Are you allowed to apply for more than one job on Appen to see which one you get, or can you only do one at a time?

What is Freelancer @Kaylsar? I haven't heard of that one.

I haven't been offered any snacks yet, but I only qualified in January.

Just done part 1 of lionbridge test but then it goes back to desktop tasks and it's still there saying acquire if available. Does this mean it didn't submit? 😩

Gosh it’s been busy in here today!! So pleased we all got paid and congratulations to all of the new potato people 😀!!

@Curdsandwhey apply for all of them, some you can’t do together for example any that fall under the M**a umbrella but all that will happen is you will be given one of the ones you qualify for if they need anyone and then when that finishes or runs out of work you may be added to one of the other ones you are qualified for if that makes sense. So just apply for everything you fancy 😀.

Also the hour a day ones named after rivers, I applied for all of them last year, got offered one and the other two just dropped off my project list so if they are related and you can’t work them together they sort it out, you wouldn’t accidentally be working two you can’t work together.

@Madre77 Good Luck! You will ace it!

@unicornpoopoop I got an email to say they couldn't enter me for the exam as they're currently experiencing technical difficulties with it! Might be worth contacting them to let them know you're having issues?

Hello everyone. :-) I've been doing scrubs for NHS work so not much time to earn extra. Just trying to catch up now. What is the potato talk all about? So utterly confused. Hope you are all well and healthy.

Well the salty snack test went as well as my first 2 driving tests. FML!! I hope I am not the exception to the rule. I am praying to the mircoworking gods that they take pity on me.

@Curdsandwhey- that’s great to hear about 20cogs, I guess I’ll just wait for now.

@Lougle- it’s freelancer.com. An online freelance services website. There’s loads of projects up from writing, editing, photoshop to website design and accounting. You have to ‘bid’ on the project and then the potentially employer contacts you. It’s usually short contracts but it’s good pay for those of us in the UK.

This morning I managed to do a 35p survey with Prolific.
I cashed out my free share that I got from Trading212- it’s only £9.50 but was really declining. It was American Airlines so not surprised about the decline lol

This is my referral link Do you want to get a free stock share worth up to ‎£ 100?

Create a Trading212Invest account using this link www.trading212.com/invite/FfWEvGT

Deposit £1 minimum and we both get a free share worth up to £100. It’s good because even if you don’t want to do the whole trading thing, you can just sell the share and get some quick cash.

Please could I just check which potato test everyone is talking about?

Is it the first one you do when you register and need to get 19/20 (I got 18 a few days ago and I've heard nothing back after that initial email) or are you all doing something that comes after that? Thanks for any answers to clarify for me.

@Darkpassenger, yes, that's what they're talking about.

Thanks @Kaylsar. Can your work be rejected after you've done it?

Anyone else not received money into PayPal account from appen yet?

Anyone working on Appen Oz**k this morning? Anyone else having severe timeout issues?

@toastytea I haven't yet. Also nothing is showing in my Payoneer account but my invoice on Appen still says paid.

Also I read that for b+++ pt 3 will have a limit of 10 mins. That will be interesting!

@toastytea 10mins for part 2 will be equally interesting

@toastytea @flube same situation here, apparently Payoneer are working on it
This whole project has been a shit show!

Has anyone else not had their potato invoice paid yet? I sent it in yesterday morning and It's always been same day up to now.

@darkpassenger no it's not that one people are talking about.

You need to redo the initial one until you get 19/20. Then wait, anything up to a year. Some people haven't been contacted at all.

Then you get further information and a final test that you can only take once and are allowed 1, possibly 2 mistakes on.

Then you're in.

@EchoLocation it's fucking ridiculous. One thing after another.

I really liked working B*ne. I could also do with the extra money.

But I honestly don't plan on working for them if tasks come available (not unless I am absolutely desperate). The stress really isn't worth it.

@SpirallingThroughAnotherDay I haven't yet either.

Thank you @AdaShelby, someone did say to redo the 20 earlier in the thread but I got a bit confused by all the later comments.

When I get home I'll go back and try and find how to redo. Do you know if it's an obvious 'Redo test here' or do I restart the whole registration process again?

Thanks again for your help.

I messaged lionbridge and they said I only submitted 30 out of the 31 questions and there should have been a final question on the final page. This wasn't shown to me as I just clicked next after each page until it ended. They said I need to go back in to finish but when I go back in all my answers have disappeared. Looks like il need to complete the test again 🤦‍♀️

@NCforsafety Some more tasks that I did yesterday have disappeared from my dashboard I've emailed Neevo but just wondered if you'd had a response from them?

Thanks @justtheonethen a bit relieved it's not just me tbh. Hopefully today then and same goes for Ap*en, if someone would actually like to pay me that would be lovely thanks! Ha
