I just got a really long survey about dairy products, then, when I thought I must be close to the end an Internal Error page.

GRRRR

http://survey8.greenfieldonline.com/wix/InternalError.htm?aspxerrorpath=/wix/p59807615.aspx

I did that one too, but I did get the congrats page. It was so long. Sorry you didn't get the credit you deserved. :computer:

one today about lowfat icecream novelties and after they got all of my answers - they said I didn't qualify.

Just wonder if these 2 companies are totally worth avoiding and not trying at all.


i just did that one last night, i wont know till monday if i get credit for it

Has anybody ever been paid for either a Ciao survey or a Goingo (sp?) survey? I went through a long Ciao survey that I thought I completed and then at the end, the final page was in a foreign language.

I've started 2 different Goingo surveys, one today about lowfat icecream novelties and after they got all of my answers - they said I didn't qualify.

Just wonder if these 2 companies are totally worth avoiding and not trying at all.

I did this one (lowfat ice cream) last night too, so won't know til Monday if it credits, but I did get the congrats and exceeded limits page, so I think it should be okay. We'll see.

1st time i've had this happen...

signed on today a few minutes ago & tried to take a survey.

Got message that I had exceeded my daily limit:confused:

Has this happened to anyone else (today or otherwise?)

That happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I tried to do a survey and got the message that I had exceeded my limit. I know I hadn't done a survey already for that day. Got credit for one the next day just the same!!:)

After several attempts at trying to even see if I qualify to take one, I got one on Ice Cream on a hot summer day . It was fun, but a tad bit long!
Normally, I never get one on Sundays so I was quite happy and would have completed it even it were on automobiles (talking about long and boring).

7/7 Yippieee!!!:cooldance:

Meaning that you could take another, or you did it before today but it didn't credit today?

I've done a Flat Earth one before, and it did credit, and today DH got a slightly different one (salty rather than sweet like I got before), and it won't let us take another survey...I don't count my surveys until they fully credit, but I have expectations that it will credit b/c we have exceeded our limit.

This is an OTX one that starts off about tv networks then asks about internet access and comcast. After answering 10-15 min worth of questions, the next screen took me back to the beginning. I answered one page just in case the next was different but no. I closed out and gave up. What a waste of time!

I have been stuck in a loop with this place all afternoon. I keep getting kicked out and when I click on Take Another Survey it goes back to OTX. THEN...it asks me a few questions and wants my dd (10) to answer questions and thing loads where an animated person talks to her. She answers a couple of questions and then it starts asking about travel..it asks a few questions and then it changes to video games...it asks a few questions about something else and then it kicks me out. This has happened several times now.
I am going to wait a couple of hours and then try again.

OTX survery starts with credit cards then financial services then travel then video games. An endless loop until it finally doesn't like your answers and says you don't qualify. I bet I've been on over 2 hrs.

OTX should be blown to the moon (can you tell I'm PMSing)

I got this survey twice while trying to qualify for one survey. I guess the second time was the charm as I got the Congrats screen and I am not able to take another survey. This survey was nasty, however. It looped around and around, then asked the same groups of questions over and over. If it weren't for the fact that I've had trouble getting surveys lately, I wouldn't have tried it the second time.:rolleyes:

Same here. I cycled in and out of the OTX surveys for 2 hours this afternoon. I never qualified and finally gave up. Many hours later I tried again and got a survey with 5 commercials for JCPenneys and Macy's. I usually don't do the surveys with videos because they take forever to load on my dial-up connection. This one took me 1 1/2 hours but hey I earned my .80 for the day! :cooldance:

I found it odd to suddenly be in the OTX loop again today, even though I successfully completed one of their surveys yesterday (and got credit). I, too, spent time after time going through their loop de loops and not qualifying. Then I was lucky enough to get one on breakfast cereal. It was short and easy and almost compensated for my frustration level with OTX. If I have to deal with OTX every day, I'm not sure I can continue doing surveys. Up until now, I've had fun....but they are taking the fun out of it and making it more like work. Ugh!:headache:

You were smart to just close it out!

