    No, I didn't return the study;  I just closed the browser tab in which it had opened, and used the link from the previous page to re-open it in a new window.

    Those Pie ones are by far the best ones I've done on Prolific: mostly interesting / thought-provoking, always well paid, always immediate payment
    Oddly, these ones have not been instant payment, not that it is an issue.  

    Another two this morning.  It's almost as though they've been hacked!
    I've had four Pie AI studies recently, can't say too much about them as we are signing confidentiality clauses but three have been paid instantly or very quickly and the other one is still waiting.  I'm hoping this is because it was so brilliant I'm going to get a bonus, I was very proud of what I achieved anyway!
  • Presuming they've all stopped for Christmas now then? Not had anything through since very early this morning and nothing that's waiting seems to be getting approved

    I've just this minute completed one (Simulated Decision Making at Work), which credited instantly.  It was my third today.

    I've just completed an hour-long AI chatbot one (not from Pie, this time) which paid a very nice £15.

    I just completed an hour-long AI chatbot one too, MollyR.  The £15 will be most welcome. My submission (about 10 minutes ago) is still 'Awaiting Review.'  Has yours been approved already, MollyR?

    No, it's still waiting;  but I am confident that it will turn up sometime!  And it's nice to click on Balance and see "Waiting for approval: £31.31".

    Yes - It's lovely when the Balance is so healthy, MollyR.  I have this £15 waiting for approval and some Pie ones from 16 December (£5 ones) also waiting for approval.

    Happy Christmas!
