Title: Rip Off
Post by: countrygirl12 on May 14, 2015, 12:04:33 pm
Just need to blow off some steam.  I just completed TWO surveys and then at the end it says oh sorry you don't match the desired profile.  And I don't get paid.  Guess I made too much money last month!  Someone else said on another thread they were doing things and not getting credit today and they were done with this site for a while.  I think I am done with the surveys for a while.  Why bother doing them if they get my opinions and then don't pay me as promised!   :confused1:

It is easy to say you just let it go, but when you spend time completing surveys and expect to be credited, it is a little more than annoying.

I agree. I hate when you have (for example) a 15 minute survey and your 12 minutes into it and you get disqualified. What is up with that?   :bad: >:( It drives crazy.

it is a pain in the A$$ !!!!!!  other day I spent 20 minutes doing a survey and then was told i didn't fit.  So rude.  You would have thought they would have realized that in the first few minutes :(

I just don't do the surveys because they rarely work out for me but any time I have trouble with something crediting like radio or videos I just move on because I have been doing various paid "to" sites for about fifteen years now and I still believe FC is one of the absolute best so ............... I just keep moving on looking forward to that next cash out.   :present:

I know how you feel that's why I don't do many surveys.

I know. I know. I spent 20 minutes on a 25-minute survey the other day for $4.25.  Then I got disqualified.  I was so ticked off, but there really is nothing you can do...which makes it even more frustrating.  My sympathies.

I actually find it more annoying to have credit for a survey you did a month ago get revoked. I do think it's crappy when you essentially give all the responses and then don't qualify. Ask the qualifying questions first!

It's happened to me before...I stopped doing very many surveys a long time ago because of the waste of time.  Alot of surveys are so repetitive & boring, and many aren't REALLY surveys at all.  It would be better if they took half that money and got ANY of the other advertising on the ptc sites.  Everyone would LOVE to have more paid videos, ptc ads, tasks and legit offers INSTEAD of those surveys that aggravate most everyone.

I usually don't qualify for surveys so I only do the ones that give me consolation credit for trying.  Larely I noticed they're getting around that by telling me i don't qualify but they have another survey for me.  ???  I don't want another survey of unknown time and credit, I want my penny.  Then I can choose another, if I want to.  These don't usually get very far before they say I'm disqualified though.

If you're not getting credit for complete surveys try reporting them.

lol.  Yeah, I have noticed that a lot of times the second survey never credits.  The two I done I completed everything and was down to the last submit and it was like oh sorry you don't qualify.  I was SO mad.  **Insert steaming smiley here**  :)

And I have reported them before but was told they have criteria they want and if you don't meet that and they disqualify you (and it is their choice) FC doesn't get paid and they can't pay us.

It is not so bad to start filling out a survey and after a few questions they say you don't qualify.  But to work on a survey for 10 to 15 minutes and they tell you they you don't qualify is a waste of my time and I could have been doing something else.

Don't be done with it. You may not qualify for one, but the next you may.  Stay positive...it's happened to me as well.

Not qualifying is one thing.  Totally completing a survey and spending over 30 minutes on it and doing the final submit and then it saying oh you don't qualify is what makes me so mad.

Only reason why I do not do the surveys - I am never qualified.

Post by: loulizlee on May 19, 2015, 09:52:01 pm
I have come to the conclusion that they are not really surveys, anyone, like someone said.  Same with most of the other survey sites I am on.   It is almost amusing the way they are billed as "your thoughts really count."   I, too, stopped doing surveys some time back.  They almost always disqualify me.

ABeen there done that, and I agree it is very annoying but I also agree that it is more annoying when you get credit and weeks later they revoked, just happened to me for $1.20 survey and got revoked, I know exactly why it got revoked I was king of expecting it.  I did a survey and they wanted me to try something but when they sent the food I was on vacation and I never saw the email to go along with the food, so there it went.  Even though I was expecting it I am still pissed about it.

Ouch! I've had that happened to me before...sorry you had to go through that, too! :(

Post by: dancer139 on May 20, 2015, 08:45:27 am
that has happened to me.  more then one time.  i spent a half hour doing on for 75 cents and at the end it said they had their quota and mine didn't count, ugh.  plus in the last 2 weeks i have had 2 surveys revoked totaling  $2.00   talk abut being upset. 

wish I knew what the problem was.  Thats my vacation money going down the drain :(

I really hate when that happens, that's why  I have quit doing them things.  Seems like every one of them never works and its a total waste of time.

I have not done a survey on here in awhile. I really do not like when you finish and then nothing credited.

That happens. Only you can decide if they're worth attempting or not. If they become too frustrating, try something else.
Title: Re: Rip Off
Post by: bigfoot951 on May 20, 2015, 06:06:29 pm
Either you haven't been doing surveys very long or this has happened to you before.  That just seems to be part of it from what I have seen.

I'm sorry to hear. I think it's happened to the majority of us who do a portion of our earnings here through surveys (either that or a reversal of our credit later). If it's too hard to take, it's best to not continue if you cannot take the stress as it could potentially happen at any time. Sometimes I do reconsider if it's worth the stress too.

I think everyone who attempts the surveys have gone through that a time or two.  Just keep clicking away.  You'll get a good pay off on one eventually.

The only way to make good money is to do surveys.  The emails 2 pennies, radio thing a penny or two every 30 minutes, videos a couple of pennies....  To me that is not good money.  Just my opinion.

I do like this site better than any other I have been a part of.

Post by: bowrunner on May 21, 2015, 04:00:32 pm
I nearly always get paid for the surveys I qualify for and I nearly always get the 1 cent when I don't qualify.  I do get aggravated when I work for 10 or 15 minutes on a survey only to be disqualified.  That is uncalled for.

Live and learn, you answered your own question, Why do them?  I rarely do surveys anymore for that reason, they are a joke, but at least on here you get a cent for trying.  Like I said before tasks are better 8)

Post by: lmrbean on May 24, 2015, 04:18:51 am
I have stopped doing surveys for that very reason. I never seem to qualify!
