Title: Has anyone done a survey for a half hour then gotten the sorry you dont qualify
Post by: charmaine56 on October 12, 2011, 07:55:10 am
I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

Yeah its probably happened to everyone, and no it isn't fair.  Some company's surveys are better than others.  It won't take you long to figure out the more ethical ones, and then avoid the rest.  Good luck.

It's happened more times than I want to remember.  That's why I'd like to see an incentive to at least attempt to do the surveys.  Maybe a penny or so.  At least something to show the effort.

While it is possible that you came across an unscrupulous survey, it's also quite possible that the survey was detecting inconsistent answers or that you were rushing through.  In my over two years here, I've never had a survey disqualify me after 30 minutes and after they said I had qualified/been accepted.  But, that's not to say it can't happen!

Many of the surveys have ways of detecting if your answers are being consistent - ie. they ask the same question, but re-worded a different way later on, to see if your answer is the same.  They also use other tricks by mixing in amongst the questions things like "Leave this answer blank" or "Select Highly Disagree for This Answer" to check if you are actually reading everything.  If you're also zipping through pages quickly, even if you're reading everything thoroughly, it can raise red flags.  It's imperative to take your time.

I'm sorry you ultimately wasted 30 minutes of your time, especially if you were taking your time, reading, and doing everything "right".  Don't let it discourage you, though, from doing more surveys here.  The truth is, the good surveys far outweigh the bad apples amongst them.  Good luck!

I don't do the surveys just for that reason.  I figure what I get from the videos, the daily email, and the .15 daily reading, I will make enough money to cash out in the 180 days.  Then sometimes I see some nice offers I can't help not to pass up.  Oh and not to mention my $3 forum posts. I just don't have that kind of time to think that I am making progress, and then 30 minutes for them to tell me I didn't qualify.  It has happended probably all of us on here.

I've had that happen many times. I also completed a lot of surveys and never got credited for them. Fusion Cash says check account and when you click check account it brings you back to the same page that you were just on that shows all of the offers you clicked on and if you got credit for them or not.

Absolutely!  It's annoying.  I understand the various methods used to verify that the survey is being done honestly and have done many surveys knowing these measures are in place so do not waste time and risk being bounced by not providing information carefully and honestly.  With that in mind, cannot tell you how many times this has happened.  It feels like a crapshoot to even engage in these surveys but the upside is greater than the downside if one can tolerate these inefficiencies.

Sound advice, I see you have been with FusionCash long enough to figure out some of the problems. Yet there are a few that surprise me just towards the end as well. Once I have identified that particular company I usually stay away from them and look for other company surveys.  It is a learning process no?

I REALLY HAVE NOT HAD THIS HAPPEN ANYWHERE ELSE.....I AM ABOUT READY TO STOP TRYING THE SURVEYS. WASTED TIME AND NO BENEFIT.....

That has happened to me and it has to be more annoying than actually taking the survey and not getting the credit. Sometimes I think they ask you the amount of questions they need to ask for THEIR survey purposes and then tell you that you don't qualify so they don't have to credit you. When I say "they" I'm not referring to FushionCash.. I took a survey last night that usually always credits me and the survey lasted over 30 minutes and I never got credit for it. That happens from time to time.

It could be the survey is handicapped. It could also where it said, For quality control purpose check the I make love daily box and you missed it or didn't check the right box.

Toluna is the worst for this!Yes! consuming 20-30min.of your time,then pop-up states sorry this survey is full,or you did'nt qualify.
Your personal responses are used for other purposes,and credit for your space of time is benefiting someone else.

Happened to me a number of times, even though I read and answer everything properly. Sometimes, when the quota fills up, I think the survey says "you are not qualified, after 25 or 30 mts, but other times, I think it is the survey companys way of avoiding payment, even after getting all the necessary responses. May or may not be true, but that is what I think.

When you get that far and it says sorry the data is thrown away. if you dont get the credit it is illegal for them to keep the info you supplied
Title: Re: Has anyone done a survey for a half hour then gotten the sorry you dont qualify
Post by: charmaine56 on October 15, 2011, 08:55:38 am
They are keeping the info. Because you start getting phone calls related to data you entered. And you dont even give them your phone number so they just know from other items you have filled out what your phone number is. Illegal doesnt seem to matter on some of the surveys. I might be wrong however.  I have found that OK I got my info from someone I offered to allow to call. Then a month later after I have explained to them I got the info allready please stop calling. A month later they start calling the cell phone at the hours its most expensive. Using the battery up. And knowing you have requested that you obtained the call you needed, and please dont keep calling. After a survey it seems the same folks start calling again. It somehow clicks in a way that all your surveys that you did go into effect again. Anyway I know which company not to even qualify for now. Because they will say you qualified. They have you sign their terms to taking the survey and have you go on and on and on even a half hour then drop you. Just start writing down which ones do this cause its only one of them that get you to take a whole survey and drop you. ths is true of another place I do penny work for.

This just happened to me last night. The survey that I qualified into was an hour and a half long, not kidding. No credit either, but you can bet that my email is full of advertisement junk which, I would expect and accept if I was getting paid. I am under no illusion that I am selling my info and all I ask in return is .50 cents.

Yes it happens to me a least once a week. I have problems all the time getting my credit also. I am always sending emails saying I did not get my credit and most of the time I do get my credit the next day but alot of the times I have to wait up to sometimes 2 months. Doing online surveys is work and if you not like to work don't do them. Most of the time you make like nothing but sometimes you will make out with a big score.

