I'm surveys a go-go again. And I was just about to zap my old account in favor of a new inferior one from United this morning, but then figured I'd give it to the end of the month see if it resolved.

I have had several surveys recently where I have spent a good five minutes answering the questions and even going as far as to rate how happy I was with a particular company and explaining my answer to then be told I didn't qualify or they had the required number of respondents in my group.
I don't mind being disqualified after answering a couple demographic questions, but this is getting absurd.

I've had a survey twice today asking if you would participate in a 15 min telephone interview, if you select no you get disqualified. When you press accept and fill out your contact details you get no reward at the end even though it stated the reward was 400 points. Luckily I never enter my correct details in such forms! 😉
Just had a survey and got to about 80% completed and disqualified me? Never had a survey get that far in and get disqualified...

Does anyone else do the IHG/SSI surveys and intentionally disqualify themselves? Far more rewarding return on time than actually trying to complete the survey. Being 99 years old and working in market research seems to get you out of most surveys within the first few questions.

Also, e-Rewards does seem to sometimes do sweeps where they 'catch' surveys you completed but it didn't redirect properly. Occasionally I'll get a 'new survey' e-mail on the weekend where I click on the link and it goes directly to a rate the survey page and credits $2.50-$5.00 shortly after that.

Contact E-Rewards and ask them for the points. They'll check and give them to you. Might take a few days but you will get them.

No chance I'm afraid as too much to lose. After lots of research i read never to contact them if you have more than one account as usually leads to them closing you down if you bring attention to yourself.
