So, I have been doing alot of surveys on one particular site because it is pretty easy on there to qualify for an Amazon card and I have gotten a few already, I am close to another one..so anyway I start taking a survey on the kindle when I woke up this morning, it was a real pain in the neck as the print was small, anyway 20 minutes later, they say congratulations you can now take our survey!!!! They have to be kidding me!! A screener should not be 30 questions...Some companies are so thoughtless! Have you ever taken a survey like that??

@snowy22315 I agree that a screener shouldn't be 30 questions long. This is ridiculous and frustrating. The other frustrating thing is when you have almost completed a long survey, it suddenly hangs and freezes or it just auto terminate.

Surveys attimes can be a real waste of time.
Can you share the site you are talking about

What's really bad is when you are almost at the end of a survey and something happens...and it is lost. I have had that once in awhile, but generally, except for a few sites, I don't take surveys it just isn't worth it!

@snowy22315 I seem to do a few every week when I am watching TV. Like I said, I have been doing them for more than 30 years. There was no getting paid at all for the ones that came in the mail. It was just to feel like you were having your say.

I used to take surveys all the time, but when they started asking me to put human characteristics on cereal, cars, and the like I quit them all. So stupid.

I hate that type of question too. I have been doing surveys since they mailed me big booklets that I had to fill out and mail back. I used to write on them, that I will not answer questions about whether my food is compassionate or other silly attributes. Now I have to answer them to get to the next page, so I just go down the row and pick the same attribute for each product on the list. Then if there is a comment place at the end I explain why I did that.

Yes, I have and it is super annoying. You can waste a lot of time sometimes on these surveys.
