Surveys [OT] Earn money with the fantastic folks at Prolific Academic

[AlexHove]

Thank you for the tip @AlexHove - what is the browser plugin that you use?

It's called VisualPing and I use it on Chrome. Also check Prolific now, there are 5 or 6 studies just popped up which is unusual for a Sunday evening.

edit: look back through this thread, there's more explanation by me of how Visualping can be set up for free.

Had a bunch of studies today after a dry spell.

Also finished a multi stage one that has been boring the bejeezus out of me for several weeks now.

Anyone else been doing that? The happy/sad one...

Oh God lol. The happy/sad PRESS QXOM OR SPACE CONSTANTLY LIKE A NUTTER GO GO GO!!! one?

Yeah, I did that too. Got a total of 74p in those "bonus rounds" lol. Still £10.74 isn't bad for just over an hour and a quarter in total. If that was QMEE or any of the other rippoff "aggregators", would have been lucky to get £2 .

Just checked and I received my £10 and £1.42 bonus

I ended up virtually always going for the easy "Hit the space bar" option - was getting worried that I was going to break my keyboard doing the other one

Yeah, once you can monitor when they show, you can easily get £15-20 a DAY on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays, Late evening (after 8pm) on Saturdays is a good time to pick up a good few quid too. Sometimes there are a load on Sunday too, but very rare. I'm currently getting about £50-75 a week now for about 4-8 hours in total while I'm either at work or watching TV.

Same here. I tried the full one at first but just felt like I was back in 1984 playing Daley Thompson's Decathlon.

 

[AlexHove]

Oooh, quick theres a Deal or No deal like study going on right now.

edit: Just nailed £7!

 

[AlexHove]

Nice easy £6 one just popped up too: ABCCL Category Learning Study. If you are eligible, go for it. 34 places.

edit: all gone now. Hope a few moneyshedders got in on it too!

It's not hard to get good studies for myself, but I guess it also has a lot to do with where you live and the answers you honestly give.

I don't recommend this, but I get a lot of studies because I have 3rd degree burns, and management experience for charities, so one of my tips would be pour a hot kettle on yourself and also look into management. Also give more to charity.

Please don't do the first two, management is rubbish

Give to charity though, whatever your charity is. Charity that starts at home isn't wrong either, even being mindful is charity, even if it is just for yourself.

Thanks for the advice Alex, those are some interesting demographics you have! I don't seem to get offered high paid studies yet, though I did manage to grab a £6 one last night, just missed out on the £6 one from today though ah well, we win some we lose some. (Think i'll give management a miss, and avoid the hot kettles though haha.)

Perfect - now have the plugin, nothing has come through yet for Prolific but I'm monitoring a couple of other sites and have managed to pick up things through those. Thank you

Yeah, don't get burned. It's not fun. Neither is management . Ask Jon

Glad you are actually getting some cash out of it now though!

Awesome that it's getting you hits on other sites. Could I ask what other sites you are using it on?

Yeah, same with me before, Crowdology has started doing that too... It pretty much means their server is overloaded and they can't handle the traffic.

Also just noticed, there are two Rachel K's I'm replying to. Apologies if I thought you were both the same person.

No probs, I'm new. Didn't realise there was another Rachel K (hi Rachel!). Will have to edit my profile a bit to make it easier to tell who is who.

HELP! Guys - I've just done my first ever study with PA and at the end they want me to enter my ID in order to be paid. Is this the ref number I copied at the beginning (where it says to preserve anonymity, if asked to enter an email address please paste this?)
