I was doing a survey with commercials, and suddenly firefox said it couldn't connect with the server, so kaput went that survey.:computer: Then I got one later that was about autos, and joining an online community, which of course, didn't take me back to SR. Tried again, got one about faucets, but then it said it would be an hour survey that required internet explorer and I happened to be using Firefox, so pbbthh on that one too. And naturally, no more surveys available right now - so, later I guess!!:)

I started a survey that I think was the same as the one above. The commercials I got through were about toothpaste, a camera and a cola soft drink, and then it froze and closed out my IE. Tried to go back in and take another DS and it won't let me. I'll try again later. Hopefully, i'm not locked out for today. If so, no SM survey for me either.:(

What is the deal with GF's quality control??!! I take a long time to answer even the very simple questions about age, gender, etc - longer to answer the longer qualification questions, and still get the quality control message - no surveys available.
I got booted several times today, even tho I took an extended amount of time answering questions. I even got booted after I clicked a button to preload videos, and waited a little while to be sure it was all ready. Then I clicked continue - and got the no surveys available! So what is the deal? Why can't I seem to satisfy GF's quality control?! :headache:
Also, got kicked out of a survey; and 2 surveys later got the exact same questions, which I answered the exact same way, and got the exact same result - no surveys available.
I usually manage to get surveys eventually, so I know I don't have a great deal of room to complain, and I am not really stressed. Nonetheless, this is a wee bit annoying!

I thought there were safe guards with GF getting the same DS survey twice. Last night I got the exact same survey that I got Saturday night as my regular survey (not SM), the root beer one. I had trouble with the pages loading the first time but got through it and then the congrats page. Same thing last night. When it started I thought for sure it must be one of those that starts out the same but then ends up to be different, but I went far enough to know it was the same one, then closed it. It must have been a glitch and has never happened before since the big survey lock out. I use the exact same demographics and email every single time. Has this happened to anyone else?

i didn't think gf was allowed to do that if you use the same email address and same demos. as you said maybe it was just a glitch in their system. i have been trying since early this morning to get a ds without much luck. i did get into one about shopping and about halfway thru it i got booted out saying there were no surveys i qualify for. can you imagine being booted out of a shopping survey (i love to shop)?:confused: now there is only one option and i don't qualify for it and when i check none of the above i get the line about no new surveys available - try again tomorrow. hopefully gf will add more new surveys as the day goes on. everyone on sr and the forum have a wonderful day.:sunshine:

I came to check on the shopping store one. I bet I spent 15 minutes than said I didn't qualify.

it's nice to know that i wasn't the only one who got booted out of the shopping survey. it makes you kinda wonder what gf was looking for and why it would let you answer at least half of the questions before kicking you out. well g/f we can all keep trying and hopefully we will get a ds before this day is thru. have a wonderful monday all.:)

Earlier this morning there were two options that I didn't qualify for but now there is no options at all...it looks like it does after you have taken a survey for the day with just my email address showing and I know I haven't taken a survey yet today?? :confused:

About what seems to be the same survey...having taken a few surveys that looked *almost* exactly the same, I would say that if you had continued with the survey, you would have seen variances. I had a string of pregnancy test surveys that looked almost exactly the same as each other until I was well into them.

So if I were taking one that looked the same, I would figure I just hadn't gotten to the point where it was going to vary yet.

Either a fluke with gf or that survey in particular because I've gotten it THREE times...twice as a ds and once as a SM survey! The day I got it as a SM I had just completed it as the daily survey just minutes before!!! I'd almost rather get no survey than one I know I can't do and I have to quit. :computer:

Ditto....at least I know it is not just me...! Hopefully things will get better this afternoon. I also hope it is not really late when I do get one today. I hate when I get into a late round of surveys. I work night shift (7p-7a) and have to go back to work this wednesday. If I get a late one today and tomorrow, I will have to miss on Wed.

any one get the 'corn snack' survey lately? DH and I just sat down to do it, did the entire thing, just like normal (and like many of the food/drink surveys) and I get to submit it and it says, 'sorry, based on your answers you did not qualify.' What the heck???? Maybe we were too fast?:confused:

DH got one a few weeks ago. You get credit for the first one. But nothing for the remaining surveys so if you want to do them just for fun go ahead. But they don't give any additional SR credits. He emailed and asked them and got the canned response, "we can't give credit without the survey numbers" and when he sent the survey numbers they refuse to reply!!!! CREEPY

Hmm, interesting. I think I'd rather be magically transported to the UK, since I was once an evil outsourced employee (meaning their work was outsourced to me) while working at amazon.com, supporting amazon.co.uk emails from their customers. :)

But if we are in India, hopefully it's the city where the people that do the int'l support for hubby's group at amazon are, so he'll know some names at least! :p

Should look here first. Got the hair one. I filed it on the Survey page for Tricia.

