I think it has to deal with the amount of people who are alike or in the same areas taking the surveys and that they need to have a better mixture. Try doing them earlier in the a.m. It seems to work more then!

I think that the surveys are geared to get the responses that they are looking for. Once you answer enough questions for them to determine if you are giving them most of the answers that they are looking for, more qualified you will be to take that particular survey.

Of course they sort of gear it towards what they are looking for. They are looking for people in all sorts of categories that pertain to the subject of the survey. If you had a survey on beer and you put that you never drink it, then they will more than most likely disqualify you. It's a waste of their money to pay someone to take a survey on something that they know nothing about.

Dont feel bad, your not the only one who cant make it thru a survey. I keep on getting disqualified too. Ugh But atleast I keep trying. I only do about 3 a day then give up after that.

Well shoot, 3 a day is pretty good. I try to do at least 1. Doing 3 in one day is on a really good day for me.

I figured I do not qualify because of my age group.  I think they look for younger people on here.

   :) The key to doing the surveys is..being consistent with them and having alot of patience...I always get credit doing them...theirs days i dont get qualified but i don't give up...Don't give up, keep at them everyday...you'll end up getting ur credit...Their r 9 surveys total...So do each one every single day, don't give up...and don't stop doing them...if u stop you won't get anywhere doing it that way...The KEY in getting ur credit is that u have to keep doing all of the surveys once a day...u have to wait 24 hrs until u can do them again...and if you keep that up...u will eventually get ur credit...Trust Me, i know...you'll c...i hope this helps everybody...Let me know when u start getting ur credit... :)... :peace: :peace: :peace:

The short answer is: demographics.  A survey-taker will be DQ'd if these are not within the parameters the survey provider seeks.

Of course, one could try claiming to be a 'caucasian asian who is African American and hispanic, male and female, between the ages of 0 and 99, income between $1 and $150,000 and are deeply interested in whatever this survey is about' ... that won't work though, which is the point of vetting demographically.
One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

This is the very reason I quit trying the surveys (except for the FC ones that pay .01 even if you are DQ'd).

I am older, with no kids at home and I think a lot of companies are looking for people in their 30's-40's with kids at home....  What really made me decide to stop is that I would be asked the same question 2 or 3 times and THEN get disqualified.  I understand wanting a certain demographic, but with technology as advance as it is, I don't understand why, when I put in my b-date (12/29/1954), 3 questions later, I'd be asked for my age.   Or when I'm asked my marital status (married) many people live in my house (2), the next question is how many children under 18 live in the house.  It isn't brain surgery.  If you are 57 & married and 2 people live in the house, why would there be ANY kids under 18 (are there really a lot of 57 year olds out there married to 16 year olds?). 

Anyway, to save myself the frustration, I just stopped trying.  I am still able to cash out each month, and I am happy.

I totally agree with you on this the surveys can be annoying when you put in your info and they continue to ask the same questions!

True But the questions they ask you before you take the survey are all pretty much the same race job status etc.... its almost like if you dont say the right thing you wont get picked...
I agree! Even the simple surveys like the ones on beauty products, technology and shopping... etc, I don't understand why I don't qualify
my situation is a little different then most I'm 30, single, a student, unemployed, renting and my children live with there fathers during school months and with me in the summer. This does not mean I don't still use the fore mention products. This is why I stopped trying my criteria never seem to match any of them. I don't understand what does race, job status, married/single, age, and if you suffer from a specific illness etc has to do with the some of the simple surveys. But it's like you said if you don't say the right thing you wont get picked... but I will continue to be honest I just wont do the surveys

Surveys are iffy, some days you can qualify & get paid, then there are times when you won't. I generally don't do them because they ask the same questions over & over. Occasionally. I do get some credit.

I also cannot participate in most surveys.  I think it has a lot to do with where you live, your age, and what you plan to buy, etc.
