Has anyone done a survey for a half hour then gotten the sorry you dont qualify

[Anita6586]

Toluna is the worst for this!Yes! consuming 20-30min.of your time,then pop-up states sorry this survey is full,or you did'nt qualify.
Your personal responses are used for other purposes,and credit for your space of time is benefiting someone else.

[aggie49]

yes i have and i agree it not right but i do think we should get some kind of pay for it

[Mojoshog]

Yes been there.   .....

[animikokala]

Not anymore.  I no longer attempt surveys unless they have an estimated time of 20 minutes or less.

[ariel2010]

Yeah!   that happen to a lot of times. They should give half credits for our time.

[champak97]

Happened to me a number of times, even though I read and answer everything properly. Sometimes, when the quota fills up, I think the survey says "you are not qualified, after 25 or 30 mts, but other times, I think it is the survey companys way of avoiding payment, even after getting all the necessary responses. May or may not be true, but that is what I think.

[dbsaus1]

I think you should at least get some credit for your time you spent on the survey. Time is money.

I was thinking the same thing when i saw this.  The vendor got a lot of data and did not reimburse you for your efforts.

[hicham1976]

it happened for me 4 time , more than 15 minutes then sorry not qualified.

[dracorium]

When you get that far and it says sorry the data is thrown away. if you dont get the credit it is illegal for them to keep the info you supplied

[charmaine56]

They are keeping the info. Because you start getting phone calls related to data you entered. And you dont even give them your phone number so they just know from other items you have filled out what your phone number is. Illegal doesnt seem to matter on some of the surveys. I might be wrong however.  I have found that OK I got my info from someone I offered to allow to call. Then a month later after I have explained to them I got the info allready please stop calling. A month later they start calling the cell phone at the hours its most expensive. Using the battery up. And knowing you have requested that you obtained the call you needed, and please dont keep calling. After a survey it seems the same folks start calling again. It somehow clicks in a way that all your surveys that you did go into effect again. Anyway I know which company not to even qualify for now. Because they will say you qualified. They have you sign their terms to taking the survey and have you go on and on and on even a half hour then drop you. Just start writing down which ones do this cause its only one of them that get you to take a whole survey and drop you. ths is true of another place I do penny work for.

 

[bessie1111]

Yes, this has happened to me too.

[patrick122068]

Yes, i have had that happen to me twice today and it was frustrating! 

[acurtsinger2]

it happened to me 3 times yesterday so i'm going to wait a day or two before i try any again.

[acurtsinger2]

When you get that far and it says sorry the data is thrown away. if you dont get the credit it is illegal for them to keep the info you supplied

shouldn't fc protect us from that? are we basically at our own risk?

[bowrunner]

Yes it has happened to me and they are not just questions to see if I qualify they are survey questions that suddenly I did not qualify for or the survey is filled or etc.  In the meantime I have wasted 20 or 30 minutes of my day.  It really makes me angry.
