    Fed up w/MyPoints

    They have reduced the points, many of the surveys that you spend a lot of time on, answering MANY questions, then say - "sorry you didn't qualify" and you get NOTHING

    A LOT of the survey companies are like that now. I spent 10 mins doing a survey today, only to be told I didn't qualify. It's beyond ridiculous.

    i just delete their surveys - I only do the email bonus points, monthly searches and occasionally shop thru's
    I do same with same as mysurvey now - and global test market - both send millions of surveys you do not quakufy for
    SB surveys are the absolute worst. they say her a survey for 10 min -60 SB - you do a screener and up comes you have qualified for a 55 minute survey! then the next you try it tells you half way or 10 min in that the survey is full but it stays on the list.
    And they all want us to be honest when they are not "haha- sometimes we are looking for certain occupations...really means if you check one the do NOT want you
    why di they bother to ask us for profiles when they do not use them? I swear i have answered the same sb profile questions a million times

    I have done several (don't remember who sponsored) - that took up to 1/2 hr. - details involving stores, money, spent, etc. - then get the response... I did give up on the stupid medical/hospital one as well as the television one - no matter what you answer... nada - probably the same company. I need to figure out who that rip-off company is... they are getting all their info. for free!!

    I never do the MyPoints surveys either. I used to give the "wrong" answers so I could get screened out and still get the 10 points, but when even that started taking forever, I just started deleting the survey emails.
