Completing Surveys - Bogus Ending

  I completed an extensive survey regarding global warming today only to have the final response be "Unfortunately you do not qualify for this survey, Thank you". I did not receive the promised credits due for completing the survey. I very much resent being told at the end of the survey that I don't qualify.  That would be 20 to 30 minutes of time I could have spent doing something more valuable or interesting.  If I encounter more of this in any subsequent survey it will be the last survey I do on this website.

  I had the exact same thing happen with a survey about firearm ownership. I've done quite a few surveys and been bounced from plenty, often after answering what I would consider "SURVEY" questions not qualifiiers ... but the firearms thing was by FAR the worst ever, 15 -20 min worth of answers.

  I doubt anyone at WTG pays attention to what goes on. The survey companys just stonewall if you complain to them ... Grin and bear it seems to be the only solution being offered.

  It happens a lot. I took 15 minutes to answer dozens of questions on one this morning before it said I didn't qualify. WGT should have words with these people and give them some guidelines.

  Also it is only 2 or 3 survey companies that do this. Remember which ones they are and just don't take their surveys.

  Interesting thought - why not follow it instead of hoping(!) to get a few credits from bogus surveys?

  No offence intended to anybody, but wouldn't it be possible for most of us to earn more than 2 $ per hour in a real job and spend the wage here?

  Dont forget to go to the support button and send in a claim ticket, i did a survey that was for 720 credits after i completed it, it never went to the payout screen. I went to to support button submitted a claim ticket and when i logged in yesterday the site had paid me the 720 credits and later that day i received 105 credits from another claim ticket that i had submitted, email wgt about it , but submit a claim ticket as sometimes you can bypass the middle man and go str8 to the source.hope it helps any and everyone.

  I didn't insult anybody but I feel like you do. If you feel fine the way you spend your time, it's o.k. for me. But, please, let me do it my way and express my thoughts as well.

  I simply don't share your view of spending leisure time. I feel like wasting valuable time of my life by grabbing for "free" credits in videos and surveys - both paying short of nothing here. Thus I rather take some small change to play when I can't do the real thing.

  So, yours may be bigger - congratulations! Get lucky your way but don't forget, it's not really yours but just a license.

  Have a nice day.
