Looks like they are having some server issues. Give a bit and then try again.Quote:

I think you got it, thank you. I always hit the enter key in the past but something must have changed. :thanks:Quote:

Greenfield is working again- I just completed an easy survey with them!:sunshine:
did anyone else get double credit from GF for Friday? I wonder if it's a credit from a previous survey that didn't credit ontime?
It is very possible that it is from another day where you weren't returned all the way back to the SR congrats page. GF says that in those cases you'll receive credit at a later time. :)Quote:

My husband has been taking the DS, and OTX surveys because they seem to like him better. When the LONG OTX became an option he aked me to sign up for it and I did. It seems like I can only get one every other day OTX Long. It also seems like my DH can only get a short one every other day too!
My question is....if I succeed at completing a long OTX then must my husband wait 24 hours before trying a short one? Or can he try a short one the next day, say 18 hours after I completed the long survey?
Does that make sense? We know it is one a day but wonder if the two are connected so that it is one every 24 hours regardless of if it is the long or short version. Also, is it a problem that he does the short ones and a different person (ME) does the long ones???
Thanks!
That just happened to me - not returning to the SR page. I was checking to see if other people had it happen a lot today. I haven't ever heard about crediting later. I won't hold my breath, but it's nice to know all might not be lost ;)Quote:

:confused::confused::confused:
Is anyone have a problem with GF daily survey loading tonight? I get the options to check, then click and get a white page with nothing loading. It has been about an hour.
We just did both the GF and the YTC within the last hour or so and they worked fine. Hopefully yours is working by now too.

Hello!
I'm having some issues with some surveys not crediting, and I'm not sure why.
I have taken My Thought survey on 09/05 and was credited, but on 09/06, 09/07, 09/08 have not been credited.
Also, I've never been credited for any SSI - 2 surveys I've done (only 2 thankfully)
I thought there was just a delay in getting them credited, but will I ever see that credited to my account? Why does this happen and how do I fix it? :computer:
And for some reason I haven't been able to load any Surveyhead pages. I click on the link, and it just brings me back to Sunshine's main page. Does that mean there are no surveys available?
I have used Firefox for all of my surveys. (And have Windows 7 if that helps)
Any help is appreciated! I want to continue doing this, but not if I don't get credited :) (it is fun though)
I'll let the "experts" weigh in. They have been doing a fabulous job of helping new members this week!!!
Ok, first, are you clearing cookies between doing the surveys each day? If not.....that sounds like it would fix your first problem at least.Quote:

Remove all cookies.
Both SSI and AMP/My Thought Counts should credit within an hour or two.
I]m looking at my settings and I think there may be something else you need, but I'm not sure where it is on Firefox. I use IE for SR and FF for everything else.
Have you been able to enter any of your demographic info on that page? If your info is in there, then it does reroute you to the SR homepage if there are no surveys available. If you haven't put that info in there, then I don't know.Quote:

I have not been clearing cookies at all. I've still had no problems getting credited for SSI 1, and Greenfield, so I thought it was something with the other ones. I'll try that and hopefully tomorrow I'll have better results!
Thanks for your suggestions! I hope they work!
I see your other problem now! After SSI credits (the first one), you need to clear cookies before you do SSI-2 or it will NOT credit. NOTE: Clear cookies first thing in the morning, before you start surveys. When you clear between the two SSI surveys, make sure you have received the survey credits you should FIRST. Greenfield is the only one that does not track by cookies, so this one doesn't matter. If you clear cookies too soon, you may accidentally delete your cookies before they have a chance to credit.Quote:

Thanks for all the help! I can't wait to try this tomorrow :) I've never cleared cookies before so I never thought of it.
Thank you!!
You can actually clear cookies and try whichever SSI you did not get credit for again today. MTC will only let you in every 24 hours. But SSI lets you try each until you get credit for it.Quote:

I wonder if it doesn't have something to do with the time of night u are doing it. If they run a script or update of some sort most companies do that in the middle of the night to avoid issues for their customers. I wonder if u aren't starting a survey and then sometimes they are running the script in the middle of ur survey.
That said I think perhaps a step away from surveys for a day or two might be a good idea. If they have u that frustrated and upset then u should take a break. They are supposed to be a fun way to earn extra money and not a source of frustration. In the end we all have to choose how we spend our time and I don't think u should waste it on something that gives u so much frustration and so little joy.
Good luck!
That is the exact same message I got, so it may have been the same survey. However, I actually did get credit for it! I was totally surprised! So maybe you will too!Quote:

SOmething isn't working with my SH crediting process, obviously - I take one, it congratulates me, goes back to SR and no credit. I've cleared cookies prior to taking one, settings on my computer are unchanged, I don't go too fast, etc etc - but I keep not getting credit! :confused::confused: Other surveys are crediting without issues, too.
That just happened to me too! :confused: Is there something wrong with the SH router? :confused:Quote:

This is the first time it has happened to me too, and it was like a 15 minute survey so it shouldn't have been an issue with length. :confused:Quote:

I'm not complaining but if there is a pattern here - I think it is necessary to note. :)
I just completed a SH survey and got this page:
"Thank you for sharing your opinions!
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and opinions! Your answers have been received and this survey is now completed.

Um....isn't that the Greenfield end page? It did not go back to SR...in fact, it is still sitting on that page (I haven't closed the tab yet), and it did not credit either.
I don't have any advice for you all :( but I was just able to complete a SH survey and received credit for it.
So if your SH didn't credit correctly, was it a survey about a tv show? (hope that is non-specific enough to post)
The one that I received credit for was...Quote:

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
thanks
That is the one I took yesterday and never received credit for. Looks like maybe there is a pattern...Quote:

If it ended in a generic white thank you page....those are SUPPOSED to credit eventually, but may not be for a while. It just means you might get two credits one day--that's what the extra one is from. The only survey that I know that will eventually credit for those is Greenfield and the Daily Survey for 0.80.Quote:
