Is Loop & Merge piping broken?

Hi all,n I'm trying to loop & merge a ranking question. First I ask which companies from a list the respondent has used. I then ask them to rank these companies on a series of metrics. For this I'm trying to use loop & merge, repeating the questions for each company chosen. However, I can't pipe the option into the question text. I instead get "How do you rate Company A, Company B, Company F for speed of service?" etc. I want the question to show "How do you rate Company A for speed of service?", followed by Company B, Company F etc on subsequent loops. I'm sure this is how it used to work? Or am I going crazy and this was never possible?

My guess is you're pulling in the wrong piped fields, or failed to indicate that the block is a Loop and merge block. Seems to be working fine for me at least? Turn on the loop and merge, based on the question with the companies... ! Then Pipe in the feild for the company... ! If that's not doing the trick, maybe share some screenshots?

Hi Kate, Thanks for your time - you're right, I was pulling the wrong field! Your screenshot helped a lot :))