I went back and tried 3 more survey's and got kicked off all 3 and now I have no more options. I haven't qualified the last 3 days. All the money I am making on "crazy credits" is making up for the Survey's I haven't been getting. It's always a Ying/Yang with me.

It might be a delayed one. What I do that might help...I have a notebook on my desk, I write down what the survey was about and what time I finiished, then the next day when it credits, I mark it "paid". That way I have a log of what surveys I've taken, especially for those that ask, have you taken a "insert specific product here" survey in the last xx days/months? Then I can look back b/c honestly if I didn't have that I don't remember in a few hours what I've done!

MooseBrains
07-16-2008, 10:46 AM
That is a perfect idea. It really ties into my brain injury and what I have to do already to remember important things that happen during the day. I keep a journal for people I have met or commitments I make. This can just be a new kind of journal for surveys.

Great idea.

I also put what time I take surveys, just in case I get into a 24 hour cycle (for some reason my 24 hour thing has lifted to some extent, maybe b/c I'm doing them relatively early in my day?) so I know when to come back.

And being on the west coast, I get those delayed ones, where I finish one after midnight eastern time, and I know it won't credit the next day, but it will credit the *following* day...I like keeping track of those.

Earlier today I did the Hair one with the same results as everyone else. I haven't been able to get back to trying until a little while ago. This time I got one or bathroom fixtures. It required me to download a file, then interact with a moderator and other people to give my opinions. I spent 1/2 hour on this survey, gave what I thought were thoughtful answers, got thanked for participating, then got the SR screen that I didn't qualify. Beware if you get sucked into doing this one.

Oh gracious. Should any of you get a survey that starts with the distinctive statement
This survey requires that pop-up blockers be turned off to allow pop-ups.

Please do the needful and click NEXT to start the Study once you are ready., settle in and enjoy the following hour!

Sometimes I think surveys just ask a bit too much of us, and this was one of them. Too many subjects. But not funny (apart from "do the needful") like the ones that say, basically, "and now for something completely different". LOL

Whew! Thank goodness for small favors. I got the "needful" survey yesterday but when after I did the "needful" I kept getting a page that asked for a user name and password. No matter what I did it kept coming back to that page so I obviously didn't take it. Glad I didn't end up spending an hour on that one.

No options for me today so far, either. Except for getting taken to an OTX that said I had reached my max already - well it hasn't been 24 hours yet, so of course I couldn't take one! And no others at all - oh well, I have only missed one, so missing another won't be the end of my world. I can go take a nap now - and do I ever need one!

i finally get into a ds and it takes me to otx - the funny thing is that otx has been telling me for almost 4 hours now that i have exceeded my limit (even though it has been well over 24 hours since my last survey) so of course i get that same message. kinda made me chuckle a little.:rotfl:

at least you've got a sense of humor about it, marcy :sunshine2: i can't get a DS either. i guess we'll just have to keep trying! :computer: keep smilin' g/f! :banana:

i'm trying to keep smiling but after trying for over 10 hours today to get a ds i think my mood is about the change. what do you think g/f? should i just keep trying or should i give up? i need some guidance and maybe a really good laugh as the only credit i've gotten so far today is yesterdays survey. help me please.:confused:

noooooo don't give up! i just got one on cameras and if i can get one, you will too! here's a laugh for ya (found this looking up jokes for clients at work): how did burger king get dairy queen pregnant? he forgot to wrap his whopper! HAHA! corny, i know, but i can't help but giggle at it! :sunshine2:

thanks g/f - i needed to laugh and that joke was cute. i just tried again and the only option is if i have a kid 2-5 in my hh (which i don't) so who knows if and when i will get one today but i promise i won't give up. thanks again - it was really and truly appreciated.:thanks:

That's a good one!
Still none at all available for me. I don't know that I can get one tomorrow either, as we are going to take our kids to a Thomas the Tank Engine Day thing a couple hours from where we live. So -- I might miss 2 in a row. Sigh - that's life, I guess. I'll keep trying, maybe one will pop up for me later!

