I completed a DS, can't even remember what it was on despite finishing 5 minutes ago, but the URL had Effectiveresearchsurveys in it and it didn't credit at the end...! Despite me reaching 100% it just wouldn't refer me back to SB for my 70SB, yet another one they owe me...!This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

It's so hard to qualify for a survey now i really wouldn't blame people for telling a little porky pie.
I just got DQ from a PL about sky go because i answered truthfully i have sky tv, so how the hell do you watch sky go if you don't subscribe to sky?
I don't know what these surveys are looking for these days! :cool:0 -

I want to see how it pans out, if some of you have done 2 or 3 today will you get one tomorrow?
I'm a bit suspicious about why swagbucks have suddenly said we can do unlimited?
Besides i can't be bothered now, gonna have a glass of wine :beer:katykicker wrote: »Why not? Others will beAlso, you don't know when you'll get DS that credit again LOL
This is a post from Swagbucks UK on Facebook:-
"there are a certain number of advertisers wanting a certain number of responses. beforehand people were not allowed to do another survey even if they qualified, meaning that users were missing out as no-one was doing them. this way means all the surveys should be done by our users. it's the fairest way, you can do what you qualify for.."
He says that if you don't get any daily surveys one day, then it's because you aren't eligible for any that day, and it's the luck of the draw. I think, reading between the lines, what he is trying to say is that we are pre-screened before being offered any surveys. If that's the case then why have demographic questions in the surveys themselves? If he's talking about the questions for the tick boxes, then that still doesn't hold water because often even if there are lots of tick boxes, you still can't get a survey.
The only thing I can think is that the survey companies know which surveys they are going to have available. They ask us to complete the tick boxes and the surveys are matched to the tick boxes. They then release the surveys but only a certain number each day (often I will get a survey one or two days after others have mentioned doing them). You then complete the demographic questions in the survey to match the demographics that the companies are looking for. So you go through two screening processes in effect.
I think that Swagbucks have been forced to let us do more than one because Toluna aren't getting sufficient responses or they're not getting the number of responses they need quickly enough.

I think you have worked out the reason. Survey company A don't care if you have already answered a survey for company B that day, they just need to fulfill their requirements ASAP.0 -

I'm going to make the suggestion on Facebook and see what response I get from Swagbucks. I think it's about time we get some straight answers to questions (if possible)Swagbucks joined 5th July 2012 - Earned 2012: Amazon - £300 - 2013: Amazon - £610