Got that one yesterday and even though it kept repeating, I thought if I just stuck with it, I'd finish.... WRONG! At the end, after 20+ minutes it starting asking for demographics and threw me out saying I didn't qualify :computer: I was able to get another one, though, which did credit so I'm 100% so far for Oct. :cooldance:

At least it wasn't me that was stuck in OTX h***! I never did qualify yesterday for another survey and today I just did one for flat earth veggie snacks that I completed, gave them all my information, and got the dreaded you didn't qualify.

Honestly Tricia, I'm not blaming you at all but I'm getting really tired of wasting 20 mins or more just to find I don't qualify. It seems to be happening more frequently again, at least to me. :(

Having griped, I just got a short one on invisalign :)

Yesterday it was the OTX loop that I finally gave up on. Today, I did a complete survey for those flat earth veggie chips and was told I didn't qualify. I resent giving the survey company all my information and answering a lot of their questions then being told I don't qualify. It seems like fraud and cheating to me.

I'm not mad at you Tricia, just at those companies!

I had the same problem. First I got the runaround from OTX for about 5 rounds. Then got the iced tea survey. Did not take me back to SR. Then the next survey was on frozen appetizers/snacks. This survey was probably 50 pages long with multiple questions. I get sent to the SR page, but it says "Sorry. You did not qualify". Are they kidding me? Those 2 surveys alone took over an hour. I was finally able to get a survey in, but don't ask me what it was about. I am completely burned out on surveys today. Uggghhh.

I have only been a member of SR since August, but I have done a survey almost every day since I became a member. Sometimes it is hard to qualify, but I do not remember having as frustrating a time as recently. Between the OTX surveys (yes, 1 did credit for me, but I got lucky - the rest I didn't qualify for, and there were many) and the surveys that go on and on, then tell you they don't credit, I think Greenfield needs to look at what is being offered. It seems like everyone's frustration level is at max!:computer:

I kept circling around the OXT ones as well. They weren't loading, I couldn't get back to SR and kept having to close my browser and then go back into SR. VERY frustrating, but my persistence paid off and I got a super easy, fast one for starting your own business. About 1 minute, so fast I could hardly believe it. Have no idea where that came from, but I was mighty glad to get one that took me back to the congrats page. Surveys took my whole evening tonight and now it's time to go to bed!

The last two days have been a nightmare between the OTX run around and the ice tea survey fiasco. I should have known better than to try the ice tea one again. I remember it from last time but I was so happy to not get an OTX survey that I went ahead with it. Thirty minutes later it still didn't take me back to SR. My DH finally got one on starting your own business that lasted five minutes.
Any more days like these and I'm going to have to take a break from the surveys.

Spent 10 minutes doing an OTX one that was on sports... MLB, NHL, NFL, etc. Like so many others, I have been burned by OTX, so I was suspicious.... and sure enough, it began asking me totally unrelated questions about headaches, arthritis, etc., then booted me out. :computer:

Anyway, I went back in and it immediately sent me to 2 more OTX surveys... I may be a slow learner, but I couldn't click out of there fast enough! :rotfl:

[QUOTE=Lisaj68;59197]I just spent a good 10 minutes on a businessowners type of survey, about financial matters. Got 40% complete and then told me I didn't qualify. Of course, they got all of the info they needed.

I got that same one and it kicked me out about 40% of the way through also. When I told them who I had my business insurance with!


Same thing happened to me today!

It's so obvious the OTX ones are fraudulent, why can't they just be blocked by SR? Are they coming thru Greenfield? I'm not sure how this all works but it seems like OTX should be banned.

Can anyone give insite?

I have gotten nothing but OTX today. And not ONE has gone through after answering questions. Glad to know it's not just me.

I even cleared cookies. Still getting them. :(

I'm going to bypass them even if it means not getting a survey today! Thanks for the heads up.


ETA I finally got a Greenfield one about cars. They are out there......just have to be persistent.

Good luck everyone.

They are coming through Greenfield not SR so SR can't block them. The only thing Tricia can do is tell Greenfield about them.

Why didn't I pay attention to the complaints about the ice tea - I just did it, it wasn't that bad so I thought why not. Why not is because it doesn't go back to SR and I can try for another survey!

