Would be okay to be DQ'd from a survey if my qualifications didn't match but I think they jumped the gun a bit. I was disqualified for my responses....huh???? What responses? The survey didn't even start. It was loading and when it did, I got the "Sorry, Disqualified" screen for my responses.

At least they could have asked me for some questions before jumping to conclusions. It was a 4 minute health study.

Sometimes the quota fills before you start to take the survey. And sometimes the different survey sites remember the information about your demographics that you have entered in previous surveys.

I typically enjoy the quick disqualifications because at least I didn't waste my time for only a penny. Sometimes it is nice to quickly get a penny.

This happens to me a lot.  I guess they know my demo's and just don't want me.   Like a previous member said, I would rather DQ from the start, rather than answer a bunch of questions.

I love it when you get disqualified after you give your age!

Yes, I agree happens to me too.

Actually that is ideal,  they should be able to "remember" us and decide much quicker than they do if we are "qualified".

I'd rather get DQ'd super early and get my penny and move on. It's such a pain to answer 20-30 questions, and THEN get DQ'd.

I agree about the DQ times, it's much better to get your DQ sooner rather than later , and I think that is why the sites save the information , to try and avoid having a survey taker waste their time , it could be a reason anyway , although some sites, I think , shouldn't be allowed to offer surveys because they route through about a dozen before deciding there is no way to qualify lol.

I had one today! Clicked on start and next thing I know I'm getting a penny lol. I agree, those are way better than the ones that drag that DQ out!

That has happened to me multiple times. The only thing I can do is to try a different survey.

I got that lots of times. There are at times that the survey will take me to the disqualification page instead of taking me to the actual survey.

Sometimes, they read your profile and can tell you do not qualify.

Sometimes it's like a catch 22 on Tap Research , because sometimes they will DQ you right away for 1 or 2 points and other times you will go quite a while only to discover you only get $.01 or $.02 when , according to their own rules, you should be getting quite a bit more than that.

some do keep your info and compare it to what is needed for the survey and will DQ you if it is not a match... I much prefer this than answering questions and thinking I can do the survey only to have it DQ then

I get that quite often. I guess 35 is either too old or too young for most surveys?  ???
