Maybe taking a little break to destress might help, but I wouldn't leave SR for anything! We all have slow days.... I have had times when no offers would credit and I couldn't qualify for surveys, but I just enjoyed the forum for a few days and things picked back up. Take a look at your account history and remind yourself how many things HAVE credited. We all have slow times, but we all have days where everything works too! I just try to remember those days. For example yesterday I did every new offer and 1 old one and they all credited, I really hadn't had many offers credit since Crazy Credits and those couple days everything credited too. Just remember every day can't be perfect.

i understand what you are saying but it is not just me that this is happening to. for some reason a lot of people are having problems getting a survey and it can't just be because of their demographics, there has to be some other reason behind it. it is only the 6th day of the month and to not have any surveys for so many different people from different places makes me wonder sometimes. does that make any sense? i also know that i should exercise more patience when it comes to surveys and maybe i should take a day off from surveys just to relax and de-stress. thanks for your words - they really hit home. have a wonderful evening and again:thanks:

I might have this exactly the opposite, but I'm remembering that Tricia has said that summer is the slowest time for surveys.

Or maybe that's the winter? (see? exactly the opposite is a possibility)

When I see "no surveys for you", I figure it means there are no surveys. To me, the glitch is the wording of things, no longer (for ages it seems) getting the "you have exceeded the daily limit" message, and more recently not being able to rely on the "no surveys" message as meaning something credited. THOSE are the glitches, to me, along with error messages and their site being down for maintenance.

But the "no surveys" part, I just assume that's exactly what they mean.


I hadn't done a SM survey since July, I believe, until yesterday when I could try. And I got the "no surveys" message for ages. Then just after 8pm Pacific time I got LOADS of options all at once, and skated one in just before 9pm. If I hadn't checked right after 8, I wouldn't have seen all of those. And right now I'm in the "no surveys for you" period for the SM survey, probably both b/c it's not yet time (I'm on a rough 20 hour cycle for SM surveys, and it's made more difficult b/c the survey credited for today, just after 9pm pacific time, so it's confusing) and b/c they haven't loaded any recently.

I guess I was wondering if the glitch was that my DH was able to complete one but didn't get the congrats and then it was all the sudden that it said he should try back tomorrow. Even with a ton of options available on the list. It was almost like it decided the one earlier went through and he was done for the day.

I don't know about the SM one for me. I usually have some options to pick from even if I can't qualify after I get into them. I'm getting the page like I took one and am trying again before my 24 hrs. are up. But I didn't take one yesterday.

I have faith it will be back to normal soon. I got the little bonus last month and it won't kill me if I get it instead of the big one this month again. It's still fun to see the jump in the account at the first of the month.

Here's to fingers and toes crossed that we all get one tomorrow.:D

I had like twelve options this morning and I checked 7. The first survey I got was for one of those online communities. I took it and it didn't take me back to SR. Big surprise, those almost never do. Anyway, when I went back to try again, all the options were gone and ever since ( about 14 hours now) all I get is the "No surveys" message. You can't tell me that that one survey wiped out all 12 options. There's something strange going on.

I hope so! That was tooooo long of a survey to get na-da. And it was kind of a fun one, at that.

just wanted to let everyone know that after 15 hours of trying to get a sm survey (i know this is the ds thread but i thought i would put this here) i had options, completed it and got the congrats page. now lets hope it credits after 9 tonite. i guess gf added more surveys so now everyone can try to get one. have a great evening all and good luck with your surveys.:sunshine:

I just got a very strange survey that asked if I had any children between the ages of 8 and 17 that knew how to sew. DD does but she is only eight. It was very strange asking if she took sewing classes and other weird question and then it did not take me back to the congrats page after it said I completed the survey with dd. Now I have no options, well I guess I will have to keep trying.

i just completed one! :cooldance: everyone check your options again!

I just got one too. I didnt all day until now..
go try again!!
