this is the second time this year! i got a message saying i violated their terms an service-but never say what exactly, just as before! also i am locked out of QuickThoughts (after i tried to redeem a $10 gift card for Amazon); both are run by Survey Sampling international. this happened probably simultaneously last night. the last time it took a few days and i was allowed in again, still with no explanation! now i doubt i can continue, and don't expect a valid response, if any. i have had no trouble of this nature with other survey panels-i was always paid when promised, not banned or temporarily locked out. maybe this is a waste of time now and i really should move on to only the honest panels, and say goodbye to my money .
