Can you really make money doing surveys?

I have done many surveys and belong to about 5 survey sites. I have even done surveys through a few PTC sites. I just don't seem to make too much money. Most of the surveys say I am not qualified to complete the survey. This is usually after I have spent 5-10 mins. filling in and answering all the questions. I was wondering if these were scam survey sites since they get a lot of information from me before the decide I am not qualified. Does this happen to you and if it does how often? Is it worth your time taking the surveys?

It true that you can make money via surveys. There are sites like quickrewards and so on. They help you to make some bucks.

I like survey spot too,they are the only ones that don't cut me off in the middle of a survey. I like getting the checks in the mail, it is like a little onus to actually see the money that way.

It just seems that I can not make payout at these sites because they say I don't qualify. I get like 5 minutes into the survey and I answer all the questions and they get the info from me and tell me no thanks and then I don't get paid. Sounds like a scam.

I am beginning to think that way also. I think most of them get the information they are truly looking for in the first few minutes of questions and then so they don't have to pay you, they tell you that you longer qualify.

No not yet, I do have some money or points in my accounts but not enough for pay out and I don't know how many contests or drawings I have been entered into and never won anything. I have put in more than my 2cents worth in and received nothing for my time.
