    Me neither. It just hangs and I have tried Chrome and Firefox on windows and Mac.

    Will contact researcher. Annoying as another was available. Asked for £1.25 compensation for the 15 minutes loading.

    It will not load for me either! I have tried using both windows, the iMac and using the hotspot from my phone. There must be a problem with the study itself. 

    Typical when it’s the first study I’ve had in ages! I’ve contacted the researcher.

    I just wanted to update you all. The study did load for me in the end, but I was nearly an hour into it when it just froze and would not allow me to proceed any further - I am not happy. I have contacted the researcher (again) and I am hoping that I receive a response. 
  • I really dislike when I researcher knows there has been a problem with their study but all you hear from them is silence.

    I perservered through several freezings (refreshing the page worked but slowed it down as I went back a little at the refresh) and an age to load in the first place. It took me about 1hr 40m - even without freezing I'd say 90 mins. Have messaged the researcher. I don't often complain about the pay/time but this one seemed a bit blatant.

    I got an almost instant reply - said it was technical issues which they were working to resolve which made it take longer (I'm not convinced) than expected but ignored the pay aspect. This might need to involve Prolific.
