So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
-
I have had the same problem with surveys and I can't put my finger on why someone would get chosen for one survey and not another since the only thing they are asking for is your opinion. I believe that they are looking for people who may have the same opinion that they are looking for. So that the surveys can be slanted in their favor. Out of 1000 people polled 950 people chose this product. I guess the product they want you to have a favorable opinion on is the product that they are selling.
-
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 think this is true for everyone! I only qualify for about 20 Percent of the surveys. I personally think it is because of my age and I am retired but, who knows!! I really don't think anyone qualifies for most of them.
-
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.
-
You just have to keep trying even though its annoying and it never seems like it will work, you have to hang in there cause you will eventually qualify for something!! Good Luck!
-
me the 0nly survey i get is the ssi i give up trying the rest surveys :) :) :)
-
I never qualify for any surveys. One reason is that i work in market research and that almost always kicks me out of taking a survey.
The clients or advertisers are looking for a certain profile. For me, my demographics are more often not what they are looking for. I am a lower income senior citizen who lives in an apartment. I do not own an automobile. I have no children or grandchildren. I am not what they want. :crybaby2:
I attempt the Fusion Cash surveys that do pay me one cent for trying. I am usually DQ'd very fast so it does not take a up a lot of my time. There are other ways to earn on FC so I am very satisfied with what I do earn but I wish that some of the clients would want the opinion of lower income seniors. I am a consumer. I shop, eat and travel. I have a computer, iPad, cell phone and am bundled with my cable company. Maybe one day, there will be a survey just for seniors. ;D

The only ting I can think of is with the way the economy has changed living arrangements, some older adults have had to allow their adult children and grandchildren to move back into their homes, or in some cases, grandparents may be raising their grandchildren in their homes currently. But then that should have changed your total # of people living in the house. They may realize that it is a force of habit to reply that there are only 2 people in the household because it is more automatic to think of just the adults? Who knows , I gave up on the surveys a long time ago as well for many of the same reasons as already pointed out in this thread, too much time and a high percentage of DQ's. Just not worth the frustration to me.

I think you most likely have hit the nail on the head. Many things in marketing are controlled and numbers can always be manipulated to say just about anything that you want them to say, look at Enron! It does seem unrealistic and a bit unfair though to not include more age groups and different demographics, as someone else pointed out, all of us have opinions and spend money it just seems a little short sighted on the part of the marketers to exclude so many from their data.
-
i quit doing surveys i only do the video the paid to post the checking your email everyday because i never qualify it started good but now saying i don't qualify.
-
You need to fit the demographics the survey company is looking for. You also need to be consistent in your answers. The surveying companies are just as eager as you to get quality completed surveys. It is frustrating, but part of the survey taking world.
-
i have the same problem all the time. I dont get it either.
-
I also have this problem quite a bit when I do surveys. I never really understand it because I have always assumed that surveys were taking from variety of people but it seems like all the surveys I try to qualify on FC is only looking for certain people and certain answers.
-
I can be on a survery for 30 min then be told you dont qualify. They just are not worth it to me. None of the fusion surveys qualified but I answered questions for 20 to 30 min on them for a penny. Questions not even related to what the survey was supposed to be about.
The surveys must be ways to get spies attached to your computer. :BangHead:
-
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 with you on that, it sucks know that you fit the demographic qualification process only to fail the survey. SMH :)
-
Yah I know, that is why I only do the .01 ones. I least I get something. :-X
-
I too, cannt seem to qualify for many , if any surveys. I just keep plugging along, and every now and then I get surprized and actually qualify for a survey. Oh well, go figure. ???
-
I find that I do not qualify for many surveys...once in a while i will hit one after I clear cookies / cache. That doesn't always help....but I have read that a lot of people find that it does help them.
I have notice that many of the survey titles have absolutely nothing to do with what the survey is actually about....for example, today i had one for mobile phones...but when i clicked on it, it asked questions about high blood pressure, diabetes, and heartburn.....???
I also have learned that I cannot afford to spend "dedicated" time to attempting surveys....when I am sitting watching TV, or unwinding before bed I will sit with the laptop and try for some surveys ...while watching TV that is time I would not be accomplishing any thing else...so it's not really time wasted....but I am not taking time away from other things I should be doing.....if I dedicated hours of my day to attempting to qualify for surveys it could consume my entire day and I would get nothing else done.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
I would just be patient. Just like mom2taz mentioned, she does them in her spare time, so it doesn't feel like time wasted. I pretty much do the same. When I first started surveys were great, but then for a couple months it seemed like I could never get qualified. But now, it has picked back up again and been great. So I would definitely keep trying from time to time.
-
DO WE STILL GET PAID IF WE DONT QUALIFY ?
-
Re: I dont qualify for most surveys Why??
In my case,if i don't qualify the surveys they still give me 0.01 but in-order for you to get a penny you have to click the penny icon.
-
I'm in the same boat. I cannot get approved for anything. I just got turned down for a pet survey and I have dogs and cats. And, I've noticed it's a lot of the same old surveys popping up that I've been getting turned down for. >:(

