I am not sure if that's the whole reason why a person is disqualified. I have been disqualifed so many times that I do not bother with the survey's anymore.

I figure the reason I never qualify is demographics. 50yr old white guys aren't in demand. I always figured young moms were the most sought after.

After you have done a few of the surveys that disqualify you after you have provided a lot of information, you catch on which ones are likely to do that and you can exit those immediately. Now and then you WILL quality for a survey. I have found that if I respond QUICKLY to a FusionCash survey invitation through my e-mail, I am much more likely to qualify.  ;D

Agreed....tried many times...sometimes half way through and then I don't qualify...very frustrating.  So I don't really do surveys any more.

I agree with pretty much what everyone has said already.  If you respond quickly, you are more likely to qualify.  I've done a few where I get to gender or age and get kicked out so it isn't just you.  A lot of it is persistence cause eventually you will qualify, it just depends if you are willing to be rejected all those times before.

Well, they don't like 45 year old white women either.

The surveys look for VERY specific demographics, so if you don't fit into them or too many people with the same race/age range/location as you have already taken it, you don't qualify. I myself don't qualify for probably 90% of all surveys I try, so I very rarely try them.

I make an exception and try surveys if I'm online and JUST got the e-mail telling me about the survey, because that means it's brand new and there's probably still openings for every demographic. If it's more than a couple hours old, I don't bother because I fit into a popular demographic.

They seem to be hit or miss.  Qualified for a handful for about a week but now can't get any.

The other thing to keep in mind is if you are in a "popular" demographic, you might be disqualified due to the quota for that demographic being filled quickly.  Sometimes it's just luck - if you get to the survey early, you have a better chance of qualifying.  I regularly try surveys so I can sometimes tell if it's a quota thing when I see the same qualifier questions show up on other survey sites - that's when I know it's a survey trying to fill harder to find quotas, so I just quickly answer the qualifier questions to bounce to the next survey which may be a newer one.

I have successfully taken a lot of surveys, but every now and then on this site I will get about half way through a survey and get disqualified. I don't mind being disqualified when filling out demographic information, but doing a lot of the survey and getting disqualified really sucks.
