I spent 40 minutes on one and when i went to submit it, I got the dreaded "thanks for giving us all this info about yourself, but we aren't going to pay you squat for your time" message. This happens as much now as it did 15 years ago.

Just finished a ResearchNow survey host on Qualtrics and fielded by Tellwut that asked PII (Personally Identifiable Information). The 50 point, 5 minute survey asked full name, email, a serious statement that all questions must be answered with complete truth, a lot of standard demographics questions, interspersed with several instances of solo kittens frolicking, outside on manicured lawns in the shade and from what I could tell, contained just one question "Do you know anyone applying for a job with the Transit Security Administration (TSA)?" Did anyone else bump into anything similar? I sent an email to Tellwut support, I also informed the survey company I was reporting this conduct in a debriefing comments section at the conclusion of the survey, and suggested that the survey providers that pushed this through should be banned from Tellwut. Tellwut knows I post here.

YIKES, that is totally insane. I have never had anything like that. And I back out of all surveys that ask for personal information..

It depends on the survey panel. I have 4-5 I check regularly, and I seldom run out of surveys. Sundays are the worst days overall, not much to pick from on that day.

Yes I got a cryptic and disturbing response, "Thank you for contacting us. This one is allowed to ask for that information as they are matching it to voter database, it should say before you click that personal information was required." I did not recall any explanation that the survey respondents were being matched to voter registration. Maybe that notification was in invisible text that was the same color as the background, white on white. This is Tellwut survey 4162550