Too many times to count.  Let's not forget those surveys where you spent 20-some minutes and then ask you to download some "inobtrusive" monitoring software.  If you don't, no credit and they still get all your info.  Then let's not get started on the so- called "error" pages that just happem to show up when you're almost finished.  It was hard to keep this response G-rated.

Yes it has happened to me on other survey panels, but not on Fusion Cash yet. I have to appreciated the heads up on some of things mentioned though. I gave this a high rating because of the tips some of you have suggested like for ex. Not taking a survey longer than 20 mins. I hope some more comments will be posted on tips on how to avoid that seeing as these survey panels wont compensate you. Thanks so much!! :)  :star:

Yep I have had that happen to me PLENTY of times. SO much time for no credit. I actually had this happen with a credit card offer. I even got the credit card and all and yet I received no FC credit for it. I put in 2 tickets about it (because the 1st one was never responded to) and the response I got back was that FC doesnt get paid either for it, if I dont get credit. But I have the credit card.. so how can I do the offer get he credit card and not receive FC credit.. This I must say tho is the only problem Ive had with this site. I plan on cashing out at the end of the month w/ my 1st check. Ive learned that since surveys can deny you after you've spent 20+ mins doing it I stick to the paid to click and videos, etc.

This shouldn't be an issue like everyone is making it out to be.

Any particular survey that does this will probably happen again.

Just skip it next time so you won't waste your time.

It's that simple.

Oh yeah.  Happens to me alot.  On some sites the admin will credit you anyway but most offen on this siter you just get a message that says if FC didn't get credit then they can't credit you.  You might want to file a support ticket anyway just in case it was a traceable tech error that caused the problem and not just a didn't qualify after you spent so much time on it.  That's aggrevating but over time you can learn which types of surveys collect a whole lot of info and then bump you out and which ones zip you through for credit.  Good luck.

It happened exactly to me  a couple of days ago (beer survey), I can't recall  if the host was Ipsos or SSI. However I sent a support ticket to the site (wasn't Fusion Cash, just to be clear) but I did not get any answer up to now. But that was not my first, it happens everytime as there are many survey hosts that are luridly UNETHICAL

It has happened to me so many times, I don't care to mention. It's very humiliating to have these people manipulate you into thinking you will be compensated for your precious time and effort just to have them say, " sorry you're not qualified.' Mind you they claim they're pre*qualifying you before you start the survey. I learned that they do it (cancel the questions) if the answers you give seem to be not what they would expect from you based on the pre-qualifiers & your profile.

I am so sick of those surveys ill be on the computer for a hour just doing the survey before the survey just so they can tell me that i dont qualify for the real survey.  With that time I could have done other offers  :bs:

After doing what they ask with two offers I never got a continue to next step after completing the offers one of them was netflix which I could have gotten cash from cash fusion for joining the trial. I am sorry this happened to you also. Some sites give the legitimate sites a bad name.

Charmaine, I feel your pain. Not only do you not receive credit for spending so much time on alot of the surveys...in addition, you have to deal with the neverending e-mails and calls if you give your real phone #. I pretty much stay away from most of the surveys for that reason.

Happens to me all the time.  I think I'm taking a survey when really I'm just qualifying. 

That happens to me every time I attempt a survey. I thought I was in the actul survey because they take you through pages, but it's just the pre-requisite.  :sad1:

I feel the same way. I focus on other things first like PTC, reading e-mails and watching videos before I attempt any surveys. If I don't want to finish a survey or I don't qualify, I feel better knowing I made something from the other things for that day.

Happens all the time,more times than I actually am able to complete a survey, yes very disappointing and disturbing that the only reply is that FC doesn't get [-aid if we don't get paid.If this is such a regular occurance, FC should drop the sponsor and save us all the time and aggravation. If they have less than a 80% payout rate- GOODBYE. What's the point? Obviously the sponsor is not ethical and we all experience the same thing over abundance of spam right after, even if you clear your cache etc.

While it is possible that you came across an unscrupulous survey, it's also quite possible that the survey was detecting inconsistent answers or that you were rushing through.  In my over two years here, I've never had a survey disqualify me after 30 minutes and after they said I had qualified/been accepted.  But, that's not to say it can't happen!

Many of the surveys have ways of detecting if your answers are being consistent - ie. they ask the same question, but re-worded a different way later on, to see if your answer is the same.  They also use other tricks by mixing in amongst the questions things like "Leave this answer blank" or "Select Highly Disagree for This Answer" to check if you are actually reading everything.  If you're also zipping through pages quickly, even if you're reading everything thoroughly, it can raise red flags.  It's imperative to take your time.

I'm sorry you ultimately wasted 30 minutes of your time, especially if you were taking your time, reading, and doing everything "right".  Don't let it discourage you, though, from doing more surveys here.  The truth is, the good surveys far outweigh the bad apples amongst them.  Good luck!

I have actually had it happen before. The alcohol ones are stupid in my opinion they almost seem like they DON'T want honest answers.

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

To tell you the truth that is probably the thing I hate the most about belonging to GPT sites. We need to keep in mind though it is not the sites fault (meaning for example Fusion Cash) that we don't get credit or get the don't qualify message at the end. I get very upset when I answer questions truthfully for 30 mins and the completion bar is at 99% and after answering the last question you click continue, and then it says "Sorry you do not qualify" or some other bull. Makes you feel cheated. I'm OK with not qualifying after answering a few personal questions, but after 30-40 mins, it gets under your skin. Best thing to keep in mind though is, if Fusion Cash gets paid, you will get paid.

Many of the surveys have ways of detecting if your answers are being consistent - ie. they ask the same question, but re-worded a different way later on, to see if your answer is the same. 

