I am having problems with ssi.
When ssi first started I never got credit for them so I stopped doing them.
I gave ssi another try tonight.
I logged out of SR used ccleaner then I logged back in to sr.
When to ssi and got a survey on my 3rd try finished about 8:00.
Got this page at the finish, is this the right page?

I've never seen anyone have as consistent of problems with SSI as you have. there has to be something blocking their particular cookie for you. Do you get credits for all of the other surveys? What is your userid?

Chris

I have no problems right now with any of the other surveys.

userid is 1785

I just double checked and we definitely didn't get a credit for you. :( Is it possible that you have some kind of firewall or cookie cleaner that has a list of URLs that it is blocking? I'm just stumped.

Chris
08-11-2010, 10:11 PM
I don't have a firewall or have any sites that are blocked.

Thanks Tricia for looking in to this so fast!
I hope that you can find a reason why ssi does not credit for me.
It's no fun when you have the 6 pack game and I can't join in on the fun.

Okay, so I'm going to throw this out there and hope that someone has an idea. Even since the GF tech problems last week I have not been able to take a GF daily or SM survey using FireFox. I click on the SR DS link, fill in my demographics and then get a white page. I can see that the page is trying to load but never does. When I click out and then go back in to try again, all my demographic information is gone. That's a change from before. The information would stay and you could just try for a survey again without entering the demographics all over again. I can take every other survey in FF.
I did think to try the GF surveys in Safari and am able to get in and they have been crediting, but Safari is really slow on my Mac and I have the latest version, and a pretty new computer. Any thoughts about Firefox and daily surveys? Thank you!

Can u check to see if FF has one of those lists of blocked sites? Also check to make sure there wasn't an add on d/l to ur firefox on accident that is blocking it. It sounds like something is blocking or deleting cookies, especially since u have to reenter ur info each time

I use ie and am having the same exact issues. However, if I keep trying I usually get one at some point in the day. It is just taking alot more time than it did before the issues last week. I never did get an sm yesterday...just kept trying to load. I am taking the other surveys ssi & amp without a problem. Maybe they havent worked all the issues out yet? Hopefully, it will be back to normal for us soon...

I'm having no problems now with the majority of surveys with the exception of MV. I (or my husband when he is available to try) have not been able to qualify for a survey since Thursday 7/29, 14 days straight of not qualifying and ironically it started when the survey problems all started. Never had a problem qualifying before, so I have no idea what has changed...it's been the same qualifying questions asked for the whole time too, it never changes? I just can't figure it out, very strange. Anyone else in the same boat? :confused:

PSL, I don't know what to tell you. I don't get MV too often and got my first one of the month today. I don't think I tried too hard for one while there were tech issues, so this is the first since your problems started too. I'm having trouble qualifying for most of the surveys this month, but I think new ones are just slow to be added.

MV is almost dead right now. We literally have about 10 people complete them a day. But they assured me that more surveys will be coming soon. I think they are a very small company.

I heard a rumor that you can take multiple SSI surveys a day. However, I don't want to encourage it until we start getting paid by them because I'm feeling a little uneasy right now. We haven't been paid since we started running them in May. :( But SG talked to someone else today who assured him we will get a check by the end of next week.

Yikes! You haven't gotten paid by them yet? I'd be feeling uneasy too, and way before now. I didn't see this thread earlier and I DID get an MV survey on the first try and it credited shortly after. I also got two of them during the "problem" period, and got my credits a couple of days later (Thanks, Tricia.) I just don't have time to try for all of the surveys each day except for GF, so perhaps that makes the difference?

Just an FYI, posting here doesn't make a difference on whether or not you get those credits. They send credits to Tricia and she credits them to people. If they don't send the credit she can't give people credit. My understanding is that the MV credits are back to working correctly for those who get them. I think that this issue that you had was a fluky survey that didn't go to the second page and not one of the issues they were having last week when they were getting the second page but not getting credits. However if anyone else is having issues with MV not crediting after going to the second page please let us know.

