I seem to have noticed that the more money I make or when I start making a decent amount of money then I start having a ton of "revoked payments". Has any one else had this happen? If we do a survey they should not be able to revoke the payment. Seems to me if they do not like your answers they decide to just not pay you. If you take your time and answer the questions you should get paid and be able to keep said payment.

I have had a bigger problem with that lately too. I never know the reason, they just say it has been revoked. I wish they would tell me why.
-
i havent really been paying attention to that i will go check it out and see if anything is missing--thanks for the heads up
-
I had that problem in the past. I am afraid to do surveys now because I am afraid I may have my payment revoked. I know the feeling of this. I've been through that with the surveys.
-
I don't do many surveys, so I haven't had a problem so far. Do offer payments ever get revoked, or is it just the surveys?
-
I have been pretty lucky with that .. happens once in a blue moon ... just make sure when you cash out it is over $25 and enough to cover if they revoke one.

I think many of us have a payment revoked one way or another. Move on and be happy with what you did get credited.
-
I have not been doing surveys lately, therefore, no revoked payments. I've had probably $50 in revoked surveys over the years. I stopped doing them...
-
i dont do surveys very often anymore i got tired of spending several minutes on them feeling like i was doing the survey only to be told that i didnt qualify!!! if i spend ten to fifteen minutes on a survey i qualify they just dont want to pay me for my time. it feels very unfair. i do hate to complain about them but it is very frustrating.

I actually emailed a long time ago and received a response that said they could not tell me the reason basically because then I could change that and not be revoked in the future. I know I have read that they ask questions in different ways to see if you give the same answer and if you do not it shows you are not paying attention. Well, NO, if you ask me a question in 2 different ways the way you ask the question COULD change the way I answer you. That was about as much info as I was given. It is just frustrating.

You will get an email telling you that payment has been revoked. And if you look over to the left where you are awaiting payment (you should know what you have coming) you will see the amount go down. :(

Surveys are the only thing I have ever had it happen on. But stuff like radio loyalty, emails, searches, etc - there is really no way they can revoke that. The surveys they have told me that if the advertiser revokes payment then they can't pay us. It is up to the ones doing the survey if they want to accept your answers. If they make enough people mad enough to not do the stupid survey then they will not be able to get people to take part in the future.

Sorry, I cannot do that. Most of the surveys take way longer than they say they will anyway. I have surveys that say they will take 5 minutes to 10 minutes and end up spending 45 minutes on it and expect to get 75 cents. I had close to $5 revoked so that is a huge deal. Not a get over it and move on kind of thing.

Well at least I know it is not just me. I am about ready to quit myself. I don't blame FC because the advertisers are the ones who are revoking the payments.

That or you spend 30 minutes doing a survey and obviously answer a question wrong and then get kicked out. My favorite is the one where they ask my 13 year old son to participate. I call him to the computer (or use to) and they ask him 3 questions (questions I have already answered) 1) how old are you 2) are you hispanic 3) what is your race? He answers the same way I do. Then he gets "sorry you do not qualify". SMH

Actually it is especially if you did not answer the questions to their specification. Just because you think that your completion of a survey deserve of you a payment does not mean that you answered all questions that is of their specification.
-
I have been through this myself but luckily low paying amounts for instance 30 cents as of lately. I'm always kind of concerned it will happen again but surveys are the only way I make anything on here. I feel bad for the people that have had big amounts revoked.
-
I don't do many survey's do to the fact it's tuff to qualify for them.
-
All they want is your money!
-
Yep, I have had this happen to me. Luckily, it hasn't happened too often. I did have one revoked not too long ago, but I'm just happy for the ones that did credit and weren't revoked later on.
-

Your not paying them to do surveys they are paying you. So this comment really does not make sense.

I answered the questions and I completed the survey to the specifications of the survey. I may not have answered the questions they way "THEY" wanted me to. But if you cannot give your own opinion then what is the point of the survey. Point is if you complete the survey you should get paid for your time. Not be like "oh well you don't like our product and rated it down so we can't include your answers because we want to be able to say our product is in the top 3 according to surveys".

