Thank you for spending the 45 minutes on what you thought was a survey

Unfortunately you didn't qualify. The good news is we gathered a whole bunch of information in those 45 minutes and we don't have to compensate you for it. I mean, yeah, the survey was worth 12 cents, but money is money. We are sorry you got your hopes up through that 45 minute ordeal that you thought was real and you would gain in it. Well at least there was some gain, our gain. You should feel good about yourself for helping us out. That's definitely a plus for you. It's not you, it's us. We could make the survey qualification questions shorter and save you time. But where's the fun in that? I mean for us, not you.

I have been through this couple of times and it's the most annoying thing ever. People should complain more as I find this is not wrong. Getting our hopes high and getting involved only to be kicked out. I have observed some do pay for our effort. I guess these ae the genuine ones.

I work on a survey site, that reject mostly within few seconds. Sad to hear this from you on wasting 45 minutes.

It’s weird. Most survey sites would reject me within minutes. This one actually had me answer questions about the product first.

What you wrote is exavtly what I think surveys must be thinking when I fall for them. They even start by saying that it will take you no more than 10 minutes and then they say you don´t qualify after over half an housr. What is it that we insist?

I have been through this hundreds of times; and the older I got, the more it happened. I finally gave up and just take surveys on a few sites that I know will accept me. You should try Prolific.

That kind of thing irks me to no end. I hardly ever do surveys because even though they don't pay all that bad, they're just a real pain in the butt.

I don’t do survey as I don’t like to answer questions to the people I don’t know about.