I rarely try anymore. Its just not worth my time.
-
i have found it to be a numbers game, just keep trying as well as all the daily surveys from different survey groups. it seems like feast or famine.

I feel your pain...finally within the past 2 days I've been approved. I was really getting discouraged but just kept trying :thumbsup: Good Luck!

So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
Pay close attention to the...what I call the trigger question...on surveys I've received that inquire about cell phone service; everytime I would check "no" I would not consider a new carrier...I would get the "sorry but I didn't qualify...be honest but you can maybe tweek ??? your answers ;)
-
I qualify for a lot but there are always surveys that I am not targeted for. Just keep at it, you will qualify for some and the money will start to pile up (not that big of a pile.....but $40 or $50 a month is a nice little boost.
-
I get that alot
-
It could be alot of factors!! I only qualify for maybe 1 a month lately!! It could be your age, geographical area, sex a multitude of reasons. The surveys target a certain criteria of person and goes by your profile that you have submitted.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND what you are going through. I have repeatedly attempted to complete surveys by putting in a ton of time, effort, and following the rules as fusion has described them to me; only to be directed to a "possible web threat" page in addition to not getting any credit from the company who the survey involved and the one cent fusion promised for any surveys that i attempted but did not complete. What is going on here and how can i be compensated for all my time and hard effort. :dontknow:
-
Its crazy but alot of us don't qualify for them surveys
-
check back 2 or 3 times a week, consistantly and you will most likely qaulify for more surveys. when i dont qaulify for several surveys in a row, i wait a few days and try it again and most times then i get one. keep trying, and there are other ways to make money too, referrals, the dailies and cash tasks. good luck :wave:
-
you are not alone.. seems i take most of a long pre-survey then don't qualify. thus only getting the one cent. (Guess it's a penny for our thoughts)
-
advertisers are mostly interested in certain demographics, usually between ages 18-34. If you don't fit in the demographics, then you're SOL.
-
you are not alone.. seems i take most of a long pre-survey then don't qualify. thus only getting the one cent. (Guess it's a penny for our thoughts)
I am not trying to put Fusion down , but there have been times when I spent a good 10 minutes or more of answering questions, only to be directed to a "possible web threat" page through my router. Why does this happen?
-
I would do the SSI daily survey... I usually qualify for that every day or every other day.
-
everytime i try to do survey they always say sorry you dony quality why is that/ i wanted to do ll the syrvey on my board and didn't quaity. is there something you can so or find other way thay members like me can earn some money.
-
yeah, i wish they had more for everyone
-
??? Hmm, who knows............. I figure I never or rarely qualify for surveys because I am 58 and have no children under 18 but who the heck knows. I just know I wish I did qualify for more because that seems to be where the bulk of the online money to be earned comes from....but I manage to do enough on FC to cashout every month to a month and a half so I guess I will just be thankful for that since the money ALWAYS comes in handy - well best of luck to all ;D
-
its definetely demographics and timing. But dont get mad just keep pushing.
-
From what I have been told the surveys are based on demographics, and personal qualifications
what I don't understand is how can someone not qualify for the simple surveys
I have tried to do the ones about beauty products, online gaming, outdoor activities, personal finance ...etc, all the things I do and are aware of and I still don't qualify. I use beauty products, I play online games how can I not qualify
I don't know what type of quotas they are looking for and it does get depressing when you attempt so many and don't qualify especially the ones you know you should qualify for
-
Because if it's based on demographics, then they only need a certain amount of people considered in whatever categories for the survey. If you fit in a certain criteria and their quota has already been filled, then there isn't much you can do about it, no matter what kind of survey it is.... I dont know if this will help, but I find myself qualifying more late at night, you could try it.
-
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.
-
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:
-
I also do not get qualifies for surveys :(
-
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.
-
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....