That's kind of where I am. Surveys are where I make my money. The daily email (2 cents) searches (5 cents) the daily 15 cents - 22 cents. That is hardly worth the time to log in. You have to have something to boost your pay. And you can only sign up for the offers one time. Once you have done all of those you need something like the surveys to make money.
-
I had one last month. But I wondered if it might not happen as I had already done that survey, but went ahead and did it again. Yep it got revoked. My fault.

i have to say that each day is one to 8e gratefull for
-
I have experienced it a few times as well, sometimes I ask in order to gain an answer, then find that it's out of FC's hands. It's best to move on and not allow yourself to be discouraged by it.
-
Interesting..... I have never noticed but now I am going to go back and check!!!
-

Well since it asks you to start with if you have done a survey on that topic basically asking if you could have already done that survey then yeah it will be revoked. :)
-
I got one the other day. I cared at first but by and large it doesn't happen much for me. i just decided to keep moving and made it back in no time! :)
-
I only had that happen to me once or twice but it does make you mad
-
I have never had a revoked payment that is good to know.
-
I only had it happen to me once. I don't really know why.

I answered the questions and I completed the survey to the specifications of the survey. I may not have answered the questions they way "THEY" wanted me to. But if you cannot give your own opinion then what is the point of the survey. Point is if you complete the survey you should get paid for your time. Not be like "oh well you don't like our product and rated it down so we can't include your answers because we want to be able to say our product is in the top 3 according to surveys".
I agree wholeheartedly with this. There's a huge difference in following the instructions of the survey and answering the questions according to those specifications and in answering the questions the way the survey companies want them answered. It's exactly right to question that if the survey company already knows the specific answers they want, what is the purpose of the survey to begin with? How many times have you gotten disqualified and the reason on the screen was "Your answers are not what we expected." I've seen that many times on various sites. I guess I didn't say the product was awesome when I should have or that I would definitely purchase it when I really wouldn't. My mistake for being honest.
I've had one survey here at FC revoked to me. It was for a little under $2. I have no idea why it was revoked as I didn't email FC and ask. I had one survey worth $1.80 at another site revoked to me a year or so ago. The email that site sent me about the revoked survey was so poorly worded it was actually offensive. I did email them about it and demanded not only an apology for the wording of the email but a reason why the survey was revoked. I was told my answers on the survey didn't meet the survey providers expected outcome. Really? I couldn't help but find that answer amusing due to the usage of the phrase "expected outcome". It wasn't "guidelines" or "didn't adhere to the instructions". "Expected outcome" told me that the provider already had in mind the answers they wanted and I failed because my opinion didn't agree with theirs. After a couple more emails, I got both my apology and credit for my survey back.
It's awfully easy for a survey provider to not pay out. They can disqualify you halfway through the survey, let you finish it completely then disqualify you when you click the final "submit" button or they can say your answers "didn't meet their expectations" and they don't need to elaborate more.
I actually emailed a long time ago and received a response that said they could not tell me the reason basically because then I could change that and not be revoked in the future.
And what's the logic behind this? If the point of these surveys is to genuinely collect information to improve products and services wouldn't it be in the survey providers best interest for the responders to know their mistakes and learn from them so they can better understand the survey process to provide the survey providers with relevant answers they need for their research? Sure, some people could use that info to "work the system" but that's not true of everyone. I think it's safe to say if someone has dozens of surveys revoked then there's something amiss. One survey revoked, I don't think they are a serial survey cheater. ;)
-
lol. stbernard. A serial survey cheater. That's funny. Over the past few years I have had several. The first one is the only one I emailed and asked about. I had never seen that on any other sites.
Here is the thing- companies want to be able to say "In a survey 97% of the people said they would buy OUR product". But the company can manipulate the survey to get the answers and the outcome they want. I have also noticed when doing a survey I have been kicked out more than half way thru because I kept saying I would not purchase a product. They don't want honest answers they want to be told what they want to hear.
I done a survey yesterday that said it would take 10 minutes to complete but it took more like an hour and 15 minutes. When I clicked the final submit button I got a message saying the survey was closed. I don't think that is fair. And more and more people are having that happen. Eventually no one will do the surveys and they will have to pay more to get people to waste their time trying to complete them.
-
They come in spurts, but the frustrating thing when they do occur is that I cannot fight back on the revoked credit. The surveys in particluar I have nothing to go by as often this happened a while ago and I don't keep track of what I surveys I have done or not.

