    You are very welcome, MLE007. Imho and fwiw, you are one of the kindest people on this board.

    I signed up to Prolific three weeks ago, had five studies in the first two days earning a total of about £3, and nothing since, just more and more personal pre-screening questions. I'm tempted to delete all my answers and try entering them again... with tweaks!

    Only ever be honest with your prescreeners. People are trying to get data for studies - for real life things like masters and doctorates (I am doing one myself right now). Youd be mortified to spend your own money only for people to effectively cheat you.
    Im a big believer that people doing research want others from all walks of life, it might be quiet right now (it happens) but it will pick up, and it tends to be ripe between March-June.
    Always remember this is not your standard survey site...if you want one of those then Swagbucks, GlobalTestMarket et al are you places to visit.

    Same happened to me!

    At the end it asked for an ID, I put my Prolific ID in and then it said I had taken the survey but this was the first time taking part 2!

    No completion code here either, but it's already been approved :)

    Yep, been paid so no harm, no foul, right? Would love to know how they think they are going to send a picture when they have no email address but I don't want it anyway so what the heck?
  • Another weird and wonderful one, you could right click on the image to save it if you wanted to :D

    I purposely did not do that, MLE007... They kept on about "sending" it.
  • Ah I must've missed that! They can send the bonus though, that will be nice :)

    Well, your luck seems to be going that way; mine sure as hell is not.