If you should get a survey that takes you to another site for a cleaning your home panel, this survey will not take you back to SR for credit. However, when you try to access another survey, you get the "you've exceeded the daily survey limit" page. So, I'm assuming this survey will credit.

I didn't qualify for the underware one either. I guess this butt is too fat!

I did get a Neilson one. They said I would watch a brief show. It was a full episode of How I met your mother with commericals. It was forever long. After I answered questions about this show, they showed me some more commericals. I did get back to SR in the end but I wanted to warn you guys that it took me more then 45 min. It was definitely closer to an hour. An the episode was pretty cute.

I think there may be more than one survey for KFC, mine took about 20 minutes, had to answer questions, then watch a video, then answer more questions...which were basically all the same questions, just "do you feel diferently now after seeing video" answers.

It was easy, but long. It finished/exceeded limit so I'm not complaining!

I think I figured out the OTX business. I think it asks you many different questions trying to qualify for different surveys, instead of one survey at a time. This makes it quite annoying, but I have gotten two to credit so far. Even knowing this, I still cringe whenever I see OTX come up.

Were you going super-slow? Through this thread we've figured out that they really pay attention to how fast you are going, and if you are determined to have gone too fast, they don't believe that you thought about the questions, and therefore your answers are invalid.

Today, I did 2 survey's. One I spent another 15 minutes on different kinds of drinks, soda, sport drinks, coffee drinks. It makes me so angry when I answer all these questions and then I get, "sorry you don't qualify". I'm sure they don't throw out my answers. I remember starting it at 10:30 and when I looked up it was 10:45 a.m. when I got thrown off.

I started another one and it threw me off after 5 minutes. It was for cars. It didn't like my location.

Don't do one on nuts you warm up in the microwave. I did the whole thing. It asked the classification questions at the end. It thanked me and then took me back to SR to day "it appeared you didn't qualify for the survey". It took me 20 min. too:(


I did that one and did get credit.

I hate to finish a whole survey then get booted out.

I was doing a survey on 'Work Clothes" last night...

It got to a point where it kept looping. When I finished the page and hit next; it told me I had already completed a page and not to hit my back button. Needless to say I had to exit out as it would not go to the next page. 35 minutes of my life I will never get back.

It didn't work for me. It said I completed the survey (after a LONG time) and said click here to go back or click here to take another survey. I clicked for the next survey, and it started a new one. Never did go back to the SR page.

The next three tries were all Ciao surveys (like the watch was), so I closed out of them. Finally did get one today (not Ciao) that took me back to SR!

Yes, I got an exceeded msg. It was a survey about how I felt about my manager/superior. Really fast. I did keep getting what I think was the watch survey everyone was posting about, it was super slow loading. I just kept closing out and trying again. I think it tried to give me that about 8-10 times? Then I unchecked some stuff in my demos and it went to the other survey. Good luck, patience is a virtue :sunshine2: Patience with daily surveys puts a person in the running for sainthood!!!!!

This was worse than any OTX ever! I wanting them to boot me!:computer:
First, I shouldn't have qualified because I answered it honestly, but since it kept going, I said well, since my son wear unifroms to work maybe I could go ahead and complete it. It was on Uniforms and Work Clothes. It took almost two hours to complete! I stayed in it because I just wanted to get my survey in, but I swear that was the hardest credits I've earned on SR since I've been a member. My wrists are actually hurting from it! After it asked a million questions on work clothes, it started asking me about my hobbies, then what I watch on TV, then what I listen to on the radio, then what magazines I read!!!!!:computer: :computer:

When we listened to that HUGE thing about windows and then there was nowhere to go, we nearly cried.

I got that one this morning (I have a PC). The "next" button finally does come up after that REEEAALLLLLYYYY long video on windows. When one of the next questions asked what I didn't like about the ad, I typed "too long!" LOL. I finally completed it and got the congrats screen from SR so I'm assuming it will credit. Guess I should try to do another just to make sure I get the "exceeded daily limit" message.

Aren't surveys based on a 24 hour day, as opposed to one a day? So if you do one at 5:00 on day 1, you can't day another until after 5:00 on day 2?

