excessive number of pending surveys

Quite a few of the survey sites I have gone to are listed as "pending" right now. Is it normal to wait for
more than two days to get approval of a survey?

I have also noticed that I must be really lame since all but one of the survey sites I chose always have
zero surveys for me.

Pending status means likely the survey is not approved.
It gets approved only after SUCCESSFUL completion and simple participation is not sufficient.

That's all well and good but I think I have done at least 5 surveys for Livesample, had them complete (usually with that's all the questions we have for you but don't worry you are entered in our sweepstakes message) and not received credit for them.

Since livesample is the one and ONLY site that has ever completed a single survey for me I think that my chances of ever getting paid from this site are zero.

Hello,


Do you receive the "Congratulations" page at the end?
Sorry for any inconvenience.

Have a nice day!

I just took one at live sample and got to the page where it says:

"Thank you for taking our survey!
Well, you may have noticed that survey was a little shorter than usual, and in some cases no questions were asked. But no worries! You have still been entered into the $10,000 sweepstakes. The choice is yours, if you want us to try to look for another survey just click the button below.

We use technology to make the process super simple, so we do not waste your time and get you on your way.
So, would you like to try again with another survey? Please ☺
You can earn up to 5 sweepstakes entries per day."

Is this the page you are talking about?

I think I see the problem. Livesample seems to be broken. I tried five times to take a survey and it stopped in the middle every time.

All the other sample sites simply tell me that they have no surveys.

I think that all of these survey sites are now just a waste of time. They ask questions for five minutes, switch you to a different survey for five minutes, and keep doing this until you give up.

Man i guess they just need to be approved

Yes, unfortunately this page means you failed the survey ...
Survey companies do use tricky questions sometimes - you shouldn't feel down if you failed a survey.

Regardless of all of that, we want to keep you happy with our site, so we credited your account with a bonus of 500 coins.
