I think dh just completed the most insane survey yet. It was about ink pens. Note that I said *Ink Pens*. You'll need this tidbit of info in a bit.

Some of the statements that dh had to rank included "A woman's place is in the home", "The only reason to drink is to get drunk" and the most random one . . . "Fresh vegetables are better than frozen" :rotfl:

The survey companies have officially lost their minds.

My husband got that one a few days ago too. :rotfl: He was like wth? as he was answering the questions. I don't get why they ask you in so many of the surveys to imagine something inanimate is a person and say what kind of personality or whatever it'd have. Pretty stupid IMO. But hey, $.80 is $.80, right? :)

You guys are getting some pretty silly surveys. :)

And here I've been amused for 24 hours by actually completing the Hostess survey, since I haven't eaten anything from that company in....oh gosh HOW long have I been vegetarian? 16 years? (they allow themselves the "out" in their ingredient list to use beef fat) And I answered honestly, too, but I guess they just wanted the opinion of people who haven't purchased the product in 12 months or more. :confused: Uh, yeah, a change in wording on how long the product is good...THAT will bring me back to the Hostess fold. :p

Geez!!!!! A few times today I tried to take surveys and when the first question was "Do you agree to give honest answers, blah, blah, blah" I clicked on "Yes, I agree to provide honest answers....." Guess what???? I was instantly disqualified!!! Do they want us to lie? Or is this just a fluky survey? I wish I paid attention to http address so I could have cut and pasted it.

I guess I should be happy they don't wait after 20 minutes to tell me I'm disqualified, I just think it's funny that agreeing to provide honest answers is the reason I'm being disqualified! :rotfl: :rotfl:

Of course, I don't find not being able to take a survey as funny. Maybe I should answer the opposite the next time I get this and see what happens! lol

Something I noticed on that sort of survey!

They have one page where you have to click on BOTH "radio buttons", where one says "I promise to answer honestly", and the other says "I promise to read thoroughly".

But there's ANOTHER page that looks almost exactly the same, even with one statement on top of the other, BUT the first statement is "I agree to answer honestly and read thoroughly", and the other statement is "I do NOT agree to answer honestly and read thoroughly".

On that one, if you click along like you think it is (and when I say "you" I soooo mean "I") the other one, the first radio button gets "unclicked", and you will send it through saying that you do not agree. OOPS!

So it's possible, if you have gotten into a groove with those pages like I had, that you meant to click both, but instead clicked just the one negative statement.

Or they messed up. Or want liars. :p

I got turned down for that one and now I am also getting the message that says there are no surveys for me.

I guess no bonus for me this month since I have only ever gotten it to let me take 2 surveys so far all month.

Remember to keep trying throughout the day! That message doesn't mean you're done for the day, it's just a momentary thing, or hourly, or half day...or maybe all day, but it doesn't necessarily mean all day. I try all day, and despite that message, if I wait a bit there'll be another chance, especially if I have DH use his demographics to try for a survey.

After reading DH the questions on a survey about underarm "product", and having to repeat the phrase many times, I never EVER (after typing this) want to hear or think of the phrase "underarm product fragrance" again.

Gag.

But it seems to have gone through successfully, despite taking a several hour break after starting it and finishing it! cross fingers and toes.

Anyone official know the answer to this? If a survey is completed at 10 or 11 pm Pacific time, is that counted in Eastern time? I know the scratchoff game is done on Eastern time but I hadn't experienced that with the survey yet.

Does anyone officially know?

I just did the stupidist survey (and didn't qualify). It asked you questions about food products, frozen dinners, canned soups, convenience type foods. The problem was that some of the questions didn't have a choice that fit my honest answer. For example - you had to put whether you purchased, consumered or served a product but there was no space to say you didn't buy it. Another question asked which brand would you NOT buy but since I would have bought them all, I didn't answer. It required an answer so I choose my least favorite.

I do believe that these are Eastern time as well.

Are there no surveys available today? I only got through to the survey on Mevican food and then was disqualified because I had to choose a product that I would never serve to my family even though I would use all of them. No one else in my family has qualified today. They are redirected back to the "There are no surveys available for you today."

Hey, that means I *could* go to sleep early tonight, since doing one at 11pm pacific time would be the same as doing one in the morning!

kayjo and belbook, I hate those poorly designed surveys! A survey can be difficult to properly design so it makes sense, but if it's their job, they should know how to do it! :computer:

Well, I was finally able to get a survey. After multiple questions about medical facilities in my area, the last question they asked me was for the names of all household members and my address. WTF? Why would they need my address? I shouldn't have to give out that information for an anonymous survey. So, I closed out without finishing it. I wasted about 20 minutes for nothing. I wish they had asked me that up front. I would have just moved on. Oh well. I'm off to try and qualify for another one. Wish me luck.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to qualify for surveys?

