  You got away lightly, only 10 minutes wasted - I have had 30 minutes wasted before I got the message blah, blah, blah

  But as always I try and look at the positives, in that time I may have been playing and lost a sleeve of balls in the water.

  You guys complaining just don't fit the profile the company issuing the survey is looking for.  It's simple....it's not anything else.

  Get bitter all you want that you aren't just having free credits thrown your way like beads off a Mardi Gras float, but you have to fit the corporation's pigeon hole to get the credits....and you can't just blow through the survey clicking random answers, either.  Maybe you, OP, aren't doing this, but many are.

  I haven't missed but one or two surveys all month this month.  And, it isn't magic.  I just happen to be in the demographic they are looking for.

  If you think you are blind with frustration now, try signing up for survey sites (about 12 of them) and watch your email inbox fill with survey offers.  Now, try and qualify for 50% of those.  Rejection is part of the game/life.  It just is what it is.  Move on and invest your anger somewhere it will actually have an effect.

  I get dumped from the survey 1 in 10 times roughly. I could not afford to play without this free stuff.

  For every survey that screws you, there are 100 that will pay off, I swear to God.

  So don't dig in your pocket to play, keep trying and it will pan out & pay out.

  I got pissed a few times at the survey disqualification after spending 30 mins. on it. But I moved on and completed so many that, it has really paid off for me.

  Agreed...total waste of time...either fix the issues or remove from the site.

  I get dumped at least 6 out of 10, but I wouldn't be here with them (+ the offers ... Mom and step dad's B-days coming up ... with some luck, I'll pick almost as many 'free' credits  as I did with Mother's Day shopping)

   

  That said ... it would be nice if there was a 1 credit per question answered minimum.

  Getting 10 minutes/50 questions in and be booted with a 5 credit 'reward' is insulting.

  Well I think lately there have not been many new surveys

   

  only thing I can say is that if I don't qualify for a survey , keep that survey off my page please. I only want to see surveys I can potentially qualify for not ones I have been disqualified from.

   

  other than that surveys are great when they come in bunches.

  I feel the pain of all those who have wasted countless time on the surveys only to get denied the credits at the end. As i was once in your shoes.. I sure don't miss doing that :)

  My advice to you guys is read the forums for gameplay tips, go on you tube and watch videos of the bollox (or other top players) and practice....

  Hopefully you can get to the point where you don't have to rely on the surveys for credits. As there are many other avenues for credits..

  Ready go's, match play challenges, skins, blitz and cc tourneys for credits can all be frustrating at times, but at least you don't waste your time answering a bunch of questions you don't even care about to just be denied the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
