    Thanks, I will certainly look into that then! much appreciate the suggestion :) With ever more ID requirements coming in for various things, I feel like sooner or later it is going to be sensible to have at least something up my sleeve.

    You get the videos to check and select the one you like. Some of them will be repeated. My view is that you get that message where you don't give the same answer for two showings of the same video / picture. 
    yes I think you might be right - I will make sure I choose the same one, thanks

    Prolific is quite dead for me right now except for studies that require you to be on camera that I don't want to do.

    Sounds like you're back in rotation. I did get one last week but nothing regular.

    I got some of those low paying ai ones from Franc Camps Febrer and they actually worked for a change. I wouldn't normally do AI work for pay that low but I don't have any other doable studies on my dashboard and I was aiming to try and make another £25 by the end of the week.

    If anyone gets a pre-screening survey for an £85 payment for a half an hour video interview, it’s a scam. “ Researcher” appears to be using a referral link to get people to sign up to a survey site called opinion bureau. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I keep being offered these which I've no interest in. They must be spending a fortune.