I wanted to add that I also just got the delicious treat survey on MV and it went to the second page. I will let you know if it credits on the hour.


Yep! It was there almost immediately after I posted this. I think it was a fluke for you. Sorry!

mellymel261
08-12-2010, 09:48 PM
I dont think it is just me because they put their typical error message:

We apologize for the inconvenience, but our reward system validation is experiencing technical difficulties. We have logged your information and will contact you to complete your reward at the email address you supplied in the beginning of the survey. If you would like to contact customer service click the link below and indicate code=42

That is an error on their end not mine. I think I will just not take that one anymore I am spending too much time and not getting the credits for them if the manual credits arent going to be given as you are stating

It isn't MV that hasn't paid it is SSI that hasn't paid. Tricia said that MV is a small company and that she hasn't seen a lot of credits coming through from them each day because a lot of people aren't qualifying for their surveys because they don't have a lot of surveys to choose from. I did finally qualify for a MV last night and got credit after 10 days of getting the same qualifying questions over and over so I wouldn't give up on them just yet. They told her they were going to be loading more surveys and apparently they did load at least one yesterday. SSI is the one that has yet to send a check to Tricia but she is expecting a check soon.

Qualified and took one of the new My Thoughts longer suveys...about fast food coffee. Spent a LONG time doing it, finished and then was told..Didnt qualify. Went back and qualified for another one...same thing. Two survey's taken, kicked out at very end. The curse of Friday the 13th?

Pam-you are not alone. i haven't gotten a mv since 7/30 (2 full weeks ago) and all i get is the qualifying pages and then am told there are no surveys available. guess mv hates me too. oh well, at least i did get the long amp survey and it credited so that's the bright spot of my day.

I haven't had much luck with them either, but I keep trying lol! So I did have a new twist today: Today for the first time, just out of the blue, I have gotten the page asking me to log in with email & password! I have never signed up for them and have only taken their surveys through the SR link, so I have no clue why that is happening all of a sudden!

I suppose I will just keep plugging along with it periodically, clearing cookies etc, and maybe it will go back to normal for me, just as it suddenly as it went haywire! :)

just tried to do the long amp survey and i got the following message:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /z/20028/CD1250/4054p124 on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

i've only seen this message once b4 when i tried to do an amp and it eventually let me but for some reason today every time i have tried i get this message. has anyone else gotten this message or is it just me?:confused: if anyone has any insight into this problem it would be greatly appreciated. :thanks:

was finally able to get one, completed the whole thing, got the thank you page but for some reason it did not credit. oh well, you win some, you lose some. guess i can try again later.

if i am allowed to vent then the only thing i have to say is ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! have been trying for the last couple of days to get an amp and all it does is cycle thru asking the same questions over and over again (am i hispanic, what i drink, what tv stations i watch) and when i answer their questions i get the thanks for trying page. sh has kicked me out of 2 so far this morning and now they have nothing and i still can't get a mv (after 17 days of trying). on the bright side i did get a ds, sm and ssi today. now i feel better.

Heather-they usually take the same amount of time as the regular amp surveys - credit at the top of the hour or 2nd hour. have you done this offer b4 or is this the first time? reason i ask is that i did it last friday and got credit for it and tried again on saturday, completed the whole survey and got the thank you page but didn't get credit for it so i am guessing that it can only be done once.

Sorry, I had a nice short one earlier this morning and it credited instantly. I think the few I've taken that have not credited for SH have gone thru Quick Surveys and GF. The best explanation I can come up with for those on my end is maybe the cookie expires because the survey took too long?