I am wondering what demographics the people are who qualify every day - or how many hours they spend.

I have tried clearing all my temp internet files, I have tried using my laptop rather than my PC, nothing works. On Sunday, I tried about 10 times until it told me there were no surveys left for me to try. Several of these asked about 10 questions before dumping me and telling me I did not qualify.

Yesterday and today I only had time to try 5 or 6 each day, but still - nothing. Boy is this frustrating.

Please - I will appreciate any help.

The only suggestion I have, is to try for a survey as early in the morning as possible. That seems to work the best for me. I think as the day goes on, a lot of the surveys have filled their quota and that is why I get rejected half the time.

Do NOT do the survey with cleaning products. "You are just the type of person we are looking for to complete our survey." I think it was by hyperspex or something. It was through Greenfield. It thankfully was not a very long survey, only about 15 minutes, but I went all the way through the survey, even provided feedback comments, and then it said something like....Thank you for your valuable opinions. This survey is now closed!

That is the second time that has happened to me!!!! I am ripped!

Is there anyone else in your household who can do a survey? If I can't get one, I usually get my husband to do one. I have to ask very nicely but one of the times he did one he was asked about soccer teams which he loves so I try to remind him of that.

I just took a really neat survey about of all things the New Orleans Saints and the New Orleans Hornets. It was great since I am a fan of both teams being from Louisiana and living 40 miles from New Orleans. It was truly a great survey. I think they would have tailored it to other teams because they gave you a list of cities to start of and you got to chose if you lived near any of them. If you get this one it will be about professional sports, not very long and questioning the leadership of the organization of the teams. Loved it!

I think I had one like that before, though maybe not the same one. It gave me a list of cities and I picked Green Bay as the one we lived closest to. It was good because even though I'm not a big sports fan, it asked for my IMPRESSIONS of the team and its fans and leaders. Definitely a good one!

I ran into a bad survey tonight. It was about financial services with Phoenix Marketing International. I had to look at a couple of ads and then answer questions about those ads. So, I am on the third ad for HSBC Premier. I look at the ad, and then I am supposed to click yes or no if I was able to view/hear the ad. I clicked yes and then clicked the next screen button. On the next screen I got this message:

"Please take a moment to help us identify the cause of the problem by clicking here to email us a description of the problem."

I don't know why I got this message, I wasn't having a problem.

But I can't NOT have one, and well if I don't qualify, SOMEONE in my house has to?!! :D He was so psyched about that one because not only does he have (notice I said "he") a dog, but he's 100% in charge of the flea/tick vet stuff.

No matter what I did I couldn't get one yesterday either. My MIL was finally able to get in on one today (couldn't for myself or DH at all). But she's a very specific demographic so I guess that's what they were looking for. Hopefully they will add a bunch of new surveys tomorrow.

I've been trying since 7:00am about every 15 minutes and it keeps saying that there are no surveys available and I keep changing the info between family members and still nothing....this is so frustrating. I once had a chance at the bonus $5 but at this rate I don't think I'll make it now!! :( :(

I finally got into one (well, boyfriend did) we were proceeding merrily along and suddenly got "service unavailable" and that was the end of that!


:computer: GRRRRRRR!!!!!

and now it's back to no surveys available. I'm 1 away from the first bonus tier :( (which I know is only $1, but I need all the help I can get - I have the smallest amount earned in my siggy by far!)

EDIT: I pasted the link of the survey from the last page I had been able to use and it let me complete and took me back to SR where I was still logged in, but I don't know if it'll actually credit me for it? *shrug* I guess I can try to take another survey and see if it gives me the "you've done as many as you can today" since that usually means it gave you credit ...

there's basically no way for me to make super member, but I'm pushing as hard as I can anyways!

I completed a 20 minute survey on deoderants. At the end, I was taken back to Sunshine and given the "It appears you did not qualify" message.

I've really lost my touch on surveys. Couldn't get anyone qualified this weekend, and this is the second time in a week I've completed one and not got credit (at least I'm assuming no credit for this one).

I still love Sunshine Rewards, though!:)

I think they load new ones on Mondays and some of the techs are on the West Coast. So I would give it a couple of hours. It seems like we start seeing more surveys later on Mondays...then lots on Tuesdays...then peak on Wednesday or Thursday.

