From what I understand, the survey company is concerned about people not spending the full amount of time on the surveys, and the surveys are meant to take about 20 minutes.

Now, the way that they are deciding to give credit or not is a little weird. If you are just fast at surveys and are HONEST that it only took you 5-10 minutes, you may not get credit. But if you do it fast and lie about how long it took (which I do not advocate), it sounds like you DO get credit.

I think this is a bug that they need to work out because it is definitely causing some problems.

Looks like Nielsen must have a problem with all of their surveys. The Ambien one that I did some time back was by Nielson and it started off advertising a movie and then went into the drug. Never did make it back to the completed screen. As I continued to do surveys, any time Nielsen came up on the screen, I immediately exited out of it and tried another one.

I really liked the universal remote. I'd like to have it!!!!!

No Kidding. It only took me about 5-10 minutes.......so that's what must have happened. Dumb if you ask me.

I do read really fast......my family freaks when they loan me a book and I hand it back to them the next day.

On the other hand......I have done surveys (a different company I belong to) that have taken me 30 minutes. They just seem to go on and on.....asking you the same questions by changing the words around. Like I am going to change my answers cause they phrased it differently!!

watch out for the ipsos coffee questionaire...
it asks you ALL the questions, then says sorry this survey is full, and then sends you back to sunshine as non qualifing.

OH my gosh, I have to read here before doing ANY surveys.

Started with the demographics, went into a survey for which I'm well qualified for (coffee bevvies), went ALL the way through, then (paraphrasing) 'these questions are for something or other purposes', what's your date of birth, education, and income level (which they HAD already, or should have had), then:

"Thank you for sharing your opinions!
Unfortunately, the quota group that you qualified into is complete, so on this occasion, we thank you for your time but will not be asking you to complete the remainder of the questionnaire."


Not cool.

The hubster took the day off b/c I was up until 4am cleaning our old house, and he knew I wouldn't be at my best with DS. Yay for hubby (and for his job which is OK with that).

So I had him try to take some surveys, and he got the Ipsos one as well. So now we have more copy/pastes and info for you.

first asks if you work for xyz companies, then age, then "is your income above, or below 20K, then you do the survey.

Then the clever little line..."Please answer the following questions about your household composition for verification purposes only."

Birthdate, educational level, and zip code. And he was kicked out, too.


They have those things from the start....

Though hey, are there just bunches of people taking these surveys from Tacoma, WA? If so I'd like to meet 'em!


Hope the extra info helps.

Ugh, I didn't read here first and did the Ipsos coffee one too. Made it all the way through, did the demographics and got the "sorry, we've reach quota" crud too.

SO frustrated right now. I tried five different surveys this morning and didn't qualify for any of them, then got to a page from SR I've never seen before. It said "sorry, you don't qualify for any surveys." Is this normal? Has anyone else seen this? Hopefully I can still make my 25!

Unfortuately... it is normal... I see that message frequently... I'm hoping they will load new surveys to try during the weekend... it means you have tried all the ones they have to offer for your stats. If you have another person in the house, you can get them to do a survey. I'm going to see if I can get my hubby to do one.

Are the survey credits supposed to appear on your account the day after you complete the survey? I completed one on both June 1st and 2nd and have not received credit. Can someone help??

[~Kathie]

Surveys do not credit automatically.

Surveys done on Friday, Saturday & Sunday usually credit on Monday.

Monday -Thursday usually credit the next day.

Hope that helps!
