    So after all my lack of studies for weeks, £25 in the last week, including £10 for an hour long one. 
    Happy now. 
    Was that one really slow for you? It kept taking ages to let me select each option then crashed after about 50 minutes. They still gave me the £10 though.

    Prolific has really picked up in volume recently.

    It was the one asking about whether answers to questions were plausible and reliable. Worked fine but I didn’t realise I could stop at the hour so I kept going for another 15 minutes before the penny dropped. 
    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'm the same as others here:  For quite a while I had very few surveys at all then, out of the blue and really welcome, I had about seven or so in the past three days.  Today (perhaps because it's the weekend) I have had none so 'back to normal' for now.

    Yesterday evening I was able to reserve a place (You did not complete Scientific study (~30 minutes, earn up to 100 GBP as a bonus) on time and you were timed out) and I tried to start the survey straight away from the start page. 

    It did not let me start at all and eventually said that the study was full. My options were to Return the study or finish without completing. I tried to open in a new window but with no success.  There was no option to 'dismiss' the study so I 'held on' at the start page thinking I may be allowed to start.  Eventually I was 'Timed out' although I was willing to continue immediately as soon asI had reserved the place
    .
    When 'waiting' I contacted the Researcher but, so far, did not receive a reply.

    Great result. Over what time period was that?
  • I'm up to about £1700 now, since October 2018.
  • Wow I have to agree I am getting so many more surveys again! Does anyone know what stopped them? Didn't cash anything out in October and already cashed out twice now. I do little and often but still impressed.
