Grrrr! I just spent close to an hour doing a survey for AOL News and it didn't take me back to SR. Now at 9:30 tonight I have to try again.
Avoid Aol survey!!!
ETA: Looks like I should have checked here first. Seems like there are several people who have had bad luck with the news surveys. I think this is definately one for Tricia to report to Greenfield. Guess I be checking here from now on before I complete a survey - lol.
I *finally* got one today after trying without success all darn week!
So, IF I luck out the rest of the month, I can eek out 20.
after being kicked out of 2 surveys and one giving me an error i finally got a super easy one on milk and it took maybe 5 minutes yay:cooldance:
I got one today on mortgages and how you gather information for a mortgage or refinancing. It wanted to know how important watching things like sports, reality tv, comedy channel, etc are to gathering your information. It was a very odd survey but didn't take too long.
I got the milk one too. Soooo easy!! Took me all of 5 minutes. :cooldance:

Got a nice one on avocados.
I wish I could get some of the fun short ones I read about in this thread... but it has been rough getting any this month...
Faith
now hungry for guacamole (did I spell that right?)
My son got the video game one. He wanted to bail and said it was too long but I made him stick it out and finish.
DD9 got it and loved it and the game. She wants it.:rotfl:Quote:

I logged in for another survey, and one came up for my DD for the same thing - new Wii game. The same problem happened on the "identify this picture" screen. :mad:
I'm not sure if this was a glitch with the survey itself or something with my computer. However, I've never had a problem with a red X before in any of my previous surveys.
DS got this same survey yesterday. We waited 15 minutes thinking maybe it just took a long time to load then refreshed the screen and nothing happened. Finally he guessed horse and got booted out of the survey.Quote:

What a waste of my time to give them all the information they need for their research and then not be rewarded. I also hope that Tricia can get this taken care of so others don't have the same problem.

Does that make any sense what I'm trying to say? :p
did one on Wendy's that wasn't too bad
my condom survey did not credit but they said they would send me free samples so perhaps all is not lost
I just did one on MSNBC and I had to download something to take it. It was pretty easy and painless but it dd not take me back to the SR page and the SR page does not say I have taken my survey. I closed out of another one that I would have had to download something because I did not want to go through that one again. Now I am having trouble getting another one. I know it is early still but I was hoping to get it over with early today!!
Got the same one today. Not too bad, but a bit different than I'm used to. At least it credited!:)Quote:

what did some of you all that did get this survey pick?
I had a problem with this survey - I filled in this page, leaving 2 spaces blank that said optional (middle initial and additional address). It said I needed to fill in all required spaces (or something to that affect). So I filled in middle initial and put in na for additional address. I got the same message so couldn't proceed with survey.

My remember-er isn't the best, but I think I picked the kangaroo. I figured they had a place to stuff the kid if they being too bad and they were used to having their kids around all the time.Quote:

I went in to take another survey and guess what I got??? ANOTHER Keynote!!!
I went through the first couple of pages and it was about ebay but BUYING instead of selling so I figured I would try it.
This one went through. Go figure!!
:confused:
I got that eBay one today too...I sure hope it credits...unlike that AOL and GoogleNews one, the eBay one tells me that I have exceeded my daily limit! Hope that is a good sign. I would have had a survey for everyday if it wasn't for 2 days of the AOL and Google ones!!Quote:

After the buying ebay one today and the selling ebay the other day, I also got the message that I've exceeded my daily limit. Guess we'll find out tomorrow.Quote:

I should have known better. I got the whole way through it and when it should have gone back to SR, all I got was an error page. :computer:
Have you cleared cookies and had your dh, bf, kiddo try? I've had to have mike do them all weekend as they aren't looking for my kind :)Quote:

I tried talking dh into trying another survey for me, but after the last survey he took for me - it was over 1 hour long. He has been working on our new house all day and is tired so no luck with him and my kiddos are too young. I will try again one more time. ThanksQuote:

You should try my method that I do with Mike. I fill out the silly questions for him and the questions that are the "Meat" of the survey I read outloud to him to get his answers. It cuts his actual input/time down to 10 minutes at the most and based on how he's answering the "meaty" questions I can figure out his responses on the fillers.Quote:

I did one on AOL news, where you look for info and then ask questions. I got this page at the end
"Thank you for sharing your opinions!
Your answers have been received and this survey is now completed.
We appreciate you taking the time out of your busy day to share your thoughts and opinions with us. Your input today will directly impact the products and services of the future products and services that everyone will enjoy.
Thanks again!
But it didn't go back to the sunshine page. And it's letting me take another survey. EEERRRRRR
Heading to work on a sour note.
Angela
