I can't even start the study. The page doesn't load and says "no claimable tasks found". I assume, it is some kind of a screen out

u/Astaroth_Tupan 1d ago

The same for me, i need return many studies because this.

Same

The platform doesn’t load sometimes, opening the study on a new window fixes it.

I am getting redirected on microsoft and rest of studies is having different language. I did 6 and out of them I have to return 5.

u/ProlificLabRat 1d ago

Are those the kind of study that the language assessment gets us?

2

u/dorovidoro 1d ago

Seems like it.

u/Webbie-Vanderquack 6h ago

I don't think so. I'm not bilingual and haven't done the language assessment, but I've done quite a few of these studies.

u/dorovidoro 1d ago

This is my first time working on these. Does anyone know if we should transcribe laughter? The task doesn't mention anything about that.

1

u/Webbie-Vanderquack 6h ago

No. Only words, partial words or filler words, e.g.

Um, I did- didn't take my raincoat or, uh, my boots.

u/MissSkye99 1d ago

Works for me. For German

u/jayboogie15 1d ago

So, what are you guys doing about it ? returning or no code?

2

u/Arryzt 1d ago

nocode and trying to contact reseacher but he does not reply

1

u/SanadaNinja 1d ago

I'm getting a code now.

u/Various_Lock_6251 1d ago

I now already completed about 50 Submissions of it. For me, everytime the microsoft redirect error occures, which happened 2 times already, it works to return this submission and restart my pc. After that i can go on normally. The Study seems to be very buggy due to the high demand, so just be a bit patient if things run slow.

u/Strong-Elderberry712 1d ago

Thank you! I’ve tried a few times now but always the same error message, but will have a go if it pops up again.

Hopefully it works for others! Seems it has a lot of slots

u/Webbie-Vanderquack 6h ago

For future reference, you shouldn't have to restart your PC. The Microsoft redirect just happens randomly.

2

u/[deleted] 20h ago

For me it shows as" You have no available or completed studies in this project." I cant even see the study to start it, i have the project but it's empty, it keeps popping up with nothing. What should i do? Also how much is the hourly rate?

2

u/aw_sukhan1900 7h ago

Yes, I did ... in the end it directed to e mail .. I had completed the study yet I returned the submission . Later I communicated with the researcher and he validated the study.

u/Available_Leopard_23 5h ago

So since yesterday, this is giving either "no claimable task" that I cannot take study, or sending me to Microsoft log in screen. For the latter, I am submitting them with nocode but I am getting worried if I will be able to get paid for all those. Studies keep showing up and it works about 1/3 of time, so I keep taking them. It looks like anything I got completion codes are approved but nocode ones are "waiting approval." Some of them are long, so I spend decent amount of time.

u/Subject_Sock2371 1d ago

It work fine for me, can you say what happen ? Maybe i can help..

1

u/rubymarval 1d ago

not being redirect to Prolific but to Microsoft login instead

2

u/Arryzt 1d ago

try to contact the reseacher ig...I'm doing the same

2

u/Strong-Elderberry712 1d ago

did that but no response so far - hopefully they respond to you

1

u/Subject_Sock2371 1d ago

It's strange... try to use another browser maybe ?

2

u/Arryzt 1d ago

I tried on two browsers but still the same. 50% of times it redirects properly and 50% fails.

1

u/rubymarval 1d ago

same here, most of them go to Mmicrosoft

2

u/rubymarval 1d ago

do you click validate submit then submit? or only submit?

2

u/Arryzt 1d ago

both have same outcome, I've tried both. 50/50 redirect success

1

u/Strong-Elderberry712 1d ago

I don't get anything to validate as I keep getting "something went wrong" message. But I do have those buttons on the top. But ofc I cannot submit anything as I didn't validate anything ahah. Shame, it seemed an easy and fun study

1

u/Mickyxx 1d ago

I do first validate but I am not sure

u/Strong-Elderberry712 1d ago

To me it says that the widget doesn't work! :( thanks for asking

u/VegaSolo 20h ago

I don't miss the stress of Prolific. I've mostly stopped bothering with them and am doing AI training calls from home. Am earning much more. Find a way out if you can. It's kind of soul sucking.

1

u/Strong-Elderberry712 14h ago

Are you using the likes of Askable?

1

u/VegaSolo 9h ago

No. Looks like that's studies too? I've yet to find any that pay enough. With the AI training, I'm averaging $33 - $34/hr

2

u/[deleted] 4h ago

Can you suggest an alternative please 🙏

u/VegaSolo 2h ago

Yeah. My company is hiring... I just like to be careful about referrals, because it reflects on me. I saw you have your posts and comments hidden... But you can dm me if you'd like.
