    Just wanted to let people know that I finally got a DS after having major issues with them for weeks (I actually do them on Neobux because they are worth twice as much, but they are the same surveys).

    For weeks now, I was getting lots of tickboxes, but when I selected "Next" it always gave the the "Sorry we have no surveys for you" screen.

    Tonight, I decided to try them on Chromium (Linux version of Chrome), instead of Firefox.

    Dunno if it was just coincidence, but I actually was able to go through to the qualification stage. I must have been DQ'd from a dozen surveys before finally getting one on grocery shopping.

    Chuffed because I had been getting DQ'd without even any qualifying questions, even though loads of tickboxes were marked "True".

    So anyone else having the same problem might want to try a different browser, if you've not already.

    I use google chrome mostly, not gonna jump through hoops anymore to get a survey worth around 30 to 40 pence!

    Swagbucks and survey people should be jumping through hoops to get us to do this for peanuts!

    For real!

    I know, Swagbucks pays peanuts compared to other sites. The DS is worth $1.44 (almost £1) on Neobux.

    And their "Trusted Surveys" are worth double on iPoll.
    R.I.P. Bart. The best cat there ever was. :sad:

    Just a heads up here, yesterday i was offered a survey for 42 points which took me to a well known site that offers £3 per study (survey) i clicked out immediately outraged that some middleman could offer so little.

    Lo and behold the same survey was in my email this morning, it took 5 minutes and the payment £3 is in my paypal account already!

    I guess they are cottoning on that ppl will do stuff for practically nothing! madness :eek:

    The same thing happened to me, I closed the window when I saw who the survey was from.

    I've not yet been offered it directly, but even if I'm not, there is no way I'm doing it for a fraction of what it is worth on PCR!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I have had 6 DS DQ before getting a Hall & Partners price comparison site DS. I went through it, got to questions about my status, which some were also asked at the beginning and then got dq'd! Thanks SB, 20 mins wasted for nothing. No wonder I and others are getting fed up of you:mad:

    Exactly! I felt like emailing them and asking them what the hell answers they could expect from a bunch of kids, who have multiple persona's, emails,and whatever!

    I guess they can't really care, i know i will never use a survey company if i ever start up a business lmao :D

    I did feel disappointed though cos i thought PCR was a classy outfit.