Arrgghh!! I finally got one last night-it was an interactive on bathroom fixtures/faucets/towel holders...got all the way through and was enjoying the change in format...got back to the sr page and was informed that I didn't qualify...just like Moosebrains--sigh! I'll keep trying too--:confused:

07-17-2008, 06:04 PM
that's the one i got - it wasn't too bad and the commercials were okay to look at. it just a lot of time today just to get a ds but once i finished my ds i did a sm and got credit for that. well at least i got 2 out of 3 today. i am giving up on otx and will try again tomorrow. you are right - persistence does pay off as well as a lot of patience. have a great evening all.:sunshine:

07-17-2008, 09:53 PM
I am back on a late evening schedule. By the time I get home from work, cook dinner, bath the wee one and change it is about now. So before I go directly to the DS I check here to see what is working and what is not.

Wish me luck I am going to give it a try.

I refuse to do those for 80 cents. I do another survey from time to time (NOT another rewards site, but through AOL) and I get paid $20-$30 for those.

I had one of those a week or so again on faucets, it did take me to the congrats page and I did get credit, but I couldn't helping thinking it was so long and detailed for .80 an hour in an interactive survey like that is worth way more then .80

Okay I take back my last post, I just finally got a ds, but it was very strange. It was about my religious preference and the way I feel about my self confidence and which items I would purchase out of two (one name brand and one not). But it was pretty short and I got taken back to the SR Congrats page. It was a little interesting.

I am so happy, I was doing a survey on credit cards and was very well into it. Then it asked about when I used them last.

I have been telling everyone all week. I'M DEBT FREE! I only used 1 credit card for our Disney trip and the same for a few purchases here. Then I paid it off in full.

I got disqualified because I don't use my credit cards. Dave Ramsey would be so proud of me. I am already.

I just wanted to warn others you might want to look out if you get this daily survey in case there is a problem with it. Wouldn't want anyone else to waste their time like I just did!!

I had this one as my SM survey today and had the same problem as you. I thought it was just timing maybe it filled up while I was in the middle of taking it, but I took this at like 8 a.m., so clearly they knew it was full before you started taking the survey. I don't get why it would let you take the WHOLE thing and then tell you quota full, when it knew that from the get go. Bummer ! I hope you get another daily survey if you haven't already

Beware the music survey, it asked about music you listen to and download, etc, fairly long. It didn't go to congrats page and it's letting dh take another one.

Argh!! I forget to look back through these....I just went through about 25 minutes of this all the way to end to get a Quota Full page. :computer: I reported it to them.

cglaura
07-20-2008, 06:12 PM
eI got the mp3 today also, I submitted the link to them on the ds page/report errors.

I just hate when they put the qualifiers at the END of the survey. They should be first, I don't mind getting booted in a few minutes but at the end of a completed, took my time survey, yep.

funcouple6: One survey a day is available to every to try to get...but doesn't mean you'll fit the requirements they may be looking for (like in my case they may not be looking for, or already got enough responses from a divorced 39 year old mid income female).

I know you are new and reading the forums alot for answers (best thing to do!), not sure if you know / read yet that even when you get the page that says, something along the lines of, sorry, we have no surveys for you today, check back tomorrow...you can keep trying to get one, just go back click on the Daily Survey link / page again. They add new surveys all day and if you have the time to check back throughout the day you may likely eventually get one. Just always use the same email and personal info.

I thought you were disqualified because you only use one, but I put in 3 and went on to the next set of questions, answered them and then was told their quota was already full. I was at about 70% done according to their bar! Ugh!

I would skip this one completely if anyone gets it, it's not worth taking the chance!

lurkyloo
07-22-2008, 03:28 PM
OK, I have a question about that - I've been given a second survey today too!

