I'm curious about this, too. I was trying to figure out if it was on a 24 hour cycle, so I tried to take one this morning, expecting to get the exceeded daily limit message, since I took yesterday's about 1:00. But it let me take one. I hadn't cleared cookies or changed anything. :confused: Hope this wasn't a problem. When it let me into a survey on a topic I actually felt knowledgable about, I wasn't going to back out!

I am assuming the rules are the same as they have been for a while - 1 survey per day. I think they use 24 hours to be descriptive.
Just a heads up....I just took a daily survey on office supplies, towards the end I rec'd an error page "Sorry, the shop is closed for maintenance"...something along that text anyway.
I refreshed the page and was brought back to the previous page and had to re-input my answers, then it completed successfully at the SR page.
So just in case anyone gets the error, try refresh first :)
Ever since the GF ban has been lifted I have had such good luck with surveys. I have gotten in on the first try each day for the last 4 days and have gotten interesting and not too long or tedious surveys. I hope my luck holds out for a while!
My luck ran out today - I was almost done with one on carbonated beverage and suddenly it froze, and said something about content length not set to zero, null - whatever that all means. But it would not refresh so I had to close the window and try again, and I got the no surveys for you page.:computer:
I haven't been able to get into either the Daily Survey or the SM survey all evening. I get to the preferences check-off page and when I hit submit I get taken to a page that states there are technical difficulties and try back later. This is happening on both surveys so I guess the problem is on GF's end.
I keep getting this message this morning when I try for a daily survey:
Sorry, but the system has encountered an internal error and cannot go on with the interview at this stage.
Please check back later.
Then it closes out two tabs, effectively kicking me out of Greenfield and SR. It is over 24 hours since I took the last one, so I know that's not the problem. I tried clearing cookies, but that didn't help. :( I had no trouble doing an OTX survey so I don't think it is my computer. Luckily, I was able to file a trouble report.
It's not just you, I'm getting the same message this morning, so I guess they are still have troubles? :confused:Quote:

I did a very LONG survey today (over an hour) on a new movie due out this summer. It had me watch a preview of the movie twice and answer specific questions about what I watched. I normally back out of surveys that involve video because it takes forever to download on my dial up connection but I had already been kicked out of 5 other surveys so I went ahead with this one. When I finally got to the end it did not take me back to the SR page. I thought I was gonna cry! I did however get the exceeded limit message so I'm sure it's ok and will credit. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.
Yep, I got credit. Unfortunately, I haven't qualified for one since then. :p Oh, well!Quote:

I'm having the same exact problem! I had a few checked off ones early this morning but it would not let me take them and kicked me off? Now there is nothing to qualify for? :computer:Quote:

Hey, my fingers AND toes are crossed for you.:sunshine: I have had exactly the same problem today. However, I have always found weekends to be the hardest to get a survey. I don't think they load new ones on the weekends, so perhaps tomorrow, if they load some new ones, we'll all have better luck.Quote:

thanks ever so much for your encouragement - :) i really needed that today as it has been a crappy day for me.
No option and no surveys for me today - I must have been bad!:rotfl:
Actually, just got to wait for more options tomorrow, probably.
At least I got an OTX.
Is anyone else having a problem this morning? I'm not having problems with any other sites, but I can click till the cows come home on the GF banner (and the link to use if the banner doesn't work) to no avail. I've even tried right clicking and telling it to open that way and it just hangs.
:confused:
I just tried and did not have issue, I have been on the 20 hour or so rotation so I did not even bother filling in the information but I did get to the demographics page...:) Hope it works for you soon!
I just tested the survey page and was directed to a survey just fine. It was slow, and I didn't qualify. However, I was offered a survey and redirected correctly when I didn't qualify. I will email SunshineGuy and let him know as I think he will be back in town before Tricia and Cindy. I assume that they are all already aware of any issue we might be having technically as they have all been checking in periodically, but it won't hurt to alert them anyway!
I havent been able to get it to open at all using IE for the past week and a half or so. But it works just fine if I use Firefox, and its crediting so I just do it that way.
I did Daily Surveys on Friday, Saturday and Sunday but I never received credit for the Friday survey. I kept checking all day today hoping it was going to show up late but no luck! I've never not had a Daily Survey credit after I got a CONGRATULATIONS page. But... I am thankful that at least we are able to do the surveys again. :)
It worked fine when I got home from work and again this morning so it must have resolved itself.Quote:

I'm having the same issue with IE but it works fine if I use my AOL browser. And I downloaded Firefox but haven't tried it yet.Quote:

Let me explain that I work night shift...worked 12 hours the last 4 nights in a row...so I am VERY tired. Then to add to it, my kids had a 2 hour delay today, so I slept for one hour, then got up to get them to school....slept for another 2 hours...then got my son off the kindergarten bus,etc. So I am just a "little" confused about what really was today, what may have been yesterday, etc! :confused: But I really swear that I did two today... (or I am going crazy....) I will be curious to see what happens to my account.
It did let me get in this am, of coure I didn't have enough time to sit here and try to qualify, but 5 hours before my 24 hour mark i was let in
I love it that Firefox is working so well for people right now. :)
I finally got my second survey for Feb yesterday, I was excited! And it even credited today.
So if you guys get a never-ending survey about cold and flu products, never fear, it will end one day.
I especially love getting those because I'm more into alternative-medicine, so I have a differing answer than many other Americans would, and I love giving my voice to their surveys!
Did anyone receive credits for yestday's Daily Survey? I know I completed it but no credit. Also didn't get credit for the the OTX survey I did yesterday. Maybe things are just running behind. I hope. I want that last $3 to make SM
I actually got credit twice for yesterday, even though I only did one, maybe I got yours 2, I'm not sure whay to do, I don't want to get banned from surveys, I think I'll just skip today to even it out.
Yesterday was odd. I got a survey that asked me a few questions to see if I qualified for some online community forum. I didn't, and got redirected to a different page. I checked the GF page again, and had no options, so just let it be. I wasn't sure I would get credit, but I did! So I feel like I got paid really for not qualifying for something - whatever, guess I'll take it.
I did a survey yesterday but didn't get credit today and when I try to take one today it is telling me that I already exceeded my limit. I did do it last night around 7 pm so I can understand the exceeded limit but why no credit. Did they credit for today?
Nope, mine didn't credit yet. I know Greenfield downloads them in the mornings ?around 8:30AM, and then around 12:30PM. Perhaps everything is running a little late today? We can hope so, anyway.:sunshine:
I didn't receive credit for the survey I took yesterday either. Definitely got the congratualtions page but no credit yet :confused: This happened to me one day last week too. I've done hundreds of daily surveys and last week was the first time that one didn't credit. Hope it doesn't happen again today.. it was LONG!
I knew they ran around 12 or 12:30 and when I didn't see it by then I figured I would post, just glad its not only me. This would be my 8th for the month, I so want the extra .80 especially since being banned I am glad to be able to do the surveys again.
I got my credit for 2/28, I don't know when it posted but it was before 12:30
i also did not recieve credit for yesterdays survey!
Nor did I. Maybe it's a manual loader?Quote:
