    There was a £5 earlier today for sharing your online bank statements.
    Erm, nope. Definitely a step too far for me.

    Sharing bank statements?!

    What could possibly go wrong??

    I think that's definitely a report level type of thing if you can remember anything about it :eek:

  • I used to be able to make a tenner or so a month from prolific which was a nice little bonus with not too much effort, but they did something to the site which stopped it working at my office and has basically meant I can no longer make any money as I only used to be able to spot surveys if I had a tab open while at work. Anyone else experience this?
  • To clarify my above post, the site is not suddenly blocked at work. It's just every survey I went to click on started to get an error message.

    The error message is when you click on the reserve box a fraction too late and the spaces have already been taken.

    I'm miffed tonight because I had a £2 game survey that had to be done on a computer and neither my laptop or desktop loaded up quickly enough and I timed out. :(
    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.

    If you see a survey you want to do then don't leave it at all. There are a few with very niche demographics that hang around a bit (hours rather than minutes) but they are in the minority.