This is something that is not right, and kind of underhanded as you might interpret their question differently if they 'reword' it.
Those are the ones that usually take enormous amounts of time and its almost like a 'mind probe' or an 'interrogation' not really a survey.  :angry7:

When that happens to me, I am always so surprised that I didn't qualify.  I'm wary now, since it's happened so many times before, so I am on the lookout for whether or not I'm in the actual survey or the pre-survey to see if I qualify.  There have been several times that I was certain and thankful that I at least qualified for once, when I got the dreaded, "Sorry, you do not qualify."  It's always disappointing, but just makes it all the more gratifying when one DOES go through.  I will keep trying because it's a nice chunk when you get to complete one.

It happens so much that I pretty much have stopped trying to do surveys they just come across as bogus and FC always sends the same spin message back that they don't get paid if we don't get paid, but then they don't seem to be doing anything to clean up the non working surveys. In my mind if a vendor provides non working material they should be eliminated or banned from further participation. FC is bringing them people and potential clients and a wealth of information when we do these surveys and both the Vendors and FC should respect our time and involvement for helping them out as well. If not- just get rid of them and replace them with companies that will be honorable. Take care.

I found out it happens because some people move to fast through the survey's and the company has some kind of software that can tell how long it's suppose to take someone taking a survey. if you happen to notice in some survey's they will have a trick question that says "mark the box that says definitely no" or some question like that, if you don't choose that answer you'll be disqualified from the rest of that survey and you won't be paid for any of what you had already taken.

I agree with your answer! Thank you so much! I also feel that it is so very important to be completely honest with all your answers and make sure you read them correctly so that they do not disqualify you because you answered 2 like-minded questions differently. Good luck taking surveys everyone!  :peace:  :wave:

Make sure you read the requirements before clicking on the offer to start it and make sure you do everything it says you need to do. Also, on the FusionCash site you can click on Account and then Under Completions, but just above the list of completions you can click on "all of the offers you have clicked", then go back and click on the names of the ones that say "Not Credited" to make sure you have done everything you need to do .....my list now is full of JUST credited!!!

I REALLY don't understand the methods and strategies survey websites use to find people that march their surveys. They have you fill out information forms about you such as household income, interests, and hobbies. Then they have 20 available ones for you, only to know that you only qualify for 1 or none of them. We spend so much time trying to BECOME QUALIFY for that $1 or $5, and 99% of the time you don't. So.. I feel like it's a slap in the face, and it's sort of cheating our time and efforts!!

I have noticed along time ago in my adventure of doing online surveys that most of them are a total waste of your time, not only that you don't get credited for doing them after you have sat their and wasted a half a hour out of your day or you don't qualify and not only that but a lot of times you can complete the entire survey and then get to the end and after they have gotten your opinion and info they wanted Bamm all of a sudden you don't qualify. So they got your opinion for free, this will never stop their is way to many survey sites that gets a way with it. Their should be a tracking system , and if nothing can be done about it then come out with something new besides surveys, surveys and more surveys. They could make more videos available from you tube or something or more free offers to complete or a opportunity to get paid for more posts that you do . ::)

Another greedy person trying to cheat on the forum...

Yes, I have and this is very disappointing.  In fact, several of the surveys have ended in this type of response.  I think credit should be given if you take the time to fill the answers.  I receive several emails from the survey sites after receiving a "do not qualify response".

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

Yes, and sometimes I don't qualify right off and they have me fill out my info multiple times while they are trying to find me a survey. A bit frustrating but I know I generally qualify for more surveys if I do them like every other day than every day anyway. It cuts down on the frustration factor also.

I agree with Leung1245, because they take the time to gather all of our information and then they say you don't qualify. Keep in mind that they got from us what they need which our personal data and input. It is a form of trickery because there's surely a less evasive way to find out if we qualify, shame on them;(

I've also had a problem with one particular survey constantly asking me the same questions multiple times within a single qualifying round (not after it's said "You didn't qualify. Want to keep trying?) I swear, it asks me for my race 5 TIMES in one qualifying round!

I joined yesterday and I've encountered at least two like this. The thing about them is not so much that they make me feel like I just wasted 30 min of my life, but that they trick me. Many of them start out with typical questions and then they take you to the survey, making it seem as though you qualify(since you just answered a bunch of questions). As you said though, sometimes it's not until you have answered 20-30 questions+ that they tell you "ooooooooooopsssssssz u D0NTT kuqlify!  :sad1:

But as someone has mentioned, the good ones ought weigh the bad ones.

I hate when that happens.  I mean, why on earth would you make it seem like the person has moved on and then cut them off.  At the very least they should offer a progress bar at the top to alert the user that they are still qualifying or something.

That's why I tend to only do surveys on sites that give you something if you at least try, even if you don't qualify.  Normally it's so small compared to what you would've gotten had you been qualified, but at least I end up with something after losing a half hour of my life.

Yes, it has happened to me. Not often and for that I am grateful. I do take my time with the surveys and am careful to read each question, but I'm sure I sometimes make a mistake when answering. I did get a feedback once that my response to something didn't make sense and the survey ended. It was clear to me I must have misread something. For the most part, the surveys are pretty consistent and most will credit consistently. And by the way, even if you don't get credited right away don't give up hope. I have gotten credit for taking surveys weeks after taking them.

One survey company has, on more than one occasion, asked me at least 30 minutes of questions, taken me to the page that asks about my survey experience (the one that asks if you'll take another survey or not), then DQ'd me!

