Cheated Again
« on: April 22, 2017, 10:45:22 am »
First I will say this happened on another survey site.  I just completed a survey (with my 15 year old son) and it took over 30 minutes.  The survey was about brands he interacts with mostly cell phone companies and fast food restaurants.  He completed the survey was was told he completed it but they had a couple more questions.

First question - Are you gay?  He said NO.
Second question - Are you trans?  He said NO.

He was kicked out.  Said "sorry you do not qualify to take this survey".

So basically he was disqualified for not being trans or gay!  They should have asked those 2 questions first if they wanted a gay transsexual to take the survey!  I submitted a ticket on it but probably won't get credited.  It only paid 90 cents but still I got him to actually do the survey and then he gets kicked out for not being gay!  Oh I am  >:( !!!

I don't blame you. Jst had similar experience if not being paid
 ( also another site for 90¢)
Wanted me to sign up for something. Usually I ignore but wanted the 90¢. Signed up...Finished "survey" NO REDIRECT back to original. So basically signed up, for something I did not want in first place and DID NOT receive my 90¢.  >:(
I sent in ticket...Response was "Give us survey ID" which I did not have as result of no redirect... I told them I know not to trust next time and cashed out my earnings...$30
Live and learn..

I feel for you.  Something similar happened to me, I completed an entire survey (about 10 minutes), and the last question was are you gay, trans, or straight.  Since the survey was not about sexual preferences, I choose straight (which I am), but wondered why that question was even asked.  Next screen.....sorry you do not qualify for this survey.   ??? >:( >:(

Have been experiencing a lot of the same here lately.  I'm not:  gay enough; hispanic enough; or employed enough, AND I keep noticing that these surveys pay outs are getting lower and lower.  Peanut Labs has recently dropped down from 39 cents to 37 cents for a "10 minute survey."  What the h*ll is going on?

You're always taking a risk not getting paid with some of these survey companies.

You must tell them what they want regardless of the truth, sorry to say! You and your son could have had a big laugh at it towards the end and still gotten paid! lol

I don't get it because I'm doing surveys all the time, yes I DQ but here its a penny every time it happens, today I did 3 paying surveys here then add the DQ's  13 times   2 surveys were 75 cents each one 3 min one was a dime  then the PTC at .15  and my e-mail at 2 cents  so i made $1.90 messing around that's just here, I did 6 surveys on another site, and 2 on another.  And that's about normal for me about 10 plus a day around all the sites I do.

I think we all do! It is frustrating finishing up the survey & getting to the classification questions & then being disqualified. It will always be frustrating wasting all that time but we take the gamble of this every time we do surveys & since it doesn't occur a lot I don't let it effect me coming back daily & trying again.
