Hope you’re all well and have had a fantastic month of money making in April. And of course, welcome to anyone just joining us. I’ve finally managed to hopefully put together a more comprehensive list of absolutely everything I can think of to help people maximise their earnings in these uncertain times, some are referral links where me/the user earn some sort of reward, but you are under no obligation at all to use them. As always, referral links are more than welcome

I just want to get this out of the way and say that please, I know times are really tough for so many people, and tensions are high, but please don’t take it out on others on this thread. I really want this to be a place of support, rather than people ripping into each other in frustration. People on here also aren’t being intentionally secretive or evasive about work they are doing, it’s simply a case of not wanting to risk breaching their NDA and losing income.

Today is my 1-year anniversary with Appen. Yay! It also means my 12-month project with Truckee is most likely almost over. Boo!

My potato update. I'm really enjoying it. I'm up to £5 an hour for speed and that's before I do any of their wacky suggestions to increase productivity so I'm starting to get less panicky about losing Truckee. I don't have anything else to do at the moment so I've upped my target to £5 a day for that one. I have no idea how I am doing for quality though? No news is good news?

Wtfdidwedo · 17/05/2020 12:10

I've been going for about a month with hem now too MrsWombat and haven't heard anything about quality. I wondered if they would tell you straight away if you're crap or if they'll make me think I'm ok then tell me I'm sacked in a few weeks Grin

Otterses · 17/05/2020 12:44

@527040minutes

No such thing as a stupid question Smile

Has it actually let you download the app?

OP posts:
Otterses · 17/05/2020 12:46

@Wtfdidwedo

From memory you get told pretty much within minutes/within 24 hours if you've made an error. Even if you do, they're really friendly and supportive, and explain how to make a better assessment of similar items in the future, I promise it's not like a telling off Grin

527040minutes · 17/05/2020 12:49

@Otterses it has, so I've now got the app. But the link's still opening a webpage which is just redirecting me to the App Store! I'm on iPhone if it helps. Don't want to waste the free share if it's something simple I'm missing!

Do you want to get a free stock share worth up to £ 100?

£1 deposit required.

anxietrist · 17/05/2020 13:15

Wow this is all alien to me but I'm going to have a read as cash is tight 😕

Otterses · 17/05/2020 13:32

@527040minutes

That is really strange! May be worth contacting support. I just uninstalled and went via one of the free share links to redoubled and it and its let me start registering as a new user without redirecting me to the website  anyone else had this issue?

Free shares last forever with trading212  so don't worry about wasting one.

@anxietrist it is all a bit overwhelming at first. We're all here for a handhold though and can try to help you figure out what's going to fit in best with your circumstances Smile what do you ideally want to earn and how much time do you have to spare?

fanniee · 17/05/2020 13:38

Thanks for the tip Ottersea, I've just ordered some Lloyd's shares.

www.trading212.com/invite/FMO8bzWf

Here's my link if anyone wants to join in, you'll need to top up £1 but don't need to spend it. The free share comes through very quickly

@mrswombat what are the tips for increasing speed on crisp? Obviously I have two tabs open but I've not seen any wacky tips, what am I missing? Thank you.

MrsWombat · 17/05/2020 13:56

@fanniee That was the tip I was talking about. I've not been brave enough to do that yet. There's also something about using the arrow keys instead of mouse. There's a bit on the wiki about it.

@anxietrist Welcome! My favourites for earning a bit of pin money straight away are Clickworker and Prolific. Appen and uTest will bring good money if you get on the right projects. Crisp AKA the potato people is worth getting on the waiting list for long term work. Good luck.

cheesemongery · 17/05/2020 14:28

Hello new to this - I copied a link on page 25 for 100 free shares and deposited a £ but I don't have any free ones ?

Please can somebody click my link - thank you :)

Fizbo · 17/05/2020 14:36

Are any of the new potato people not submitting their first invoice? I think I read on here or on the Wiki that it's not worth doing unless you earn a certain amount? I started late into April so have less then £20! Although my speed has gone up so I'm also aiming for £5 a day during May Smile

Wtfdidwedo · 17/05/2020 14:49

You can't submit it below £20 I don't think, I'm sure that's what the Wiki says.

MrsWombat · 17/05/2020 15:06

@Fizbo I don't think they will process it if it is less than £20 so you roll it over to next month? I managed to get mine to £24 thankfully, so I can test out the invoice procedure on a small amount. Smile

Fizbo · 17/05/2020 15:13

@MrsWombat @Wtfdidwedo thank you I will wait for next month. I feel it's getting a little easier and I'm not second guessing myself as much! Fingers crossed I can speed up a little more

527040minutes · 17/05/2020 15:22

Thanks @Otterses I'll contact support! I thought I was doing something wrong! I don't feel as thick now Grin

cheesemongery · 17/05/2020 16:22

Hello again, can somebody help please - I didn't receive any free shares - and have just bought 3 with my £1 deposit - what have I done wrong?

Thank you in advance.

If you did it over the weekend @cheesemongery it'll usually take till Monday to be credited to your account. Did you join in the last couple of days or quite a while ago?

@wtfdidwedo thanks for using link :) you will get your share in 1 business day usually

cheesemongery · 17/05/2020 20:08

Ah thank you @Otterses - it's all new to me. I've been working through 20cogs before joining this thread so hopefully will get somewhere like in the near future. I just wish I'd done 20cogs before OMD. Hey ho.

I bought 3 shares in Lloyds lol.

Mammyofonlyone · 18/05/2020 08:00

Hi, Im not sure if Im ok to post this, pls delete if its not allowed.
The business I work for are in the process of launching some new market research surveys and we need people to complete them - obviously people will be paid. I wondered if I may be able to ask for respondents/people to take part here?
I totally understand if this is not allowed, please let me know and just delete

margaritasbythesea · 18/05/2020 08:35

Otterses - to answer your question about Hargreaves Lansdown. I have used them for ISAs for years, which might not be exactly what you want. My experience is that their main advantage is how simple it us to understand and use their platform. The website and customer support is the best out there imo. I looked around at other platforms but came back to them even though they used to be better value than they are now as they are made for amateur investors like me.

That said, I wasn't willing to devote much time and energy to learning a new site. I wouldn't be surprised if you put more effort into it!

MrsWombat · 18/05/2020 10:28

@Otterses I use AJ Bell for my kids ISAs and I have a small ISA with them too. If you buy their own funds there is no purchase fee. Normal funds are £1.50 and shares are £9.99 so might not be what you are looking for!
