Been invited to qualify. Looks like a lengthy qualification process so I wanted to see what it was like before committing to the unpaid qualification.

Reading up it seems to be search relevance based which I don't think is for me - I really want to get back on another Ads Rating job!
Yeah the ads rating was an easy money job! I can’t even get on the dashboard anymore. They claim they’ll email me when things come up but everyone else seems to still have access to the bit where the projects appear. So frustrated!!

Same here @Lizziew24, I have no access to the dashboard either. So frustrating, I’ve emailed them several times about it but their not doing anything about it.

I have been applying for these projects over and over again since August last year and I can never seem to go past the "basic qualifications being reviewed" stage... so annoying! The day I am accepted on one of them I'll believe it is a prank! haha

Are Appen still making payments using Payoneer? I think the last thing I did for Appen was the $5 survey and then there was a $3 withdrawal fee for Payoneer which made it not worth the time it took.

I started it but I really didn't like it. It's one thing to read a phrase but much harder to come up with a phrase and then transcribe it. I don't know if I'm slow or if they have massively underestimated how long it would take but it just isn't worth it in my opinion.

Saying OK GOOGLE 200 odds times years ago was enough to drive me mad!

Well, I did an hour on it before quitting because it was really annoying and it was taking too long. I won't get paid for that hour but I just did not want to continue with it. i don't know how they are doing recruiting people for it but I seem to get an email about it every day so they might be struggling and need to up their payment.

Exactly the same here. The payment is borderline acceptable for three hours' work but I can't see how you can read the instruction, come up with a phrase, record it and transcribe it within the time they are allowing for each one.

So you've bailed out as well then on this one?

If anyone is thinking of doing this one don't bother, I completed the whole thing over 3 days, it took 8/9 hours in total ( I wasn't going slow). I sent them a complaint as they've massively underestimated the time it'll take to complete, haven't heard anything back yet.

It's a nice easy one between 1 & 5 hrs per week. Social media ad rating.

This Did make me laugh since most of us on here helped Appen with the OK GOOGLE work a few years back and now it seems the public are HORRIFIED that we heard the recordings of their voice