OK I have nothing to do with surveys. But I think y'all should give us a few more hours of sleep before trying to snare all the surveys. :rotfl:

On the other hand, I snake leprechaun scratch-off opportunities before going to bed, before you guys get up, so I guess we're even (chance for 3 cents vs 80 cents? :p )

I just did a survey this am (on fast food places) when I finished the survey it brought me back to SR. But I just read the rules under the Greenfield banner and it states that: If we do not receive credit for you for a particular survey automatically, Greenfield is unable to track your participation in any way. Are we suppose to get credit right away?? I always thought that we go it the next day or so?? I'm once again :confused: !!



These are the Rules: Click on the banner above to fill out the "qualifying" information. If after you have filled out the qualifying information you are selected to take a survey, you will be rewarded .80 for filling out the survey completely. Please note that we are unable to trace the surveys beyond what Greenfield credits us for. If we do not receive credit for you for a particular survey automatically, Greenfield is unable to track your participation in any way. Do not request credit as we are unable to track beyond what we receive from them. If you are not accepted for the initial survey but then redirected to "more surveys" that are not Greenfield surveys, we will not receive credit for those. You can only complete a survey once every 24 hours, but you may try as many times in a day as it takes to get accepted.

My credits usually show up the next day, sometimes 2 over the weekend. I think, not sure though! that it credits automatically, but Tricia has to apply them to us, therefore the day's lag.

I just went through a long one on fast food as well. It said I had completed the survey, but it did not take me back to SR. I went back to SR, and it said there are no more surveys for me. I guess I won't get credit for my time. :(

I hit my 25 this morning YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On another note I too haven't been able to get a survey today. They just keep giving me the no surveys available message. I also got that message all day on the 24th. That was the only day I wasn't able to get one at all. But, I was able to make lemonade out of lemons LOL because it meant I could skip the day and get back to my 8am survey taking. Of course now that is off again because I cant get one today LOL. I guess I could lay off since I hit the prize but I really wanted to make surveys for the whole month and I love the extra .80 a day. Off to try again.

06-26-2007, 10:57 AM
I haven't been able to get in to one since Thursday night either. Dh did one for me that started around 11:55pm on Friday because there were no surveys for me.

I tried all weekend with the different demographics of people that were over just to see if anything would open up a survey (If they had qualified, I'm sure my MIL or FIL would love taking a survey so I could earn .80 - lol) but it was the same "no surveys for you" message too. And it was a range of ages and incomes.

I was working so hard for those 25 surveys. Hopefully I'll get one more so I can at least hit the 20 survey mark.

I finally got in one today, after getting rejected from literally 6 surveys for answering that I would be honest!:rotfl: maybe I should have told them I'd be dishonest and see if they'd let me take the survey then!

At least I managed to get to my 10, so that's an extra $1 ... I didn't get into the daily surveys quick enough anyways, the other 2 tiers were mathematically impossible with the number of days left in the month!

lurkyloo
06-26-2007, 12:11 PM
Hey, Tricia, I really think there's something wrong over at Greenfield. This is Day 2 (or Day 5 for some of us!) that there have simply been NO surveys available.

In my time as a Sunshine Rewards member, I have never had such trouble getting in to just *try* to qualify for a survey. And yet the moment there's a survey contest up, suddenly there are no surveys to take. Seems awfully unfair. :(

I know... I know... I should just pay myself the $5... :p

For the last 3 days I have also gotten the "No surveys available at this time" message. So, I just changed the e-mail address I was using and Wham-o, magically I can now get a survey. When they track your survey stats, it is by user id and not e-mail address. So, this is a simple change that seems to work for me. I hope this helps someone else. I know how frustrating it is to get that message over and over and over again.

I did a survey today about automobiles. I answered all the questions and at the end was told I qualified to partcipate in a year long survey by automakers. It also mentioned that there was no penalty if I did not want to participate. I declined, they asked why and I said it was too long to be involved in a survey. The next page said Thank you for your interest that was our last question click next, but when you click the next button you get an error page not found.

http://www.gongos.com/GP6421/term.asp

There was also this link (but it also goes to an error page not found)

If you have any questions or concerns about this survey, please click email support@thinkaction.com.

SO I am guessing I will not get the credit. It is aggravating to give them answers and info and then get dumped

I did the same survey and agreed to do the study and it took me to the end of the survey and then went black and when I went back to the SR site I was able to take another survey so Im sure the first one wont credit. Anyone who gets the automobile one exit out fast LOL cause it is awful.

