    Todays been rubbish so far. No surveys from Prolific, and raining at the cricket so cant even watch the live stream of Surrey v Sussex. And Im still waiting for a cash out from last week from Prolific to boot. Half term smarf term.

    :rotfl: Sorry but you do make me chuckle!

    Prolific has been anything but for me the last few months, too.

    Make £2020 in 2020 - £263.78/£2020

    2020 totals
    Swagbucks - £100 | Prolific Academic - £44.54 | Qmee - £10 | PopulusLive - £50

    I try!

    I have an absence of Prolific, Qmee or Swagbucks surveys, meaning I am on Global Test market at the mo. Not too bad going, though I have just done a 20 minute survey on biscuits, which was less then thrilling.

    It feels much later then 1.25pm to me right now....plenty of time for some prolific action this afternoon. A nice ripe £100er for 2 minutes of my time will do nicely.

    The topic/quality of research was not relevant to the actual survey ;)

    As far as I could see it bared little impact on the rest of the study.