Marcy,

Cindy and Tricia decided to allow this thread so that people could post that they are having technical difficulties but it is truly not meant to be a vent space and it seems like what you use it for. I understand the frustration you have with the MV not allowing you to qualify but people ARE qualifying so it is TRULY your demographics that aren't matching up and we can do NOTHING about that. We want other people to be able to find helpful information in the forums and that kind of information gets lost and buried in posts about how you haven't been able to qualify for surveys. We can't even report qualifying issues to the survey companies. Please don't take the kindness of Tricia and Cindy for granted in assuming that because they opened a thread for survey issues that you can use it to vent everyday. If you do that then they will end up not reading the thread at all and the real issues will go unread and won't be addressed with the survey companies. I'm just asking that you make our jobs a little easier and not use this thread as a place to vent about qualifying. Thanks!

Anyone else having problems with the Super Member Y2C crediting? Took and completed the 1st one around 5:30PM, went to the usual page and did not credit at 6 or 7PM. Closed my browser(FF), ran c cleaner, took another one and completed that at 8:40PM, usual last page, no credit at 9PM. I haven't installed any updates, I use FF most of the time. Checked my list of blocked cookies and don't see anything that would be a problem. :confused:

I can tell you that as a Mod I avoid this thread since it usually is just posts about qualifying and crediting. It just depresses me and I don't really need any more downers right now in my life. So take it for what it's worth when you are posting in here.

The only survey I have a credit problem with is SSI - have taken many of them and I dont think I have seen one credit come through - is there a time delay liek they only do it once a month or every few weeks?

jnorth1007
08-18-2010, 07:21 AM
No there is no time delay they should be crediting on the hour. Have u tried changing to a different browser? I would also check the security settings on ur browser. Make sure that ssi is not ion one of ur blocked sites lists. There is definetly something blocking ur cookies if u haven't received any credits for ssi surveys. The key is to figure out what it is. I know there is another member (Chris is the screen name) who also has the same problem. Perhaps u guys can PM each other and compare systems to see what could be causing the problem. Good Luck!

I did an AMP later last night and it did credit. I just completed SH, it went back to the SR page normally but did not credit. I'll check out my computer more tonight. I completed DS yesterday too, will see if that credits today.:confused::confused:

jnorth1007

It seems that sometimes the SH's don't credit like they should. It isn't a major issue but I have found that every 4 or 5 I do won't go through the whole cycle of yellow page to SR main site and I won't get credit. I usually think it is just a technical issue that it doesn't load completely back to the SR page which triggers the credit. If you are getting the majority of your credits from them then I would just assume that this was a fluke and not the norm and clear your cookies and try again for another SH. Because it is the only one that credits immediately it also has the most chance of having issues arise in the crediting process. Good luck!!

Not sure what's going on with that! I just finished one that credited about 10 minutes ago. Might just be a survery or two that are flaky! Hopefully your next one will credit!

Update-tonight I cleared cookies, used IE to take surveys. completed Y2C (Super member), SH and SSI. Surveyhead was the only what that credited. I have no idea what the problem is. I hoped it was FF, but IE is just as bad????

jnorth1007
08-18-2010, 09:28 PM
I would say that if you are having this many issues with such an array of the surveys there is something on your computer causing you issues. I would start from the top and run an AVG type program to make sure there isn't a spyware type program hidden on your computer. One thing you might also try if you are on wireless is to plug in the ethernet chord to your router and then to your computer and clear cookies and take them that way. It will let you know if it is something in your wireless. I have had issues since the start with my wireless and I am unable to do anything on SR without being plugged in to the ethernet chord. I don't know why but nothing was crediting consistently before I started doing this. Now it all credits the majority of the time. If those do not work I would say you need to do a serious search of your computer for blocked lists or something similar. Are you closing all windows except SR when you are taking surveys? I also have to do that because if I have AOL open when I am on SR they regenerate new IP addresses the whole time I am on there and it messes with my cookies. Use myip website to check and see what if your ip addresses are changing. Check it and then wait a little while and check it again. If it is different then that means that there is an issue. I hope one of these will help.

Hi! I am new to the forums and I completed two SSI surveys a couple of days ago and then another one just yesterday and I have not received any credits for them I am not sure what is happening??

