Title: Do you bother at all?
Post by: breazybu on December 07, 2017, 05:02:10 pm
I feel like the surveys take twice as much time as they say they do. So I never do a survey that's below 1.00$. Do ya'll even bother to do the smaller surveys? I feel like it's too much time for too little money.

I try to do the shorter surveys no matter what they pay.  Often the surveys are longer than reported but other times, the surveys are real short. I prefer short ones even if they pay less. I try to do as many surveys as possible but so often, they do not credit or there is a glitch.

I do the shorter surveys. But I try to take the longer ones to because you never know

I like the short ones and usually get DQ'd in a few seconds, so I can grab the penny and move on. I can't think of the last time I was unable to qualify for the next days PTC and that gives me enough to pay my subscription to another site that earns me passive income.

I actually prefer the smaller surveys because I tend to qualify for them much easier than most of the higher end ones. 

There are many times where I do higher paying surveys and am successful in completing them.  However, there are more times when the smaller ones consistently credit for me. 

I am quite happy with the growth of my account balance.

I rarely try for surveys, but when I do, it's always the short ones. And yes, they usually run longer than advertised when I do qualify.

I take a variety of surveys. You never know which ones you will get credit for.

I attempt them all no matter how long they are.  Every penny counts and adds up quickly.  So do not give up and try them.

I often try  the smaller  surveys even though I don't kike them. In fact most of the surveys I am disqualified for but will try anyway.. I usually qui after 3 try's :rainbow: :peace

I often do shorter surveys. Sometimes, they run longer; sometimes, they don't. These times are not etched in stone; they are approximate times.

I like short surveys; they are easier to qualify for, and you get your DQ bonus quicker. Those bonuses add up. For example, December 8th, I made 57 cents just in DQ bonuses. Altogether, I made $2.49.

Finally, if they stiff you, you have spent a lot less time, and it stings a lot less. I also find that although longer surveys are great payoffs, they are usually the ones that stiff you.

But I try to do as many surveys as I can. It truly does pay.

I do try the shorter ones when I have time. I kind of avoid the longer surveys.

I don't likie doping the smaller surveys. They used to all pay
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: dwiley11 on December 10, 2017, 08:45:39 am
only once in a while will you get exactly what it says, but the small ones pay more often.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: seesawing on December 10, 2017, 05:29:16 pm
The smaller paying surveys are more likely to pay something {be it 5¢ or DQ1¢}; yes, there are some duds in there (server unavailable, 404 Error, etc.).  The higher paying surveys shouldn't be ignored (no matter the est. time) because you'll still usually get the penny.  Many of those higher paying surveys target health conditions, but not all.  Don't second-guess your demographics either, just go for it.

I need to amend what I just wrote because right now these 10¢ and 15¢ surveys in my list are freezing up after clicking.  They don't load at all {Review Robin surveys}.  No action in the progress bar.  No problems earlier today with Say So or Peanut Labs surveys.  But I've experienced three in a row and going for about five more.  Grrrr  I will do a PC clearing cookies and cache to do what I can on my end.

Try and take the shorter surveys. The shorter surveys may take you a shorter amount of time to do. And you don't get a lot of cents for them but they still do add up and help you make the $25 in a long run
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: ladavia89 on December 11, 2017, 06:59:57 am
I find that lower paying surveys tend to be looking for less specific demographics so you're more likely to qualify. I wouldn't be able to cashout every month if I didn't do the ones under $1.

This isn't meant to be a replacement for a job so it's not going to be a lot of money. You can decide how much you think your time is worth but you need to have realistic expectations

I don't like mdoing the cheap surveys. As for those videos 15 minutes for a penny I wont do them

I always click on the higher ones even if I think I won't qualify, you never know. A lot of them I get DQ'd but every once in a while I get 5$.

I do them all and hope for the best.  I agree that even the penny counts

What oldbuddy said.  Quick pennies are great!

