TAP Disappointment
« on: January 29, 2020, 04:40:27 am »
I do TAP Surveys on FC but also another site. Yesterday, I completed a long TAP on the other site and was awarded only a penny or two. I received the money that I would have received if I had DQ'd. I went to check my account thinking that I would see that I got full payment but was disappointed to see that I only got the DQ amount.

Some weeks ago, I had a similar experience with TAP on this other site. 

This usually does not happen with TAP but it is a real disappointment and even a shock when it does.

I understand the frustration. That exact thing happened to me here on FC not too long ago. It is not the best feeling given how much effort was put into the survey. For me, it was even more disappointing because I actually enjoyed the survey. As I am sure you are aware, all we can do is keep trying.

it has happened to me a few times but not as often with tap as it is with other surveys... but at least we get a dq bonus unlike the others which give us nothing at the end no matter how long it took

it has happened to me on other survey sites but fortunately not very often on TAP. Usually this does not happen on TAP. That is why it was such a shock and such an unpleasant surprise.

surveys are a great way to earn but they can be a hit or a miss. Take your time. be honest. Read each question thoroughly before you answer.

PTC and Forum help boost earnings. A lot of members love Tasks but I am not good on Tasks.

Post your question to me as a separate post asking for hints on ways to earn and other members will jump in with tips.

I have had issues with tap for over a year now. I have not got DQ points for about 15 months. I used to love Tap Research.

I use Tap on other sites as well and some of them don't even give you a DQ bonus at all. I think FC is the only one left that does.

Ahh that's no fun! Once I got through a good portion of a survey and it kicked me off without giving me a DQ bonus.
Opinion: 1) a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter 2) belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge
This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

That is a disappointment. Doing a long survey and later getting disqualified can be frustrating. It has happened to me before. A DQ bonus is better than nothing.

I feel your pain.  I got .40 for a DQ on Tap yesterday --- one of those times I got distracted and was away from my computer for about 20 mins. in the middle of the survey -- when I came back, I answered 2 more questions and was dq'd.  Happy for the .40.  Then, a bit later, I completed a 15+ minute, complicated survey and received .02.  Frustrating, disappointing and head shaking, but its the wonderful world of surveys!

Bostonphil, so sorry for your frustration!  It really is a shock when you've completed a long survey, expecting to get rewarded, then you find out you were not!  I've had my share of those disappointments.  It comes with the territory as you well know, just a little hard to swallow.

This happens to me a whole lot on other Surveys, but I have never had a problem with Tap Research. I wish everyone luck in getting Tap to work right again.