I asked one another thread and got some insturctions on who to check cookies and all of that and settings apprear to be the same as everyone else but I am not getting the credits.

Also, I installed the printer for coupons.com and have gone through to print some each day and no credits for that either. :confused:

What am I missing? I am out about 1.90 for what I have completed but not got credit for :cry:

It is not a technical issue. They are a very small company and they don't get as many surveys as other companies. I wish I could say that it is a technical issue that they could fix but it isn't. They have simply run out of surveys and are loading new ones sporadically. Probably not what u want to hear but keep trying.

As far as mv goes...I agree that we must have taken them all. lol I can remember when we first started doing those Tricia said not to count on them everyday because they are a small company. I was surprised when I got one every day. Since they had the issues I havent been able to get one and have quit trying ( I get tired of filling out that info over and over). I will be happy with my 5 until it sounds like people are getting them again.

I just completed a SH using a strange new format.....the survey company logo and name were on a banner that floated thru the middle of the screen....you couldn't see the button to advance the question, you just kinda had to guess that it was there. the screens were all lined up incorrectly too, you'd see 3/4 of the question, move on and see the last 1/4 of the previous and 1/2 of the next one......I thought for sure it would error out but it didn't. I do't know if there is a way to let them know it's not formatted properly.

Leslie-when you completed your sh survey did a bright yellow page come up saying that they appreciate your time in taking their surveys and then it went back to sr or did it just go back to sr? reason i ask is that if you don't get the bright yellow page it probably won't credit. i speak from experience.

Is anyone else having problems with Survey Head? I took a survey early this morning, completed it and it returned to the SR page, but didn't credit. Thinking it was just "one of those surveys", cleared cookies and tried a couple hours later and had the same results. I completed the 2nd survey, it returned to the SR page, but didn't credit again. I have never had a problem with SH, but I think its strange that I would get two in a row that didn't credit. I haven't changed any of the settings on my computer and I am getting credit for other surveys just fine. Thanks for any help you can offer.

YES!! This is the third one I have taken in a week and a half that hasn't credited. :( I am getting frustrated now.:(

I've never had issues with SH...it's the one that I seem to get pretty much any day that I have time to do it. BLah. Guess I'll try to find time to try another one later....just my luck that it would happen to me on the weekend that they are at an increased payout :computer:

Since you guys use this thread to vent I thought that perhaps you would allow me to vent for a moment. We have been trying to explain to you guys for a while the impact that your posts have on other people in the forum. We have expressed our understanding that it is frustrating to not qualify or get credit for surveys. We get it! We also know that you guys aren't the only ones who come the forums and that some people come her to find out information and not to just vent.

I don't know if you guys saw the thread earlier by a newer member who was having issues with getting the SH to work for her. People were trying to help her figure out what the problem was but she was getting frustrated. She went looking in the forum for information and instead found a bunch of posts about issues with SH crediting or working. Based upon these posts she decided to cancel her membership and donate her earning to the charity.

Now I would think that we all know that the majority of the surveys credit the majority of the time. However, all you guys post about are the negatives and the issues so when people are looking for information it looks like it is not worth trying SR because all they will deal with is surveys they can't qualify for or that they can't get to credit. I would bet that if you all looked at your numbers you would say that the majority of the money you earn are off of surveys. Because of there only being complaints posted the people who most need the help can't get it or decide not to bother because of all of the negative press you guys are giving SR.

I know you all love SR as much as I do so I know you aren't doing it to try to hurt Tricia or her business but that is exactly what you are doing. Don't get me wrong I know that life and SR are not all a bed of roses but if you read the posts in this forum from the viewpoint of a new person just starting out I think you would agree that you would say that it isn't worth it to even try SR because all they have is issues.

It breaks my heart to think that if that person hadn't have read all of the negative info about SH that perhaps she would have been open to us helping her figure out what the issue was and we could have helped her earn as much as you guys have. Now she won't even bother to try.

