I did one on a movie today. It was kind of long, but I got the lovely Congrats page at the end so well worth it! :)
UGH!!!! I just (almost) completed a survey on movies, got to the very last page where they asked my salary range, then got an error message that the page was unavailable and to please check back later. :computer:
ooh, so close. did you try to get another survey after that happened? i totally feel your pain. just take a deep breath and try again. i know you will get one and i will cross my fingers and toes for you that it happens soon. have a wonderful weekend.:sunshine:
Crapola. Just completed another DS survey but didn't get the SR congrats page. That's the 3rd survey I've done today that I didn't get credit for.:mad:
AAAUUUGGGHHH!! Four with no credit today. Maybe I should quit for the day.
Woohoo!!! 1st DS of the month!!! Finally!
wtg schaery.:party: guess persistence does pay off. now just sit back and relax and enjoy the rest of your evening.:sunshine:
just tried to do my ds for the morning and the first one was about movies for teenagers and i had to put in a word and i got booted out saying my quota group had been filled, the second one was an otx so i exited out of that real fast. now all i get is the same 2 options i had all last sunday (os 10 operating system for macs and office supplies-i don't do either) and when i check none of the above i get no new surveys try again tomorrow. this is what happened to me last sunday and i could not get a ds to save my life. well, it's still very early in the morning and maybe gf will hopefully add some new surveys as the day goes on (sunday is getting to be the hardest day to qualify for a ds for me anyway). that's my rant for the day. have a wonderful day everybody and i hope we can all get our ds for today.:sunshine:
Ya know, sometimes I do get amused at how stressed out people get about not getting a survey but I hadn't gotten one in 6 days, and yesterday I was starting to take it personally. I wasn't gonna quit til I got one. :pQuote:

I think you are giving yourself excellent advice. I try several times a day for a survey, but if it doesn't happen, no big deal. I'm not even trying for a bonus. If it happens, it happens. This way, I get to enjoy SR and the forum. Despite my attitude, my account seems to be slowly creeping up. By the way, Marcy, I see you are #13 on the Big Board. That's quite a feat in itself. Congrats!:sunshine:Quote:

no ds for me today, i guess :(
i truly feel your pain and i am so sorry that you are having problems getting your ds today. just take a deep breath, relax, eat some chocolate (that always works for me) and keep on pluggin away. i will keep my fingers and toes crossed for you that you get one tonite (not too late). have a terrific evening and keep on smiling.:sunshine:

Must be slim picking today.
Hopefully tomorrow's a better day. :sunshine:
after getting booted out of my first ds of the day (i don't live in ca) i got a survey about electronics and electronic companies, completed it and got the congrats page. not too bad of a way to start a monday.:cooldance:
Oh good lord have mercy. I just took the longest headache inducing survey ever. They flashed real english words and fake words on a screen w/ product logos between. I had to click my keyboard a certain key for real or fake.
Be prepared, when they say you have to do in one sitiing they weren't kidding, I wasn't able to even sip my coffee!
It was like being in A Clockwork Orange!
But....it took me to congrats, oh, what we go through for our daily totals to go up!! :D

Glad you made it through it and got the congrats page. :clap:
Did anyone else get two credits for Friday? It was a long day here on Friday with the kids out of school while we waited for TS Hanna to hit, but I didn't think I did two surveys! :confused: I did do the steak sauce and marinades one on Friday and it did not go back to SR - maybe it credited after all? I did one after that one that did take me back to SR, but so many people posted about the steak sauce one that I didn't think it would credit.
I got two for Saturday, and I don't even remember finishing one and not getting the page. I only remember finishing one at all. I do not like getting 2 credits, not at all!
I'm with you (although you do sound a bit like Dr. Seuss :rotfl:). Surveys and shopping are the bulk of my earnings, and I don't want to do anything to mess that up! :sunshine:Quote:

:rotfl:
I'm not even sure I meant to sound like that!
Well, I think it was the rhyming, although the meter is about right, too! :DQuote:

you're not the only one with an additional credit. the first survey i took on friday did not give me the congrats page or take me back to sr and i reported it to gf via an error report so i took another one later on that day and it did take me back to the congrats page that time. i too feel the same way you do and hope this doesn't mess things up for any of us.:confused:
arggg. I got a survey that says i missed an answer.. but i didn't..i reclicked everything. and it just keeps saying i missed one..i'm guessing it is an exercise survey??
I'm not sure exactly where it is, but if you look through the threads, somewhere Tricia mentions that just because you don't get the congrats page does not mean you won't get credit. It was explained to us that some of the advertisers request that your answers go to them and then they will give the credit to GF to give to you, so, you won't see those credits the next day and you may not get the GF congrats page, so, be very careful. Just because you don't get the congrats page doesn't mean you should take another survey.
yep, I'm getting this too - I clicked everything, still got that. Clicked the one it says I missed, & it keeps saying there's a problem w/ my answer!:confused:Quote:

They probably already know which ones don't give the congrats page, not sure about that.Quote:

Now I have a forbidden page in a middle of survey... i don't have permission to finish the survey...ug!
Thanks for the reminder. It's hard to know what to do, especially if you complete a survey that doesn't go back to SR, then you read here that several other people have had the same problem with the same survey and haven't gotten credit (like the steak sauces one). If we get any kind of "Thank you", should we not do another?Quote:

For that exercise survey, the only way I saw to get unstuck was to answer no to everything and then say yes to the Do no forms of exercise....except then it kicked me out completely.
I had that exercise one too and I found that if you clicked no to all the questions it finally let you through. It did let me through and if I'm not mistaken I think that's the one that I was finally able to finish and get the congrats page. Was it a mailbox one? That's the one I finally got congrats on anyway.
i just got a survey to join a panel for a major food manufacturer and i spent over 15 minutes doing it and there was no congrats page. now i have no options...has anyone done this survey and gotten/not gotten credit?
Just finished one about wiring in my home. I thought it was rather bizarre because I live in an apartment and they didn't ask about your housing arrangements till the very last question.
I just completed one asking for a lot of personal financial information. I selected the "prefer not to answer" option for all the questions related to how much our bank account balance is or how much we deposit each month into our savings and/or checking account.
I don't mind answering about where we bank, but when surveys get way too personal, I'd rather get bumped out. The survey did ask my address at the end, which I provided, but the rest of the information, I just wasn't interested in sharing. I'm not sure what it matters to a survey company just how much I deposit into my savings and/or checking account on a monthly basis. :confused:
