Ciao survey crowd now taking the complete p***?

One Poll pay between 10p and 1 pound per survey. That's also rubbish!
I think I'll ignore the research companies if my data isn't worth more.
I mean people are paying more for my address / email address.0 -

The difference with onepoll is the surveys are short, you can see how many questions there are before you start and you never get screened out. And there are surveys to complete just about every work day, most often more than one.
You can do a onepoll survey in about 10 seconds.0 -
Ciao has really gone downhill over the last year or so. Over time, I've earnt good money from them but I just don't bother any more0

Ciao Surveys are getting my back up too, since I signed up Ive done soooo many surveys, at least once a day. And Ive yet to get anything in my balance account!! They usually end up saying 'sorry you dont qualify..' blah blah, but some Im sure Ive completed?! But still £0.00 balance. Think I might cancel my account with them too!!\\ Debt Free April 2008 //\\ Single Mummy to 1 boy - 4 years & 5 months old //\\ Last weeks spend: £139.39 - 2 NSDs //0

I'm definitely going to cancel my account, and make a complaint to head office, and as many of their clients as I can remember too. I got nine minutes into a ten minute survey yesterday (I think the incentive was about £2.50, so well worth having a go, for once), and was bumped out with "sorry, you don't qualify". I'm also a little sick and tired of being bumped out at "Are you The Edible Dormouse?" - "Yes" - "Sorry, you don't qualify".
I've been keeping a tally, and out of 30 surveys, I haven't completed a single one. And I'm in a highly in demand demographic, according to a market researcher friend of mine.
Ciao used to have such a good reputation. How the mighty are fallen...£5 a day in December £179.59/£155£100 on STP by 31 January 09 £2.03/£1000 -
Ive just had an invitation from Ciao for another survey - this one £1 for 5 minutes (allegedly!). Anyway, surprise,surprise I didnt qualify! Does anyone else seem to be getting the same questions from them regarding work occupations - questions like are you a supervisor/in charge of IT department,make departmental decisions - if I earned that much I would NOT be doing the stupid things especially for such crap payment:mad:0

I used to do not too badly with Ciao until about six months ago. Exactly same reasons as you've all mentioned. I stopped my participation.
I'm going to stop Pure Profile and Panelbase if I ever get to the payout amount!Everybody dies, but not everyone truly lives0
