By: KatieN Date: 10 Feb 2012 7:15 PM For the first time in my survey-taking life I've failed quality control! I took a Populus survey via Vivatic, just now, and right at the very end I received a very stern message from Populus telling me that I would not be rewarded because I had failed quality control. Naturally, I was mortified! |

Martin Wright By: Martin WrightDate: 10 Feb 2012 7:56 PM Yes, I did with NewVista - my son (who sits in the same room as me on the XBox) was shouting and I put in the wrong number, just like you, right at the end and I have to say I did have STERN WORDS with him for distracting me - he is 13!!! I think you get 3 strikes in a year so don't worry too much! | |
KatieN About me: I love taking part in active, lively discussions. Why I like surveys: It's great to be able to give your opinion, and be active in lots of different communities. By: KatieNDate: 10 Feb 2012 7:58 PM I'm glad I'm not along, Fikinz...It was like being back at school again, lol. Keep calm and carry on, as they say :-)) | |
Jilly101 About me: Married with 3 kids, live in North West and enjoy reading, cooking and watching various sports on TV Why I like surveys: Mostly for the rewards but I like getting to review and test products and ideas before they hit the shops and I enjoy mini-polls where you get to see how others have voted. By: Jilly101Date: 11 Feb 2012 2:33 AM I've done it once with NewVista and once with Populus but only through Vivatic, does anyone know whether these count against the three strikes if you are not logged into the actual site, I would have thought not but you never know.... | |

By: KatieNDate: 11 Feb 2012 8:54 AM I was wondering the same thing Jilly.....It was the first time it happened to me. | |
Fikinz By: FikinzDate: 11 Feb 2012 10:29 AM Well, I presume as I didn't get an e-mail from them, it wouldn't count, btw mine was through Vivatic as well! | |

serena About me: I am a housewife currently, and my husband and 2 adult sons work full time, so i look after the house and finances. Why I like surveys: I enjoy giving my opinion and earning a little extra to help out with the shopping now and again and it keeps me occupied. By: serenaDate: 11 Feb 2012 3:31 PM Same thing happened to me with Newvista i was also mortified! Pure mistake, and i knew i had done it as soon as(obviously) i hit the continue button!!arrggg!!! I blamed my husband who came in from work, who was just trying to have a conversation with me, bless him x | |
LizzieAnn About me: I love surveys! You can't tell from reading any of my posts, though, can you?! I am a full time worker with two children and a full time house husband, are you jealous? Why I like surveys: They are fun, interesting and lucrative, not to mention the fact that they can lead to amazing things! By: LizzieAnnDate: 11 Feb 2012 6:38 PM It has happened to me only once with Newvista ever.....and that was a typo, too, katie...feel no shame, girl, it is easy to do....very frustrating too if you are nearing redemption as I was....on 48 and chucked out of a 2 points survey!! | |

By: KatieNDate: 11 Feb 2012 7:37 PM Well, I don't feel too bad now I know it's happened to you too, Lizzie! ;-) If it can happen to our Lizzie, it can happen to anyone... :-) :-) It did irk me to be told off so sternly though....Felt like I was back in the Mother Superior's office being told off for my school skirt being to short!!! | |

By: LizzieAnnDate: 12 Feb 2012 1:36 PM I agree...you do feel guilty, don't you?! I remember I once nearly lost my job as a bar maid for wearing my skirt too short too! You would think that would be an asset but nope....must have been my legs!! | |

By: KatieNDate: 13 Feb 2012 9:09 AM LOL! They probably felt threatened by how lovely your legs are, and didn't want the competition! ;-) | |
