Sorry, MLE007, I missed your post until now. I found when I closed the demonstration study down, I got the cup of tea... IYSWIM. I wonder if I can find another window of Support to request a virtual :beer: instead?

Ah cheers Smodlet I've just seen the x to close it down. Now also have a cup of tea on my page Virtual beer sounds good or some gin - it is the first day of the summer holidays after all!

I've had that a few times, where you go to reserve a place and it comes up with an error. Basically the number of places left that it is showing is not accurate and theyve all gone, or the researcher has pulled the plug.

Oooh Ive been paid for that quiz type thing already. Nice!

I've got that troll survey, sod watching someone getting electric shocked for 80 minutes. Got better stuff to do, like watch the grass die...

Or you could try watering it when the sun has gone down... I'd even watch that sshh right now, mostly to prove the blasted site actually works for me!

It's a fruitless task, the grass is rubbish and my dog doesn't help matters :rotfl:

I've been stuck on £19 for weeks, I like to wait until I'll get £20 after fees before cashing out :mad:

Smodlet

Oh, I was stuck on £19.99 two days ago and bless the researcher who paid me pennies so I could cash out yesterday, the last day of the old site, it seems. Hope you get over the £20.01 mark soon... Do you use Circle?

Yes, that's right. It shows any available studies as they appear. Generally when I'm at work and can't actually do them.

Smodlet

As far as I can tell, I have had no studies today... So far, no likee.

I don't, I cash out all my survey sites to PayPal (even though it's generally slightly worse value) just so at the end of each month I can transfer all my earnings to my bank in one go. With PayPal, over £20 it generally costs about 80p to cash out, so I aim for about £20.80 before I cash out. Daft I know, but it helps when I'm trying to keep track (plus the PayPal cash out is 2.9% + 20p so the more I cash out the lower the fee).