In the end you guys will make your own decisions but I would hope that in the future I would hope that you would censor yourselves when you post. Stop and ask yourself, "Am I posting to get it off of my chest?" or "Am I posting because I need someone to help me figure this out?" If the second one is the answer then I would encourage you to post your question and everyone here will try to help you figure out what the issue it. However, you have to be willing to listen to the answer and try different things to make it work. If you are posting for the first reason stop and consider a different form of venting. If not for yourselves then for the sake of Tricia's business. Would you want to be a part of a program where the long time members are constantly complaining about how awful the surveys are and what an issue the surveys are? Probably not. I would say that if the majority of the surveys were causing these issues for people then we would probably all be gone and wouldn't even bother trying. It is because the majority of them DO credit that we all stay around. However, it isn't the majority of surveys that are being posted about it is the minority and it makes visitors and people who haven't used SR think that this program stinks and isn't worth trying.

I hope I haven't offended anyone as it truly isn't my intention. I really just got upset when I saw the thread from today and I was hoping that maybe I could explain to you guys in a way that wouldn't seem like we were slapping your wrists. When we close or delete threads it is NEVER about trying to punish you it is ALWAYS about trying to make SR the best it can be and I know you all want to be a part of that. Thanks for listening to MY vent! :sunshine::love::heart:

Just take Janet's post as the official warning. We'll be starting to hand out warnings and then infractions if new survey threads are opened in the forum. It is affecting the mood of the forum negatively and now is turning away members which is NOT what we need around here.

What they said.

Very well said I agree Janet. I always thought you were a little mean :blush: when you closed threads and some of the comments, know i see why. Which makes perfect sense when you take the time to think about it. But I totally agree with what your saying. Believe me I do get frustrated but out of all the surveys that I do complete just about 99% of them credit. I've read all the tips and believe me they do help! Tricia is also great for always doing whats best for us.

this is not a problem. just wanted to say that i took an amp survey about an hour and half ago and it was totally interesting as it was about cell phones and cell phone providers, showed me videos and ads and at the end of the survey it wanted to know what tv shows i watched in the last week. finished it at 12:59 and it credited at 1:05. if you get this survey, you will find it to be enjoyable. :sunshine:

I have been having problems for the last week with SH. I get surveys without a problem but a lot of them have ended without coming back to SR. I end up taking another and do get credit which is great, but am wondering....if most people have a survey with an issue and just go ahead and take another is Tricia able to tell that there is a problem or would just taking another cover it up?
I love the money I am earning and realize like everyone else that you dont get them all to credit, but this seems to be ongoing and I am not having problems with others. This is the end page of the survey I just completed.
https://www.petersmktg.com/questionnaire/845-1.php?rn=30019#130 I didnt know if she could tell if the problem is in the link?
It seems like I am taking surveys for more than SR.

Survey Head does not take reports of issues. We could track every non-credit we want but they do not take reports even when we have reported major reporting issues they say it is on our end. I would say that if you are able to go back in and get another one and get credit then consider it a good day.

I think the biggest misconception in these forums is that reporting issues will get them fixed. Wrong. The majority of the survey companies don't let us even report the issues so really they get no further than these forums. If anything they say "If you don't like it we can just cancel your contract." We have to accept things like they are or end the contract and the 95% of people who do get credit will not even get to try. In the end there are thousands of people who are willing to take their surveys without discussing the issues so they don't need us. Continued discussion about issues with them will only result in them cancelling our contract and then we are out of luck. Worth it?

I truly am not trying to be cold or uncaring because there are many of us who have had this happen a few times but really we can't do anything about it and the continued negative discussion of them will make them cancel us. Is it fair? No, but like I said there are alot of people out there willing to take the surveys and not give them negative PR so why bother with us? I would expect that most people, you included, would say that you would rather try two a day a few times a month then to not have the opportunity at all.

