surveys not paying... whats going on
« on: December 12, 2016, 12:33:19 am »
so about 3 days ago, I fully completed about4 or 5 surveys and did not get credit... for any of em! :'(

I have got credit for surveys before... but comon, not one of the surveys paid

Im starting to wonder if I should avoid surveys now, especially considering how time consuming they are

I would submit a support ticket and let them know. Hopefully, that would get resolved.

There have been quite a few members having the same problems including me.  I haven't had too many not credit but then again, I'm not attempting many either. Not only are surveys not crediting but I have been attempting a daily survey that has regularly been appearing on my survey page but when I try to complete it, I press submit and I get the notification that there are no surveys available at the time. 

I can understand that there is nothing available but spending the time to fill out the forms and doing so for about 3 days in a row only to come up empty gets a little old after a while.

I think it's time for a short break.  8)

I started having that problem also.  I did 2 surveys several hours ago and no credit for either one.  I was able to get credit for 1 video, but nothing on the surveys.  Such a shame!

Well I guess my short break is over: I just completed a Say So Survey for 50 cents.   :)

Amidst the frustrations there are still gems.  Keep looking the for diamonds in the rough.   :thumbsup:

Same here. Three surveys completed and didn't receive credit for any of them. Love wasting my time :)

There's an old saying, "Misery loves company."  I'm anything but miserable, but I am somewhat comforted to know other people are experiencing the same as I with some of these surveys.  Last week I spent around 30 minutes each on surveys that I thought, were "in the bag," only to receive zero compensation.  I've learned that with survey taking, you win some and you lose some.  It's just part of the process.  You just say, "Next!" and keep trying.  However, when I've spent over 30 minutes on a survey answering minute details without getting what was promised, I do have a few moments of frustration.

Yeah, did a survey 2 days ago. Surprised it didn't credit instantly. I guess it won't credit now? Figures, since it was one of the rare surveys I got that was priced over $1. :(

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

The last few days, I have had about 5 or 6 that did not pay. I can always tell when it's not going to pay because I get the green letters on a white screen that tell me that I completed my survey and will receive my incentive, but it does not credit.

I used to get one or two a week that did not pay. However, I have never had this many. Whenever I sent a support ticket on this in the past, they tell me that there is nothing they can do, and that they are at the mercy of the advertisers.

All of the ones not paying are the .75 cent ones. I am going to stop doing them.

I would like to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that it's delayed crediting, but I have yet to get survey credit from a survey taken weeks ago. It either credits right away or it does not credit at all.

Annoying, but I go on to the next one . . .

Guys:

Start keeping an eye on your total. I just had three to four surveys credited from yesterday. I guess there is some sort of delayed crediting. But I got credit for most of them.

So, keep an eye out; they're paying, just not right away.

Yes, exactly what I was going to say!  Yesterday I suddenly got credit for a survey I did a few days ago. So happy, I thought that cash was gone.