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
-
I don't get surveys either. I don't qualify or there are never any Daily surveys.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
I don't either. It's aggrevating. :sad1:
-
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 have the same problem with offers they say i dont qulify i like knowv why also
-
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.
-
each offer has a few different surveys....if you are persistant enough(ie check in few times a day) you can usually get 1 or 2. They look for people with different demographics.....but they have surveys for everyone....just keep trying and be persistant. :D
-
Who knows? I thought it was my age group and the fact that I have no children under 18 in my house but that is just my guess. Funny thing is I qualify for more FC surveys than the ones that go through other links but even those I don't qualify for a lot of them but I am just happy for the ones I do qualify for.....now there is another survey site I belong to that I have done what I would guess is the whole survey including the statistical info at the end and then was told I didn't qualify...Excuse me what????????????????????????? Oh well, good luck to you :BangHead:
-
I suspect that many of you that are around my age (56) are probably disqualified for a lot because of our households. I am single, with no kids at home. Like many of you I suspect that they are looking at 30-40 year-olds with kids under 18. But with the boomer generation being a huge demographic right now, I wonder, why is? that? And the health questions are kinda lame, cause most people my age are still in relatively good health, so we get kicked out of those surveys too. Oh well. Just keep trying, and utilize all the tools at FC, and we will all still come out ahead. :thumbsup:

I totally agree. Whether you qualify or not they should give you something ALL the time, it dosen't say you'll be spending 1/2 hr answering the same questions over and over to find out you dont qualify, this is not right!
-
Ys, right. Irrespective of whether the vendor has denied it, FC should pay the money at least 50% of the total so that they value people's time. If I am spending 15 min on a survey and surveys gets denied later which is so frustrating
-

Independent contractors, (survey takers), are not being paid for time spent; they are only paid for completed surveys. FC doesn't get paid if the survey-taker doesn't get paid. Why would FC pay 50% for an uncompleted survey and lose money on the incomplete transaction?
-
I have come to the conclusion that age and location disqualify a "surveyee"-- especially age. My basis for this opinion is how quickly I am disqualified after those first few questions. Companies should realize that seniors are also consumers and sometimes have more discretionary funds to funnel into their products.
-
sad but true....the target age is usually 18 to 34 yrs old and i am r45, so i feel i get dq'd from surveys because of age as well
-
This is so true, I notice the same thing. I am 43 and most of the surveys disqualify me after they ask my age. This is not fair ans some should be done, but I doubt it.
-
Hey I was wondering why it so hard to qualify..
-
Hey I was wondering why it so hard to qualify..
I think the key to qualify for surveys is to check FC a couple times a day for any new ones. If the survey has already had a lot of people with similar age and background complete it then the quota will be full. So if you see a survey take it as soon as you can. I don't qualify for all the ones I try but I complete enough to make it worth my time. Best of luck to you.
-
i qualify for the biggest majority of them. i'm not sure why. they are just looking for certain age, race, location, income, etc. i guess i may be what they are looking for most of the time. who knows....
-
There might be people similar to you and/or your lifestyle that reach the survey first, so they might not need more of the same types of people
-
Went to the local community college and spoke to my old Introduction to Business professor. He is a consultant and has a PhD in marketing. Wonderful guy and a great teacher, and very knowledgeable on marketing and business matters. He explained to me that many surveys are looking for information from as was repeated in the room certain demographic groups. There is no favoritism or only picking one age, race, sex or other demographic. The surveys are all geared to the researchers needs so they are random to the people trying to take them.
I do a few surveys when I sit down for a rest and to listen to some music. I no longer concern myself with if I am going to qualify for a survey. Since it is rest or down time no problem. Good to work my brain a little. And soon I will try to emulate oldbuddy and surf the net for money while I watch tv. Right now the computer and tv's are in different rooms. I don't even bring my portable digital tv in the computer room. But I will try to bring life to my Dell laptop by installing Browser Linux the ways he said he did.
-
Don't feel so bad! Alot of people do not qualify for the Surveys. The last survey I qualified for was back in November. I don't seem to qualify for any of them lately!!
-
I think it is solely based on age, location, etc. Surveys have specific people in mind.
-
I think the surverys are just ways to get spies onto your computer. I quit even trying to do them. :BangHead:

Most or one out of ten i qualify. I didn't understand when i filled up all my info,date of birth,age name,zip code address,income,work,place born,resitand,how many member in family their ages,their year they born and months,grocceries,spent on bills everything that you can think of,they collect all those information and lasty sorry you are not match the survey.. How ridiculous these companies. You are right they are collecting something from us..
I make most of my money from doing surveys and have never had anything put on my computer to track me.
-
I tried again today and after switching me and asking all the same questions. i did not qualify. if anyone gets a qualifying survey let us know.
-

