    I got that message too, but luckily I had just gone into the survey and read the introductory notes. But what's annoying is before I started, it said there were 15 places left and let me enter the survey before I got the message. Prolific asked why it had been returned and I told them, so I would complain to them because I would imagine a few people would have had the same experience.

    Message the researcher and raise a ticket with Prolific. You should be paid for your time.

    Ive only had 3 surveys since joining 2 and third months ago.

    My last survey was 1 and half month ago.

    Is there anyway of getting them to start coming in?

    Its a bit pointless doing this in my opinion.

    Are you waiting for emails or checking the page regularly?
    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.

    I can only assume the partner must not be checking the site regularly. I have surveys every day - and have had 4 (though annoyingly 2 were full) today alone.

    The site needs to be left open to get best results, and recommended to get the Prolific Assistant extension for Chrome also.

    I wish I could think of the £1,700 I have earnt in total from Prolific as "pointless" but I will bear that in mind.

  • I find it's a bit all or nothing with prolific ac. One month I got loads, I think it was last autumn. But then they tailed off over Christmas, and I haven't had many recently.


    Still one of the best survey sites, though, IMO. They pay fairly well and the surveys are usually quite interesting.

    You will have to assume incorrectly. Its opened and left open daily whilst i(users partner go on the internet, Currently its left open I shall update you when the next survey does pop up. So sadly I have to confirm it does seem a bit pointless as it stands.

    I even use pinecone and Qmee for that matter.
