I've received a Paypal payment today, it was sent within minutes, with no fee deducted.

I've just hit £5 and am so tempted to cash out just to see what happens. I don't remember seeing anything about there being a minimum amount to cash out without fees with this new magic PayPal; does anyone else?

No, there are no fees with PayPal and no minimum amount. Anything over £5. I cashed out last week with just over £5 and there were no fees.

I wonder why joeyjimbles had to pay a fee, then. Here's hoping it was a mistake and will be refunded.

Correct

I would raise it with them.

Hi, sorry in advance if this is a stupid question, but how does this thread work? I am signed up to prolific and do surveys when I can online but they fill up quickly and miss many, I am guessing people post them here but how does that work in notifying people before they go on Prolific, thanks !

Hi ledoof and welcome to the thread.

You will only get invites for surveys for which you are eligible. Eligibility is determined by your demographics, so make sure your "About You" section is fully completed and regularly updated. I have installed a chrome extension that audibly advises me of surveys, to ensure I can get in there quickly. This is because the survey quotas are filled very fast and the extension gives me a small advantage.

HI,

Thanks - I'm still unclear what the purpose of this thread is though, listing new surveys - how does that help others ? sorry if its obvious but I am a bit baffled.

Because not everyone can have a Prolific window open, waiting for a survey. So by posting up a new survey here, it can alert members and help them to earn money too. That is the theory anyhow...