Yes this is so true. But it is not personal, just business. People with specific demographics in mind. ;D

im a teen i get screened out all the time

Just keep trying and you will complete some and be sure to check out the phone call offers. They are a great way to earn easy money and even save some if you like the quotes you get.
-
yea i hate that too doing a survey for an half an hour then only get one cent but i guess it better than nothing cents add up
-
I do get upset if I have spent more than a minute or two to find out I'm dq, but I try to keep my mind on the brighter side that I did at least get once cent. (I usually stick to the fc surveys).
Everyone keep your chin up and keep trying. Every penny counts these days. :wave:
-
Most people dont. Usually its cause most of the common categories are filled up.
-
It's the same with me, but the call surveys are very dependable. Have you tried them?
-
Too many people in the same age group etc so they say. They are looking for specifics.
-
Keep Pluging away you will eventually qualify :BangHead:
-
keep trying and you will
-
i to dont quilfy for surveys. i like to know why also
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
What is your age group ?
-
Same thing here
-
I have basically quit trying for surveys, i never qualify so why try. :(
-
I'm sorry for this, just keep doing them you will get, good luck!!! :)
-
I think it's hit or miss. Sometimes I do quite a few surveys in a row, and sometimes none. The FC surveys have always been harder for me to qualify for. I do better with the daily surveys, but they pay less. Qualify for a few though and they add up nicely :)
-
i never qualify but i thought it was just me
-
i rarely qualify
-
I have the same thing there time i gone alont way thinking yeah and than they say you
dont quilify now if thats not bullshit but i keep doing them as there other i do qulify
-
im to having problems getting quilify for surveys why
-
Lately, I have not even gotten the 1 cent for trying. I believe there are major problems with FC services now.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
Because it's all a scam. They just want you to stay on their site. Meanwhile, you could be at mturk.com making real money and not getting dicked on by scam artists.
-
I am also having trouble in qualifying for surverys, and at times I get 1 cent and sometimes not
-
I rarely qualify, either, but I still keep plugging away. Doesn't really bother me. I actually go in thinking that I won't get it, so I'll be pleasantly surprised when the time comes that I do get it!
-
Thats kinda what I do too. Go in thinking I won't qualify and the few times I do, its a nice surprise !
-
Been having the same problems for weeks now...... ??? :- :'(
-
they want you to have a disease, or have children under 18. they dont want an elder retired limited income person like me either. figure out what they want and you might qualify.
-
Theygo by age, sex, natiomnality. They say they try to get opinions from different criteria so that they have an imput from all.
-
I don't even get survey page anymore. I don't know what is going on with this but I hope that is going to get better.I watched some videos that did not credit either. You are not alone. :dontknow:Let's hope Fusioncash will fix this.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
Because it's all a scam. They just want you to stay on their site. Meanwhile, you could be at mturk.com making real money and not getting dicked on by scam artists.
LOL, just glad I was not recruited by someone like you, lol! Don't keep wishing for what you don't want JusTash83, because if it was so easy that everyone qualified for every survey they would not need us. So don't wish for what you don't want, because then it would not be an opportunity. As it stands now a brand new person can come in here and build up some free money, use it to finance some deals and make a bundle of cash. The person who got me to come here although I am not a referral of his has made almost fifty thousand dollars here so far! ;D
-
Ditto for me. But if everything always went well or as we want it to, what would we talk about in this forum?
-
The other day I got 4 surveys and neither one of them I am qualified. It gets tougher nowadays..
-

