Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

Yes, I got that as well.

Did anyone do this one today?

Who are you?

By Mathilde LEONARD

It was odd - it started off requesting first name and last name, but I was able to input alternatives.  Then an email address, and I used my prolific one.  Then it seemed to claim that the questions were all coming from Prolific (it was a personality study type one).

I reported it after for requesting personal information anyway.  It was all a bit odd overall.

I did that one. I made up a name and used prolific email. It did suggest that it was from prolific.

I've just cashed out under the new system.  No problems whatsoever, just twice as many pop-up windows (which they seem to call a "modal"!) and twice as many e-mails received.

Did anybody get on that one which was a survey every week for a year. Just couldn't time the click right and all 700 spaces went really quickly.

Keeps reappearing but then is full when I click on it. Reading the blurb it seems to suggest they are mid way through the year, so I don't understand why it is appearing as available to me. But the word BONUS appears a few times, so looks good.

Yes I persisted for about 20 minutes as it kept popping back up, but couldn't make it stick.

But the approval appears to only be for £3. Don't know what's actually been paid as I have others approved I haven't drawn down yet.

I couldn't get it to cashout on my laptop. Tried both Firefox and Chrome. Not sure if it is my antivirus not liking popups. Managed to get it to work via my phone.

I wish they get rid of that bloody banner about it - it’s taking up a large part of the phone screen and there’s no way to close it down.

Yes it needs a box you can click to acknowledge, so you don't have to see it again. It's taking up a lot of space on a laptop too!