I mostly go for the surveys that are shorter.  I have come across 3 minute surveys that actually were 3 minute surveys and paid 50 cents.  I love those.  Every now and then I've even gotten a 1 minute survey that really was just a couple of questions and paid 50 cents or more.  Love those.  What I don't like, are the surveys that say 3 min or 5 min and then, after the initial questions, it says there's a survey for 25 min do you want to take it.  It doesn't say how much it pays either.  Often, when I click on a 5 min survey it's because I have time for a 5 min one but not a half hour one right then.

I like the shorter ones the most, there are some ones that take at 20 minutes or so to do, but if they go longer than that, it does tend to become a nuisance.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: bleyd on December 12, 2017, 12:29:19 pm
Sometimes I do...but only if I've done everything else..like PTC, daily email, videos and if I have time.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: tweety0412 on December 12, 2017, 12:31:38 pm
I do any surveys. Even if you get DQ for 1c it still adds up.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: rwhite17 on December 12, 2017, 12:49:24 pm
I try a variety of them but do not limit myself to just high paying ones as even smaller ones add up and you never know which ones will be long and which ones short
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: squirrelgirl44 on December 13, 2017, 10:24:50 am
I don't attempt surveys that say they take longer than 20 minutes. Even a 20 minute one better pay over 75c to make it worth my while. Qualified and completed three today (so far)
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: surveygrabber on December 14, 2017, 10:47:20 pm
I like the shorter surveys. The only time I like to do longer surveys if it pays more.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: mardukblood2009 on December 15, 2017, 04:17:12 am
I never get survey's over a dollar anymore so I have to take what is given to me. I have hardly ever ready got any over a dollar since I have been on here. :moneymouth:

Post by: appy9104 on December 17, 2017, 06:51:08 am
I haven't had much luck in the survey actually being anything that I clicked on: subject, time or payout except the Tapreseardch.  How do you find these short survey?
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: patti4me on December 17, 2017, 03:41:24 pm
I go thru cycles on the surveys.  Sometimes I'll try any of them regardless of the amount and sometimes I don't mess with any of the lower ones.  I'm in a cycle for the last couple of weeks where I can't seem to qualify and complete a survey at all.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: dwggs on December 18, 2017, 04:20:07 am
I don't always have time to do the surveys but when I do I enjoy them.  I like feeling like my opinions matter to the manufacturers of the products that we as consumers buy.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: pstovall on December 22, 2017, 12:36:35 pm
I pick out the shorter surveys first!  I don't know how I'd get my $.05 qualifying requirement some days if it weren't for those shorter surveys.  I don't always have a huge amount of time to spend on surveys.  I agree that most of them take longer for me than stated, so I need to take advantage of the lower paying, shorter versions in order to meet my requirement.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: candyterrius on December 25, 2017, 06:50:05 pm
I do all the surveys available despite what they pay. I never know I might qualify for one of them. If I become picky on only concentrating on surveys offering above a dollar, I’ll never cash out. One should never underestimate every disqualification is worth a penny and they add up pretty quickly.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: Sawman214 on December 29, 2017, 07:09:12 am
I try to do the shortest ones first and if those didn't qualify I try the bigger ones.  But If it says 20 minutes and I get there and it says 40 minutes I feel duped so I don't do it.  But everything on here is trial and error.  So keep your head up.

The best survey or the ideal time must be no more than 10 minutes.

I no longer bother with the surveys.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?

I just go down the list until one accepts me...no point in being picky when like 95% will just simply reject me.

Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: jwkelly on January 01, 2018, 03:43:19 pm
Honestly, there are surveys that I just want to be dq'd from either because of time,low pay outs or just to round off my cashout. I hate the ones that require lots of typing too (how do you feel about this and that....?)
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: heidi0902 on January 01, 2018, 04:05:23 pm

They surveys often take a lot of time to complete, but there are definitely legit surveys on the site. It's worth all the effort I put into it, in my opinion.
Title: Re: Do you bother at all?
Post by: makeblessed on January 02, 2018, 04:58:17 pm
Yes, because they all all up and sometimes I seem to qualify for those more; so it's all good.

Sometimes, the only surveys that I do are those that are less than 10 minutes. I feel like those are easier and increase my chances of earning some money. I rarely attempt those that are greater than 10 minutes.