:rotfl: Ok here is my problem. Life has gotten so busy since the kids went back to school that I am always trying to get surveys done when I can fit them. I keep a notebook with my surveys in them and mark them off when I complete them. Well I have been getting up at 6am so I can have some quiet time and do my surveys in peace and quiet. Twice in the last week I have taken one at 6am and gotten distracted and not circle it in my book so I have taken another in the afternoon when I got home thinking I hadn't done it and only figured it out when I get 2 credits the next day! I know it must be tough to have 2 extra credits :rotfl: but I swear GF is going to slap the cuffs on me LOL! How do you guys track them and how do you keep from forgetting which ones you took??? Most of them are easy because I can look for the credit and if it is there I know I took it LOL but GF has gotten me twice. You think I would be a bad mom if I made the kids handle their own breakfast so I can finish my surveys and this won't happen? LOL

Hi Janet -

I have a gigantic excel spreadsheet where I keep track of my Sunshine earnings - I have on page for each of the survey companies, one for Freebies/Offers, one for shopping and a totals page where I can see how much I have earned for each survey, shopping, or offer. Can you tell I was an accountant in a previous lifetime???? For each survey page, each line is dated and I put in what the survey was about, how much I earned and there is a column where I put an x when it credits! I don't know if this system would be of any help to you because all you're doing is circling something. But it works for me!! :sunshine:

I have never had an issue before it just seems my mind is so distracted with so much going on that I keep forgetting to mark it. I guess I just need to make myself mark it each time. Thanks for your advice. We sound like twins LOL but I am a bookkeeper for several local business and the treasurer of the PTA so I guess that is where the numbers things comes from.

You have to have something on your computer messing with your SH cookies. I would make sure to do a really deep cleaning with AVG or something similar. It is very weird that you took 6 that didn't credit and that is definitely not a SH issue. I have gotten credit for every SH I took this month. If you haven't gotten any of the last 6 there is something that is blocking your SH cookies from being saved. Especially if you are going back to the SR home page and not getting credit. I would do some serious research on your computer and maybe do a search of your computer for the words "surveyhead" and see if there is anything hidden in the files somewhere that it could be being blocked. Let me know if you find anything.

I recently downloaded CCCleaner and I've run that every day (sometimes more than once to make sure) and it hasn't seemed to change anything. I've gotten credits for all of the other surveys I've completed and I used to get my SH credits instantly. I'll take a peek and see what I can find.

Can you do me a favor and view the source code of the page the next time that this happens? If you use Firefox, it's "View" "Page Source". Then copy and paste that page into a word doc or notepad and email it to me? If the Sunshine Rewards pixel is showing up on that page, there isn't any reason at all that it shouldn't be working for you unless 1) maybe your surveys are taking more than an hour, or 2) something is blocking the Sunshine Rewards cookie.

I have a question about the SSI survey's.
I finally completed one yesterday, but if you end up with the "flag page" in the end, does that mean you don't get credit? It has the flags of all nations, then the message in different languages, saying it will determin if you took the survey honestly.

I took a survey last nite and got the flag page, and still no credit this morning. I remember trying to take the SSI survey's a couple of times, and that page popped up, and I figured their were no survey's for me to take.

I just took a SH survey this morning on my laptop (instead of my desktop) and it credited immediately. Then it hit me that I'd done all of the other ones on my desktop. So, I am pretty sure that the problem is with my desktop settings or something. I will just continue taking the surveys as usual, but I will use my laptop instead:sunshine:.

jnorth1007
08-26-2010, 09:56 AM
The flag page is a disqualifying page. It has to go to the page with the 2 sets of stars for it to credit. I think ssi has one with a disqualifier that tricky or something cause my first one yesterday went all the way to the end and then the flag page. I did another one right after and it qualified.

If you have already done the long one once, you will NOT get credit for another one because they are set up as offers. Except when I load it as a new offer. Our system is set up to only allow each person to get credit one time for each offer. The survey pages are set up totally differently so that you can do them each day.

