I signed up to loads of survey panels then realised most were paying buttons and frequently disqualifying me then fobbing me off with sweepstake entries. PA is the only one where I have made better than minimum wage on the time taken.

Just signed up today and had £2.75 worth of surveys already. Hopefully it will continue, fingers crossed

I got rejected for the music one too! I always read carefully and can usually spot an attention check a mile off! It'll be interesting to see what the researcher replies [member=4097]Knopfler[/member]

Hummmm, interesting. Not heard anything back yet from my message to them. Will post back on here if I do, thanks.

I've had a few rejections now and my score is still 100 because there are so few of them compared to accepted so don't worry about it too much but just make sure you look out for those questions.

I don't think I did the one you've mentioned though so couldn't tell you what might have been wrong.

Always worth very polite messages though as some researchers will change the decision.

Thanks, [member=3120]Falanouc[/member] . I am usually very careful and it is strange that [member=224]Topaz[/member] was rejected too.

I have rejected a couple of them myself recently, when starting them and finding they needed me to download something (which I am always wary of). Perhaps that is the reason for my perfect score going down then.

Prolific Academic is one of my favourite survey sites, too. They offer really interesting studies, tasks, quizzes, memory tests, political opinions and all sorts of things. I cash out regularly. I find the best way to get studies, is to leave the tab open on your laptop. You can then just refresh it now and again to see if anything is available. They also send out survey notifications sometimes, too.

My referral link is - https://www.prolific.ac/rp?ref=D9AKH33U

Thanks :)

Just had my PA account hacked.

They requested a payment to the email address toxatow2@gmail.com

Thankfully could change it back but to have changed it in the first place they would have needed to know my password :mad: :mad: Contacted PA. If you get a cashout notification, check it.

It just happened to me too at the weekend - it was the cashout notification that alerted me. Luckily I managed to change all the emails addresses back (account & PayPal) and my PayPal password is different. I notified [member=694]ProlificAc[/member] but haven't heard anything back and the money is safely in my PayPal but I'm now paranoidly checking bank and PP accounts daily and have changed the password for that email address.

They did eventually reply to me and link me to https://haveibeenpwned.com/ saying my details would have been taken from one of those sites I'd been hacked on... how they know that I don't know.

They said they would pass it on to tech or something and I had hoped they would contact everyone who may have been hacked but apparently not.

Thankfully no further PA hacking. If you do get hacked and they claim a payment under £20 where you'd normally wait, just ask them to cancel it so you don't get hit by fees.
