That should cover most of what was discussed in the last thread! I'm just realising I've forgotten transcription sites so I'll add those on now.

As always, referral links are always more than welcome Smile

@Aliciawhiskers the only one I can get on with is the 'verify answer correctness' one - all of the others may as well be written in another language for all the sense I can make of them, and have failed a test on most of the others at least once!!

SuzieQi · 05/02/2020 11:24

Same, I've struggled with some of the qualifications. It doesn't help that some of their "correct" answers are out of date, so you're deemed to be wrong when in fact you're right.

BertieBotts · 05/02/2020 11:27

Oh! I thought I was the only one with the out of date info. That really annoyed me! Oh well, I passed overall anyway.

BertieBotts · 05/02/2020 11:29

Totally failed a Bemyeye this morning. Staff were all over the aisle I needed and I was going to run out of time before they finished restocking so I gave up. Annoying because how can you realistically account for this? I wondered about asking what their official policy is.

anxiouswaiting · 05/02/2020 11:35

I agree with the comments about MoneyShed. I do like the site but pushing it so much in here was irritating me and actually the snide remarks on Twitter about Mumsnetters just prove he wasn't here to help but to make money from us.

I'm still waiting for some Appen work to start and some isoftsone too. Lionbridge don't want me.

Anyone work for Crowdsurf? Transcription work. Also applied for Modsquad which was acknowledged but no offer of work. Applied for Cloudworkers again acknowledged but nothing more.

Doing an appen annotation project where pay is terrible. Also an appen that does UHRS and I keep getting kicked out. I am sure there are glitches in their system.

Finally got UHRS on Clickworker too- assessment didnt show for ages and then finally did when I confirmed my paypal account so I may try some UHRS there too.

Someone mentioned going to fast on UHRS yes I think that does get you kicked out. I've been kicked out even with projects where not a single answer is wrong but I have worked really quickly. did some digging online and it does seem that what they do.

anxiouswaiting · 05/02/2020 11:39

Can I share my Appen referral please

connect.appen.com/qrp/public/jobs?uref=2c2bc6b3ab7d0a537b0cf0edd60367b1

and my airtime rewards which has been great for me, they have paid this months phone bill Grin no effort basically cashback linked to your credit and debit cards.

My favourite retailers now pay for my mobile bill, join @airtimerewards and get free credit using my code 6A9RMCKD airtimerewards.app.link/friend

rhij86 · 05/02/2020 11:45

@anxiouswaiting - I'll definitely slow down on the UHRS then! Going slow and steady today, made $25 so far.
With the airtime rewards, will it work if my phone bill is in my husbands name?

With UHRS through clickworker, does anyone know if it's clickworkers that pay us or someone else? When can I expect what I've earned in UHRS to show in my pending clickworkers balance?

AliciaWhiskers · 05/02/2020 11:52

When does the money earned on UHRS show up on Clickworker? I got chucked off so came out of it but my total doesn't seem to have gone up at all?! In fact it's gone down as I got paid today just to confuse things!

AliciaWhiskers · 05/02/2020 11:54

Sorry ignore previous comment, I can see it on the UHRS instead now.

rhij86 · 05/02/2020 11:54

@aliciawhiskers no idea - wondering that myself. My money from yesterday hasn't shown up yet. I may email them Confused

anxiouswaiting · 05/02/2020 11:55

@rhij86 oh I am not sure but looking on my app the only details I entered are my name, mobile number, phone network and that its pay monthly. I am guessing you could put your husbands name in if is happy for you to. I have both mine and my husbands bank and credit cards linked as well and the transactions always track from all the cards

rhij86 · 05/02/2020 11:58

@anxiouswaiting oh brilliant, thank you - I'll use your link and set it up this evening :)

Catatemyhomework · 05/02/2020 12:00

@MoreMoneyPlease, yes it was the Newcastle game. I had Newcastle to win, but they didn't pay out. I queried it and apparently they only pay out if the win was in full time, not extra time. A bit annoyed, but luckily it was only a £5 trigger bet and I did then get £20 in free bets. I am wary now though incase it happens again.

MoreMoneyPlease · 05/02/2020 12:06

@Catatemyhomework I had the same bet to activate my free bets! I've been in touch with them and I should get my free bets by the end of the day.

This the first time I've heard of this happening in all my four long weeks of MB experience Grin I'll ask about it on the Team Profit FB page, they're very helpful on there.

Catatemyhomework · 05/02/2020 12:16

@MoreMoneyPlease, yes, I find Team Profit very helpful and it's free! Their videos are easy to understand too.

StudentHelp · 05/02/2020 12:19

Has anyone used honey gain and been paid?
How long did it take to reach threshold please

Also, one of my queued free shares has disappeared on free trade

otterses · 05/02/2020 12:21

@mumofone2019

Sorry you're feeling under the weather as well Sad you're right though, flexibility makes this sort of work perfect for when you don't feel up to working.

Toobuktim · 05/02/2020 12:23

Have just sat the Appen England Forester test, but failed and I’m not sure why really. Are you supposed to put in capital letters and full stops etc (which I did)? Any advice would be great!

Toobuktim · 05/02/2020 12:25

Have just read the guidelines and no punctuation! So I’ll resit it and will have my fingers crossed!

Toobuktim · 05/02/2020 12:26

Serves me right for not reading the guidelines beforehand!

anxiouswaiting · 05/02/2020 12:27

Hope no-one minds I also have a Top Cashback referral. I've been with them since about 2016 and made £1,800 -could have got more but sometimes I forget to use it!

You get a £5 M&S gift card and I get a referral bonus

anxiouswaiting · 05/02/2020 12:31

@GachaBread toddler is napping so I should be doing housework but instead I am going to read that Grin

StudentHelp · 05/02/2020 12:32

I also have a topcashback referral link if anyone would like it they can PM me Smile as it includes my name.

I can vouch for topcashback too, have been a member since 2015 and earned over £230 even as a teen/student so if you’re changing internet providers etc there’s a lot of money to be made

rhij86 · 05/02/2020 12:40

I've just had the following email from clickworkers about payment for UHRS work. Essentially, money earned will be added on clickworker the following week, and paid 4 weeks later:

Thank you for your email.

As UHRS jobs are done entirely on the client’s platform, the payment process is a little different than work done on clickworker.com. Here’s how it works:

  1. At least 20 minutes after you submitted a job, it will appear in the [My Report] section of UHRS. This section is for tracking your earnings because UHRS jobs are not tracked in your clickworker.com work history.

  2. Money earned for the period SUN-SAT is added to your clickworker balance the following week, usually on Monday morning, but it can be later in the week. This is listed in your account history as a manual bonus payment. It then takes 28 days to become payable.

  3. During those 28 days UHRS has the chance to quality check your work and give us feedback if necessary.

  4. After 28 days, the amounts become payable and are paid on the following bill run between Wednesday and Friday.

The general schedule is as follows:
Work done on UHRS 4 weeks ago > paid this week
Work done on UHRS 3 weeks ago > paid next week
Work done on UHRS 2 weeks ago > paid in 2 weeks
and so on.