Yes, it has happened to me many times. I answered question after question and after more than 30 minutes of doing the survey it said Sorry You Don't qualified. I did not get paid and I got so tired and I got a big headache. Surveys are suppoosed to be fun not boring and a waste of time. We get enticed by the amount of money you get offered if you finish and complete the survey. I had tried different survey programs, only a few were bad where I had to answer questions and take offers that don't really appeal to me. Not only I would get disqualified, but I would get phone calls from companies offering services that I already have or I'm not interested at all. I think we have to play smart and decide what kind of survey we can take, You have the freedom of choice. :icon_rr:

You are so right. Once the survey company asks you about your survey experience after you've spent 30 minutes giving answers and comparisons and rankings, the assumption is that you have completed it to their satisfaction. Why would they ask for your opinion about your survey experience if you didn't complete it?

For a survey company to then tell you that you don't qualify when you did because they are asking you about your survey experience and you just spent 30 minutes giving your opinions, is a rip-off for everyone involved. I had the same experience, and I would be willing to wager that we both did the same survey.

Yes, there are those who will tell you to just suck it up. May they have the same experience....

I bet you are right, we probably did the same survey or at least a survey by the same company. Whenever a survey from them shows up, I walk away. I have 6 kids and a very busy schedule. I can't just throw my time out the window like that. I also looked up that company on a search engine with the word "scam" and found that others have had a similar experience. So, I guess that my advice would be to go into a survey knowing something like this COULD happen and decide if that type of outcome is something you're willing to accept. If not, then it might be better to choose another activity, task, or offer.

Sometimes, a survey's demographic-quotas fill while taking the survey.  There's no way to predict or, prevent this. Evenso, sometimes 'glitch happens'.

I agree with Leung1245, because they take the time to gather all of our information and then they say you don't qualify. Keep in mind that they got from us what they need which our personal data and input. It is a form of trickery because there's surely a less evasive way to find out if we qualify, shame on them;(

Sometimes a survey's demographic-quotas fill while one is taking the survey.  How would you suggest that something like that, which cannot be predicted in advance, be avoided except by not attempting a survey in the first place?

This happened to me once, i was so upset about it. I make sure if i do any of the FC surveys to make sure they are the 5 minute ones, so im not stuck spending half an hour on something that will disqualify me for no apparent reason. I recall getting disqualified after i selected my gender one time, i thought to myself, how discriminatory! anyway, i avoid surveys these days for that reason!   :-

I recall getting disqualified after i selected my gender one time, i thought to myself, how discriminatory! anyway, i avoid surveys these days for that reason!   :-

If a particular survey's demographic criteria calls for a different gender than the one selected, how is this "discriminatory"?  What if they were vetting for female survey-takers because the male respondants had filled that particular criteria quota; would that be "discriminatory" to male survey-takers?

Failing to qualify, (getting Dq'd), from any one survey depends on what may have 'gone wrong'.  The possibilities include, (but are not restricted to); rushing through a survey, providing inconsistent answers, being disqualified under demographic criteria, not clearing "cookies" before taking a survey, having a survey's demographic-quota parameters fill while taking the survey, or not leaving the completed survey/"congratulations" page up for 5-10 minutes.  Many of those things happened to most who've taken surveys before and they used to happen to me as well when learning the ropes. Evenso, sometimes 'glitch happens'.

Welcome to FC, doubtless you'll get the hang of it - don't forget to enjoy the site while making money.

Likely, that was a pre-qualification demographic sorting which preceded the actual survey, (and/or the demographic quote filled during the process).

Oh well, it's a shot in the dark that doesn't cost anything but time.

Life's a gamble.  You can't 'win' if you don't play the odds.

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.
 :BangHead:

I know what you mean. That to me is the worst survey I have ever taken. I take all that time to take the survey and then get sorry you don't qualify. I understand how angry you are right now. I did  one survey not to long ago and It took some time and I got sorry you don't qualify.  :bunny:

Of course; I've always admired the Aegyptians and they invented beer, (and lightbulbs, electrical generators, batteries ... pretty good for 8,500 years ago, no?).  Although I haven't tried the original Aegyptian beer recipe yet, I'll occasionally indulge in dark import beers or ales - which is probably why I qualified for that survey.

I agree with that time is money, and that's a lot of time invested with no profitable results.

Yes it is a dirty trick I've picked up on early in doing surveys.  Just like everything else in life there are good and bad.  Those are the bad.  I was told a long time ago to never ever download anything through a survey.  Anything that takes 30 minutes of my time had better be worth it.

I'm not an experienced enough survey taker to predict ahead of time which surveys have the lonnnnnnngggg qualifying questions.  In fact, several times I have been thrilled with the feeling of acceptance, and going, "Finally, I'm getting to take a survey," when I get the downer that I didn't qualify after all.  When I have been working on questions for thirty minutes and they are all about the subject of the survey, I always assume that I have qualified, but that's not always the case.  I just am grateful when I get to the end of the questions and it says I have completed the survey!  It's a good feeling when that happens!

Yeah it is. But after doing so many, you can start to tell when you are still going through pre-qualifications or when you have actually gotten to the actual survey. Even though sometime you can get to the actual survey and still get turned down. For me, sometimes I have really bad luck with them and then there are those days when it's just great. I have gotten 2-3 done a few times in less than hour. FC Surveys seem to be working better for me lately and I've been able to qualify faster and do a survey or two rather quickly. I used to never qualify for any or maybe once in a blue moon, but they are really starting to add up.

