Regular Survey Paying Better

[bostonphil]

I have been taking a survey that says 5 minutes long and pays 9 cents.  I have been taking this survey for months if not years and I do it to earn my 5 cents.

Today that exact same survey paid 15 cents. The survey itself did not change but the pay did. I am wondering if that was a fluke or if this will continue.

I have been wondering if more and better paying offers will begin to be available now that the country is beginning to recover from COVID. Persons are beginning to go back to work as well as travel and may not have the time to take surveys or the interest.

Let's hope so but I don't think it will help me. I just tried 6 surveys and booted from all and didn't get credit. This is the last month I can get to the cash out amount before they start deducting off my balance and I have a little over $8 to earn. I don't think I'll make it.Usually I can make a couple the first few days of the month but not this month. For most of the offers on the video page, are still showing a trojan and I definitely won't try those. Doesn't leave much for me to do except the forum bonus which I will not post since they aren't paying.

I hate to hear that. Just maybe we will get our Forum Bonuses this month.

I just completed a very long survey for 30 cents. Often the very long surveys that do not pay well are easier to qualify for and get credited as well.

It was paying .9 cents, but for months now, it has been paying .15 cents.

This will be the first time since I joined in 2009 that I'm not able to cash out before the "deadline" of 6 months. I'm getting tired of trying so if I do, by some miracle, be able to cash out, I'll be taking some time away from FC. I'll check in every so often to see if things change for the better. I do have other sites that usually pay better and almost immediately when hitting the amount necessary for cashing out.

It was paying .9 cents, but for months now, it has been paying .15 cents.

I have not been getting 15 cents for this survey. Once in a.great while I did but mostly I continued to get 9 cents. I do not know yet if I will continue to get 15 cents for this 5 minute survey or if it will go back to 9 cents.

Wow.  You lucked out on that one.  For the last few days I have not been able to qualify for a survey.  All I have been getting is the DQ bonus.

I did get 15 cents the last couple of times that I did this one but today I got only 9 cents.  Maybe there are different versions and one is longer.

By a regular survey do you mean a FC Survey?

No, I was talking about a PL survey that I do regularly.
