trial pay is a rip

  i have just finished (or almost finished) two of the trial pay surveys.......on both occasions i spent 10-15 minutes answering their questions.....on one of the surveys there was a bar on the bottom showing what percentage of the survey i had completed......got to the point of finishing the survey and they said "now just a few questions about you"......finished answering their "few questions" and a sign came onto the screen "we're sorry but you don't qualify for this survey"......THIS IS AFTER ANSWERING ALL THE QUESTIONS, THEY NOW HAVE ALL THE ANSWER'S THAT WERE REQUESTED IN THE SURVEY............IF THAT'S NOT A F'ING SURVEY  WHAT IS

  on the second survey, the results were the same......finished all the questions and then they said only a couple of questions about you................SAME RESULT......"SORRY, YOU DIDN'T QUALIFY".

  THIS IS TOTAL BS

  there is something terribly wrong with the surveys lately. Whereas they paid off nicely in the past, now it seems they lead you on and then dump you. WGT really needs to take an interest in getting them to work better.

  I'll bet that there attaching spyware to your machine during the process. Lately whenever i do my weekly PC maintenance there is always something left behind that Malwarebytes finds on my system from media5.wgt.com that identifies itself as such

  well.....guess what, another day another survey....this time ampario for 150 credits, spent 15 minutes answering questions about what news channels i watch, how much time i watch each channel, what my opinion was of each channel, which other television channels i watch.  after all that, once again, 15 minutes of answering very detailed questions that obviously they will use and sell the results to the television industry and i get absolutely nothing from them......the survey didn't just go away, or freeze up, they actually said "sorry, you don't qualify".....this seems to be their legal way out of not paying the credits that they should...........WGT...THIS IS A RIP OFF, THEY ARE USING YOU AND US TO GET THE INFORMATION THAT THEY WANT AND THEN DON'T HOLD UP THEIR END AND PAY THE CREDITS.........

  anyone out there having the same problems.

  Sometimes they don't pay but it beats a blank. I just did one on salsas etc for 450 credits.  Wasn't that long and not boring.

  Same here, on and on but 'sorry you do not qualify'.

  And yes they are VERY BAD as of late.

  Just dont be honest on the surveys, Like some are not honest on here, you have to change it up if you tell them your white, thats a no no, if you tell them  you are not Latino, thats a NoNo. If you tell them your black and latino desent, thats a Yes!!! if you tell them you make less than 25 grand thats even better.

  If you tell them a slum zip code, thats even even better.  Never give them a rich zip code, or that your white or you make over 25 grand and never ever tell the truth in surveys.

  I did one yesterday (ampario)... took about 15-20 minutes total.  Gave them my real info and i am not a minority... and made 450 credits.  They do work.

  Just my 2 cents.

  Hadn't done any for a few weeks so I just gave one a try. Chose the 450 Ampario, got the film one, took 10 minutes, credits added instantly.