Some times your demographic may not be what they are looking for, other times they may already have enough responces. I check FC for surveys a couple times a day and have found that it helps me to qualify for more.
-
I hardly get credit for surveys either. I don't know why I disqualify. Sometimes the survey will ask me something like "how many times do you watch TV shows on netflix". I will answer something like 20. Then the survey will ask me again, and I won't remember what I put down in the first question, so I will answer 15. Does this disqualify me?
-
I have had this problem since start Fusion Cash. I don't even get the 1 cent for trying. I go through 15 to 20 pages of into stuff and then they throw me off. you know the words very frustrating! >:(
-
I go threw the same thing so now I dont really try to do the surveys because I always seem to disqualified and I never seem to get the credit for the ones I do complete.
-
This is one of the issues that we need to address to the end of the 2012 FC survey. It's a frustration that we have at times with the surveys. The survey companies should at least give us something to compensate for our time. It is not fair! 1love and have a wonderful weekend!!!
-
I don't qualify too often either. When they have the good paying ones, I try them, but tend not to try for the lower paying ones. :sad1:
-
I dont care for the surveys, I hardly ever qualify and you are right It must be our age, Im 57 too and a grandmother of 4
where are the surveys for us. lol ???
-
My issue is that even if I don't qualify fr the surveys, half the time they make me take "pre-screening" questions for upwards of 20 minutes before telling me I'm not eligible! If this site could filter out the surveys that do that or at least do some of the pre-screening automatically it would be a much better use of my time. I just filled out a video game survey as a 20 year old female that owns numerous franchises that they asked about and plays hours and hours a week. I was perfect for that. So they asked me about my gaming habits for 18 minutes and then said I don't qualify? Maybe because they already got what they needed from me in the pre-screening!
-
I agree! It must be age ( I'm 62). They want a younger point of view. I also have spent a lot of time on pre screening only to be told I don't qualify. Those companies should be weeded out. But I love Fusion Cash other wise!
-
What I have realized is whatever age group, race or ethnicity that the company is trying to reach, that is whom they want to try and get an opinion from. I have that same feeling and I am 36 yrs. In a way I feel that is should be open and everyone should get a chance to qualify for at least 3 per day.
:notworthy:

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM ,FEELING ??? :BangHead:
-
I dont like the surveys >:( UGG ! I never qualify, rather be working on something thats fun like the FC forum! I love to see what every one is talking about and putting my 2 cents in lol :)
-
Me too seen hard to qualify. :wave:
-
So far this month I don't think I've qualified for any surveys yet but some months it's like I get at least one a day, sometimes two. I guess it depends when they have some that fit my profile or just hit it lukcy, it all really depends.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
I'm to hear that and trust me you are not the only one. Surveys are looking for certain demographics. Some demographics are more in demand than others. Also they may fill up their survey quota while you are in the midst of taking a survey. I know it is frustrating and annoying but just keep on trying and you will eventually make it through a survey without being disqualified.
-
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 am impressed that you are able to cashout every month without the surveys --- HOW?????

:star:I still do the surveys but i know no one going to big bucks for little work. i giggle when they ask me if i am doctor, lawyer or a ceo of a fortune 500 company, like they would waste nearly an hour on survey that may or maynot pay less than a dollar. i guess i should flattered that they think a worker can order computors or it training
-
i dont get the surveys. i dont quilfy either. i depend on the dailys and paid to click and vedioer why
-
You're not alone...believe me. I just tried four of them and didn't qualify. One even went as far as to say "please click here for your reward" then told me I didn't qualify. I'm a few years short of 60 years old, no kids or anyone under 18 living with me, white, non hispanic, married...think that pretty much ruins it for me. So, I mainly depend on the daily 2 cents and 15 cents ones. I, do occasionally, qualify for a survey though so don't give up. I cash out at around $45. :cat:
-
I try to do all the surveys everyday, and I almost always qualify for at least one each day I try.
-
Just need to be persistent. Try all of the daily surveys until they run out of surveys and check them at different times during the day. Some days I get almost nothing and other times I can complete 5+. :cat:
-
I can be on a survery for 30 min then be told you dont qualify. They just are not worth it to me. None of the fusion surveys qualified but I answered questions for 20 to 30 min on them for a penny. Questions not even related to what the survey was supposed to be about.
The surveys must be ways to get spies attached to your computer. :BangHead:
:thumbsup:i agree not only do i not qualify for the survey but it slows down my computor with malware and spyware and the service i pay is getting frustrated with me because the shell ware is crashing their systems. i try to go to the restore point everyday
-
I am in that 30-40 age bracket and I rarely qualify for any of the surveys. It's hard to understand what I am doing wrong that disqualifies me as well. But as long as I am getting at least the 1 cent, I don't really care as much anymore. As long as I am getting something for my time and effort.
-
Try being in the 60+ category; its even harder to qualify for a survey! lol I keep trying though and sometimes, like this am I actually completed and got credit for a survey.
-
Me tooo. I dont know what is the reason why you dont qualify.
-
Friends,
There is nothing you are doing wrong when you don't qualify for a survey, it's called a con job! Survey sites just want your info but apparently don't want to pay for your time and effort. Recently I completed two surveys and after I was done the "You don't qualify" message came up, boy was I mad! I just hope this doesn't keep happening but it happens often enough that's for sure. Hopefully survey offers like Simplicious will fold up, they are the biggest waste of time there is!
-
i rarely qualify after spending 20 min giving information. i dont have children at home and i think that is what they want. :wave:
-
Me too -,- But it gets me mad when Some surveys asked a lot of quiestions yet at the end we dont qualify.
-
Age has a big part of qualifying for surveys too. Most surveys will only accept people 18 & older.
-
It's all demographics, AND how many in your group have already taken the survey. I get into about 20%
-
I use to wonder the same thing and then i realized that if my basic information do not match the criteria of the people giving the survey i would not be able to participate. They target a specific group who meet their standards and use them to take their survey so that they could get the results that they want.
-
So I get daily surveys but I vary rarely get to take the survey for the full amount only get the 1 cent for my attempt... Why is this???? :angry7:
BASED ON MY ANSWER TO SURVEYS I GET LEFT OUT ,YET SOMETIMES DONT EVEN GET THE 1CENT. I WILL KEEP TRYING ...
GOT ANY POINTERS?????? :thumbsup:
-
I don't usually qualify for surveys either. I don't really know why, but I have to agree it is frustrating.
-
I don't qualify for most surveys I attempt ,and I don't think anyone else does,either.It's not your fault.The survey companies are looking for specific groups of people to take each survey,such as a certain age,gender,zip code,etc.I have noticed,however,that the more I take these surveys,the more I qualify for.Keep trying.Sooner or later you will find surveys that fit your profile.
-
I agree that they are looking for a certain type of person for the surveys, I hardly ever qualify and when I do it is always a long hard survey, but I will keep trying! :thumbsup:
-
:BangHead:I agree with you fully. It's really frustrating to constantly be told I don't qualify for the surveys, but, in my humble opinion every no is one step closer to a yes. So hang in there and don't give up!
-