I did the auto survey back in March and elected to join the community. It really doesn't take much time to log in once a week and answer the survey or dialogue. They pay in Amazon GCs and I've earned two $10. They recently changed their payout schedule and revised the point system for GCs due to community feedback. It now takes less points to get the GCs.
BTW...when I took that survey I did not get credit at SR. It never took me back to the "Congratulations" screen.

I'm SO frustrated. The last day I was able to get a survey was 6/22!!! Now I can't even get past the initial questions with my info or DH's.

I don't get it. I used to qualify all the time. Is it because of the contest? Are there more people doing surveys so there are fewer surveys to go around? :confused:

It's already too late for me to qualify for a higher bonus (I did make it to 10!)...but, gosh, the .80 would be nice too!

I know there is another website offering 1.00 a survey from the same people so I think they are spread to thin.

SunshineGirl
06-27-2007, 01:52 PM
I also wonder if it might have something to do with a new system they are about to put into place. They are working really hard on a totally new router. It's possible that they are either 1) spending more time/effort on that than adding new surveys, or 2) waiting to add more surveys after they launch the new router.

I tried everyone in the family yesterday, including using their emails and didn't get a survey. Since I've got young males, this really surprises me. I've also tried (for me) from work with no luck. I got started several times and twice got one for pain relievers labeled "Tylenol" that messed up at the same place in the middle.

When the contest started, I was sure I would get 25. After a couple of weekends, I decided I would be happy with 20. Now, I'm stalled at 17 and can't imagine getting the one each day I need to get there. :computer:

I tried all day yesterday - I had no idea you could do it with a different email address...sigh. I got into the tylenol one which was a nightmare and stalled half way into the survey. I got a survey for Saturday the 23rd and it said completed successfully but didn't get credit? Has that happened to anyone else?

When will I learn, I need to come here first before doing a survey. I got the tylenol one and man was that a pain in the a$$!! It took me forever to figure out how to get the shopping cart to work. Then endless questions about mini prescriptions. Took 40 minutes to get through it. But I finally did. Wow, I really worked for my .80 today.

I got this same survey this morning and man oh man....it was a lot of work, confusing at times too, thought I would never get to the end and at one point I almost clicked off because I just couldn't understand how they wanted me to answer???

This has been so frustrating. I've been trying at various times to get a survey and since the weekend, most of what I get is no survey available for you. I've even had dh try and he got one that went through and one that didn't accept him. I was zipping along, getting one almost every day, now I seem to stopped at 19. How disappointing after doing so well the first 22 days of the month (I did have several days that I wasn't available to do surveys).

I got the tylenol one this morning too. :computer: It was one of the worse I think I've taken. Took forever, was insanely tideous and extremely boring. I would have clicked out of it but I needed this one to make 25. I'd strongly suggest clicking out of that one before you start if you get it, unless you really need it like I did. :)

You can't have a pop up blocker on...same thing happened to me, turned it off, then it popped up, then the continue was able to be clicked. And ditto, I kept thinking, this HAS to be the last page. I've never seen so many darn drop down boxes!

Oh I'm so sorry you got this one. People were talking about it a few pages ago, and I had JUST seen the discussion when I got it, so I just closed right out of that page. Sorry. :(



I tried throughout the day, just big fat nothings. Actually I think I got INTO some today, but wasn't qualified. I'm at 19 and there's what, 2 days left? Whimper.


"And it was a doozy on Advil/Aleve caplets....lasted FOREVER"

Oh man I got that one the other day. What's funny about the pain reliever ones is, when they ask if I use "other", I'll click that if it allows multiple selections, and all the while I'm thinking "yeah, 'other', homeopathic tablets and arnica cream are my mainstay, as are SalonPas capsaicin patches for a few cents each, but you don't want to hear THAT, do you, survey people?" ha ha. I answer honestly because I do occasionally take the mainstream stuff, I don't lie, but the "other" choice gets far more actual use than what they are really "getting at".

By the way, does anyone ever feel like some of these surveys are more like paid advertisements, rather than soemthing that's actually helping a company make a product or market a product? Like they actually ARE the marketing? :o Call me crazy, but I start to feel like that when, after ads with the product blacked out and I've answered questions, they say "by the way, that ad was for xyz product"...

On the other side, doing a survey the other day, I just had NOT seen on television any of the ads they showed (might have been the pain reliever one), and answered in that way. After the watching ads part was over, and I'd said I hadn't seen them other than in the survey, the survey had a question that was something like "do you watch TV at all?" :rotfl:


Obviously it's late and I'm blathering. Morning, all you easterners! G'night all you west coasters. :p

I think the survey company is purposely blocking the people who do lots of surveys... they were using our email address to track and block us. (why else did the switching email addresses work?) and now they have found another way... maybe our alternate email addresses are on the block list, or maybe they track us by ip or cookie, or something else...