I've been losing interest in surveys these days because I keep getting ones that I actually get INTO the survey with (not just the qualifying q's) and take a whole survey for 15-25 minutes, then do the classification questions at the end, and then get the "I'm sorry, although you didn't qualify for this survey..." screen. I don't get it...? :confused: It's not worth my time, and I'm bummed because I just want to do enough to bump me over $200 but at this point I don't know...

Sounds like you are going to fast...if they think you rushed doing the survey, you will get disqualified in the end. I've had that happen to me too and I have to really try hard to slow down, I read fast and I've almost memorized the questions and tend to answer too fast sometimes....slow down and see if that helps.

This has happened to me recently. Yes, it's frustrating when I spend half an hour trying to qualify for surveys, only to be told "sorry" after I think I've completed a survey. I just walk away from my computer, go do something completely different to take my mind off my frustration, then try another survey company later that day. I just have to remember that not every day will be a good survey day for me, but some days will be, and that is what makes it worth it!

Yes, I do them slow on purpose, for this very reason.

It's happened to me in the past, but it's happened like 4 times in the last 2 days for me! (and I've only been attempting a few each day) That's what I don't get. But I'm definitely not going too fast.

Was it on Mexican style chicken? I just completed it too (same peters marketing research via SH) and didn't get credit. Bummer too, b/c the survey was interesting, easy and fairly short. Oh well.

Yep. You can do it again now. Until we figure out if want to add these permanently to the MTC page as an alternative, I'll just periodically add them as a new offer that each person can do once.

Wow, I'm at a loss for you. It asks me for the letters/numbers too, but I've not had any issues yet with it not accepting what I put in the box? Strange. I hope someone else can help you figure out why you're having problems.

So I'm amused - just did a DS about video games/consoles and I neither have one nor play video games, and I kept answering that I didn't have this or that, didn't do this or that. Usually you get kicked out when all your answers are negative, but not this time - guess it didn't bother them! Doesn't bother me either!:p:D

Trying for an SSI Survey and am getting this message after I enter birthdate and country:

HTTP Status 404 - /projects/prefine

Anyone else getting this? I've gotten 4 other surveys today, so I'm very happy and will survive, but was just wondering.

As if this new opportunity wasn't confusing enough to figure out....

I just took an SSI, and my credit came through as SSI 2.

I did take an SSI yesterday, and it credited properly. I've cleared cookies inbetween last night and the SSI I took today. I'm 99% sure I didn't click through the wrong link. I don't know what I should do when I try for my second today, or if it thinks I've already done two today... :confused:

It all depends on which cookie is still on your system. If there is still a cookie from SSI on your system when you take SSI 2, it might credit SSI 1. Or vice versa. Just always take the one that you did NOT get credit for yet in our system because our system will only let you get credit for one of each every day.

I took an SSI 1 earlier and got credit with no problem. I cleared cookies and took an SSI2 tonight that ended with the stars but nothing and it has been a few hours. That makes 1/3 on the new SSI2. Anyone else having problems with this new one? I am getting the others without a problem.

Here is something I have noticed on my end. The first day SSI2 was available I had alread taken the SSI1 and it would not let me take the SSI2 with my information. It kept giving me the flag page with the cheating message. So then I asked Brandon to take it and his info went through but he couldn't qualify for one. Day 2 I tried for the SSI 1 as usual and couldn't qualify. Brandon used his infor for the SSI2 and got one and it credited but it credited as the SSI1 not the 2. Probably because we didn't clear cookies between attempts. We figured that if I didn't get a survey on my attempts then it wouldn't matter when he tried. Tonight same thing. I tried to get an SSI1 with my info and I couldn't qualify. Brandon came on and tried with his info on the SSI2 and he got one and it credited but it credited as an SSI1. Apparently you need to clear cookies if you are going to go between the two even if you don't get a survey or complete one. The first one you click on is the one that is going to credit when you complete a survey no matter which one you complete it in unless you clear cookies after your initial attempt and before you click on the second one. I hope that makes sense.