AMEN to that!!! I despise Simplicious!!!! I have yet after 2 yrs have qualified for any of their surveys. I too wish they'd fold up and go away. But there are others out there just as bad and yes...they need to go away too :angry7:
-
yup i never qualified either, i think they make you answer all does questions and then they say you dont qualified just so they dont pay you.i have completed other surveys and after i finish they dont pay you either. it gets me mad >:(
-
You are so right you can not qualify for some surveys and I think it is not right but we can not do a thing about it we just have to do the ones that we can do. :wave:
-
Yeah me too,I`m kind of give up on surveys. I just do the Task and video and radio.
-
I can relate to the 'not qualifiying' things, very frustrating to get the boot after a LONG time spent in the thing already. grrrrr
Then there is the even more frustrating 'survey failure' or the thing just goes away and you can do nothing about it. Anyone else have this happen? It happens to me often enough that I think that sometimes it is intentional, you know, the info they really want is already been obtained and they just quit the thing to avoid paying off... :)
Yeah, I am probably paranoid about this but was wondering if this is a common event for others as well... ?
-
I don't either. I don't know why. :dontknow:
-
The companies have told me that they have to have opinions from all ages, race etc. Someone had made a statement that they were being racist.
-
me either i only qualify for some others i dont but there are some that u might qualify for just keep trying :thumbsup:
-
I hardly ever qualify either. I also think it is because I am old, retired, poor and can only speak one language. I think they should actually be looking for MORE people like me because we probably have more life experience. :crybaby2: :BangHead:
-
I also have the same problem and can relate to most all your posts listed here, I'm a married 45 yr old male with no kids but I answer their questions with pure honesty and still get disqualified. Guess I'm not what they want a survey from but then again I think I help with getting the boot because when they ask how much you make yearly I always mark Prefer not to say. I don't think it's anyone's business how much I make. If I made a lot of money I wouldn't need FusionCash for help making me get by. To be honest after paying the bills and gas for the car I'm broke as a joke. Thank Goodness I found FusionCash the money I earn here helps me get by a little bit better for the month. :male: :wave: :peace:
-
I don't know why but the same thing is happing to me I got surveys when I firsat started and now I can' complete any.
-
to qualify for those surveys i think it is depend on the time you log in i also when it is early morning you can qualify :thumbsup:
-
oh surveys...their a pain in the butt unless you get to the end of one and then you feel like you've won the gold medal in the olympics. It's just percentages and you have to play to pay. Good luck!
-
i do not quilify for most surveys. please make them easier to quilify
-
Fusion Cash has no control over who qualifies for a survey! FC is basically an agent to bring you and the actual survey company together. This is no secret and it is very obvious just by looking at the headers on those clickable links to get to them, THOSE are the culprits that do the evil to bounce you out of qualifiying!! They are to ones that we need to be angry with. Some of them are so bad I just don't try them any longer.
Now, FC CAN control who they associate with as far as those that making offers on their sight. I don't want to cause problems by saying you should complain to FC. I think a better option would be to have a thread dedicated to this topic where members here could vent their frustrations and gripes about whoever is offending. I should think that FC would monitor such a thread and take appropriate steps with those that are abusing THEIR members. I am sure FC realizes that no one is served by having bad player in the arena!
Just thoughts on the topic...
-
i never get them EVER and i will get to 99% then get "disqulified" personally i think they let you get as far as they need then disqulify you and throw you a misly little penny for an hour of work :'(
-
I have the same problem, I use to like taking surveys but the more i took them the more i realized I am more waisting my time becasue honestly I never qualify for any of them so I just dont take them:)
-
Don't give up. If you give up you won't earn from surveys. The only thing you can do is keep trying. There are some days I get disqualify from a lot of surveys. But don't worry, you are not the only person, it happens to me and many other people. For Samplious Daily surveys, I almost never qualify for a survey. Sometimes it takes me several days for me to qualify for a survey from Samplious Daily survey.
-
recently I took a survey and I was going along nicely until I reached 97% complete. this was when I was notified that the survey was no longer available. I was answering the general questions at this time and couldn't figure out why I wasn't allowed to complete the survey.
-
I too have a very hard time qualifying for the surveys :-[
-
Don't lose heart and don't EVER give up - no one is going to qualify for ALL surveys, and SOME are going to qualify for more than others, simply due to demographics, i.e., age, children, job, income, etc... - hang in there, you will be glad you did - because you will qualify and you will get nice earnings too, so be sure to keep checking the tab for "FCSurveys" and try everyone that you see - I miss a lot of surveys, too, but I also make up for it by qualifying others throughout month... persistence is key and does pay nicely... Many Happy Earnings to ALL! :wave:
-
I was wondering about that. I've been learning how to deal with it. If you are single, with no children and don't drink alcoholic beverages. You won't qualify for alot of those. Not mainly ailments,
-
I never qualify for any survey, so i don't do it anymore.
-
I answered a daily survey this morning and got midway down it to be told I don't qualify. I did a music survey and actually qualified. It shocked me. It sounds as if your opinion doesn't measure up when you are older. I did more surveys at age 46, compared to now. Why bother when they tell you that you don't qualify? ??? ??? ???
-
im with ya all but i have updAted my profile and it a little better but still find it hard
i still try i wish the pay to call come back
-
I find I don't qualify for most surveys either but it doesn't take much time to find out so it's fine
-
I find I don't qualify for most surveys either but it doesn't take much time to find out so it's fine
Try the ones on the "offers" page and go to the "daily" section. Don't rush through them and answer honestly. I get 3-4 a day. Best of luck. :thumbsup:

Thank you for your advice.
-
yeah I get you with that Ms moneybags48, why do they pre qualify you first then afterwards tell you that you qualify then take you to the survey and you go through it for awhile then suddenly you answer a question so honest as can be then they disqualify you end of survey... you would think that would of happen during the pre qualify part not during the actual survey part I mean that makes better sense. I alway take the survey slow and not rush through it and alway answer with complete honesty yet this still just happens I get so upset sometimes..... :BangHead: :angry7: :BangHead: :bs: :dontknow: :confused1:
-
I agree!!! Also, what upsets me is that if there are more than one survey, and you try to do the first one and get disqualified, then you automatically get disqualified from the rest of them!!! Why????
-
this happen to me as well so what i did is update my profile and im getting a little more that
i quilfy for so you may want try that.
-
Thank you for that suggestion on updating your profile to try to get more surveys to try to qualify for. That would be a good idea to look at the profile every now and then just to make sure there isn't any changes in your life. Very good idea. I need to do that. I haven't done that in a while!!!
-
this happen to me as well so what i did is update my profile and im getting a little more that
i quilfy for so you may want try that.
I guess I need to do the same. I have not qualified
Much later either. Thanks for the suggestion.
-
this happen to me as well so what i did is update my profile and im getting a little more that
i quilfy for so you may want try that.
How does one update their profile? I can not find where to go to in order to do this? :dontknow:
-
same here :-[
-
THANKS FOR THE TIP TO UPDATE PROFILE. THINGS WE DO CHANGES IN OUR LIVES, SO ONE MIGHT NOT BE QUALIFYING FOR A SURVEY, BECAUSE PROFILE SAY YOU DO NOT EXERCISE, AND THEN YOU STARTED EXERCISING, SO THEN PROFILE SHOULD BE UPDATED, BECAUSE IF YOU GET A SURVEY FOR THOSE WHO EXERCISE, AND YOUR PROFILE INDICATE THAT YOU DO NOT EXERCISE, THE SURVEY WILL SAY YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED. ONE EXAMPLE.
-
finally got one :) :P
-
I barely qualify for any of the surveys. So don't bother to even look/take them. They ask you to be honest with your answers and when you do, they give you a 10-15 minutes personal infos/questionnaires and then the actual survey or a new window saying you don't qualify..or after 10 minutes of answering it stops and tells you any qualify..its annoying n a way. I think if they actually give you the surveys that you qualify for...just my opinion...
-
I'm not sure why (given that they have a persons profile) they don't just send you surveys you qualify for. In some cases the information changes, and in others the profile doesn't cover the topic of the survey.
-
I did not qualify for any FC surveys today. I wished FC admin would stop using Samplious survey as their survey router since most of the time I never qualify. I have not qualified for any FC surveys for the past few weeks now almost a month. If you don't qualify for any FC surveys then you can do the daily surveys by clicking the daily offers. They will help you.
-
I know I hate it I wish I qualified for more of them
-
finally got one :) :P
:wave: Me Too... As Fred Flintstone would say; "Yaba-Daba-Doo"... :thumbsup:

any one know how long on average it takes for a pending cashout to be approved???
-
I tried 6 of them today and got shot down for all 6. I know how you feel.
-
i feel the pain :(
-
happening to me. It was so easy to do survey when the first time i joint. Then i DQ most of the time.
Probably there is no more quota for matching survey with my profile.
Then i take a break from survey, i do TASKS, it is fun ;)
-
Same here, I think you have to meet certain demographics, although sometimes I am not sure how they can tell if you meet the demographics or not since you can click on the link and they say you don't qualify, not sure what bases they are going by to immediately say that.
-
I am finding it harder and harder to qualify for surveys now. I do not even get a chance answer a few questions to see if i can take the survey. I may fit the button to take the survey and then I would see "Unfortunately you do not qualify for this survey"
-
i have noticed the same thing! so frustrating! i will just get the message, and i take it immediately only to find out i either don't qualify when i should or it has already reached it's limit! so frustrating! why send email if it is useless?! oh well.bt, this is so frustrating to my family as well, here i am trying to make some money for us because my husband just got ran over by a 12 ton dumptruck and i am spending HOURS online trying to do this! .....sigh...oh well, and then alot of times they expect you to pay like a dollar or something and i don't even have that! rrrrggggg! lol
-
Today I started 4 surveys and completed 3. I usually have to take about 6 or 7 surveys to complete 3, and some days I may not qualify for any, but I keep trying because I know that I will eventually get approved to take at least one survey. Don't give up keep trying.
-
I AM DEFFINETLY GOING TO TRY A FEW SURVEYS TODAY AND SEE IF I WILL HAVE AS MANY QUALIFYING ONES AS I HAD LAST WEEK. REALLY MUST NOT GIVE UP, THAT IS SO TRUE.

Im sorry you are having a difficult time. Hope things get better. The posts here are supportive and encouraging.
-
Which surveys are the best on this site and are able to use most often? How is everyone making money besides surveys? :)
-
Thanks FC I finished 75 task for 3 cents each, its amazing. Its quick and easy and fun. Love it...just like doing survey.
-
It happens to me a lot. It's extremely rare I will qualify for an FC survey since most are based on demographics. Sometimes the surveys are not what what are and that increases a bigger change of getting disqualifed. That's why I mainly do the daily surveys instead.
-
I DID TRY OUT FOR SURVEYS YESTERDAY AND QUALIFIED FOR 4, AND GOT PAID INSTANTLY FOR ALL 4 OF THOSE SURVEYS. THIS IS FOR EVERYONE LIKE MYSELF THAT DO NOT NORMALLY QUALIFY FOR SURVEYS, KEEP TRYING. TODAY MAY BE YOUR DAY.
-
SPECIAL THANKS TO thtrngng AND ladavia89.
-
Thanks FC, I`m so happy I credited one survey today.
-
I dont qualify either. they want young folks with kids at home. :BangHead:
