    How long have you been a member for, and do you fill it in everyday? I've only just joined it.

    Has anyone else experienced this?. I've began a few surveys and answered all sorts of questions, straight after receiving them only to be told they have had enough recipients for that survey. Con or what? :mad:
    I love this place :j:T:j

    Half the time what they actually mean is that you don't fit the profile they're looking to survey, but I agree that it's annoying to be told they have surveyed enough people. I keep on getting screened out from ValuedOpinions and I don't even get anything from JuicyBrains any more, all going downhill!

    Not impressed with home of research, just got their email to say their new website is available to log in to for existing members, only to have my fears confirmed. That they haven't been adding the points on and haven't credited me for the £25 focus group i did for them.

    Have sent them a snotty email and if they don't credit me fully i will take what i can and not bother doing any more surveys for them.

    I get screened out of Valued Opinions a lot as well, they are bad for screening you out half way though a survey. I was told once that once they hit the quota for the survey, then even if you are one question from the end you will be screened out. Juicy Brains surveys have always been thin on the ground. I have had a few recently via other hosts, for only 75p a time. So they are farming them out and paying less to save money.

    ALL THE TIME! I can understand when they ask one or two questions and are then told they don't need you as they have enough ppl in that group, but when the actually take over 15 pages/clicks to answer and do ask your opinions several times...

    Con, every time. Sorry but there is no excuse for it. The worst for this I have found are Ciao (did a 25 minute survey for them before I got to the end where they asked: and for our data please can you tell me if you are male female. I answered, I got screeed out. 25 minutes...:mad: :mad: :mad: )

    Opinion World, To be honest, not even sure why I am a member any more. I dont actually get anything from it. I am going to end this one I think. Most of the surveys I am not applicable for, the others I just get screened out. In the rare chance I do get to do one, I dont get anything but an annoying set of boxes to scratch out to give to charities I have no care for. Why can I not select my own charities such as breast cancer, demetia or mental health? I don't want to give money to charities I have no strong belief or knowledge of, how do I even know weather or not to trust them? does the cash go to charities or a big manager style industry?:mad: I do still do some surveys, but only after dozens and dozens of questions, opinion based questions and downloaded stuff, I get told "sorry, we don't need you" or words to that effect.

    have to say the rest are not too bad: GTM, valued opinions, ipsos, pinecone (though still not heard from them in several months now), lightspeed, zoompanel. I get screened out on these too, but atleast its not so long winded!
