Global Test Market - surveys stopped ?

Just wondered if anyone else is with Global Test Market ? I've been with them for a few years now, and always get several surveys a day ( almost to the point of spam, but I'm not complaining ! ) But I haven't had anything from them for a couple of weeks now, just wondered if anyone else has noticed the same thing ? Would be a shame if they're on the way out, they've always been one of the better survey sites.

    I get about 3/4 e-mails a week from them with surveys so seems fine to me :-)

  • Maybe they're just not my friends any more then :-(
  • I seem to get more from them than before, about 2-3 a day. But then other months I get hardly any.

    I guess depends on who they are looking for at that particular time
  • I guess so - I was just curious as I've always had 3-4 emails a day, every day ( albeit I get screened out of a lot of them ). Maybe they're getting smarter in who they send them to, so they'll only send surveys that we qualify for now.

    It's not a problem, I was just curious. Thanks for the replies.
  • Actually in the last couple of days I've had a total splurge of surveys from them though I didn't qualify for many.Maybe they're accidentally sending me yours as well as my own Ebe? ;)

    I'm sure it'll kick in again.

    Hi, I find I often get screened out of their surveys when I am almost near the end. I've been with them for over a year now and only have 250 points. Maybe its just my bad luck. I dont tend to do the surveys that just enter you into their competitions tho. Do you think this may be the reason?
  • Hi 2+4,

    I'm no expert but I doubt very much not entering their prize draw surveys has anything to do with it,it's more likely your profile doesn't fit what they're looking for,though again that's just a guess.

    Your post prompted me to check my own points balance as I hadn't in a while,it was 615 and I joined about 2 months ago I think.I do get screened out of a huge number of their surveys but I was pleasantly surprised to see how the points had accumulated.

    Hopefully things will improve and you'll have better luck in future,all the best! :)
  • I've been with them for about a year had 3 pay outs and am on 400 points.

    the screen out % is very high, but the surveys are normally quite good when you do qualify for one.

    Like I said before, sometimes I qualify for loads that get sent, sometimes, none, other times I don't get sent any, other times I get sent loads.

    The value of the surveys I think is quite good compared to most average of £1-£2 I think the conversion is.
  • i dont seem to qualify for that many, not keen on them so much

  • I'm generally happy with GTM but be wary of a GMI survey on British Opticians!I just completed what was a long and dull one only to be told at the end (yep,you've guessed it) sorry,but we've reached our target audience,or some such nonsense.No points.Rip off! :mad:
