I find on the app I have to scroll down to the bottom of the page sometimes to make the buttons become "active". Also, some have a "delay" built in, before they become active, presumably to keep one from going too fast through the surveys. Or all of the above is part of my active imagination...

I completed about three weeks ago now one of those invitation surveys to complete a daily diary on gambling site adverts.
Q is how long after completing & submitting your weekly diary entries does the reward points take to be credited? |

Let's hope so. I suspect it requires a couple days to reset as I just tried and the "opportunity expired" still there. Will try again after 2 days lapse.

Could you have been using a VPN or maybe your ISP might have made it look like you were in a different country? Ignoring the pre-screening that takes place on e-rewards' own site, when they send you off for a proper paid survey I think they make a number of checks such as that your IP address matches the country whose panel you signed up to. I live in the UK but, inexplicably, my devices often report me as being in The Netherlands!
I sent a request under Survey Technical Issue from husband's account. Will report back what they say if and when they reply on the ticket next week. |

Can't get passed one survey that requires personal information
I have accumulated a bunch of e-rewards invites that I finally got around to do it. Funny thing is every single survey I clicked always brought me back to the one that requires me to input my full name and full address, after answering the pre-qualified questions.
After ten+ more tries, I gave up. Is it normal? |
Well, yes. It happens sometimes a survey is stuck due to some technical problem and you cannot complete any other unless it expires.
If the survey is not stuck you can at least disqualify yourself or enter some false information if you do not want to supply real one. |

I've been doing e-rewards for over a decade, and in the last 1-2 years I've had my account frozen more times than in all the prior years, even though I have done absolutely nothing different or in violation of the T&C, and always provide them with honest answers. I think they may have stepped up their screening process to "catch" people who they believe are answering too quickly, and/or perhaps trying to answer too many surveys in a single day. (Total conjecture on my part.)
Typically what happens is that even though I can access my account, I have no surveys in the dashboard, and I stop receiving offers via email. In addition, when I try to redeem for an award, I get the dreaded "Error message QSB0303-17." In general, my experience after writing them has been that after waiting 7-10 days I receive an email with some boilerplate advice to clear the cache, try a different browser, etc etc. I write them back, politely tell them none of those things work, and there is something happening on their end. The next response usually comes several days later telling me that the problem has been resolved. Seems to me that there are some shady people involved, and if there aren’t then shame on them for just being that incompetent. I’ve tired of them and don’t have the interest or time to try and fight with them to help them out. I do something where I can see the value of good useful feedback and how hard it can be to collect which is why I was willing to give some time to help (the rewards were never actually worth my time), but if they can’t keep their act together them they’ve lost my efforts to give them some time and feedback. |
no gold crown for e-rewards :)

Oh, I get that. I’m just thinking that if it was my business I would run it differently, but that’s more of my philosophies than being a cutthroat profiteer that only focuses on the short-term. I want to make that success, but I also think about more long term development/maturing the business foundation and have a (sometimes misguided) belief in people being supportive and not exploitive. Those that have met me at prior Do events would likely concur.
I’m thinking more about the marketers that are writing the (sometimes very poorly designed) surveys, especially when they’re working on product design and fit. And maybe I’m being too altruistic there, but I just know how hard it can be for me to get activity and feedback on my projects, so I commiserate with these other people (that may not exist and may not appreciate my efforts). I still work on giving feedback directly to companies that ask for it when I interact with them, so I expect they are at least marginally more interested in that. Anyway, just wanted to add my recent experiences to this thread, to give feedback for any others that may be annoyed with them. |
Got a boiler plate reply on the "opportunity expired" issue. No use.
However I discovered using iPad and Safari, can go thru Invite link or surveys on eReward site upon log in - no hiccup despite many only yield $0.25 after over 5 min into eligibility screening, rather annoying. Since all devices use the same home network therefore same IP address, I have to conclude this is not related to IP address. It only happens on Desktop regardless Firefox or Chrome, though with sporadically success between the frequent "opportunity expired" messages. I replied to their boiler plate message pointing out that fact. Meanwhile will use iPad instead. |

A DP whenever I had a hotel stay and did them no problems at all, just like old times. Get home and for a day or 2 I could do them w/o any problems then bingo back to the "opportunity expired" |
Anyone here accepted an e-rewards enrollment offer from Magazine Gold??
Family member received an e-rewards enrollment offer from Magazine Gold. Both the offer and the signup page specify "You can redeem your currency for rewards, such as: iTunes, Amazon, American Airlines miles, and more!" There are also logos of those 3 companies on the offer email. This person flies United almost exclusively, and AA miles are of no value. Has anyone here enrolled in e-rewards via Magazine Gold, and if so, can you share if United is on the rewards list? Thanks very much.

It also looks like you might be able to sign up without an invitation now via the phone app. I’d look into that.
