    Have only managed to complete one study so far. I seem to have to go through an endless stream of pre-screening questions before I can become eligible for a study.

    Has anyone else had their account under review? I am 99% sure I have answered all of the pre-study questions accurately so not sure why my account is being looked at for consistency unless it is just a random thing...

    Several of us have had accounts flagged but don't normally get told why or even that it has happened. Must be a new thing.

    Eh? Am I missing something? 6 minutes for 60p is par for the course, if not amazing. Certainly not poor.

    On the homepage there are not many surveys and only 1 paying half decent money. Mega boo.

    Normally I would agree but it was about disgust and I can live without that.
