Surveys for EVERYthing

When did surveys become a Thing?
I’ve noticed it more and more over the last year.
I call my bank , the water co, my utility provider, supermarket, credit card co, I buy a flight, take the flight, go to Boots, buy a goddamn moisturiser online, stay in a hotel. I could go on.
Every single one sends me a bloody survey to complete.i never do them. What are they really going to do about my feedback? What’s really going to change?

I stayed at Ikos over the summer. The survey must have been half an hour long. A section for everything you could possible think of. Except the pillows which were awful.

And the only people who never send a survey, one I could actually fill out? The local council. Who are useless. Funny that.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who is subjected to this pain day after day.

I wish there was a Do Not Send Me A Survey button.

Agree. The one place I definitely wanted to respond to didn't send one. It's a hearing test centre and they always phone when my annual appointment is due next year so I'll give them both barrels then.

The ones I particularly don't like are the ones that don't offer general comment box, and you don't find this until the end, with no Back facility.

It's the one box where I get to go bonkers on being asked what gender I identify as - I don't identify as a woman, I AM a woman. The other one is the insulting abyss of age, where 65+ is a cliff you drop off, instead of grading as per those younger. It's also piss-poor marketing as we Boomers are the ones with the cash aren't we, so surely they should be looking more closely at the moneybags?
