Twice I have been invited to be part of their survey panels and twice I have had my account suspended once I provided massive amounts of demographic, family, and personal information. I truly believe the company lures in people with promises of rewards for the sole purpose of acquiring information to be sold, then suspends accounts to avoid having to make good on promises made in the first place. These people are criminals.

They make halfway complete surveys that…
They make halfway complete surveys that glitch out near the end. Feels intentional. PLEASE AVOID (unless you love wasting time.)

Lately they've been disqualifying me…
Lately they've been disqualifying me from surveys for inexplicable reasons. I take surveys with SurveyJunkie and whenever I get redirected to Dynata surveys, 99% of the time I get screened out after answering some of their ridiculous qualifying questions. Today they asked about my relationship with technology and what kind of devices I use. I gave what I thought was a complete, decent answer. Then I was asked about the three features I thought would make any hotel a luxury hotel. I gave an honest answer, submitted it, and suddenly was kicked out of the survey, with SurveyJunkie telling me I don't qualify. For what it's worth, I was asked the hotel/luxury hotel question before and gave a similar answer, after which I was disqualified, so I'm guessing that is the question that kicks me out. I honestly wish I knew the type of answer they were looking for. They didn't even ask me any demographic questions, it was just these two short answer ones. Ridiculous. From now on if I ever get redirected to a Dynata survey I'll run, not walk, away.
UPDATE: And it now seems I must do the same with SSI Surveys, since they appear to be partnered with Dynata. I just tried to answer qualification questions for a survey from SSI Surveys. I was asked two questions: what three things do I do to maintain my health; and what is my favorite meal and what are its ingredients. I answered both thoroughly and honestly. After submitting, it said "powered by Dynata" and I groaned. And then I was told by Survey Junkie yet again, "Sorry, you don't qualify for this survey." I find it strange that I cannot qualify for any Dynata surveys at all. Every single one disqualifies me. I'm done with them, and now SSI Surveys as well. They're awful.
