I just stupidly tried to do some OTX ones. Kept getting disqualified. Finally did a game one and did the WHOLE thing. Got to the very end and the next screen said something like email to notify us of technical difficulty. I think this is a scam if this is happening to everyone. I mean, if we answer all the questions, they then just have to say there is a tech. diff. and don't have to pay for our time and answers, but still have our personal info.

i took one today on alcholic beverages and how many you drank in the past 7 days and when I got to the end, it told me to hit submit to complete the survey and then I got an internal error.

I got the same one and now there are no other surveys that I qualify for!

I did report it on the Daily Survey page, so hopefully Greenfield will get it fixed so that others will be able to submit their results and get credit.

today is definitely not my day for surveys - my whole household has tried but none of us can qualify for anything. i just attempted an otx survey on cigarettes, got through the whole thing, got a thank you and a page came up from global test market (another survey site) that said "sorry you don't qualify." what a crock that is after they got all my information and i spent about 20 minutes doing it. now when i try to do another otx survey it says i have reached my limit for the day and to try again tomorrow. I HATE OTX SURVEYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:

I agree with you about the OTX surveys. I just spent 30 minutes on an automobile ad survey for the MyThoughtsCount 1/13 survey. I got to the final classification questions, entered my age and hit submit. I was taken to a page that stated I had not answered some questions truthfully and therefore I was disqualified from the survey. I may not be thrilled with how old I am but I do not lie about anything including my age. I hadn't made any New Year's resolutions but I have changed my mind. I will no longer participate in any OTX surveys. My time is worth more than 70 cents and I am offended at being called a liar.

i got that same survey and that same message and last week and it really ticked me off - who are they to say that i am not honest about my age or any other information i am giving them - i'm 54 and proud of it so why would i lie about that or anything else. as you said, my time is definitely worth more than a lousy 70 cents so unless otx changes their survey practices they can kiss my participation goodbye.

Please keep this in mind per Tricia

PLEASE keep in mind that OTX is not saying that anyone is lying about their age intentionally. There is a glitch in their system right now such that if you have not yet had a birthday in 2008, it thinks that you are off by a year. It is not a judgment thing. It is strictly an error in their database that we have been seeing consistently since January 1 and I have not been able to find anyone to fix.

There is a problem w/ the OTX they are trying to fix. Basically your age is 2008 minus the year you were born, regardless of what month. Doesn't make it better that your time was wasted, I know, but they are not intentionally trying to deceive. The data gets dumped for unqualified surveys, so it was a waste of their time also.

Edit: Darnitall Catherine, you did it again LOL. I think I just type too slow

[marcymajor]

i understand what you are saying - i guess i am just so very frustrated that no matter how hard i try to qualify for an otx survey most of the time i get booted out by not qualifying or something or i get the thank you page but for some reason i don't get paid for the surveys i have completed. i hope you can see that i was just venting as i needed to get those things off my chest.

I too got the same error...I was looking forward to take the survey too.
