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

[silverhoop]

I haven't had a study since 22/03/16

I sent a message to Prolific and they said it was because I hadn't completed the Pre-Screening questions.

I have, but, there was a further 2 or 3 that I hadn't done. I have now updated them too but still haven't received a study.

Anyone else in the same boat or is it just me?

Is it maybe because of the Easter break?

Just wondering if anyone else is getting studies or not.

[member=289]silverhoop[/member] I had the same problem last month but seem to have had at least one survey every day this month so far so keep checking, it seems to ebb and flow

I have had the odd quiet time, however, with the alerts thread on here and page monitor for Chrome I'm not missing many (when I'm online).

What an awful website, very slow

[member=410]usa1[/member] You need to be a little patient with them. They seem to be a victim of their own success and keep outgrowing their servers. It goes slow for a little while, but they tend to fix it quite fast.

It's worth the effort, they're the best paying survey site around and never dump you out 20 mins in to a 30 min survey like some others.

Did anyone do the study about the newspaper article today? (about the company donating to charity). I just completed it, but it didn't ask for my Prolific ID and I got taken to an error page at the end, so who knows if payment will arrive!

 

[Rs20033]

[member=1325]fivecats[/member] it did the same to me. I refreshed the page and it went back to the beginning. I couldn't be bothered to do it again in case it happened again so I cancelled it... You could try emailing the researcher. I think that worked for me once.

 

[fivecats]

Thanks - will drop the researcher a line. Looks like the site is having problems again today, as I couldn't access the site at all after doing that study.

I had this issue. I dropped them a message but I'm not hopeful!

Yes, I had the same problem, but there was a message to say my answers had been recorded & payment would be processed. Perhaps they tagged this on the end once they realised there was a problem? I've dropped the researcher a line in any case & would advise anyone who had an issue to the same - they're usually very good at sorting things like this out.

BTW - probably teaching everyone to suck eggs here, but always make sure you click on the I've Finished button on Prolific if the study doesn't take you back automatically. That way it should at least show in your studies list with NOCODE as the completion code.

Thanks for the info

 

[Uhhhhh]

I've just had a study rejected and a message from the researcher to say I'd gone over the time limit...but I have a valid completion code, so that can't be right can it? I know in the past when I've timed out the code that shows is "Timed-Out".