I did an entire survey, was returned to SR, and then checked to see if I could get another to make sure it went through. Well, it took me to a second survey so I did it, figuring my first one didn't credit.

But when I finished that one, it took me through ANOTHER screener instead of straight to the page that sez I can't take anymore surveys... After the screener I got "we don't have any surveys for you right now..."

So.... does that mean one of my 2 surveys "stuck" or am I not gonna get any credit?

mollyeilis
07-22-2008, 03:33 PM
Oh goodness gracious, what did they do to their site last night??????

:rotfl:

It's going to be interesting, to see if we all get 5 surveys crediting tomorrow, or none after taking what they offer.


marcymajor, as you know, that phrase "none now, come back tomorrow" is their default message. I've always waited for the page where there are NO options, just the "if you aren't this email click here", b/c that page shows me that the survey "took". The other message means a big ol' nothing, and especially today, it seems!

marcymajor
07-22-2008, 03:40 PM
it makes you kinda wonder if anyone else is having these same problems or is it just confined to us? i did get the page about my email if this isn't you click here so maybe it will credit. only time will tell. lets all keep our fingers and toes crossed and say a prayer that we each get credit for at least one of the surveys we actually completed today.:rotfl:

07-22-2008, 03:58 PM
I don't think it's confined to you guys.

I took a Greenfield survey just now. Got the confimation page. And then went to verify, by trying to do another survey. Got into another survey :confused: and had one of the pages stop loading. It said to refresh if idle at 100% for more than 10 seconds. So i clicked on the refresh tab and it took me to the begining of the survey again and eventually to a weird unable to continue page. Went back to try and do another survey and got the "no new surveys" page. Hopefully my initial survey credits tomorrow.

I don't want to do the wrong thing and keep trying if the first will credit, but I also can only miss 2 more before I won't qualify for the big bonus. Do you think it's just a GF glitch?

Who knows, IMHO I would take another one bc everytime I get the congrats page It won't let me take another one. BUT then again I was able to get into a survey this morning, but then my pc locked up and i Had to reboot. Ever since then I'm getting the same screen as I would have if I had taken one for the day. I'm not sure what to think, since I've tried off and on all day with no luck.

I keep having no options most of the time, but did manage to get a survey about evaluation of credit card applications I might get in the mail.
The fact I have little to none to choose from in my regular daily survey might explain why there are are usually no options in the SM for DH anymore - even though his age/gender definitely puts him in a very different sort of demographics than me! Apparently, not different enough, tho.
Very interesting to me, some of these other posts - GF seems to be having a funny month.

Well, I never even go check. I get the SR Congratulations header w/ the paragraph disclaimer thingy, I'm done, I dont' even go back to that page until the next day. I'd rather go on the side of caution and risk a credit than putting a bee in greenfield's bonnet.

I've always rec'd credit after getting that page. I thought the "guidelines" were that if you receive that page you should not even attempt another (I could be wrong on that, and not criticizing those that check, that is just my understanding of how daily surveys go.).

From what I've understood, is that if you clear cookies and then go try again, THAT is being naughty and sneaky and tricky. But just to go from the "congrats" page to a page where you can click the Daily Opinion Survey link again, and click on the big green picture, to see if it offers you something, is just double-checking that it really "took".

But they are definitely having some floopiness over there, b/c of what seemed to be, in my case, a delayed "taking" of the survey I did. v. v. odd, to copy Bridget Jones. :p

Gotcha, I knew that about the cookies thing, just thought it was standard practice to accept the congrats page as you got one. I didn't realize there ever was an issue of a survey "not taking" when you've received that particular page. Now, getting som funky ending page, like that white one w/ black text that was floating around a few months ago..those I went back and checked.

I've been reading about the floopy there today so I realize today is of special concern that things aren't taking...I guess my question was why people check after getting the congrats, which I gues is b/c some have missed credits even when getting that page?

Now, if I could only get one today! I'm not hypertensive, and none of above give me nada.

See, now I just learned something new. I wouldn't have thought clearing cookies would matter for the DS as I didn't think there was cookies involved in that process.

mollyeilis
07-22-2008, 06:02 PM
True true, hadn't thought about that. :)

I might just be going off of ancient rules, back when we thought we could switch between members in the household, which involved clearing cookies and having the other person go for a survey. not allowed not allowed not allowed for anyone who is new and skimming.

