Stuck in the loop
« on: July 19, 2018, 12:12:52 pm »
Sometimes when I do TapResearch I get stuck in the Global Test Market loop (where they keep going from survey to survey).  But I hate to give up until I at least get a few cents.  Today that happened and I tried about 5 surveys  then they gave me 14 cents.   :highfive: :party: :highfive:

Congratulations for sticking with it!  I despise the Global Test Market loop!  You come out of it empty-handed more often than not.  That was a nice "pot o' gold" you got this time. :rainbow:

Yeah that happens to me too but I never get any cents for not qualifying. I usually give up after maybe 2 times.

It is not just Global Test Market that engages in the loop. Other survey sites also do. When I realize I am in the loop, I give up after a couple of attempts.

I am glad that you got some pennies out of it.  I usually waste a lot of time and get no reward.

Thanks for the info, I usually drop out after the first round, may have to try to keep going.

Ugh, there have been times I got stuck in a loop for 15 minutes and then didn't even get the penny! I give up on those now.

Generally that has been my experience, so once I see I am being passed around a couple of times I gave up because I know even if I did get a survey I would never see credit,  seems like it just cannot follow the trail back

Yes, those surveys can be tedious but sometimes you can get a nice little credit for completing them.

I sometimes get that as well or an i-say loop

I get the loop too and sometimes I get the bonus and sometimes I don't.... I usually stick around for 3-4 tries then drop out if I don't get the bonus

Wow! I like the FC surveys since they pay fairly well and have lots of opportunities there!

That happens to me a lot, another  Global Test Market just keeps popping up; most time I loose out on either because I get tried of hem popping up  or stay until they stop and then get no credit! which is why I will usually just clicked myself out and go on to something else.
