what is with otx today? i have been trying since early this morning to get one and i keep getting booted out and told i don't qualify for any surveys so i wait awhile and try again and now it says i have exceeded my limit for the day. how is that possible as i haven't even completed one?:computer::confused:help me please.
OTX is acting weird today - I have tried several times for a survey and almost everytime I get you don't qualify for the survey - but I have not even answered one question. :rotfl: Is anyone else having trouble with OTX?
i had a lot of problems with otx this morning - not qualifying for any surveys and when i would try again it would say that i had exceeded my limit for the day. i finally had to walk away from my computer for a while and then i tried again and i actually got thru one complete survey and it credited at 2 this afternoon (had been trying since very early this morning). just take a deep breath, eat some chocolate (works for me) and try again. i will keep my fingers crossed for you that you have better luck with otx and that you will get a survey today. have a wonderful monday.:sunshine:
I did finally get an OTX today - but one thing, I keep getting asked about having a cell phone, and I say yes, and every time, am booted out. Must have taken this survey before, but the question is still there?!
This happens to me all the time, it is so frustrating. Sometimes the page doesnt load or stops loading right in the middle of a survey, and then since there is nothing I can do, if I refresh, or close the page and try again, I get that Exceeded the Limit for the day message... but yea how is that possible when I haven't completed one? That gets very frustrating and as a result I end up not taking OTX surveys usually. Its like impossible!Quote:

I finally got one, pretending to shop at a convenience store for a drink and now there's an error on the page and won't let me go any further!!
I've been on a dry spell for a long time and was very happy to get an easy one! Wonderful!:computer:
When you get the options even if you have already had those options do you still answer the questions until it says you do not qualify. I find that if I just close it out, it blocks me out of the surveys for the day. Don't know if you understand what I mean, I am probably not explaining it right.Quote:

I got a survey this morning which stalled and wouldn't refresh, and then an OTX page comes up saying I have exceeded my maximum for the day. HA - I didn't even get to finish the survey, so I have NOT exceeded my maximum. But OTX does not seem to have anything in place to detect when their surveys don't let you finish, so that you could try for another one. That is annoying, to get shut out of surveys after one had a problem!:computer:
i totally feel your pain. i tried for 3 hours yesterday to take an otx survey and all it kept telling me was that i had exceeded my limit for the day and i hadn't even taken one in over 24 hours. i finally had to give up. why not just walk away from your computer for a little while, grab a cup of coffee or tea and try again in an hour or so - that seems to work sometimes. have a great friday and i hope you can get an otx survey.:sunshine:
Thanks, marcy. I think I will clear cookies, and wait a while, too. Maybe that will work, and if it doesn't, oh well!!
you are very welcome and i hope you have a great weekend.:sunshine:
I did get an OTX!!
Thanks, marcy, you have a great wkend, too!:sunshine2:
what is up with OTX it ask one question that says you are not qualied would you like to qualify for another one than the screen goes blank and says you did not qualify for this survey and does that about 4 times till it says your not qualified try tomorrow?
Well, I just tried for OTX, and I was well into a survey about cable and internet. Said on the first question on a page to choose a certain answer for quality control purposes, and I DID, then I answered the other questions. And then it said I gave a wrong answer and to pay attention! GRR! They must not have coded the choices right, so it thought the one I chose wasn't the one they said to choose.
Has this thread always been in the Member Q&A section? I thought it was in Technical Issues and had to go searching for it!
No a merge gone awry again lol I moved it back
:rotfl:
You've got rogue threads moving about....
lanny76 - congrats on getting an otx survey.:party: i knew you would get one. i hope that your weekend is the best ever.:clap:
Anyone get 100% credit (or even close) for OTX surveys? I am usually pretty good but lately I don't know. What's your trick? Do you clear cookies, sign back in and immediately take the survey?
i was in the middle of an otx survey and my computer died so i had to reboot it and i just tried to take another one and it says that i have reached my limit for the day and to try again tomorrow.:computer::computer::cry:
sorry about my rantings b4 about otx. i just tried to get another one and was able to, completed it, got the thank you for taking our survey and it already has credited. i guess i just need to be more patient and not take things so seriously when it comes to surveys. everyone on sr and the forum have a wonderful weekend.:sunshine:
Is anyone else having trouble completing the OTX surveys?
When I first joined and up until about 2 weeks ago, I was able to do one every day. Now when I try, I never seem to qualify for them and I try multiple times per day. I clear my cookies daily.
It's been hit or miss with me lately after almost daily surveys. I've been trying periodically throughout the day and still nada. Oh well.Quote:

Three days in a row when I don't qualify for the 1st otx it then tells me I have reached the maximum. I normally can get them every day... I always have had to try multiple times, but the past few days it won't let me try again, if I don't get it the first time it thinks I have already taken one and won't let me try again for 24 hours.... very weird. Oh well at least I am getting my daily survey every day and my sm most days
i have been trying since 5:30 this morning to get an otx survey and i can't seem to qualify for anything. i even took a break for about an hour and a half (went grocery shopping) and i still can't get one. what's up with that? it seems to be getting harder and harder to qualify for an otx survey. it makes you kinda wonder what they are looking for (55 year old mother of 2 who does not travel for business or drink enough).:rotfl:
I keep getting the same question would you like to take the survey in english or spanish, I pick english and it says I do not qualify for two days. Usually I can get an otx at least everyother day but I didn't get one at all this weekend.
I have had good luck with OTX this month, better than usual - so maybe people who are having trouble this month will have better luck next month, or after a little break. Sometimes it is harder to get OTX after a while if you have been getting lots.
Anyway, today I had one that asked my opinion on a website template and then 4 pages where it asked what product I would choose to buy next time I went to the store - 4 different products with several brands, and just pick the one I'd want to buy. Classification questions, and a thank you page. 2 minutes!!
Lucky you.... I took an OTX survey sat. and one sunday.. and no credit... and I got to the last page. Today I coulndt qualify for one at all....lol.o well
time for bed and try again tomorrow.
Thanks and good night.

what seems to be the problem with otx today? i last took their survey at 2 yesterday afternoon, it credited at 3 and it is now almost 4:30 and it is telling me that i have exceeded my limit. how it that possible as it has been well over 24 hours since i completed their last one?:confused: oh well, i guess i can just keep trying a little while longer and if i get one i get one, if not there is always tomorrow. i did get a ds and sm today so 2 out of 3 aint bad. everyone on sr and the forum try and have a wonderful rest of the day.:sunshine:
I'm having issues with OTX today. First it took several tries before I got a survey and the survey i did get was about a cartoon and burger king. At no point did it ask if i had kids or to put them in front of the computer. So I answered the survey like the adult I am. Half way through the survey (or what i assume to be halfway through the survey) i get the experiencing difficulties webpage. Okay, not a big deal. Close it and try again. A few hours later, only moments ago though, I get the exact same survey. Get through most of the survey and ...... get the same webpage saying that they are experienceing difficulties. :mad: I'm going to wait awhile to try again today.
what is with otx? i tried at 5:30 and 6 tonight and it said that i had exceeded my limit and now i tried again and a white page comes up saying that the page cannot be displayed and nothing comes up at all. is it me or is anyone else having this problem tonight? help as i am a wee bit confused as this has never happened to me before.:confused::computer::computer:
I got one earlier about upcoming movies. I love them.
i finally got my otx for the day on music. now all i have to do is wait for it to credit (hopefully at 9:00). have a great evening all.:sunshine2:
Finally got a survey about a movie.:banana:Quote:
