  • Just had a survey that was going really well, got to a page where it asked if I'd be happy to not disclose any of the information in the survey so I of course ticked yes, would not disclose and it booted me!

    I do sometimes worry whether surveys are proof-read properly by the designers or whether translators don't properly check what they have done.

    I very rarely do them other than to try and pick up a SB for a DQ unless they claim to be under 5 mins long - a week or so ago started one and about three pages in there was no text just boxes to tick for answers and a couple of drop downs that showed a range of numbers, I selected at random expecting a DQ and ended up having 5 or 6 pages like this and then got the reward for a completion
  • I see at least one survey company, as a mark of respect, is not offering any surveys "during the queen's funeral".  It seems the funeral must be taking all day as we are advised to come back tomorrow.

    Well, if you're watching the BBC, it certainly does seem to be taking all day!

    I think they should have had a poll such as:
    Would you like to answer some surveys during the Queen's funeral?
    No
    Yes, I won't be watching anyway
    Yes, I'll be watching but will happily do some surveys while it's on

    On that note, I think it would have been a good 10 or 12 days to have had a lot of surveys!

    Wow!  Just put through three receipts I'd been saving for a day when it would be a struggle to reach the target, totalling 600SB, and redeemed two Amazon cards at 1000SB each.  Many, many thanks for the heads-up!  Yes, I'm quite sure it's a mistake on their part - they wouldn't put out a bonus without shouting about it.
