    Been here a few days now and earned the princely sum of £2.99; that 9p survey will kick me over the £3 line when its been approved.

    Interestingly the one that I bowed out of half way through that I thought was a repeat of another I'd completed has been approved.

    Are there any surveys at the weekend, or does it all go quiet?

    Do I need to refresh the page, or do new surveys post automatically?

    Have a great weekend!

  • Yes there are occasional studies at the weekend, Silvercar. There never seems to be any rhyme or reason sometimes there are loads just one after the other then at other times it's like the sahara desert for weeks on end! Mostly I find I do a few a week.

    New surveys are supposed to appear automatically now, although I do still have a habit of refreshing the page.

    Happy weekend to you all too :)

    I do that too, mainly out of habit checking the page anyway as a lot of error 500s sneak up on me and I wouldn't know without checking the tab :)
  • Yes I'm still getting the 500 errors too, I do wonder how many surveys I miss out on because of them as I don't have visual ping installed anymore so it's back to the old fashioned way of checking :)

    Yes, it was. I contacted both the researcher and PA about it 'cos I just lurve being ignored. It's working so far. I am hoping the researcher just forgot to fill in that box. Can't see too many people doing surveys for free.

    Yeah must be an error, I certainly wouldn't work for free! 160 odd places had been taken though - I wonder if those people actually did it for the love of survey taking :D
