Nope I'm with you too. I'm aiming for the 20 surveys this month level which isn't looking too good either but anything is better than nothing in my book.Quote:

you are not alone. We are going to Disney in May so I am on the same mission. I have only missed 2 so far...today would make 3. Maybe DH, but I doubt it since he could not get one all weekend. I got one on Saturday but not Sunday. Thankfully I got the OTX ones and they were worth .80 this weekend. Whoo hoo!!!! Hopefully I will still get the 25, only time will tell.
I have tried taking 8 different surveys today with nothing to show for it.....I have missed the $8 by 1 - BOOOOO!!!! 25 should be obtainable. But I liked to get my 25 out of the way in the beginning of the month so I can relax, if need be, toward the end....
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the 15, but I don't think I'll be able to do it either, oh well.Quote:

Must not be a holiday, weekend survey's just posted! could explain why after all morning of not qualifying for one I was just able to get a fairly easy one.
I was going to give up thinking it was a lost cause for today.
I just got a survey... maybe they reloaded
I'm just hoping for 15 this month...sigh
whoo, I did manage to get one FINALLY. I know it is only .80 but .80 is .80. Good luck everyone!!
Still no new surveys for me :(
I was able to get a survey today...after a dry spell. :) I want to try the OTX survey...I got one yesterday, but I'm not sure what time I got it. I know it says you can only do them every 24 hours.
Woohooooo! Cleared my cookies and was able to get one!!!
KEEP TRYING EVERYONE!:sunshine2:
Good luck to all!
I was able to get one for DH to complete! :sunshine:
My 'window' doesn't open up til about 2pm my time, but I was able to get one all weekend. Rather, I had DH do them for me.
I am now #12 on the Big Board, so I am PRAYING I can keep getting the surveys and OTX surveys and maybe push me to #10. I have never been on the big board, although I consistently earn $50-75 per month on SR. Frustrating! I'm just not a huge shopper online, and I think that's what helps a lot of members get in that Top Ten!
OK, I was just doing a really fun one on movie characters, and it got stuck in a loop, asking me the same 4 questions about a certain movie over and over...
I am always consistent with my survey info, but when I try to put info in for my husband or my daughter, I always use my email addy. My husband doesn't want any junk generated on his (I'm lucky if he'll do the survey for me!) and my daughters is very limited on what it will accept. It never occured to me that 3 different demograpics on the same addy could be considered fraudulent. They are consistently the same 3 sets of info.
From what I gather, unless you're always the same on your demographics this isn't good. But if you've been doing that a while they don't seem to have tagged your account as fraudulent - maybe because you have been consistent in the different demographics sets. Who knows - there are many people on here better qualified than I to answer your post, and I don't want to be thought presumptious!!! At this point though for myself I'd feel safer using a different set of demographics with the address of the person they belong to.
I also want to clarify something. After I post about making some mistakes on my demographics, here I am feeling small after getting scolded for it and smaller yet after others post about how consistent and careful they are. I would like to point out that actually I HAVE been fairly consistent for over 2 months, except for 2 bad days this month last week that I know I had when I was actually sick with nasty headaches and exhausted - when I did get more in a desperate hurry to get a survey and get thru! Those days I didn't catch my errors very well. Other days, I was certainly more careful about catching any errors or typos in my demographics. And now I shall certainly be the model of consistency - and maybe not be so stubborn about trying to get surveys when I'm not feeling well.
Forgive me this too long post.
What I do is I have a gmail account set up where the address without a dot in it is for Mike to complete surveys through with his demographics and another variation of that email address with a dot for my demographics. 2 "separate" emails for 2 separate people and its not hard to keep track of. Might be something to think about if you are worried.Quote:

I did get the daily survey credit this morning. I know, probably not what you wanted to hear.
I also got mine.
Darn! Thanks.
After completing 0 in December and 4 or so in January, I am really trying to get back in the swing of things....but unpaid surveys don't help me want to spend more time taking more surveys!!
I was able to complete 2 surveys yesterday. The first one never made it back to the SR screen that says I completed the survey although on the survey it said I completed the survey. :confused: So, I tried to do another...just in case...and I was able to complete that one also. I still have not received credit. Usually my credits show up early the next day.
Has anyone else had this happen?
The credits are usually loaded at either 9:30am or 12:30pm, so hopefully they will be there soon. :sunshine2:Quote:

I'm glad to see at least some of you are getting surveys. I can't seem to qualify for any lately in either the daily or the Your Opinion Counts.
I must be in the demographic they just don't care to hear from. ;)
I want to jump up and down and have a big party. :party: For the first time in 11 days, I was able to qualify and complete and survey! :cooldance:
hate to ask but anyone see credit from yesterday's surveys?
I did!!!! Woo Hoo, finally got one, had only one in December, and have been non qualified about a bazillion times until yesterday.

Ok I think somehow mine is counting for today even though I completed it yesterday afternoon because I have that darn exceeded my limit message.
Today I tried 3-4 times to qualify for survey, answered ?s on one for 10 minutes just to be told I didn't fit what they were looking for. So then suddenly I got the you have exceeded daily limit page!! :confused: I didn't even qualify for one, so how could I have gotten that! And yesterday's did credit, so it wasn't that. Anyway, I went ahead and tried with a different email addy and got one - so I hope that was OK.
I've already had 2x times where somehow I ended up with 2 credits; I don't want it to happen again and have people get suspicious - yipes!
Re - my post above - I did get credit for 2 surveys, but I have not the faintest understanding why! I got kicked out of several surveys and then was told I had exceeded the daily limit. But I had not even gotten to complete one - so how on earth did I get credit for one that I got kicked out of??!!
Because I knew I had not actually gotten a survey completed, I did try again.
And now I am dismayed to see that I got double credit again. Hopefully I don't get any trouble for it, because I didn't TRY to get that!
I am guessing that yesterdays surveys have already posted then? If so maybe they gave you credit for my survey. Ha Ha :rotfl: After 11 days of not qualifying for a survey I managed to complete a really long survey and I have no credit for it. :cry: Off to try to get a survey for today.Quote:

Ok, the same wierd thing that happened to me 2 days ago just happened again. I was taking a survey that was about joining an online focus group. It told me after a bunch a ?s that I didn't fit what they were looking for and kicked me out. I was sent to the take another survey page, but when I clicked that then I got the exceeded daily limit message again!!!
The other day I went ahead and took a survey again because I thought I hadn't really done one and why would I get credit for one I got kicked out of?? But then I got 2 credits!!
So now, with a different survey, I get the same sort of thing. And now I am hesitant to try another survey, because I am afraid I'll get 2 credits again - and that would make 4 times this month, which is just beyond reasonable. So I am not sure what to make of this!!:confused: :confused:
I guess if it said that I exceeded the daily limit, that means I'll get credit? I sure didn't get any congratulations page though.

That's just my opinion, and from what happened in the past is probably a good indication that you'll still get credit.
JM2C!

Took me a bit to get your abbreviation there! But thanks - I think that you are probly right. Nothing like getting paid for getting booted, I guess!! Might be the first times I've gotten paid for NOT qualifying for something - guess I won't quibble.:rotfl:Quote:
