I've had numerous invites from them but I don't like the idea of being tied down to something.
I wouldn't say you are tied down, as with everything freelance you can always just leave whenever you wantI've had numerous invites from them but I don't like the idea of being tied down to something.
Thanks you for your reply.If the end client is the same then I wouldn't use the same email address

checked my emails and not been invitedHas anyone been invited to Stonecoal? Is it worth bothering with the qualification? Haven't had any good Appen work in a while but I'm not sure if it's one of those projects with only a few days of work
If you're in the UK, I wouldn't bother. I took the test last week and passed, one of the very few lately that I have passed. I got added to the task list and chat - and then advised that I'd been taken off it because it's full for the UK. It looks to be a fairly long-term project though when it restarts so you might want to try.Has anyone been invited to Stonecoal? Is it worth bothering with the qualification?

Is it the same sort of thing as the work last autumn? I gave that a couple of days and decided not to bother doing any more. What they classified as an hours work took more like 3 or 4 and made the pay rate ludicrous. Also the interface and all the stuff with timestamps was way too fiddly.Is anyone doing the transcription work? The reviewers seem to vary so much. Right now there seems to be a reviewer that is gleefully catching people out, even if it is a fraction of a second on a time stamp. Really hard to keep motivated....
I've been investigating and it appears that it isn't, unless the PM does something about it.I've told them I can't work the afternoon for less than a dollar. It was verifying other people's work too, so you need language qualifications. One cent per recording, the majority of which were three minutes long. A whole afternoon wasted. A lesson there, they're still a good firm but check the pay rates!Hope you find out what happened there. 80 cents must surely be a mistake at their end!
This can't be right, even if you include countries with lower minimum wages, I can't see how anyone with language qualifications would be rewarded with such low pay.I've been investigating and it appears that it isn't, unless the PM does something about it.I've told them I can't work the afternoon for less than a dollar.
