Aaaaarrrggghhhhh! This lot are really getting on my nerves lately, and they used to be so good!

Today, for the second time this week, I have completed a 25 minute survey right to the end, only to be told that they had already received "enough responses"!! I've just sent them an email giving them a dose of what for - that's taking the you-know-what for sure.

I constantly got the same with them Katie, and gave them up as a bad job. Not wasting my time completing surveys only to be told at the end the quota is full. It started to happen quite regularly so I pulled the plug!! I hope you get on better with them than I did, I don't know what has gone wrong with them. It was simply happening a bit too often for me.

I think I'll be pulling the plug on them myself, Mary. I can forgive an occasional blip, but this is beyond acceptable! To give such huge chunks of time (25 minutes in my case) is pretty cheeky - and I've said as much to them. ;-)

Quite right Katie, after all, we all spend valuable time doing the surveys, giving our honest opinions, and then to be told after 20 minutes or so "sorry" we have enough!! Its happening far too often with them. They seem to want the information but are not prepared to reward you for it.

I agree with you, Mary. I don't mind the odd 5 minutes here and there, as that is the nature of the survey game; but it's happening regularly with Opinion Outpost. I'm going to cash out today and bin 'em! Hmmmmph!!! ;-)
