ok so i take a survey and spend lots of time on them and i get 0 zen as a reward because some how i "do not qualify".

how do i not qualify its an survey on your opinion...

they should give you free zen anyway just for your time...

so those free zen for filling out this survey stuff is BS

not doing one of those surveys again unless they make the surveys give you free zen for taking your time to fill them out.

Transwarped to the "C-Store and Promotions" Feedback forum, since it's feedback on that system. This way the devs who deal with that system are more likely to see your concerns and suggestions.

You would be surprised how many offer you will qualify for if you "are" a single female with 2-3 children, low income, and use the most expensive item on their list.

Well actually, what they have said in the past is that that is a third party issue and they can do nothing about it.

ive also found being a white male who makes 100k a year to qualify you for alot of surveys. Also anyone do the poop survey yet? Be sure to tell them you have constant bloating and constipation on a regular basis

Yeah they are total bollocks.

Not only are they the biggest spam magnets imaginable (which is why of course you should set up an entirely separate E-mail addy etc for using them) but even for the ones that I seem to complete all the requirements for only about 1 in 5 actually pays up.

IMO this is fraud.

My favorite up until now was the Habit Survey. I'm like "cool, I love to eat at the Habit" start it, first question "What is your highest level of education?" I answer graduated college...disqualified.

Also, one complaint I have, some surveys disqualify you after you already answered some questions about the product and how you feel about (how many times you use it and the likes). I would like to cry foul on this, you pass the pre-qualifying questions and then go into the actual product, you start in on the actual survey and then all of a sudden your taken to the "you are disqualified page". Its like they got marketable information out off you, but rather then continuing, they cut you loose before they have to pay you.

Then there are the offers that never end, "Just enter a valid email address" that continue to cycle through offers with now end and no reward (Zen). Better yet, I took the car insurance one, completed it, got a ton of harassing phone calls, but again no Zen. The small ones work, watch a commercial, for like 2-3 Zen, but anything bigger and you are taking a risk of wasting your time.

I also report every single one that doesn't work as advertised, if the option exists, which on some take you to completely other websites with no way to report a scam.

1 in 5, not in this planet

tired of peanut labs, sponsor ay pays more regularly and less racial bias, Ive found that if you answer like a rich old hispanic woman they wont disqualify me as quick.. but yea its all a scam, 50% payouts...
