Project Banksiadale 250 points = butter and margarine choices.
Pity I use olive oil for almost everything (I grow olives)
Can't say any of the above promotes wandering

i did that survey too and i think it is more general opinion than brand opinions

Perhaps I'm the odd one out here, but I've noticed that not a single one of the Red Planet surveys I've completed since the start of the month have posted to my QFF account. Thus far I've earned 695 QFF points during this period on surveys. And from my experience QF is very quick at getting those points posted to one's QFF account.

Any ideas what might be going on? Hopefully those points aren't wandering away!

Possibly. I got screened out of a survey on 2 Sep and the 15 points posted 5 Sep.

Cheers skip

Yep. Usually the next or at least within 48 hrs.

I have a bunch of surveys that haven’t posted promptly as well. They usually post eventually and I don’t need points urgently (I already have enough for 3 trips if I can somehow find classic reward seats) so I am in no rush.

Im not at all diligent when it comes to doing these surveys, but pop in from time to time.

The design of some surveys is woeful.

Just had one re sport on streaming services, asked which of a long list of sports you like/watch - there was no option to say none of the above. It hadnt even occurred to them that some people do not enjoy watching sport.

I also quite often get ones about car insurance, where even if you say your dont own a car they proceed to bang on with related questions.

If they want to get useful data they really need to have proper qualifying questions up front.

More often than not, there is the “None of the above” and you’re quickly shown the door. 15 pts - thanks for coming but yes, I’ve had a couple that didn‘t and you’re suddenly in Hotel California - “you can checkout anytime but you can never leave”…

Looks like I had some laggard points post yesterday from surveys on or around 5 & 8 Sep.

4 surveys today screened out of 3. One completed for 250 points

Thanks for the heads up. I have two waiting on my dashboard but no emails!

Same. In no rush to spend points and have enough for multiple trips so I didn’t bother to chase it up.

Ditto but they do provide a reasonable chunk of my annual PC requalify.

Completed Project EstuaryPerch2 for 150 points - annual survey for science research opinions

Anyone familiar with how the backend of the survey platforms work know why there's sometimes a disconnect between the estimated time presented by the survey panel and the estimated time presented by the actual survey maker? I sometimes see an estimated time of 10 mins, then I click in and the actual survey says estimated time is 20 mins.

Someone‘s fibbing. Plus for some surveys there are some variables depending on how you answer some questions throughout that can give you more or less options to answer…

Thing is, when I initially see 10 mins, then when I go in and see 20 mins, I'll just close that survey if I don't get disqualified after the initial questions.

Had an interesting survey yesterday where one could get $5 for watching a series of adverts with webcam on. I haven't received the $5 yet although the points appear on the RedPlanet dashboard (I think).

Anyone else try that survey?

This is why I don't do these surveys.
VFF peanut labs are the same.
Too long and too onerous.
