Title: Watch out for Long Survey on Another site
Post by: sfreeman8 on November 05, 2018, 02:34:50 pm
It's political/reactions to groups, people, policies, etc. by Cint. It said 20 minutes and paid over $1 but with all the questions, it took me 45 minutes. They were real "thinking" questions. Anyway, I got near the end when up popped a page stating "Sorry. You did not qualify for this survey."  Can you imagine how frustrated I was?  No, not frustrated, absolutely furious!!!  >:( >:( >:( 

I couldn't do anything about it because I don't know how to save the last page or where to save a screen shot since I'm also new to Windows 10 and don't know where to save anything (hate it!).

So I'm just giving everyone a heads up in case you see this survey. I was enjoying it so it really had me bummed out.

Thanks for the heads up.  I don't usually do surveys that are 20 minutes, but I know what you mean about interesting surveys.  Sorry you didn't get the credit.

I hate it when surveys lie about the time. It makes me not want to do them.

I also hate misleading surveys. I am mad when they say it is a 10 or 20 minute survey and it goes on forever. Then it either disqualifies you or gives you 20 c when the original survey said a higher amount :peace:

Hate very long surveys sometimes I use my tablet . Answer question  after question  put the tablet down to get up for something.  Then forget I'm doing a  survey and sure enough the survey waited for me to continue I finally get my 20,30 or 40 cents.  But still only money I make.

Funny cause I took a 'Cint ' survey yesterday, I think under Tap Research.  It was very long, maybe almost an hour.  I completed it and instead of getting the submit page I got a "server error" page and not even 1 cent for DQ'd.  Of course this crap has happened to me before and that  is why I don't want to put much time into surveys.  Just DQ me quickly as possible.

I think that we are on the same site. I had a similar problem with a Cint survey yesterday, I got an email invite from another site. It paid 85 cents and the survey was about 30 minutes. I have no idea why I even attempted but I did. I completed the survey, submitted and got some kind of error at the end after submitting.  No credit. Not happy! Very unhappy.

Thanks everyone. I was starting to feel quite paranoid. I agree they should DQ you in the beginning and not after you do the survey. I usually don't try long surveys either but couldn't resist the $$ for that one. So now I'll just chalk it up to "never qualifying for surveys over 10 cents because the highest I've ever qualified for is 27 cents. 

I'd love to not bother with surveys at all but the offers are always the same and I completed all the ones I could do when I first signed up years ago.

That is why I love Tap Research.  They DQ you pretty quick and it is often more than just a penny.  Plus, it isn't bonus money so it counts toward to Paid-to-Click.

It's incredibly dishonest to ask qualifying questions AFTER they already have all your info. So frustrating.

I do pretty well with surveys in general.  On occasion, though, I run into just what you have experienced.  Forget about any time frame the survey panel suggests it will take to complete.  Many surveys that I have taken are completed successfully in the time allotted.

Then there are those that don't seem to want to ever end.  Worse yet, I also experience the nasty dq after investing so much time. 

For the most part I've given up on trying to send a support ticket.  Like you, I could never find the  page required as a screen shot. 

Rather than deal with the endless aggravation, I simply move on to the next survey.  There's a successfully completed and credited survey just around the corner.

I usually do not have time for long surveys. I've busy with other things. I usually take long surveys if it pays out more.
