I think you are really going to like it. :)

Effective immediately, Greenfield Surveys are going to post back hourly like all other surveys. I don't have a lot of information because it just all of a sudden happened. But it is definitely a welcomed change! We are still getting all of the quick programming changes needed done on our end. But hopefully by the end of the day, it will be smooth sailing!!

It depends what time you took it. I can't figure out what time they switched to the new postbacks. Looks like maybe around 8 or 9 this morning? If you took one before that, we might have to wait until tomorrow to get it. If you took it AFTER that, you should see your credit in the next few hours. Once we get it all tested and running right, they will be on the hour after that.

A little sticky transition because we weren't ready for it. But hopefully not too bad.

I think I took my survey before 8:00 a.m. so it looks like it will post tomorrow.

Tricia:
Maybe you can't answer this yet but are there any issues with doing DS and then Y2C(or SM)? Do we need to wait for DS to credit before doing Y2C? clear cookies in between?

Thanks.

You should be perfectly fine.

Things are slow going today. We had a few credits come in this morning and now it looks like they are doing some testing again. I'm sure it will all be sorted out by tomorrow though.

Okay. False alarm. We could have a few more days of the old tracking. But we also may only have one day. LOL Bottom line is that it will be within the next week that we see it all working. If you do NOT see hourly credits yet for a couple of days, don't worry.

But wouldn't it be fabulous if they had it done for the weekend???

i did a ds and finished it at around 2:40 but it did not credit at the top of the hour. is it safe to delete the cookies and do a sm survey or should i wait until the next hour? is this now going to track by cookies or by user id? any info you can give would be greatly appreciated. :thanks: my ds just credited. woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting....yesterday morning my DS from 3/10 and the one from 3/9 both credited before 10:30AM. Today I completed DS and then SM. SM has credited but not the DS; I guess maybe it might show up on Monday whilel all the kinks are worked out of the new system.

They are still working out the kinks for sure. We should see all of the "missing" credits from yesterday come in this morning. I may have to manually credit them. We'll see. But I am seeing a few come back on the hourly postbacks.

for those of us who took the GF yesterday and didn't get the hourly credit, it still hasn't credited by 1030am today, right? And because the kinks are still being worked out, today's wont' credit on the hour either?

I *think* all of yesterday's credits should now be posted. Either because you got credit on the hour yesterday, you got credit earlier this morning, or I just manually credited you.

i got credit for yesterday's DS, but not today's. i'm just grateful to GET a DS, lol.

It looks like we have gotten credit for maybe a third or half of the DS's from today. They have not officially launched the "real time" crediting, so I am guessing that we will not see the others until Monday. But I am still hoping that they will officially release the real-time tracking by the end of the day today!

Tricia, I have two credits for yesterday's date 3/10/11? I did take one yesterday and also one this morning that did not credit automatically...is one of them from the one I took this morning that you manually credited because it has yesterdays date, that's why I'm confused? :confused:

Hadn't read this thread and was completely shocked when my DS from this morning credited. Then came here to get the scoop.

But, yes, will GF still credit with user id or cookies? Do I need to clear cookies between DS and SM?

Thanks,

Clearly, none of us know the right answer, but mine have not credited the same day yet, and I've just cleared my cookies right after my normal DS has not credited after the 2nd hour prior to taking the other Greenfield survey. By doing so, I have not had any problems of my DS crediting the next day.

03-12-2011, 08:54 AM
do you guys normally clear cookies between DS and SM?? i've never done that and haven't had issues with either of them not crediting. I didn't clear the past 2 days either during this switch over and I did get the DS from yesterday, and both SM credited just fine. are we supposed to clear between DS and SM?

Good question, I don't clear between the two and have never had a problem but would like to know once the GF credits automatically since they will both credit the same day, wondering if it's a similar situation as the SSI surveys? Guess we'll have to see what happens.

I am going to try hard to get 5 surverys in today to qualify for the contest. Don't know if it will happen or not, or even if I will have the time, BUT, I DID get a GF survey this am....has NOT credited. Does anyone know if I can still use it toward the contest??

Yes, it will. I have gotten a GF yesterday and today and neither has credited yet. So they should be here Monday, but they would count.

tjrj1988
03-12-2011, 08:21 PM
I'm here to post a similar question. The DS I took Friday did credit almost immediately. But the DS I took today has not credited yet. Guess we'll wait until Monday. Tricia did mention something in the beginning of the thread about SR possibly having to "force" the credit thru?

re the DS/M02(SM) question-the M02(SM) did credit at the top of the hour and I DID NOT clear cookies between GF and SM today.

I got the congrats page this morning, so it looked normal to me....usually when mine doesn't take me back to the congrats page I don't get credit. I don't know why it does that but every once in a while it will happen to me and when it does I try for another.

I am definitely seeing a lot more of them coming in hourly than before. They still haven't given us the "official" word that it has started, but it looks like they are getting really close. Yesterday about 20% of our credits came in on the hour. Today we've already had 20% of our usual number post on the hour.

So don't be worried if you don't get credit on the hour today...we will probably still have some come in tomorrow morning. But also don't be surprised if you see it. :)
