Title: Getting Scammed
Post by: JaniceSW on September 11, 2017, 02:00:03 pm
Why is it that about 1 out of every 5 or 6 surveys I COMPLETE do not credit?  I know I have complained about this several times before, but why isn't it fixed by somebody?  Is it Fusion, the survey companies, or a combination?  Actually, I don't care.  Just fix it and quit being fraudulent!

When taking a survey, be certain to take your time. Read every question carefully.

No human is on the other end. It is a computer and it is programmed. If the computer detects that you are going too fast or your answers are fraudulent, according to the computer, your survey will be kicked out and there will be no record of your taking a survey. 

You  may have made an honest mistake when responding. You may be going too fast according to the computer but you still get kicked out.

I have the same problem as yourself. There is not much that you can do about it. Be glad for the surveys that do credit.

Janice trust me it's all these stupid survey sites, you may get lucky and make like 200 a month but that's it. This site is the worst of the worst. Google surveys and find different ones, you are wasting your time on this one. They actually have a guy on you tube who has to be a plant that swears by this site, who is this joker kidding, it took me 10 minutes to figure out that this site is a joke.

Hi Janice, I'm pretty new to this survey site but I've been to other sites in the past, so I have (some) experience with this stuff. If you never get qualified, its probably the survey sites , because some of those get really glitchy sometimes since some surveys are meant for mobile and some for computer, but they combine both. So I guess my best advice I can give to you is to not touch any tabs (dont close any or you might not get the "Click continue to recieve reward" button from FC), and have a good connection  ;D

I am going to disagree with you. I have been with Fusion Cash for years and it is a really good site. I have had problems with some surveys on this site but equally on other sites.  I am on several other sites and there are problems with surveys on every one of them.

Bostonphil, your explanation is insightful because it gets to the heart of the online survey business.  And that is Big Business!  These survey companies are all computerized.  It is a highly digitized system that analyzes large amounts of data.  When taking a survey you are communicating with a programmed machine.  It is what it is in these modern times.

Janice, I've experienced the same feelings, too.  Sometimes they do credit later for reasons we may never know.  Today I got a delayed credit from LiveSample.  I'm glad they tagged it as 'delayed' as a courtesy because one wouldn't know otherwise.  However, I don't believe the survey companies are equal to this task so sometimes it's hard to swallow the non-crediting ones.

Wow! I totally disagree with you also english0011, FC is an absolutely wonderful site, and there's no way you even gave it a chance. Just check out all the members with earnings banners and explain that away. I, too have been a member of many other sites, still am of a few, but FC is my main one because it has proven itself time after time. Hopefully you'll stick around long enough to find that out and then maybe you'll apologize for being so negative, rude and WRONG!! Good luck!

Janice, in my humble opinion, I am thrilled to have 5 out of 6 actually credit me. Now if we were paying money to earn money here, then I'd totally agree with you, but this is free money, how can you not be satisfied with whatever you make? I mean, I'm not happy when I spend a ton of time on something that doesn't credit me, but I would never call it fraudulent.

I think is quite a bit of difference between the different survey providers and the additional middlemen.  I have tried to take note of ones the seem to give me an issue and try to avoid those.  When I find myself routed there I just quit instead of wasting my time.  I think the only way to get treated better by these is to not participate till they are a bit more fair and upfront,  if some can do it they all can,  they are cheating us and Fusion Cash.

Why is there always a newbie on here saying it is a scam site? Is this how they treat everything they try out if it's not super, super easy?  :dontknow: Imagine finding out this is a scam site in 10 minutes. That is absolutely amazing.

Fly and be free, li'l newbie. Make thousands of dollars on other sites. I wish you well.

I have done well on surveys in emails from FC etc.

However, took one this morning, on commercials, completed it, it thanked me, and then said I was denied.

20 min down the tube. I am no happy with that, but in the minutes spent here irritated, I believe that happened to me once before.....same survey! I remember it from way back.

It is on commercials, you rate it as it goes, with a button to make a line go up or down. Then they ask questions, and you go on to next commercial.

This one is not worth it, don't waste your time with it.

Sometimes there is a delay in payment, could be an hour or could be a few days. Maybe even a month. If you are honest and answered truthfully, more than likely you will be compensated. Don't give up!!

Hmm.. that seems a bit odd, because I've done the same survey you're describing and I was credited for it with no problem! ALTHOUGH I did see it pop again a few days ago and it disqualified me after a few questions, so perhaps it may be because we've already taken it but it appears on our survey tab anyway?

I would consider 1 out of 5 surveys not crediting a blessing.

english0011:

If you do not like this site, why even bother coming on here to trash it? This site is a great site. It is not a perfect site, but nothing ever is.

The problem is people like you, who are gullible enough to believe those on youtube who sell you the Brooklyn Bridge. How clueless are you?

You still have to actually work to make any money, and this is not a replacement for a full-time job.

You make erroneous assumptions that the site is a scam based on ten minutes? Seriously?

Why don't you just admit that the problem is that you are lazy? You want to make hundreds of dollars, but you don't actually want to work.

Why don't you either a. actually do some work here, and see if you can cash out BEFORE making ridiculously stupid statements, or b. go and get a real-life job.

I'm not as patient and nice as bostonphil, so I have no problem telling you take your whiny butt elsewhere.

The surveys that you complete may have credited late after you sent in a complaint, I always make sure I check the money that is credited for.

I go through dry periods where I don't get any surveys the I do for a few days.So,this is worth it

Basically, I appreciate all your insights and opinions.  I've been on these sites for almost 3 years so I have experience and familiarity with more than 1 or 2 sites.  The thing is that increasingly I am either completely through a survey or almost to the end and about 1 out of 5 doesn't credit.  For instance, I got back on this thread just now because I was almost at the end of a rather long, detailed one about healthcare and don't you know that it decided not to bother crediting me.  But they sure got all the answers because the survey was about 95% complete.  It is not just simply unfair and oh, well, it's just how t goes.  It is simply FRAUDULENT!  It is taking advantage.  It is not valuing someone's time or opinions which you are asking for.  How wrong!  As soon as I possibly can, I am going to quit using these sites.  Unsure when that will be...

By the way, it is a rarity that I get one of those delayed credits.  That happens about once every 6 months for me!

LOL 200 a month? That's a dream for some people like batting your head against a brick wall. Unless english0011 works every site 24/7, there's no way!

I qualify for maybe 2 to 4 surveys A MONTH here and on other sites, sometimes it's more than a month to qualify for even one survey. It all depends on your background, age, gender, insurance, vehicle, travel, etc.

Why does english0011 feel the sites are scams if she/he is working them. It's beyond me that that person would say such a thing or waste time doing scams. Doesn't make sense to me. >:(

This site is very very good site since I have had back to back cash outs of 120 and 130 dollars and this month I have 51 dollars earned so far.  I should reach around 60 dollars.  Many people are too lazy and give up on things on this site.  Surveys are not the only thing on here that you can earn money.

Well, it is the evening of 10/23/17 and I have done well.  But 3 surveys just tonight let me finish and then said I was disqualified while the 3rd was about three-quarters complete and didn't even give me a cent!  I just get tire of this bulls**t!

I started one of those healthcare surveys and quit on my own because it was so dang long, boring and repetitive. I am almost happier to get a cent or 2 by being DQed than to finish a long one for not near enough cents. I just don't have the time to do long ones. :)
