than once that the surveys have an ID number.  I just got a notification saying an advertiser rejected my answers (in other words they did not like my opinion and decided not to use my answers or pay me) and payment had been revoked. 

I would like to see an ID number attached to the surveys so I can go back and see WHO revoked payment.  If anyone taking surveys completes the survey the advertiser as they call them should not be able to come back and not pay the person for their time.  You ask for people's opinions.  Not every one will give you the opinion you want to hear.  Smh.

I don't save FC survey invitations.  Just the ones that says I have received credit.  I thought I could go back and see what the survey was that revoked me.  But I don't have enough information.  I would just like to know.  Or see if I can remember the survey.

I got that email today also. Say8ng ,you payment was rejected. With some reasonns of why maybe I answered to fast.or something else. Now I can speed through those age,zip,education,sex,income,race questions fast now maybe I should take a little longer on some questions.

I'm very confused i been doing surveys here for over a year and never had a payment revoked ...but i also follow the time it tells me needed to do the survey,  i've done 1400 surveys on another site and had one  survey rejected .. but i knew it was going to happen i was in over my head. And kept going to get the DQ points ...  I have noticed allot more trick questions in surveys than before, maybe you need to slow down.!!

Uh I don't rush thru the surveys.  I can assure you I do not need advice on how to take surveys.  Been doing this since the year 2000.  And THIS site is the ONLY site this happens on.  And as you can see from comments on other threads in this forum I am far from the only one it happens to.

It's like this, in case you have not figured it out yet...

The companies manipulate the surveys.  They want to be able to say we surveyed x number of people and x number said this.  They get the numbers they want by rejecting the answers they do not like or kicking people out when you start giving answers they do not like.

It's like the one where I took the entire survey and the last 3 questions all related with the last one being
"Are you gay, lesbian, queer, trans whatever" and when I said NO I got the "oh sorry you do not qualify to take this survey".  I did get credited for that one after I complained. If they wanted someone who was gay to take the survey then that needed to be the first question.

The point is if you complete a survey then they should not be able to come back and take the money away.

Yes surveys for me is like swimming without the Lifeguard! It's at your own risk, of losing time. They pay too little to risk not getting paid and being disqualified :bad:

Hello! :D :)

I can definitely relate one time I completed a survey and it took like thirty to forty minutes to complete only to be disqualified. I personally feel that the first few questions should be used to see whether you qualified or not it certainly shouldn't take the entire survey. :rose: :heart:

The surveys are how I make my money.  I don't see how the ones who say they never do surveys are ever able to cash out.

Exactly.  I get that they want a specific criteria and that is fine.  It is their survey.  But ask those questions FIRST.

The worse was the one I took and at the very end it said OH WE LIED TO YOU ABOUT WHAT THIS SURVEY WAS ABOUT and blah blah blah.  Some may remember it.  We talked about it on here.  Had to do with telling what your ancestry was.  Funny how they want complete honesty from us but it is okay if they lie to us about who they are. lol.

But I totally agree. Eliminate people you do not want opinions from at the very start.  I am also leery of answering questions politically related or religious related at the end because most likely you are fixing to get the ax.
