I tried something similar a couple of years back can't remember its name but they were based in Coventry it was 30p per question but sometimes you could sit for hours and get nothing,and when a question came in it was fastest finger first and some people had autorefreshers installed so they'd get questions first. Difficult to earn much, don't know if aqa is any better perhaps

I saw the FB post about 6336 today, does this mean they are recruiting again? Or do I submit my cv and await them recruiting in the future? TIA

Would love to know the name if you remember at some point! I love working for AQA so anything else like it would be awesome!

Is the AQA researchers group still active on Yahoo? I found it useful to bounce things off other researchers sometimes. I tried to log in recently but couldn't. I'm not sure if I got the log in credentials wrong or it's been disbanded.

[member=607]Steve1912[/member] they have recently created a private facebook group for AQA researchers which might help with that :)

I recently applied to AQA as a researcher and they have replied to me saying I should contact their sister company BONGO to perhaps work for them. I have sent an email off so will see what comes back. Anyone on here work for BONGO rather than AQA?

Thanks,

Cat

I heard back from BONGO today and they were impressed with my application and wanted me to confirm that I would like to start training but they are asking preferably for someone who can give 20 hours per week and I was looking for more like 10. I have replied as such, sayng I could do 20+ during school holidays, but now not expecting them to take me on.

Question for anyone signed up to work for 63336 - Is it worth doing? I'm just thinking with all the Cortana and Siri apps on people's phones now days it seems very last decade to be texting a number and paying a human to find something out for you. Is there still much work coming out of this?

Aqa are the same company as Bongo

Bongo is constantly busy as there is always a new crop of teenagers who watch geordie shore and see their adverts and then text in To find out who fancies them etc

I may not be as busy in the FACT finding side of things but the "who have I got a crush on / who will I marry" side of things is always busy

Exactly what [member=1]Jon[/member] said, it is more for teenagers who want to know their future or who has a crush on them etc. AQA/Bongo are quite good at advertising in line with the latest teen trends in order to attract more customers

I ended up dropping Bongo/AQA because yes, it was busy but not at the right times for me. It was getting busy around 4pm when I'm still on the school run and then again after 8pm which is when I wanted to spend time with my husband. This was a while ago now so I'm not sure if it's still the same.

They are really popular with teens who like to know who they're going to marry, what their future holds and in all honesty, it gets tedious - I used to love the facts that came through once in a blue moon but telling [insert name] that they're going to marry [insert name], on a beach in 10 years every few messages gets boring ;)

I worked with them for a while and as Chammy said, it was very tedious. It was easy money but they pretty much halved the rate they pay for each question, so the hourly rate was poor.

Don't know if anyone is still working for 63336 these days but I see they are charging £3 per text message now!

Yikes!