It was changed recently by greenfield (survey company) so that your day is a calendar day not a 24 hour day. I think someone has said the "day" resets around 3 or 4 am. So if you do one at 10 am today then tomorrow it will reset overnight and you can do one at 9am if you want.

Nope they used to be, but now its per day i think the day switches over at either 12:00am Eastern or Pacific I do not remember which....

So for example you could do a survey at say 5:00PM today and then do one tomorrow at say 6:00AM...

Last night I know it was late when I got my survey, and here it is again almost midnight and I'm finally able to get in. I bet tomorrow morning i'll get hte exceed limit again. I'm hoping it's just something that happened and maybe they used an old backup that's throwing me off. I didn't start having this problem until Thursday.

I just got shafted by an incredibly long coffee survey from Synovate. I worked on it about 30 minutes and was not to 50% yet, then was told there was a problem with my ID or something like that. It was one of the really obnoxious ones that had 20 or 30 questions a page and you had to rate each of the seven places on them. It also had quality-control questions like "gives you $100 with every order." Really annoying. I don't even time to fool with another one now.

I tried a survey tonight before going to bed. It was around midnight eastern time and it was on Christmas songs. They want you to listen to 579!!! snippets of Christmas songs and answer three questions on each one that you have heard before!!!!! It was supposed to take an hour and a half to listen to the songs. I did 10 minutes of it just because I was curious to hear some of the songs and it crapped out on song 27. Soo, I'm guessing that this can't possibly be a good use of your time since it takes forever and you might get to song 500 only to have it crap out. Not to mention the fact that I'm guessing it would take two hours minimum for only .80. This could very possibly be the ultimate survey to avoid. You will be there until Christmas just finishing it.:christmas:

[QUOTE=belbook;65872]My dh got through that one in about 10 min. I was going to list that as a good survey. I just did one on HDTVs that I thought I had gotten through then I got the "sorry" message. I feel cheated when they get my info and won't give me credit.[/QUOTE

My DH is striking out lately. Last night he got booted from the printer survey and tonight he got booted from the HDTV survey after answering several pages of questions. I agree with you on feeling cheated after answering the questions. Seems like we've been getting quite a few that get the info they need and then boot you out.

I tried a survey tonight before going to bed. It was around midnight eastern time and it was on Christmas songs. They want you to listen to 579!!! snippets of Christmas songs and answer three questions on each one that you have heard before!!!!! It was supposed to take an hour and a half to listen to the songs. I did 10 minutes of it just because I was curious to hear some of the songs and it crapped out on song 27. Soo, I'm guessing that this can't possibly be a good use of your time since it takes forever and you might get to song 500 only to have it crap out.

OMG :eek: I cannot believe they expect people to listen to 500 songs and answer 3 questions on each!!!

I had one last night that I started around 10pm on healthy energy drinks and I got to a page where they had oh 30-40 different types of ingredient mixes listed and gave up. I was suppose to rank each one on a scale of 1-10. I was going to do it but some of the words they were using were over my head and I didn't have enough brain power to sift through it all.

I got a super easy one last night on Outback steakhouse. No credit yet, but it did bring me back to the SR page with the Congrats notice.

Yikes! I just got the Christmas song survey too! 579 songs and 3 questions - I don't think so. Maybe if it paid more than .80!!:rotfl: It should pay atleast $8.00. I got to song number 30 before I decided to call it quits.

I just got this same one, as soon as it told me it was going to take me 2 hours I got out of it, sorry but that is not worth 80 cents. Besides who has 2 hours to just sit and do that survey, I have Disney planning to do.

Has anyone been able to get a survey today? I can't even get pass the first page to see if I qualify. I couldn't get one on yesterday either. It kept telling me I've exceeded my limit" and I hadn't even taken one. I only need 3 more for the 25, but at this rate I'm afraid I'm not going to get it. :(

I finally got one and got through it. Tried 3 or 4 times today though, attempting multiple times each go around. I got to the page where you check off your different qualifications, but there would only be like 2 or 3 options to pick from and then there weren't any surveys. I guess that's better than getting the exceeded limit message, but the end result was the same.

I'm having survey issues and now absolutely nothing is crediting either :(

Same for me. They need to come up with more than .80 for 2 hours of my time.