I was so angry when I first changed my email address and got a survey... I qualify for so few surveys as it is, I answer them all truthfully, even though I know I would get more surveys if I gave them the answers they wanted. Why was I know presented with the chance of qualifing for a survey?

I think you are just being impatient :) I don't think the survey page has been finalized for June surveys and the one you did on Friday when it credits monday will count for june.

I have noticed that if I put in the random dot on my gmail account it will sometimes trigger surveys to appear. I also find that males are more needed right now than females so that is playing a part in the lack of surveys. I don't think its just a SR or SR email issue as some of my other sites are having the same problems/complaints.

I agree with m 'n c. The weekend surveys will credit Monday once the Greenfield person contacts Tricia. I've re-learned this SEVERAL times. :) DH works over the weekends so I get very confused as to which day it is, since The Friday is OUR Monday. :)

Tried 15 times today between me and DH and no go. I received the same message. The strange thing is DH would get to the first page and click on next and be told he did not qualify.

So for giggles I used a different email address that I have and sure enough, I went through about 6 surveys before I got the "no surveys" message. Clearly "they" are blocking us out by email address.

Well IF they are doing that it would be silly because they get paid for people to take surveys not to NOT take them LOL. I think that part of the issue is that it is end of the month and a weekend. I was able to take 29 surveys last month and used the same email address for all except the last 5 days when I started changing it up to get surveys. We really have to play by their rules and we don't have any control over who gets surveys. Our only recourse is to report bad survey issues and for Tricia to speak to the rep and let them know the issues we are having with getting surveys. This doesn't mean that they will do anything about it. I haven't been able to get a survey since Friday either and I got one everyday except one all the way up until Friday. Let's wait until Tuesday when the majority of the new surveys start to show up. I know it is frustrating but lets remember it free money and its supposed to be somewhat enjoyable trying to earn it. If it was THAT easy everyone in the world would catch on and we would really never get a survey :rotfl:

This is now like the 4th day I cannot get. I hav tried different e-mails, as I have 3 and my Dh has 1. It really is bumming me out. I like the 80 cents a day, and I like the extra bonus. :(

The Tylenol one did me the same way.

Thanks to everyone for posting about the Tylenol one. It's so hard these days getting a survey that I was going to take that one until I remembered all the posts about it. I just exited it and luckily I got another one.

I have only managed to take 2 surveys in the past 2 weeks but not for lack of trying! Talk about frustrating!!! :(

I also had to try alternate email addresses and the 2 that finally let us take it...well, dh took 1 and my little 15 year old ex-step sis had to take the other. If it continues to go like this for the entire month then many of us will not make much on the extra survey bonuses.

I completed my 20th survey on Saturday June 30th. (Actually my 21st, but there was another one I didn't get credit for.) It was the office supply one where they will contact you every once in a while to participate. At the end, it did not take me back to SR. But, when I tried to do another survey the SR page told me I had reached my survey limit. As of today, July 2nd I have not received credit and sit at 19 completed. I copied the URL of the last page of the office supply survey. Is there any way to get credit for it? I hate to miss out on my $2 bonus. Thanks!

I've been getting this message for three days as soon as I click to begin a survey..I've never get ANY quesitons:

There are no surveys at this point of time for which you qualify. We again thank you for your interest and time and hope to see you soon.

I see you mention different emails. If I use a different one will I still get credit with SR? That's not how it's tracked?

Survey credits from Fri, Sat and Sun have not posted yet. It is usually late morning or early afternoon before they post depending on when the person at the survey place uploads the credits. That would be why you haven't seen credit yet. Unfortunately if something happens where you don't get credit once the credits have come in there really isnt anything we can do to get the credits since we can't track the surveys by user and neither can they. If you received the message that you reached your limit there shouldn't be any reason you wont see the credit when they come in today.

You can use any email address you want for the surveys and offers because you credits for both are track by userid not email address. HTH! :sunshine2:

The credit for weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) surveys won't show up until sometime on Monday (today). I'm not sure if the surveys have been creditted for the weekend yet today, but I'm guessing not since she usually posts when she is done.

I've been in the no survey black hole for at least 4 days now. I've never even gotten to the congratulations screen. I'll try 3 or 4 a day spend 10 min or so on the survey and be told sorry thanks anyway. I've never received a credit for a survey What am I doing wrong?

You have never recieved a credit for ANY survey or haven't received credit for any surveys this weekend?
