I just spent like 20 - 25 minutes doing a survey about broth and stocks (for cooking) and then it said sorry you did not qualify for this survey and gave me 50 points instead of 1000 the email said I would get. I HATE when surveys do that!

That is the main reason I stopped doing surveys for dear sweet Marie.

Those type of surveys are just crap. Lightspeed and Greenfield use to do that to me - not anymore. I have stopped doing a lot of them except Harris Polls & Buzzback because I know those will at least pay or give points and not "cheat" you with that "you don't qualify crap".

I also hate it when that happens. I have to say, for every bunch that does that, I still do surveys because I enjoy getting checks, amazon gift cards, and merchandise.

this reminds me that I have to go back to that survey company and uncheck the box for allowing phone surveys. two weeks ago someone called from Marie Brighton and did a phone survey with no incentive.

I'm sorry to hear that. I've never had that problem with her.

I do have to say that I love doing surveys; I'm making almost $200 a month from doing them (I'm counting the ones that pay you with gift cards as well).

I've never heard of that place but have had that same happen so many times that I don't care to do too many surveys these days.

You are talking about www.globalopinionpanels.com (AKA Synovate), aren't you? I can't believe they would have the balls to call you and expect you to answer their questions with no promise of incentive. Incentive is why we do these surveys!
