I watched a video for 30 minutes then at the end said i did not qualify WHY????

OK I AM MAD!!! I did a survey and got through the whole question thing WATCHED 30 OR MORE MINUTES and then when it was almost done said i did not qualify this is unffair and wrong to do that is a waste of time and it is also misleading to take someones time like that and then at the end disqualify them. I am pissed

Do you have a broadband ISP connection or dial up?

I recall when I was using dial up, it would take a long time to get some of the video ads, that are frequently in certain types of surveys, a long time to load -- and often resulted in my not being able to qualify  -- particularly if I could view the ad.

If you have broadband, then I'm surprised it would take 30 minutes to DQ you -- that usually happens to me in less than 5.  But being DQ'd is just part of the process.

But I would also get TO'd if I worked all the way through the survey only to be DQ's at the end -- or worse -- lose out due a technical difficulty.  That's happened to me.

Fortunately, I get credit often enough to make it worth while continuing.  Take heart!  You'll get surveys to credit, just don't give up on them entirely.

I got invited to do one of those one time and I thought it sounded fun, so I decided to do it even though I don't usually do surveys.  It wasn't a video at all but asked me a whole bunch of questions and then told me I wasn't qualified.  Some people like surveys but I can't tolerate them for exactly the reason you say.  I always end up feeling frustrated and mad at myself for wasting my time.

Good for you!  Nice to know that it worked out.  That was an awesome deal.  I on the other hand have a problem with patience.  Not sure if I will ever become a more patient person.

A 30 minute video, I find that torture and impossible.

[samrhett2]

Well maybe but if it paid $10 that would be $20 per hour.  Lots of people would be happy to have a job watching videos for that amount.