This only happens when you submit contradicting answers. Which means even though you might have not tried it, you submitted two answers that were not the same. Ex.
Question.. How many times per week do you drink beer
Answer #1 5-6 times
Answer #2 3-4 times

or...
Question... How many times a week do you drink beer
Answer... 3-4 times
Question... How many times do you consume alcoholic beverages in a week
Answer...2

These answers contradict each other which makes your survey invalid. They ask the same question twice (usually many questions apart) sometimes for many reasons which include to make sure your answers are exactly the same otherwise they can't use the results, or to make sure you are paying close attention to every question.

Well I have done surveys that take longer than expected to qualify for and then find out that I did not qualify for it. The most time that I spent on a survey and did not qualify for was about 15 minutes. Now I have taken a survey and finished it that may have taken about 30 minutes and did not receive payment for it.

This is probably the most frustrating part of being in an online survey panel--any of them--we all have been here.  But, one of the most recent additions to FC is the penny bonus when you are opted out of a survey--they won't be paid anything for your time, but your time is valuable to FC, so they will at least give you the penny for any surveys through them.  I know it's not much, but it is something, and I really appreciate it more than they can possibly know after one of the surveys--like the one I took yesterday--that did the same thing to me that your "beer survey" did to you.

I get the "DO NOT QUALIFY" alot, too!  I don't think it's FusionCash though.  If you notice the daily tasks and videos and such seem to always credit but the surveys--not so!  But if you notice the surveys take you to another website that then has control over your qualification for the survey!

I get so very angry after I go through all of that just to hear the words "Sorry you don't qualify". I also hear the words, however we have plenty of other surveys for you to take and then when I take them I get the same message sorry you do not qualify for this survey. So your not the only one who has taken surveys and has not gotten qualified for it.  :BangHead:

I like the ones that tell you right away that you don't qualify, saves a lot of time not having to answer questions over and over.  Makes you wonder why they do that, you'd think they would want everyones opinion about their subjects.

There's a certain persistence you need to qualify. When you DQ for one go to the other. I say that because eventhough you can spend a lot of time and get DQ, when you finally complete one you can forget all about the others you DQ for. It's really how much you want it. I say keep trying until you develop a thick skin, eventually you'll get to the end of them. :thumbsup:

I suggest that qualifying for surveys is a matter of demographics and what teh survey providers are looking for at any given time, (which changes with new survey criteria).  Since this changes at least daily, recommendations 'for' or 'against' taking ever-changing surveys are specious.

I suggest the MyView and SurveyHead.

Add Live Sample Daily to the avoid list.  I completed the PQ but then gives me a dead link to the survey.  DQ on a bunch previously there as well.

You can make any sort of lists you wish however, there's no "maybe" concerning survey demographics.  How many days running have you been getting paid every time for those surveys and what happens when the day arrives that you get DQ'd for them?  A non-recommendation?  The point being that any given survey can result in qualifying or being DQ'd.  There is no 'list of the ones that always pay'.

People want to know where others are getting paid.  If I get consistent credit = approved.  Sorry you didn't have luck at it, but you have to be a wishy washy consumer.  If you make your mind up you will be DQed.  I didn't make the PQ in one of them but they quickly shifted me to one I did qualify and complete.  It is running three days of success now on the approved list.

Every survey has varying pre-screening and screening qualifiers, depending upon the demographic criteria sought by survey provider at any given time.  Qualifying for one provider's survey one day is no guarentee of qualifying the next day for theirs under different survey criteria.

The ground-pounder based his conclusion upon the false assumption that the Live Sample survey was a clinical trial screener.  It may have been for him but, wasn't for me, (likely because of differing demographics).  It is to be hoped that he can learn to avoid making false assumptions in other decision-making once he's redeployed.

It's entirely possible that those "few final questions for classification purposes" vetted your demographics out of qualifying.  It can be annoying when they filter demographics at the end, (sometimes they do so to assure input matches with previous responses though).

It's entirely possible that those "few final questions for classification purposes" vetted your demographics out of qualifying.  It can be annoying when they filter demographics at the end, (sometimes they do so to assure input matches with previous responses though).

Well, man!!!  They need to do some checks in under 20 minutes!!!  That was 1 cent for 20 minutes.  3 cents an hour.  That's a pretty good working wage!  hehe

Today I had 2 of my surveys rewards revoked. I think that is a bunch of  :bs: I completed those surveys, they took my information then declined payment.

I am NOT upset with FC, but with the companies that took my info and then denied payment.

The same thing happened to my account today; two revocations with no specific explanation beyond the generic ones.  As you say, FC has no control over this however, there's got to be some internal accountability within the survey provider companies, (though pragmatically, they may be unable to provide thousands of different specific reasons for each revocation, hence the 'form letter' format).

I felt the same way until I realized some surveys do comparison checks at the beginning, middle or end to check for discrepancies but, the end-of-survey vetting/DQing can feel like one has been 'taken', especially if the comparison checks show no discrepancies.  Sometimes, our particular demographic slice of the pie gets eaten before we finish a survey too.  Pie happens, apparently.

I just had one from a company, who's service I actually then used, credit me for completing the survey and THEN deny the credit over a week later.  Now that is dirty.   Especially since I'd requested and been approved for my first cash-out right before that happened.   Oh well.   Now I know better than to waste my time with surveys.

I get denied on surveys all the time, but I keep on plugging along with them.  I figure one of these times they will approve me and I'll actually earn that prize.  I think I can count on one hand the number of surveys that I have actually been approved for on one hand since I started here on FC.  But I always try them anyway.

