Same here- I am missing a payment and got the same message. Seems odd that some are fine and others are not.
I agree, I would have expected all the Circle payments to fail if there was an issue.
I've now had an email confirming a payment received in Circle. I've transferred it to my bank and am crossing my fingers that it arrivesSaving a house deposit. Member no.7 100% of target

I had a £3 one the other day but I have to agree that there are lots of tiny ones around and not many higher paying although it is easier to find 5 minutes to do a survey several times a day than an hour in one go.0 -

My outlook on this is...
I am unsure if the amount of academic surveys have increased - I am unsure why they should, barring an influx of students, why would they?
However, I would happily put money that the number of people using Prolific has significantly increased in the 2 years I have been using it. Therefore, there are fewer surveys to go around.
Also consider this is an academic survey site - and consider where we are in the academic year - the number of available surveys are going to be lower now then in say 6 months.
More often then not I get a survey a day, of varying lengths, but it is still by far my biggest paying site. Qmee is next, where £15 a month is standard. With Prolific generally £30-40 a month.Debt: May 15: £17335 Jul 16: £13874 Jan 17: £11,606 Dec 18: £8,308 Sept 19: £4,969 Jul 21: £890

Having just completed the 'Talk is cheap, want to bet' survey, I have now been offered it again. After the debacle a few days ago when I completed a survey 3 times but was only paid for one, is it safe to repeat a survey?I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.
