Why does every organization survey the users? Complained Maher

And I had to smile. A few weeks ago I stopped at the ATM machine to draw some cash. A few days later I got an email asking me for my "experience." I needed money and completed the transaction was my reply. Not enough. Several questions on a scale of 1 to 10..

because I think their performance is judged on this. I used to not give 10. 8 or 9 are adequate. But then a service man once told me that it has to be 10.

and they want my phone number and email address. Generally I decline. I get enough spam as it is.

If I'm bailed up at the shops to do 'a quick survey', I ask if I'll be paid for my time.

One shop, where I bought an electrical appliance said my warranty would be void without my personal details. I quickly reminded them of Australian consumer laws and they gave up.

even clinics that I have recently visited. Thankfully, I leave this emails for "later" and by the time I am ready the survey is "closed."