Yes, this has happened to me and it really makes me mad :angry7:.  Another thing that's happened is that after you're, say, halfway into the survey and you click 'next' for the next page, there's a message that says, "Error, page can't load" or something like that.  IDK, I think it's done purposely so they don't have to pay.  But I get denied all the time on surveys saying that I don't qualify.  So if the majority of us don't qualify, then I have no idea what type of person these companies are look for.  Maybe some with a fish face :fish:, lol.

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

I have come to accept that this is a site that offers little assistance with such issues. Therefore this problem with the surveys seems like it should be fixable but it is not because we are only getting 65 cents for our 30min of effort. The message is suck it up and deal with it. For that reason...FUSION will forever have a place in my heart.

yep, 90% of the surveys I do, I get half way through and they say I don't qualify.  They should do questions at the start up that will either qualify or disqualify you.  It wastes a lot of time when you could be doing something to earn money.  All the sites are like this, not just fusion cash.

While it is possible that you came across an unscrupulous survey, it's also quite possible that the survey was detecting inconsistent answers or that you were rushing through.  In my over two years here, I've never had a survey disqualify me after 30 minutes and after they said I had qualified/been accepted.  But, that's not to say it can't happen!

Many of the surveys have ways of detecting if your answers are being consistent - ie. they ask the same question, but re-worded a different way later on, to see if your answer is the same.  They also use other tricks by mixing in amongst the questions things like "Leave this answer blank" or "Select Highly Disagree for This Answer" to check if you are actually reading everything.  If you're also zipping through pages quickly, even if you're reading everything thoroughly, it can raise red flags.  It's imperative to take your time.

I'm sorry you ultimately wasted 30 minutes of your time, especially if you were taking your time, reading, and doing everything "right".  Don't let it discourage you, though, from doing more surveys here.  The truth is, the good surveys far outweigh the bad apples amongst them.  Good luck!



I have done many surveys like he does that ask the same question like your nationality or age or income and you spend fifteen minutes to 30 and never qualify.  I agree it is not worth the time sometimes.

I think I'm going to seriously consider giving up the surveys.  I answer the questions for at least 5 to 6 minutes and then get disqualified.  I don't know what they want, but seems like it shouldn't take that long to disqualify a person.  I don't know how a person gets qualified for any of these surveys. I really like this FC site for everything else, but not the surveys, just don't qualify for any.  Its very frustrating. ???

THE QUESTIONS THAT THEY ASK ARE LIKE YOUR DOING THE SURVEY AND YOU THINK YOUR ALMOST FINISHED, THEN THE YOU DIDN'T QUALIFY POPS UP....I AM STARTING TO FEEL LIKE THEY ARE JUST GETTING OPINIONS FROM US WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY. I REALLY HAVE NOT HAD THIS HAPPEN ANYWHERE ELSE.....I AM ABOUT READY TO STOP TRYING THE SURVEYS. WASTED TIME AND NO BENEFIT..... WE NEED THE SURVEYS TO GET OUR CASH UP, TOO....SO IT'S A NO WIN SITUATION  :-[



Many times it happned to me also & now i have stoped  participating in such long surveys... :BangHead:

I think that is the key if they dont sat with in five minutes that you qualify you should stop.  I still like to do them especailly the ones right after the 15 cent offer sorry forget the name but its a daily.  Any way the ones after that I can usually qualify for one or two a day.  Hope this helps.  Just try them when you have time to waste.

Yes.  And it makes me very angry.  They say there are no right or wrong answers but obviously there are.  You basically do the survey which they get the results from and then they don't have to pay you because they say you didn't qualify.  Well that should be determined within the first few questions.

You answer a question wrong and get kicked out.  I had done one for at least 30 minutes and then it went back and asked if I was Hispanic (I had done answered this once) and I said NO and it said oh sorry you don't qualify.

Grrrr. :BangHead:

FusionCash is not like a restaurant; our paying customers aren't you members but rather the advertisers and survey providers.  Members like yourself are independent contractors, and you get paid rather than paying us (like you do with most businesses).

We work hard to balance the needs of our members (without whom there wouldn't be a site) and our advertisers (without whom we couldn't keep the lights on).  This means a number of compromises: we have to limit the amount of bonuses we issue (we don't earn anything from it being your birthday... not to mention that with 2.3 million members we'd be issuing approximately 6000 birthday bonuses per day on average... not to FURTHER mention that if there was a birthday bonus, people might tell their referrals to choose a fake birthdate which is coming up soon so that they can get an additional bonus [and an incentive to falsify information is bad]).

As for survey qualification, it's a complex issue:
1) Surveys are often routed through two or more survey systems, and they rarely share information: so you may have to "qualify" for a survey multiple times.
2) Surveys are typically targeted at one demographic "slice", for example "males in the midwest".  Once the quota of "males in the midwest" is full, you wont qualify anymore.  You may see other people being credited for the same survey, because they're in a different 'slice'.
3) Since your qualification depends on your demographics (which you can't control) different members have different experiences with surveys.  For some, who are among rarer demographics, they almost always click through, qualify and get credited.  For others, among more common demographics, they have more difficulties qualifying. 

To belabor the restaurant metaphor, a survey provider might "order" 200 survey completions from "males in the midwest".  If we delivered them "females in new york" instead, they'd rightfully be dissatisfied; like getting fish 'n chips when you ordered a steak.  This is why taking surveys can be frustrating, inconsistent work.  If there was a way to improve it, we would, but you can't really tell a multi-billion dollar multinational research firm that their survey platform "needs to be fixed"...

