I can identify most of the nonsense ones, so I choose fewer companies than I actually recognize because I know they are going to ask me endless idiotic questions about them. The ones that are even worse are the ones which I say I have not done business with them and they go on to ask how much money I spent on my last shopping trip there.

I do the same. If I chose everything I recognized, it would take me forever to do some of these surveys. So I just choose the ones I really like and then it's not so bad.

I've had many surveys like that where I have to lie to get to the next question. Sometimes when the next question is 'Why did you choose that answer?", I tell them! ........."I chose that answer because you didn't have one that I could agree with, and I just wanted to get on to the next question."

I get that question from the survey that asks you if you've shopped at stores like "Caldor", "Chess King", "Thom McAn", etc, in the past 6 months. Those stores haven't existed since the 80's!

I say something like "because the option to pick my real answer wasn't there" and then tell them my real answer.

I just submitted a ticket for a completed survey that was not credited, and it was marked solved, closed, and not credited about ten minutes later. Got a screenshot of it, and will send that to BBB, too. Just sent in another ticket, I bet they close that one, too.

Watch out. Just spent 17 minutes on an internet services survey, it told me Success! You've just completed a survey, but I didn't get the points.

It's not any better, but it's not any worse either.

Yea, I noticed that yesterday.
