Welcome to the first thread of 2021. I'll try and put the links up but failing that, here's a link to the last thread.

Dec Earn £10/day. Santa's coming (hopefully with sacks of money!) http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/legalmoneyy_matters/4095115-dec-earn-10-day-santa-s-coming-hopefully-with-sacks-of-money

Welcome newbies and veterans. Here's to lots of extra income.

I’m getting quite tempted by this buying stuff project, seeing some of the stuff. I’m assuming you get reimbursed for the stuff and can keep it or send it back?

Yes that's right @Redcrayons

I'm so intrigued as to what this disgusting chocolate is

Did the availability survey for A*. Would quite enjoy doing that again & seeing what delights I wnd up with.

The chocolate isn't Doisy and Dam is it? I treated myself to some of that and it was all horrible.

Thabk you @whysotriggered. Have the silly cough which is becoming so annoying myself and anyone who has covid make a speedy recovery x

• pray myself and anyone who has covid make a speedy recovery, (sorry folks typo error)

@Wolfff. Normally I would but I’m starting work before homeschool and working again after sometimes until nearly 10pm. I’m doing the ap&en while watching TV before bed. Is just too much at the mo. And no content at 6am either. I think I’m try and get some done this weekend and then contact them to see what they say.

Morning all, query on the "collection of trees" project on Ap*. Has anyone done the previous version, is it a long term project? Wanting to calculate whether doing the 2nd quiz is worth my time as it is paying 0.049 per task.

Newbie here. Thank you for this, my shop is non essential so currently closed I need to earn a few extra pennies.

I just did a language test for one of the App** projects - and failed with a score of less than 20% This is very strange - I know that my answers were correct. I am finding their platform very frustrating and I think I am going to give up on using it.

I have had much more luck with one of the other sites though :)

I applied for Fo***r on Appen. Didn't even get to take the test. Just immediate email telling me they are unable to move forward with my qualification. That's the second time I've applied for an appen project in the last week and not got to do the assessment 😢

Grr. I just did the qualification test for F&&&&&&& and failed. I know I can retake it but it takes ages. Haha. I'm usually of the opinion that if the qualification exam is a pain the whole project is going to be frustrating but I'm pretty desperate now, so will have to try again later. Yay...

That's the test I just failed. I know or certain I could not have scored less than 20% on it. So frustrating, and such a waste of time.

I had the same - applied and for a rejection email straightaway. Never mind, there will be more projects no doubt

I've just taken the F***r test twice and failed them both. So very annoying!

I'm qualified to work on Fr, but whenever I try to an error message always comes up and I can't get any further. It's been the same for ages and seems to be a problem for others too. 🤔

@seizethecuttlefish @YonderTweek I got that chocolate too, I must be a weirdo because I quite like it!

Does anyone know the rules about multiple projects on a*en? I'm on n*e and I'm worried to do anything else in case I get kicked off (I remember reading someone got kicked off one before). Thanks.

@Crowsandshivers I have been doing more than one project for nearly a year. Sometimes, like now, more than 3. No-one has ever hinted that it is wrong and I have never seen it in any guidelines.

@Crowsandshivers you can be on many appen projects at the same time, I’m on about 5. It’s very rare that there’s a restriction and if so it would be flagged when you apply.
The issue is if you are also doing the equivalent project to N**e over on Lionbridge or another competitor company, then it can be a problem

Thanks both. I think I remember reading on one of these threads about not being able to do two of a specific sort but it was a while ago and I've re-read guidelines and can't see anything.

Can anyone help me out with the job description for tax returns please? I mostly work on A**en but I tend to do whatever comes up really so I'm not sure 🤔

@mancbee, can you get away with "freelancer"?

Thanks @ruralwanderer I've gone with freelancer. I think that covers it but I wasn't sure if there was a specific title for this type of work 🤷🏼‍♀️

I think people have used "Search Engine Management" or "Social Media Moderation" before if they're only doing one particular project or working for one particular company, but if you're dipping into a bit of everything, Freelancer is probably about as specific as you need to get (caveat, I haven't completed a self assessment form yet as I've not been registered self employed long enough).
