So today I completed a MyThoughCounts survey and when I go to the end it said "Now just a few more questions for classification purposes" and I click next and boom - I get sent right to the congrats page, and yes I did get credit.. This same thing occured the last few times I completed a survey from them.

Im just wondering if it is now like this for anyone else? I like it because those questions at the end are always questions you already answered at the beggining anyways.. I guess MyThoughtCounts is sending them that info for you or something?

Anyways, anyone who has completed a survey from them recently, has it been like this for you or did you still have to do those last questions?

The classification questions are still there for me when I nearing the end of a My ThoughtCountsSurvey that is how I know that I have almost completed it. You are lucky that lately you haven't had to provide your demographics twice, that sure would be nice.

I haven't done surveys in awhile but when I did they were still there for me too. I agree though it would be great if I didn't have to answer those at the very beginning and then again at the end. That's one reason I don't like doing surveys too repetitive. :wave:

Well I like that I dont have to fill it in a second time at the end but now im getting a little worried if its just me..

Because also, I did 2 new offers, the Victorias Secret one, and the American Family Sweeps.. and on both of those when I clicked on them it had all my info already typed into the spaces for me.. my name, address, email, ect.. THAT worries me.. its never done that before, now all the sudden it does it automaticly? so the Mythoughtcounts surveys and new offers too?! I mean it saves some time but its a little discomforting that its doing it by itself... and I use a seperate email address for offers (so my main email doesnt get spamed) but that not the one its entering..

administrator can you tell me if this is normal or supost to be happening or is something wrong?

The MyThoughtCounts Survey has done that to me a couple of times recently but it varies. I have been credited to my FC account and I DO take my time with all surveys and not rush through. As well as being honest. I would not worry as long as you spent sufficient time or what they estimate it will take you to complete the survey.

ok so its not just me.. but I wasnt talking about anything like rushing through.. I took my time and was honest and did get credit on FC.. it just seemed weird that it would say something like "Now just a few more questions for classification purposes" then when I hit next it was over and never asked those questions (but again, I DID recieve credit)

All the surveys that I have done for MyThoughtCounts, I have never been denied credit just before I was paid. Soo..it was just the way the survey was made.

When some of the offers are already pre-filled in for me it did make me nervous at first, but them I figured FC has the same info on file as does my local phone book. I haven't had any problems as long as no credit card info is entered and I use a separate email address.

Some offers (like American Family Sweeps) can be pre-filled with some of your basic data.  This is done for your convenience.  The advertiser does not store or use your info unless you actually submit the form.

We do not pre-fill the Victoria's Secret offer, so if your data was there it was likely stored in a cookie from a different giveaway you filled out, which was owned by the same company.  They have a lot of different giveaways (several can be found around FC), and they're also on other sites a lot, so there's a good chance you submitted one at some point in the past.  There's no way to just conjure that info out of nowhere.
