Disqualified After 40 Minutes!
« on: February 08, 2015, 04:06:16 pm »
I know this has happened to all of us at one time or another; we attempt a survey, we take our time,
we give our honest opinions, sometimes we qualify, and sometimes we do not, but we keep trying these surveys nonetheless! I do not think it is fair, however, to do a complete survey for forty minutes and then get to the very end to then be disqualified!!!  >:(   I spent forty minutes of my precious time for $0.01. What am I, crazy?! I must be, because I will try again tomorrow!

I just took that survey and it didn't take me anywhere near 40 minutes. Maybe it was a different one with the same name


It sucks but it happens. I know I took one that took over a hour that involved watching multiple videos then was disqualified at the end with the classification questions.I think its was like a $4 survey. I'm still mad months later

The survey was on craft projects you do, and what materials you buy. It said it was a thirty-seven minute survey ahead of time. I guess they warned me!!

The same thing happened to me Friday. Long survey and at the end I was DQ. I am so glad this does not happen often. :(

I did take that one but maybe it took me a shorter amount of times because I don't do as many crafts or use as many different materials

Wow, you have my empathy.  It has happened to me, not on Fusion Cash, but other sites.  Although I have to say, 40 minutes is crazy.   That would have my blood boiling to the point I would have to walk away from the computer for awhile, even though I would feel like I needed to make up some of that time on another task.   Wish there were some way these sites could help us out in this kind of case.  Anyway, maybe Karma will work for you and you'll get a really great survey that doesn't take long and pays well.   Here's hoping.

I would never had the patience to sit and answer questions
for 40 minutes.

If I have the chance to do a survey (I usually do not qualify)
I would not pass 15 minutes of sitting time for one survey.

Just my opinion.

Some Survey are real Survey time, that just use people to do them, and then not pay. Disgusting.

Aww, that sucks! Thats too much time into a survey to not get paid. It's happened to me to before but the survey wasn't that long.

Been there, done that, also didn't get the credit.  I don't mind being disqualified but within five minutes of starting would be oh, so very nice.  Forty minutes?!?! Yikes, I do hate when that happens.  You do have my sincerest sympathy. 

I hope it's a much better experience for you next time.   :)

You find surveys that take less than 15 minutes? I find them on occasion but most I take are 20-25  minutes

That happened to me too. But apparently we have no recourse. I'm just happy it doesn't occur that often.

i usually never do that long of a survey but i do go up to 30 min long, and i have the same thing happen to me all the time..... you finish 3 quarters of a survey, and then the next question pops up but something about the answers or the click button makes it impossible to move forward, so i just have to give up. it sucks!