Post by: hurfrd on November 05, 2012, 12:34:53 am
yes this has happened to me.  i think usually the higher the paid the harder it is to qualify. this is just what i think:  they don't really know if you are the target group or not. so what they do is they ease you into the survey  to find out if you are or not. instead of asking all the qualification questions in the beginning of the survey, they spread it out.  if you answer in any way that doesn't fit their target group any time throughout the survey they disqualify you. i think this is their way to check and find their real target group. and people who really want to fill out the survey wouldn't mind taking the time and contributing their 2cents.    i think by looking at the credits you can tell how likely you will qualify.  if you really want to do surveys you can start with lower paid surveys.  otherwise, you may consider doing daily tasks.  the paid is low but you are more likely to get paid.

It is good to read how this business works. When I do a survey I am thinking is this one where my odds are 3%-4% to get to the end or 80%. Since I now think those are the kinds of odd I have to deal with. Well lets focus on what can be done and not on what can't.  :thumbsup: :heart:

I don't do a lot of surveys for this very reason.  10 minutes is about my limit for doing surveys, so I do like it when the estimated time is accurate.  It is most of the time, but one time I took a survey for 30 minutes that was supposed to last 12 minutes.  Sheesh!  And I don't take surveys that slowly.  lol

Did you know you can make money posting to this forum? Since FusionCash is a PTC site, don't think all you can do is surveys. Do a lot of other free offers as well and forum post (like at least one per day) and it all starts to add up. Plus read the forum post for ideas. If you need something that FusionCash offers consider purchasing it here. I made two purchases on FusionCash that I would have made without them and saved some money. Ask around a few friends who may need some gas money. I just got and email from a person wanting some help doing surveys, I will send her to my "test" blog. And thanks to the Twitter bonus two people commented about needing help. Just work FusionCash every day you can, become a leader, (brand yourself, down the line sometime) and things will start to happen.  :thumbsup:

It happens sometimes as surveys are extremely fickle. However, they still offer a good avenue to get cash. My approach to surveys is that I take topics that are extremely interesting to me and that way I get by with them. Once I see a topic I do not like or that I am not interested in, I quickly look for a way to exit. That has been my approach and it has always worked for me.

I agree sometimes but they are paying some people.  It would not be a good survey if they just paid everyone.  They need so many different kinds of people.  I find the earlier in the day I do surveys the more I qualify for.  Good reason to get up an hour early. Money Money Money.  LOL  maybe ;D ;D

16 minutes and plus another 18minutes all of them said i don't qualify. This waste of time. I think these are mailing list companies that just tried to get everyone

Oh yes! That has happened to me many times and it really irks me. By that point they have already taken enough info from me to be extremely helpful and have taken up more of my time than the survey was worth had I finished it. I try to send emails to companies that do that and explain to them that its an outrage and I will never do another survey with them again. Unfortunately they will always find new people every day to fill their needs. And new people will also get screwed the same way.

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

don't despair - just keep trying - cuz when you qualify - these surveys boost your earnings very nicely!  Lucky me, I qualifed for the auto survey and today's tasty survey - if you haven't checked out the new one - get it quick!  It's another $2.10! :thumbsup:

Best of Luck and Many Happy Earnings to ALL! :wave:

Happens all the time to me. About every tenth try I actually qualify and get a buck.  There were four available today on FC surveys. Tried one but about 20 pages it said I didn't qualify. Boo! I think we should be getting a penny for every question we respond to. I would be more willing to complete them that way,

The FusionCash Surveys can be very frustrating so I don't even bother any unless I have extra time on my hands.  I have gotten 99% completed then told that I "didn't qualify" ... I have also been told that I have successfully conpleted a survey but not been credited .... then there have been many that I should have earned my 1 cent that I did not get credited ... So after submitting support tickets I now understand that it is totally hit and miss ... So now if I get paid/credited for a survey, I just count myself lucky!

I am 54, and I have had so many of them, I stopped counting.  It sounds like the surveys I could do when I began doing them in 2004 are telling me that I don't qualify because of my age.  It is not fair, and it makes no sense.  Because I am older, that doesn't mean my opinion is less valuable than someone younger.  If you are going to tell me I don't qualify, do it earlier than 30 minutes after I start the survey, which means I wasted my time, and my time to me is valuable. ??? >:(

Yes it has happened to me. Often enough that I jot down the survey hosts name on 'long' surveys. I am doing this to try to ID those hosts that consistently do this. I strongly suspect some of them are literally stealing our input, but even if they are not they are stealing our time which is not without a value!!

If enough folks tracked this bogus activity it could identify the 'bad players' and FC might be interested in knowing about it!

Just a thought!

Also it is hard for most people to fit the specific catagories they are looking for. I mean really if you are a 30 year old  Doctor or lawyer etc. making a 6 figure salary you are not gonna be sitting around taking surveys. Just sayin

Ugh yes.  I did one for 32 minutes the other day then all of the sudden it says, "we're still trying to find a survey for you" after I spent all the time on it after stating I qualified and was starting the survey.  It seems to be getting bad again.  It used to be a year ago, but the last two months were going pretty well with it not doing that.  I feel bad, a bunch of my referrals had that happen after I was bragging how they're good about not doing that.

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.
 :BangHead:

I feel the same way when it comes to those survey it is so unfair to allow someone to take half the survey and to turn around and tell you you don't qualify happens alot to me ???

 Yes I have also run into this problem, I have since started keeping a log of the survey entities involved, so far no pattern has evolved but there are ones that I quit when I see who it is. Would rather pass up a chance to earn than waste my time.
 Also, how many times have you logged onto a survey valued at say $1.00 only to be told that it isn't available but are directed to a longer survey that's only worth .60 cents, or less??

