@Alli R. Surveys are a tricky space – fraud is rife because real money's on the line, so everyone from the big suppliers down has to be careful to protect the system. That's why we reward full successful completions with spins, guesses and leader board spots – it balances things out when stuff goes wrong.
Some suppliers just perform better for certain people (better matches on quotas/demographics), and we'll keep adding more options so you can pick/refine the ones that work best for you.
Appreciate you raising it – sorry it's frustrating.

I've completed numerous surveys and so many of them ended up with an "error" at the end or saying I didn't qualify. I reported it to Admin multiple times with no update.

@Alli R. agree, many surveys ask at the beginning (should be rule) and they still have our information reagrdless if we are in the quota.

@Admin quota questions should be asked at the beginning. Some surveys do this. As long as the platform allows it done being at the beginning or end, the more frustration will grow from the community and less surveys will be completed. I have rasied this many times in chat over the years, so it is not the first time it has been raised.

@M M.
I've seen your reports before, sorry if it feels like crickets on my end.
These issues (late DQs, random errors at the finish line) almost always come from the supplier side – their routing, quota logic, or tech glitches. We pass every legit report straight to them for review, but honestly, their turnaround can drag on for weeks or even months depending on volume and what they're investigating. No quick fix from our side since we don't control their backend.
That said, I'll flag your latest one again today with as much detail as you've given. In the meantime, we're looking at ways to soften the blow, like small consolations for deep-progress DQs, without opening the door to abuse again.
Appreciate you hanging in there and letting me know – keeps us pushing the suppliers harder.

@Belinda Jones The reason a lot of surveys still put quota/demographic questions late (even though some do them upfront) is mainly because thousands of people jump on the same survey at once not just from us. The supplier starts routing everyone in, then as responses roll in super fast, quotas fill mid-survey. They can't always predict or stop it perfectly in real-time, so the system lets people keep going until it checks against the latest quota status – often only at the end when you submit. It's not ideal, but it's how many of these high-volume routers handle the flood to avoid blocking people too early and losing potential good fits.
That said, you're right – it builds frustration and kills completion rates over time. We're always pushing suppliers for better upfront screening where possible and adding more options that do handle it earlier. In the meantime, I'll keep an eye on patterns like this and flag for any improvements we can make on our end (like those consolations we talked about).
Appreciate you sticking with the feedback – it does help.

@Admin Same as the others.I feel victimised by the American survey providers and I don't blame admin.Waste of time something about the American people running the survey As a 71 year old with a master's degree I did them to improve the quality of life but why waste a day to be told error occurred when they are scamming information about products and not fulfilling the rewards.🤬

I agree 100%. I have the same issue with surveys (probably duplicates) on Swagbucks. It's beyond frustrating and very dishonest. I don't object to being screened out if it happens early and I get something for my time eg a free spin.

Can be such waste of time

Yep, just wasted 25 mins, completed what seemed like a full survey only to be told that I don't qualify.

If anything this would only encourage people to not answer properly and rush through. I took my time and provided accurate answers and I get 0 reward.

Hi David B. The guessing game is drawn at the same time each day i.e. 11am Syd time

Fantastic! Great job!
