    No less than three instances in the past week was I denied credits following the completion of a survey!

    The biggest culprit is 'Peanut labs".....for example,...I did a survey which was centered on my use of certain brands of tea.....such as Lipton and a couple of others . The survey lasted no less than 35 minutes. When I was finished.....the message stated.."Thank  you  for participating".....the next page was then  automatically switched to something totally un-related....with NO link to click on.....I was forced ( after about 2 minutes of trying to figure out what was going on)... to exit the page.....and guess what...the 150 credits were NOT given!  

    Another offer of 53 credits was offered for simply filling out a form...about "Knee injuries".........I did exactly what was required...filling name, address, telephone# as well as email address and answering all the required to answer questions,.....but page after page kept coming up to the point where no more info was asked......survey over...right????   Again...NO credits given,....I must say.....this is quite an insult to my intelligence,....and I'm deeply angered by this nonsense. 

    This site has some great features, as the game itself...but in as much as the monetary aspect seems to be paramount......tends to discourage my continued participation here,....and I certainly am aware that ..." nobody  gives a hoot!!!"

    Surveys s*ck,

    surveys pay low or nothing at all,

    surveys look like scam frequently.

    One guy had credits taken off his account from such company (was this resolved BTW?)

    Get used to it or do what I did: Turn away. The time of my life is too precious to be wasted that way.

    I've never had any problems getting the credits. The only problem for me lately is the surveys are getting fewer and fewer.

    I hear ya, OP. WGT really has to work out some better form of "pre-survey' ripping us off. You answer a pile of questions, which takes time - sometimes for as much 10-15 minutes only to be redirected to some other page, usually their generic survey page....and no credits.

     

    NPDOR was a terrible one they've ripped me off so many times I was angry enough to file support with them and WGT. Of course, no action from either party.

     

    WGT would do well to remember many of us make over $25/hr and these surveys we do are no more than 'Hey I got an extra bit of time.' It's not about the money it's about customer service. If a clothing store tries to rip me off  buying a $10 pair of socks am I gonna buy a $500 jacket from them?

     

    The survey money is )(*&)(*& peanuts. But handle it well, if you have this option.

    Good for you,..I'm glad to read someone is is benefiting,.....it seems to me that no matter which option I choose to click on to  initiate  the  survey......I get "disqualified".....this is about 99.9% of the time,.....not to mention those that are put out...but are "no longer available!"....( Why then are they there????)

     

    And BTW...I know I'm spitting into the wind!!

    Sorry, I remember neither the name of the player (which is familiar for me from the Forum) nor the company - I'm not involved in these things.

    It was quite a thread though, maybe around Dec. 2012.

    I did the real age survey, how long before I get credits?

    Thanks
