Suckered into doing a survey via daily survey
« on: March 29, 2012, 09:37:56 pm »
Am I the only one who clicks on the daily surveys via fusion and the survey i try out for is something completely different from the survey i do?

For example I,ll click the quick yogurt survey, the prequal will ask me many questions have me complete two full surveys on unrelated material that i am not getting paid for then disqualify me and im done, they dont have tp pay me or fushion and they still get two surveys out of me..


anyone else being abused in this manner?

Although you've deemed this as "being abused", that isn't an accurate description of the survey process. What apparently happens is that when a survey-taker's demographics don't qualify them for a particular survey, alternate surveys, (with alternate demographic parameters), may be offered. Prescreening questions are used to determine general demographics sought by the surveys. These prequalification questions are not the main survey itself, (even if these can be extensive and time-consuming and sometimes deemed as "being abused"). The process can be frustrating when DQ'd and your reaction is understandable.

One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

I had that happen to me too. Drove me crazy. Then I get the boot. How can they tell I'm not qualifed if they aren't asking me questions about the survey subject.

Yes, sometimes I get a different survey than what it claims it is in the title, but I will try it anyway and if I complete it I always get paid no matter what the survey title claims and that's what really matters to me.

I've had this happen to me, but if I complete the alternate survey, I still get credit. Actually once I got more money from the alternate survey than I would have gotten if I had done the original one, so that is fine with me!

It is indeed frustrating to be taking a survey and then get redirected to another survey where you are in limbo.
