Survey Vent

[linanglab]

I am not the right age, do not have the right brand of printer, my kids are not over 13 and under 36 months, I do not eat at the right restaurants, do not drink alcohol, do not have the right bank for my checking, do not have a new enough vehicle, nor planning on buying the RIGHT vehicle in the future, do not shop at the right stores, nor buy the right brand of clothing....Can I PLEASE qualify for SOMETHING!!!!

okay...vent over...for now....

I share your frustration but for a different reason. I generally qualify without much of a problem but lately I have been taking surveys where I answer questions for 15 - 20 minutes and then I do not get sent page to the Congratulations page. After completing what seems like a whole survey I get told that I do not qualify for any surveys. Somedays I actually complete 4 or 5 surveys before I get one to credit and no, I do not do them quickly! It seems that the surveys companies are getting all the information they need without having to pay.

LOL. I certainly understand the frustration. It sucks when you answer those questions on several pages and then get sorry you do not qualify. Try another survey. Sometimes you can go for an hour and still not get anything. :computer:

I have only completed 9 surveys this month. Not that I haven't tried. After 10+ tries, I get tired of seeing, sorry, we have reached our quota. And I do get tired of filling all my info out - at least 5 minutes worth, then for them to tell my I do not qualify. I just want 1 more this month to get my $1.00 bonus. I knew I couldn't get to 20 early on when I couldn't get any surveys to accept me.

Ya, but if your an IT person or have/are buying a new car in the next 24 months...you'll never be short on surveys. LOL

Thats ok, I didn't qualify for 22 of them this morning, but I think I have reached my 25, will know in a little bit, so if I am, I'll quit and leave the rest for you gals.

I did one the other day where I did a complete survey(And they even said "Thank you that is all the survey questions we have for you today. The remaining questions are for classifying purposes.") and then when they asked the questions at the end to "classify" me....they said I did not qualify and booted me out!!! THAT was dirty playing.:computer:

[speechteachri]

Join the club!!! I don't qualify for many of the reasons you listed...but also my DH works for a TV station....try that on for size!!!! I'm lucky to make it to 10 in any given month. This month I am above the norm with 11. I must live in the right area of the country!!!:rotfl:

The same happened to me last week! I was so mad!!! I did send an email about it though I knew I wasn't going to get credit. I just didn't want to let them get away with being sneaky.

I have not qualified for a SINGLE survey this month. Not one. So be happy some of you made it to 10 or whatever, because some of us have not gotten a single one for the month, and only got three for August. :(

I always seem to eventually qualify even though my only child is 20, I don't go out at the right restaurants, don't drink, drive a new vehicle, shop at the right stores for the right kind of clothes....

On the other hand, I'm going through menopause, have diabetes, arthritis, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart problems and a throid condition. :(

[eaglesdare]

i have 10 people in this household, age 5 months up to 50 yrs. so i usually qualify for somehting, but it may take me a while.

i finished my 18th survey this morning.

[wilsonfamily4]

I am with you! The surveys remind me I am a boring average American. :) You also forgot the spent so much money on clothes one, and I also do not own a cell phone. :) Really stinks huh? My husband did get one on fastfood today as he eats out, I do not. :)

How many times a day do you try??? I have never heard of anyone not getting a single survey all month long. I know there are times when I have to try 20-30 times on some days but I normally manage to get one if I have the time to try try try. This has been my best month ever. I am 26/26 so far!!

[miraclemommy]

I never seem to qualify either, sometime I try 10 times or more, but I just don't have the time to try and try and try. I have tried letting some of my younger friends and family, but they never seem to qualify either. I think I must live in the wrong area or something. I have only completed one this month, and 1 last month. I have finally just given up. It was just so darn frustrating that I just said the heck with it and gave up. 80 cents a day would be great, but I have a family and a job, so I just don't take the time anymore. I am not going to make SM this quarter either, so I am really bummed. But I have been working alot, school starting and all the things that come along with that, and I just haven't had the time to spend here. It is really bumming me out. Sorry to vent, just feeling a little down tonight.

I usually try at least 2-3 times per day. Like miraclemommy said, I don't have time to try all day long, but I usually check whenever I have a chance to get online.

Heres a little trick, see if this helps. Take just about all your qualifying info out and try to qualify, naturally you won't, when you get back to that page, add all the stuff back in, then retry. Sometimes it looks as though they overlook some of your qualifications, and then when you put them back in, walla, its all new.

[linanglab]

I did make it to 10! The last 2 days I was able to take surveys. It took me quite a few tries, but made it! Gotta love that extra $1.00 that I know is coming! Hopefully in October I will qualify for more and make the 25 that I made last month. Maybe they will have some new batches of surveys.

[abcboys]

I share in you guys frustration!!! I don't have time to try and try and try and try again for a survey and yet I find myself doing just that. I love SR but I have other things in my life I could be doing than spending 1-2 hours trying to earn .80. Am I really that desperate??
