Insta-DQ

[h_padgett]

Does anyone else get super annoyed when they click a higher-paying survey only to get an instant "you've been disqualified" message? I always feel somewhat cheated because I never get to answer a single question on these things. It just happened to me on one offering $3.30.

I know what you mean! I've had this happen so many times on higher-paying surveys.

Have to look at the bright side. At least you get insta-DQ'd rather than wasting your time answering many questions before getting DQ or errors.

Yeah I seem to get a lot of them

Since I never qualify for surveys (and on the rare occasion I do I get the "sorry our quota is now full" at the ends.  I will occasionally look for the dq pennies.  If I can be dq quickly it sure beats 10 steps of 24 secs of hyprmx for a penny!!

Yes, I know what you mean!  I guess it is better than going thru and spending time and then being disqualified though.

I would rather it disqualify me instantly then spend 5 minutes or more answering questions and then get disqualified. I had times were I spent 20 minutes answering questions and then get the message survey is full or you do not qualify for this survey.

it happens... your profile isn't what they are looking for is the most likely explanation... I'd rather that then spend time and be DQ'd

[teenangel]

i've had that happen to me to. but i still keep trying with different ones

My comment isn't an insta-DQ, but the opposite ... like this situation with a high paying grocery survey ... you qualify and are answering all questions related to your recent shopping trips ... survey continues ... it's very long and thorough because it goes through each of the trips you identified in previous question ... then when you expect it to wrap up ...
Message:  502 Proxy Error - Google Chrome
Received invalid response from upstream server  ___  Proxy server could not handle request   
Reason:  Error received from remote server

It's like hitting a wall head-on; no credit as no answers recorded, nor a DQ penny and losing a lot of time on survey.  I don't understand error message when I use my desktop PC exclusively and Google Chrome.  If anyone has a clue, I'd appreciate it.

I'll take the instant DQ over doing 20 minutes worth of questions just to get dq'd in the final 5 minutes.