BUT I also know that I have just barely caught myself in putting a mistake in when entering my info for the surveys, and if I had gone through, it would have caused my demos to be different than they are. Thank goodness I have caught myself!

When I'm shopping, I shop around then clear cookies and go through. Sometimes that day I have entered my info to try for surveys, and once I clear, I have to re-enter it. I feel in peril each time I do that, for fear that I enter it wrong.

So even if it's ancient info and not based on how DS's are done, it can still be a dangerous matter, re-entering info like that.


I think I'm getting a bit loopy; woke up insanely tired and haven't had lunch yet (it's 3 my time) so I think I'd better stop talking now. :headache::rolleyes:

First time in a LONG time...

I just went through a survey about printer cartridges that mentioned a movie deal thing....it felt like it went through just fine, but now it's letting me take another. Wow, it hasn't happened to me for forever.

Thankfully I always check!

Well, if it helps, I got this one yesterday or the day before and it DID credit.

Me too, I did get credit as well. A couple times throughout the day I do get options, but nothing goes into a survey. I'm glad it's just not me though! DH couldn't do a SM today either!

I can't get an OTX either. :computer:

Well, since you guys were having issues, I decided to go through and check after getting the congrats page (I normally just close out after getting that page). I had options as if it were the first time there today. However, I decided to be a guinea pig and didn't try for one and just stayed with my original "SR congrats I could be a $50,000 winner!" page, so we'll see if I get credit tomorrow. My survey today was on coffee ads. I hope it does, I'm at 20 if this credits, and the end of the month is usually slim pickins.

I've decided not to try and take another today either. Doing that would put me on a late rotation and I just got out of that. Since the GF "problem" I don't normally check when I get the SR congrats screen, I just take it that it will credit. It was just when I saw this thread that I decided to check. I get a SM and OTX about once, at the most twice a week. It will be interesting tomorrow to see if all of our surveys credit!

Several of us got that survey the other day and none of us had a password. Mine asked for a code. It looked like it was going to be on soap. There was nothing I could do but back out and try for another one. I have been doing surveys for quite awhile and this has never happened before. If a survey does ask you to enter a code they usually tell you on the first page, give you the code and tell you to write it down as you won't be able to go back and get it. That's exactly what I do and have always gotten into the survey. So, you were not alone on this one!

Yes BUT if you tried after 8pm and had options IMHO that's the "late" rotation you could get on. Meaning if I took one this morning and then after 8pm (seems to be the "magic" GF hour) that'll put me on the late rotation. So tomorrow I wouldn't be able to take one until after 8pm if that makes any sense?

Like today for example, I tried to get one, was put into one but my pc froze. I haven't had options ALL day long, but I do now. IF I take it now I'll be stuck on the late rotation. So I would rather wait and take it in the morning so I won't be. So it doesn't suprise me that you have options now, if you checked at 6 or 7 EST and had options I would say otherwise KWIM?

I checked as soon as I was done today's survey, at 7:50pm...I usually never check back I just take it, get the congrats, wait 24 hours and try again. I only checked today b/c I was curious as alot seemed to be having issues.

I didn't realize there were rotations, I just thought you were supposed to wait at least 24 hours after you finished the last one. I'm learning alot today :rotfl:

DD just took the sm survey, and it credited on the hour, she clicked on it again and it said no new surveys, not that she already took one. So I'm hoping they are going through ok and my ds will credit ok tomorrow.

I think GF has it set so you end up on one of two rotations, I'm not sure exactly but I do know that if I take one after 8pm I Have to wait until 8pm the following day. BUT If I take one at 7am one morning the next morning I can take it at 6am, if I don't take it until 1pm one day I can take it 7am the following day. I'm only taking one a day but it "appears" to be on of two rotations. I usually do go back and check to make sure I get the "exceed" or whatever the new screen is and GF won't allow me to take another one most of the time ( I was burned before like the other's mentioned above, which is why I always check). So GF does have some sort of check and balance bc I'm only able to take one a day unless I want to get on a late rotation.
I think someone mentioned back in the winter time that it seems like there is either once every 24 hrs or once a day.

LIke I said 8pm or there abouts seemed like the magic hour, it could be earlier or later give or take 15-30 mins. With you finishing so close to 8pm, I still have my doubts that it wasn't a "late" rotation option. Hopefully yours will credit tomorrow. I'll be curious if it does bc then "my" theory would be that those options you just got were the late rotation. (Again all my "theory" in how I've seen it work)

Am I over anaylizing this???? :rotfl:

A few days ago I got one that had a password, but didn't go to a page to input, I had to back out. I reported it, I think a few did. I guess they tried to fix it but fogot to include the initial password page again.

So today when I got that (recognized the page layout & colors), I put in the password I got the other day and it let me in! However I didn't qualify, I guess they only want weathly soap buyers! Or they had enough mid-income results.

Nope! It makes sense what you are saying, I just never used that method. I just try until I get one, then wait 24 hours, try again. The latest I've taken one was 11:42pm est, and that rec'd next day credit, I didn't think it would, thought it would count for the next day so close to midnight. So then I skipped the next day to get back early morning tries the following day. It is funny how everyone has their own "system" !

I have to sometimes do projects on my boss's computer and he has VISTA. So I clicked on it. For the survey, you don't have to be a VISTA user. They want to know why people are afraid to use the operating system. It did a Tutorial, to help you use it, and would you purchase the system after you do the Tutorial. So maybe click on the option. At home, I do not have VISTA and at work, I am thinking of getting it, so it gave me the survey.

Alot of people yesterday were getting the congrats page, but still having options as if the survey didn't "take". So if you got 2 credits today the original probably was successful and you just actually did 2 surveys yesterday (not on purpose to cheat...alot of people were feeling like it didn't go through right the first time so wanted to be sure and took another...).

I did get credit for that one I posted about yesterday.

I also received the survey that needed the password, so I e-mailed Greenfield, They e-mailed me twice. The first one was just saying that they would be looking into it. But here was the second e-mail, said what to do if it happens again with the password.

Dear Amy,

Thank you very much for writing to us.

I apologize for the inconvenience that you?ve had. I would like to inform you that after you are directed to the client site you will get a password screen however you are suppose to simply click on start as the password is automatically filled by the survey.

NOTE: If the password box is not filled automatically then please put the number infront of "id=" from the address bar.
Example: https//io.qarcom/gfonline/08242/indexhtml?id=115557&gid=315557
Here the password is '115557'

Do email us if you require any further assistance, we would be more than happy to assist you.

We really appreciate your membership and continued interest in Greenfield Online surveys.

Thanks & best regards,

Then today I went back after taking a survey and got another on a gender testing kit. I got to the end and it didn't take me back to congrats page.

So I just went back and got another survey on ink cartridgees and it went to the congrats page

Then I went back and got another survey! This was on appliances but I didn't qualify. So I have had 2 congrats pages today, 1 that didn't go back and 1that I didn't qualify for. Yet no credits at all!


What do I do about the survey's that said congrats all week? Now I won't make the bonus:mad:

After posting the other day and going off to get food, I missed a page or so, so if you posted that yesterday or the day before, I missed it. Is this always, or recently?

Do they have ANY way of us trying to see if it "took"? Because up until a couple days ago, that was my way of seeing if it "took", and it NEVER backfired on me until yesterday (took one survey, let me take another (I waited a couple hours for the page to re-set to giving me no options), after that one it "re-set" and gave me the nice nothing page) and 2 dang surveys credited today (so I'm sitting out the DS today b/c I don't feel it's fair for me to take one today).

Surely you guys have noticed, and surely THEY have noticed, that just getting the "congratulations" page means relatively little?

I agree, I just wish they would go back to the "Exceeded page" so you knew you had already taken one. That was more clear cut then not getting any options and saying "Sorry none available" but then I got used to getting that until the last few days. Something is definintely different with their system that's for sure.

I also believe that something is now interferring DS and SM survey's. The day I could NOT get a DS was the day DH took the SM before I took the DS.
So I didn't get one, since then I've taken the DS and DH can NOT get a SM survey. I've never since SM survey's have started had a problem getting both but now it appears that's not the case. I've taken them both ways, DS first then DH taken SM or vice versa never had an issue until the day after their site was down for tech. upgrades.
