Took a survey and I assumed all was going well. Answered all questions correctly. Took about 15 minutes. After answering the last question I was given DQ and 1 cent. I do not know why because they were direct questions and I gave direct answers. Some of these surveys are so unfair! Feel better now that I vented.

I don't have much luck with surveys so don't try them much.

This happens to me at least a few times a week. I hate it but I guess it is part of the process.

I'm glad you feel better after venting. Sometimes that's all it takes. I've found that when this happens, and it does happen to all of us that do survey sites, it's best not to let it upset you too much and move on. Getting upset only hurts you. But venting is one of the great things about this board. Hope you have better luck with your next survey.

Been there, done that, got the DQ penny - sometimes I didn't even get that. It's a bummer, that's for sure. :(
It's really annoying when you spend all that time, get to the final page and find out that the quota is full. It would be nice if we could somehow be 'grandfathered in' to a survey once we begin to take it. That way we get a fair opportunity to complete it without getting booted out for circumstances beyond out control. ::)
-
Yes, I've gotten that too. If you do a survey too slowly then it's likely to be "quota full" at the end. But if you do it too fast they DQ you for going too fast. ::) ::) ::) You can't win LOL.

Nothing you can do about it. I have contacted support several times about this and was told that perhaps I just needed to concentrate on other parts of the site. So nothing will ever be done. They just decide they don't want to pay you and they still use your answers. A lot of times if the survey is say for Comcast Cable and you will never purchase from them. You can complete the survey and at the end when you have said you will never use their services they don't pay you. So basically they want you to lie not tell the truth.

I know. This really makes me mad. They should not let more people start the survey than can finish it. The quota should be say if it's 150 people then no more than 150 people can begin the survey.

Just happened to me. 85 questions. And the last one it says sorry you don't qualify to take this survey and I get a penny for almost 30 minutes.
-
Crazy how the surveys disqualify someone.
-
That is why I can't do too many a day. It is so laborious for a few cents....if they go through.
Being 75, there are not a whole lot that I can take. I have a few sites I trust to have a legit chance to finish.
But they wear me out, and I am currently taking a survey-break to rest my brain a bit.
:rose:

I had one of those surveys today. I had well over 60 questions answered, demographics were on the last page, and I was disqualified. So annoying, it happens so much, I try to not let it bother me.
-
I don't have a lot of luck with surveys. Once in a great while I will qualify for one, but most of the time all I get is the one cent.
-
That sucks. i also hate it when you don't do it fast enough and their quotas are full.
-
sometimes I get really lucky with the surveys, other times I don't but I feel ike getting at least a penny is something
-
Keep trying...do not despair.
-
That has happened to me many times. Very frustrating and really makes me feel like I wasted a lot of time, but I guess that's the way it goes. I just move on to the next thing.
-
had hat happened several times bu never recieved credit bu nothing you can do but try another survey.
-
I think they should offer more when they disqualify a survey, or give surveys that make sense.
-
Yeah I've found you'll almost always get kicked out if you state you will definitely or probably never use/buy a certain product. I've learned it pays to keep an open mind in these surveys ;)
-
This is why I try and stick with the shorter surveys. Too many times have this happened to me.
-
so sorry this happened to you. I have had it happened so many times that it's discouraging. good luck with your future surveys!
-
I hate when I get disqualified as well and I spent a lot of time on a survey. I took one survey and I was almost at the end and thought I was getting credited and ended up getting disqualified. :(
-
I got 1 survey today and I that I ended up with being DQ'D close to the end and then on I was almost done according to the finish line and the quota was filled. Oh well such as life I guess. So I will try again for some more late. Maybe my luck will change.
-
I couldn’t agree more, it really really sucks to spend 30 minutes to just get one penny. Wish they would find some way of preventing this
-
It really sucks when you get so far into a survey just to be disqualified. It happens though.
-
I do not even start very many surveys, unless I have a lot of time I get DQ'd so often. It is frustrating when you have spent a lot of time on it.
-
I agree completely. Spending time on a survey and then being told you don't qualify is frustrating to me. :'(
-
This happens to me so much, I go on like a wild goose chase for like 15 minutes only to be hit with the DQ. I only do survery once in a while when I don't mind wasting some time, but otherwise I stick to more quick things like the videos or tasks. Might just be because I was instant satisifaction, but it's annoying to spend 15 minutes doing something only to have it turn out bad.
-
Unfortunately these things happen. Who knows what caused it. Maybe they got enough responses before you finished. Maybe the system thought you didn't take long enough. All you can do is move on and try again.