This happened last night and I was ticked!  I had completed the survey.  We were done to just a few questions for classification purposes.  Then it asked for the company name of where I worked and MY first and last name and assured me it wouldn't be shared.  I also had the option to check a box that said 'do not want to share' and when I checked that box and clicked 'next' it kicked me out and said 'oh sorry but you do not qualify'.  THAT was NOT fair! :BangHead:

Yes, I have had this happen before!! It's very frustrating to input all the information, and then not get credited for it!! Also, the other thing that is so annoying, is you get the "we have a survey for you" page, and you click on it to start the survey, and you get "sorry you don't qualify!" But I haven't even answered any questions yet, how do you know if I don't qualify or not!! All in all, I still love Fusion Cash!! I have been unemployed for over a year, and every little bit helps!!

I can relate to this, This does happen sometimes more then I care for it to happen and it very upsetting when it does happen.

I did a beer survey today. I was into a half hour of it and thinking when is this going to be completed. They accepted me in the survey. I completed lists and lists of questions then all the sudden they said sorry you dont qualify. after doing the survey for a half hour. Now they could have done that at the beginning you know. That was totally dirty and it has happened 3 times now. And you know what will happen. I will get emails now having to do with my answers on the surveys. I also downloaded 2 of the games that were on the video page and did not get credit. Im thinking about this next payment to slow down and not to so much work on this place. Its just not being fair. And I think they know it and still get tags and spies on the computer for doing these things that are not crediting.

Yes quite a few times it happens.

You know what I did the other day which was just as bad?  I was doing a survey - said it was a 20 min one and here I was going on more than a 1/2 hour.  I started getting frustrated... watching my time and starting to stress so I could move on with something else.  I was interrupted and clicked out of the survey.  Than I couldn't find it in my history - with the new laptop I've never set the settings to save recent history when I clear cookies.  URGH!

That is the worst!  Because I'm also watching time closely I hate it when they do a switcheroo.  I'll pick a survey that says it'll take 15 minutes knowing that's all I can devote to it then all of a sudden they switch without asking to a 30 minute one.   :BangHead: :BangHead:

Yes, I've had this happen a lot! Seems like you have to do a survey in order to do a survey and lucky if you can get through the first survey in order to get the REAL survey. I happen to be over 60 and no kids so most advertisers are not interested in my opinion. I also get aggravated about the fact that they can never have enough ways to ask the same question.

This happens a lot, and is rather annoying, but I can understand why it happens.  The survey company requires X number of completions from specific demographics.  If you are already taking the survey when they fill up those completions then it will DQ you when it realizes this

I have been disqualified; but I do not remember for doing any that long before I got the pop up notice, indicating I don't meet the criteria, I imagine that would be frustrating to go that long and then be told you're not eligible. Hopefully, you will not experience to many of those.

Well, I don't know what aggravates me more. Being told I don't qualify when I click on and before I do a thing, or being at it for a long time and then finding out I didn't qualify after all.  >:(

The surveys are not equal opportunity for all. I personally like the ones that always let you finish them and earn a little bit. It doesn't seem like so much of a waste of time that way.  :confused1:

It's kind of like when you're not picked for the team if you know what I mean. Kind of left out 'cause you're not a good player.  ???

I get this all the time. They should not have you go thru a 30min. or hour survey to disqualified you. They no from your profile whether a survey is right is right for you.  But Fushion cash is much better, they will sometimes give you 1 cent with $ sign listed by the survey. In my opinion it should be all survey you don't credits for.

Agreed.

You should know the techniques on doing this surveys so you won't get rob every time you do it.

> Answer the questions like they want you to answer it.
> Don't rush things.
> Read carefully and avoid those verification questions.

If you do it the way they want you to answer it then you'll become a surveyor expert.   ;D

We have all experienced this by now, and the persons that set up these surveys should know that, what ever you dish out, is coming right back to you, and what goes around comes right back around. People just seem to do to others, what they would not like for them selves. It does not take over 30 minutes to an hour to know if a person qualify for a survey. We all have feelings. WRONG IS WRONG!

I haven't gone as long as a half-hour, but I have done 10-15 minutes and given a lot of info only to be told I don't qualify. Still, I have to say it happens less often to me on Fusion Cash than other survey sites. And Fusion Cash also pays more than other survey sites.

Please wait before doing so. I get that all the time. Especially on the dailey surveys. So what I do is not do the dailey everyday. So when I do I get more credit on maybe two to three surveys. Just do them when you can. Some surveys will give 1 cent for reading, that does add up over time.

That has happened to me as well.  Most of the time I do not bother with the surveys for that reason.  Occasionally I will give them another shot, but frequently get disqualified (because of demographics, I guess).  Usually it is fairly early in the survey but I get really disgusted after spending a lot of time before getting kicked off.

The surveys recently have been much better at screening me out quicker. I had one this morning that screened me out after about 6 minutes. Irritating, but like I said, usually I get screened out pretty fast. It's been a while though since a survey screened me out after 30 minutes. I remember when I first joined, that used to happen a lot and I'd get so discouraged.

Quite right. And then there are the survey-sites that claim to pre-qualify you before they send you over to the survey itself ... turns out they're only 'qualifying' you as "someone who will answer questions," counting you as 'qualified' if you answer HALF OF THE QUALIFYING QUESTIONS a certain way. After that, THEY DON'T CARE if you actually qualify FOR THE REST OF THE SURVEY as long as you qualify TO EARN THEM MONEY! :-[
