get disqualified after the survey is done

[potluck6]

Happened to me  a few days ago hate it to. Alright if it0 happens in a few minutes. When it gets to the end  after 20 minutes or more that's really annoying.

It has been happening to me a lot too. It has been happening a lot on swagbucks for me. Yesterday I did 3 surveys and had that happen.

yeah, and i know this is voluntary also, but still when somebody finishes what they started and they dont get whats promised then thats just like somebody stealing from a store or somrthing.

Yes this has happened to me, I completed the whole survey and then when I get to the end of it... I am disqualified.

Some other sites if you are allowed to complete the survey then you get paid.

[rraper]

yeah, ive been on other sites where on one of them you are lucky if you complete just one survey in two weeks. needless to say i let that one go.

I hate this! It has happened to me a few times this week and it is extremely frustrating. The progress bar showing that you've made it to the end just for them to kick you out. So annoying.

makes you wonder about the company and their products,doesnt it? if they going to cheat somebody out of their little bit of money that was earned, then what are they cheating the public out in the product they are trying to sell?

I spent one time 20 minutes only to hear it filled up at the end, sooooooooooooooo annoying UGH

[rraper]

No. I don’t find that unfair that they don’t pay you the full amount after over quota. They can’t use your survey for anything after they have already collected enough for research. However, they should pay you at least $0.01 to thank you for trying! No survey should have to be a serious waste of time!

it just makes me more cautous about doing surveys for that particular company

It isn't the same.  The surveys are to get results.  Sometimes they want a specific result.  I done a product test once and was allowed to do it however I wanted.  SO, I done it with kids and compared the product sent to me in a side by side test.  I was allowed to do this.  Test the product with others.  I just had to submit how I done it.

Anyway, in a side by side test the product I was testing lost.  The kids preferred the other product.  Same thing just a different brand.  It was like 9 to 1.  I thought they would want to know this.  But I guess not.  Because after submitting my detailed report I received an email saying they were not going to pay me.

I did get their product free. I bought the other myself.  Which was not a big deal and I had fun with the kids.  And the kids had fun.  But it wasn't right that they didn't pay me.  But the point is they wanted results that made them look good.  Same with the surveys.  A certain company is behind it.  When you are asked which do you like best out of 5.  The company behind the survey is ONE of those 5.  And if you say you will not purchase the one that is THEM then you are not going to get paid.  Even if that question is last.

And it tells you that you can be DQ at any point in the survey.

No, they need to not let more people enter the survey than can finish it.  When they have 10 slots left then only 10 should be allowed to enter.  If one of the 10 gets kicked out then they can add one back to the slots of available surveys to take.  It is like on TAP, I think, where it has the number of available surveys left.  This would not be hard to do.  That way you don't have 20 people click a link and do the survey and not get paid.  And you can bet your bottom dollar they DO use your answers.  Even if you do not get paid.