I don't know how you can keep track. You don't have enough info to remember which survey it was. I don't have time to write down the names and topics and dates and all that jazz. And it doesn't matter because they have a right to reject any survey they want to. You are correct in it is not fair. And it does come in spurts. I had not had it happen in a long time then had at least 2 right together. Supposedly they can reject your answers if you lie. HOW can they know if I lie? Really? It is MY opinion. How can they know if I lie about MY opinion on a product.
-
I knock on wood haven't had that problem YET anyways
-
Yup, I got the revoked payments too, like almost 4$ , i wonder why do they even confirm at the very beginning.
-
have had several revoked payments. and it always seems to be the ones that are over a dollar. oh well not much you can do about it so I just move on to the next servey to make up for it
-
Eh it happens to me every month usually any animal surveys get revoked no matter what and maybe one or two federated surveys the rest don't
-
This has happened to me several times. If I take the time to do the survey, I should be given some type of compensation. It takes time to do the surveys.
-
Ive had this happen and it is extremely fustrating! !

>:( >:( >:(
yes i understand completely how you feel. FOR some strange and unfair reason i am not allowed to l utilize the PAID TO CALL feature anymore EVER, any time i try and click on it i get a 8ogus response of THAT i am not really interested in the paid to call features / offers so i cannot do them anymore. I THOUGHT that when i spent my time on this 8efore i was 8anned from it, that it was MY CHOICE if or not to actually pay for the offer they had. I DIDNT KNOW JUST cuz i didnt actually pay for and opt in every single call that i would 8e 8anned from this feature
-
It happened to me several times as well. It is very frustrating because you spent to much time to earned it.
-
I find something odd about the surveys that get revoked. I have never once had one of the daily surveys revoke a payment. It has always been the fusion cash ones when it does happen. I just keep my fingers crossed every month and hope for the best.

I was just wondering if it was better your last cash out or if your still getting revoked payments?
-
sometimes those surveys can give you a hard way to go, i know we've all been there
-
Happens to me every once in a while .. It is what It is .. Nothing we can do about it.
-
I am not aware of any for me. But now you have me wondering so I am going to go back and look!
-
What I find puzzling is that Fusion is the ONLY site where I have ever had a survey revoked!!! Why is that? I've completed dozens of surveys on various sites.
-
Same here. I'm also getting more and more FC surveys revoked. I took my time and provided honest answers. You are not the only one. It's happening to me as well.

I have not got one since I posted this rant. lol. I didn't cash out this past month. I was a little short because I was mad about the revoked payments and didn't even bother with surveys which is where I make most of my money.
-
I have noticed lately that about once a week a survey that I have taken my time to complete has been revoked. It says that they didn't like the answers and think you might have completed it too fast. They might not like my answers, but I answer the surveys the best I know how and as far as how fast I take the survey, maybe I read faster than they do. It takes time to complete surveys and I don't want to waste my time completing them, just to not get credited for my answers.
-
are Wright about that .I some time I will spend ten or mines to be told I don't qofile for there thing.
-

You will know. They send you an email.
-

You know, now that you mention it - you are correct. I have never had it happen on another site. Not that I recall anyway. Maybe other sites have a rule with the ones doing the surveys that if our people complete the survey you have to pay them. You can't just reject their answers.
And by saying you can reject a person's answers and not pay them it tells me they can and do manipulate the surveys to get the answers they want. They get the outcome they want.

I did not complete it to fast. I read the questions and answer them honestly. Maybe I can read and comprehend more quickly than they expect. lol. Usually it takes me longer to do the survey, a lot longer, than they say it will take.
-
no cant say i have,,,,,,,,,,,
-
I WAS WRONG! I just tried 3 surveys and 2 I got kicked out of over half way thru and the last one I completely finished and when I done the final submit it says unfortunately you do not qualify to do this survey. THAT IS NOT FAIR!
-
I wonder what criteria they use to revoke payment. I haven't had any refused yet :)