KimCh
09-02-2010, 10:37 PM
I took an SSI1 this am without a problem and didnt try for an SSI2 until tonight after I had cleared cookies and it didnt credit for me. I cleared cookies again and just took another so we will see what happens. I dont have any problems getting the surveys...just getting the credits which is odd....usually with SSI if you get the stars you get the credit. Hopefully they are just having some beginning gliches and they will be ok soon.

jnorth1007
09-02-2010, 10:43 PM
I spoke too soon. We decided to try and see if we could get the SSI2 to credit since the credit we got earlier was marked SSI1 even though we had gone through the SSI2 link. Well we got one and it went to the stars so we will see in a little while if I have gotten 7 surveys for the first time EVER! Cross your fingers and everything else you own!!!!

WOOOHOOOO! It posted. That means I got 7 surveys today and made 4.76. I think I have this SSI thing figured out. When you take the first one and it credits make sure that you clear cookies and check to see what the name of the credit says. If it says SSI then make sure you click on the SSI2 link to do the second one. (Even if you know you clicked on the SSI2 link the first time.) The links won't matter. Since you only get credit for each type once you have to make sure that you are clicking on the opposite link of what credited when you go to take the second one. I hope that makes sense! Good luck! :sunshine:

I took the SSI in the morning after clearing cookies, got credit and it says SSI in my account.....cleared cookies again before taking the SSI2 in the afternoon, finished it and got the star page and then that the survey was recorded...no credit on the SSI2. :confused: Maybe just a glitch but I didn't have any problem the day before doing it this way, I'm 100% positive that I clicked on the right links each time.

Right there with you, I took the SS1 during the day time at work and it credited no problem. Went home and had my husband take the SS2 at our house and no credit either this morning when I checked. It was a very interesting one also. I really like SSI surveys for the most part they are interesting. I'll try again today and see what happens. Oh and cookies were cleaned on both computers before we took them.

I did report the survey because it asked in teh begining if I was able to download software and I said no.....should have kicked me out then rather than make me spend time doing it only to record my information but not give me credit. and seriously......tracking information on my work computer?!?!??!?

I took SSI 1 in the morning yesterday and SSI2 much later in the evening and cleared cookies in between. I even tried twice for the SSI2 with no luck. It seems like everyone has different scenerios on how to get this to work. Shouldnt it work the same for everyone? I guess I dont understand why 1 day I get both no problem and the next day I cant get the SSI2 after doing it the same way besides waiting longer in between. I know once in a while we do get ones that dont credit but it seems for a few of us it was working one day and then it wasnt. It doesnt seem like it would be a problem on our end?

I know there hasn't been any kind of change in the coding. I wonder if it has to do with end pages still being in your CACHE and not just clearing cookies? So if you complete the same type of SSI survey and you get the same end page it is complicating things?

I have gotten credit a couple of times this week, but I usually don't have time to try two days in a row. I think I got it two days ago, but yesterday, I kept getting the "honesty" page with the flags each time I tried the second one, even though all my info was correct.

I received credit for both the SSI and SSI2 on 8/31(the test one) and 9/1. I received credit for the SSI yesterday and today, but the SSI2 did not credit either day. I've cleared cookies, ran CCleaner and all that and did complete the surveys like normal. All of my other surveys are crediting, so I'm not really sure. :confused: So to answer your question, I received credit for both the day we tested it and one other day, but nothing since then.

You should see credits for any of the MTC long surveys or SSI2 survey credits that you didn't get in the past week or so. There was an issue that was found and the manual credits should have all come through now so you might see several credits but they should be dated for the day you took the survey.

Please remember to be patient with the credits. The SSI do not credit instantly. They are ones that credit on the hour. But we can't credit them until the companies report back to us. Sometimes they don't report back for an hour or two. I just manually pushed the credits from the last hour (because I don't want to stay online until 11:05) to see if yours came through and I see that both of yours credited. If I hadn't pushed them, they would have credited at 11:05.
