    I've just done it and feel downright dirty. Ugh! Certainly should have paid at least £5. Yuck. My choice, I know. Only pathetic excuse I have is the desperate dearth of studies compared to this time last year. I really earned that poxy, pathetic £1.25... He has just paid me, though.

    I would have thought they would pay more given the content.. guess not!

    I don't do studies offering less than £5 p/h (unless they only take a few minutes) just on principle. And certainly not for studies of that nature 0_0

    Make £2020 in 2020 - £263.78/£2020

    I have just sent in this email to Prolific:
    Hi,
    I recently undertook the above survey. Sorry I have not been able to email sooner, I have been busy with work.
    I have no issues with the survey itself, however the amount we were paid for the survey was lower then what you recommend - £1.25 for 25 minutes work - which comes in at roughly £3 an hour. I thought you required all researchers to pay at £5 an hour?
    I think also given the topic of the study, which is very sensitive, is there any way the above survey can be looked at - as I feel we have been underpaid for the time we have put in here.
    Kind Regards,
    Mike.

    I suspect nothing will happen, but if you dont ask you never get.

    Mine is for the gents version btw and not the laydeez.

    Just started a study (something about moods) for 1.70. Which it said was compatible with mobile but can't progress because it's telling me to press "o" to continue but there's no text box! So I can't press it! I've messaged the researcher to ask them for more time so I can do it on my pc at lunch. How annoying!

    I heard mention of a £30er one time.

    I think the best one I had was a multi week diary where if you filled it in everyday you got something like £15 - it was like record 2 seconds a day. It was quite cool to be honest. About a year ago now!
