    Every single pop up I have had since this new site was foisted on us has told me I am ineligible. :( Pantser and pantser.

    Do you think it is just the time of year or is there something sinister at work with the new site, Chrisv?

    Probably just the time of year Smodlet - but the new site still has a few glitches to be ironed out I think. I've "tell us about you" under my cuppa, shows 3 alongside the about you tab, but my profile is 100% complete with no unanswered questions.

    I find this, using the new site. But if you log in at the old site, the prescreening questions are listed, and easily answered.

    The old site will not let me do anything except click on the link to the new site.

    Chrisv, have you tried going to section 3 in About You? I told them the other day that scrolling through dozens of questions all the way to the bottom to answer one was a pain. They replied that it was still under construction so maybe that is their idea of a fix...

    I had that today but it went when I refreshed the page

    Had a problem yesterday with a survey. Deadly boring one about talking text into an iPhone for 1 1/2 hours. Was in 2 minds but thought I'd have a look. Reserved a place, contacted researcher for link as per instructions. It didn't arrive, but my countdown started anyway. There then wasn't a way on the iPhone to navigate to the support page/contact researcher page unless I cancelled the study completely. Should I have done anything differently?

    No one got any useful advice then?
    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.
