£10 a day thread, part 3!

[SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock]

Noticed the last thread was full so thought i'd better start a new one.

Welcome to posters old and new :-)

Oh well done, @Patapouf! I'm Bronze rated again with UTest after slipping down to Proven yesterday.

@Patapouf oh well done! Hope it works out for you.
@Lougle well done to you too.

I hate Freetrade! I transferred £10 on 17th jan and it is still not showing and I haven't got my free share. The response from their customer service say they are looking into it with their bank. Really not impressed.

Someone asked about eBay- I do this. Mainly old clothes from the DC which I make into bundles and start them off at £3. It doesn't bother me if they sell for £3 as I usually make more from other things to balance it out. I just sold a set of Winnie the Witch books and got £11 for them which was a nice surprise. The fees are awful but I find if I can list 10-20 things at once the money does start trickling through.

Ski stuff always sells well at this time of year. I keep meaning to rummage in TK Maxx to find some nice designers. Also certain types of pottery/collectibles- you have to know what you're looking for though.

Eagerly (nervously!) awaiting my lionbridge guidelines and test link which I was told I'll get today... little one is staying at my parents tonight so hopefully I'll be able to make a good start on them.

Well done @Patapouf that's great news!

Is anyone else doing the appen annotations task and finding each sound is really really long! This is not going to be as quick as i expected.

:-( Feeling a bit 'oooff' today. Test - I can't find the bugs in the computer test cycle, I've spend ages on it and desperately want to move forward. Bugs I did for a test cycle was put forward to the client but got rejected as wad. At least I am a bit clearer on that now.

BemyEye pet project got rejected. :-(

Other surveys and things going soooo slow.

Lionbridge - got accepted for the social media project and heard nothing since. Don't know how to proceed now.

MB I am at least £19 up, so that's good, but it still scares the daylight out of me. Taking it very slowly!

It is lovely to read of all your success. I just need to get through this initial stage now, then I'm sure it'll get better.

Well done to those of you who are seeing progress so soon!

@Bemystarlord I've been accepted on to that but just get an error when I click on 'work this'. Not sure what that means :-\

@rhij86 you will get an email once they add you to the task and then the work now button will work. Sounds like they are adding a few at a time. Its been in my projects tab for ages but just got added this week.

@TheMamaYo I know how you feel, some days I'm very positive, then other days not so much!

Today is a good day because I'm pleased I've got an ongoing (hopefully) Appen project at last. And as a lapsed blogger, I'm also trying to think of a blog that I can actually make money from. My last blog was more a labour of love!

I'm taking MB very slowly too, mainly because I always seem to be trying to resolve things like uploading ID to betting sites or asking where my free bets are! I dislike many of the betting sites as they're so dark and complicated so I worry about selecting the wrong thing.

But I'm making at least £300 a month more than I was before I found this thread so overall things are looking up

@Bemystarlord ok thanks, I'll (try to) be patient! Which project are you on? Obv you can't give the full name... I only got accepted onto one of the newly listed Mea**w ones last week.

@MoreMoneyPlease well done on getting onto a long term project :)

Also about 10min after my first post this morning, the link for my lionbridge exam came through, so that's this evening sorted

@TheMamaYo

What is it that is scaring you about Matched Betting? Perhaps I Can help put your mind at ease ;)

btw, I'm going to have a nice opportunity for you all very soon where you can each get £10 for about 30 seconds work!

£10
to spend on anything, online or offline!

;)

Thanks @rhij86 and good luck to you for the lionbridge exam. Is that the social media one? The Appen project I'm on is up to an hour a day, which isn't a lot (compared to the 'work 40 hours a week' projects before Christmas!) but it will certainly keep the wolf from the door

@rhij86 its the one with a name thats similar to a woodland but bigger

Good luck with the lionbridge exam, is it the big one or the sme one? I failed the big one back when i first started doing this last year, didnt put enough time and effort in so my own fault really, but passed the sme last week and started that and liking it.

@bemystarlord it's pretty big I think, for an internet safety evaluator role. By the sound of things it's the same job as Y*kon on appen, which I've never even seen in my jobs list so should be ok as no conflict there... fingers crossed...

Apparently it's 2 or 3 parts,the first is 31 questions, multiple choice, open book, and then after that I have to do a few example questions by the sound of things. I have a week to do it and they recommend taking as much time as possible :-\

@MoreMoneyPlease I'm the same - I've gone from 40hrs a week before Christmas to nothing - desperate for anything right now! It's the internet safety evaluator one on LB.

@Bemystarlord I'm on the woodland Ann one. They are ridiculously long so the pay rate is shit. I'm hoping they adjust it! I have had whole batches where they are 2-4 mins 🙄

@rhij86 ooh thats supposed to be the holy grail of appen projects so fingers crossed :)

@justtheonethen i hope so as it too an hour to do 30 tasks without stopping be ause they were so long so about $2.70!! Ridiculous

@Moremoneyplease

I believe they reset it after 3 hours or at midnight (depending who you believe). I would do it in one home. While saying that I have done it in dribs and drabs over 3 hours but normally try and do in one sitting.

@rhij86 Good luck in the LB exam. I am also down to take it, I'm just waiting on my email for today so I can begin.

This will be my 2nd attempt as I failed first time round. 🤞

*one go

@flube - thank you, and good luck to you too!

@Bemystarlord yes I'd heard that too RE it being the 'holy grail ' thank you, will let you know how I get on. Not feeling hopeful but going to do my best!
