I know I get lots of surveys that ask me also how many employees are in my company, and its annual budget and my title in the company, when I am retired. I just usually say one employee and other job. I think a lot of people that are doing surveys are either on disability or are retired.

Yeah, here I go complaining again! I just get so aggravated over these survey sites. Anyway, there are a couple of things that made my blood pressure go up a little. First are survey sites that have one of those stupid open ended questions that have nothing to do with the survey. An example is "Describe how you budget..." InnovateMR is notorious for these, and I absolutely hate them. I normally answer something to the effect that the question is not relevant to the survey and I refuse to answer. Normally, I can get by saying this and it moves on to the real survey. Other sites do them to, and it seemed like every survey I hit on today had that. And not one of them let me move on to the rest of the survey. So being petty and all, I decided to just write two words. I think you all can use your imaginations and guess what those words were. I was getting disqualified anyway, so I figured I might as well have some fun and break the monotony. The second thing that has been annoying me is several of the surveys I tried today had those questions as to what I do for a living. Since I'm completely retired, I pick retired. But nooooo, these survey sites today did not have that nor "I don't work" or "unemployed" as a choice. Then they want to know the revenue of the company I'm employed in, even though I did manage to select "other" and type in RETIRED in all caps. So these tone deaf survey sites think that someone who works in a company with half a billion dollars in revenue is gonna take a survey worth $1.34! No. They are delusional at best and booger eating morons at the worst thinking CEO's of large companies are filling these things out. I think it's totally ludicrous. What a bunch of idiots. So I'm going to make a nice cup of coffee and move on to my online Spanish lesson.

I have also had that question many times and my profile says I'm retired and don't work so why am I getting that survey.

I think that the frequency of these vapid open ended and meaningless questions are apparently from same the playbook, "Creating Surveys for Fun and Profit" that these survey panels get from the conventions they attend. This strategy is good for screening out the mindless dummkopfs & minions of stupid bots trying to make a fast penny. A properly trained AI can pass this. When asked for what I do, I try to find something close to part-time consultant or something close to "I'm not going to tell y'all".

Same here. Also retired and get the question about where I work with no option for "retired" as well as the "how many employees" one. Another type survey are those that ask if you use a specific site (like Etsy) and even after explicitly stating that you do not , they ask away every possible question about the site.

Rug

I'm nearing two months of use and the scanned receipts usually are accepted, for some reason the Fetch AI thinks all Lowes are the same store. I go to Lowes hardware and the AI thinks I'm shopping the grocery store. only a few scanned receipts were declined and I was testing what the AI would accept. But it does TERRIBLE on online shopping. The app scans the email activity and logs into Amazon if access is granted. I do Amazon Reviews and Coupons, I usually run about forty to fifty orders a month, most paid by amazon codes from surveys and recycled rebates, but Fetch only picks up half. Fetch Support is lame. So, after I make the ten dollar payout threshold, I'm replacing the app.

I didn't have any problems with getting credited for the few surveys I was allowed to finish, but I found it a truly awful site generally, though not quite as bad as Peanut Labs. I do find it infuriating the way this site (a paid affiliate) keeps shilling for them.

I've dealt with this company for years and everything was great till now. All of a sudden I couldn't log in and was told my account was suspended. Turns out they said my IP was in another country and they wanted me to provide a photo ID and proof that I was a U.S. citizen as well as proof that my IP was within the U.S. This was highly suspicious to me and after some back and forth they refused to reopen my account or pay me the money I'd built up there even though I could provide them with proof that I'd cashed out before. I don't know what their problem was since my IP does indeed show I am in the U.S. and I had no malware or anything on my computer. My advice is to stay away from One Poll and if you're a member, cash out as soon as you can and find somewhere else to take surveys.
