I'm having the same problems too. I successfully completed a couple of surveys and I never got credit. All I ever got was DQ bonuses.

I got a few DQ bonuses today as well. Which is good. But what I'm wondering is what, if anything, is being done to relieve the situation?

On one hand, sure, it's great most of the surveys are crediting eventually and I'm sure it's a chore for staff. But at the same time, they are still not the surveys that are advertised and offered, still too often not paying what they're purported to pay in the invitations/links and they are still not being credited in the time frame the site states they will be credited.

I understand why sites like FC can be sticklers for their users adhering strictly to the TOS, but in this case they are the ones not doing what they represent and there has been no information from Admin as to why users who are spending their time making the site money cannot reasonably rely on their representations of content, timeliness and payment. This is bare bones basic stuff, what's going on? If the vendor changed the offer and this is the way it will be from now on, fine. Can we at least be told that and have the links/invitations/policies changed to reflect that at minimum? Or are we expected to continue to click and guess and hope for the best?

I've been around the GPT scene a while and have seen a LOT of formerly legitimate sites go downhill or turn scam fast so maybe it's cynicism on my part, but I'm getting a little nervous about what I see happening here. Can we get some feedback on what is taking place and what to expect moving forward please?

I know we are not supposed to complain on here, I just wish they would fix this issue, it just happened to me again. I don't think anyone knows how frustrating it is to spend all this time and not know if you are going to get paid when you actually do get accepted and complete them, it is worse than getting thrown out of them.

Yeah, and the thing that's a red flag for me is the lack of communication in the face of the widespread and ongoing nature of the problems, and the fact that even surveys that are completed and being credited are not being credited the amounts for which they were offered. It would be nice to have some idea what's going on.

I just went to the FC Surveys page, tried one survey of three listed, disqualified, and got the DQ bonus okay.  However, after it grayed out, none of the other surveys showed up to even attempt.  I know that surveys can meet their quotas at any minute, but seems odd that all three closed at once.
