Did anyone else do this (rather long and tedious) survey and get a DNS error right when they clicked 'Submit' ?

As far as I can tell the error was generated from the remote server, and have raised a ticket about it, but would be interested to know if I'm right and it was indeed an issue with the survey.

YES meeeee!!! I submitted a NOCODE and contacted the researcher about it.

Had to laugh at the buying products from abroad one - I got the USA, and one question asked my views on the US government then a big comment in brackets clarifying that I was not to think specifically about the Trump administration. Kinda hard not to, when there's a narcissistic idiot in the White House.

- You tend not to get email notifications, for best results you need to keep your browser open all the time to jump on the surveys

There is a google chrome app called Prolific Assistant, if you download that a notification will pop up when there is a study available. You click it and it will take you there. This refreshes and searches for studies every minute. Just remember to close your browser (if you keep your laptop on over night like me) or you'll hear a
"new studies on prolific" at 3 in the morning :rotfl:

You can cash out any time can't you? I did a survey at 7:15 this morning that paid £7, it was approved within a minute of me finishing it, and I had cashed out to Paypal and then into my bank by 7:45!
I think that since Circle went and Paypal became the only option, cashing out became instant.

My first 3 or 4 cash outs I had to wait until Tuesday or Thursday so receive them - they are instant after that.

I did a study recently which was £3.97 for 20 minutes plus a bonus... I got £4.20 bonus! Because I got 80% right - I know I got around 5 wrong that I knew was right so I wonder how much more I would have got if I got those right! I feel like they made a mistake with the bonus but oh well it's in my bank now lol!! It was quite hard - you had to memorize either the order of a list or memorize one list out of 2. This one:

I've only had about 3 surveys for the last 2 months or so. One of them screened me out within 1 min. That was about 2 weeks ago and the status is now at returned.

It is all about demographics maybe where you are at people get less studies.

since I moved up an age bracket, I get far fewer surveys.

This is really annoying. I signed up for the Well being Skype study and arranged a Skype interview for 8.30 this morning. I got ready early and have been waiting for the link to the interview but there's nothing. I've messaged the person who is doing the study but no reply. Has anyone else done this study successfully? I've rearranged my morning so that I can do it.
