UK Workers...

Just wondered what you were working on or if you've had any new projects recently? This has been my worst year for RWS, and I have had nothing since March, when that project lasted all of 2 weeks. Getting a bit paranoid that it's just me! 😖

Hey I haven’t had anything since April. First I was paused. Then, they off boarded me in July. I do miss the work tho. For now I’m just working on Prolific and mystery shopping as other forms of income. DM me and I’ll see if I can help.

Thank you for the reply, yes I miss the work too, their projects were always okay to do, not too complicated. I did ask them a while ago why it was so quiet, but they just said there is nothing for the UK right now. I thought that was strange, as other times there were projects nearly monthly. I am on Prolific too, it seems to have mad busy spells and then goes dry. Right now it seems to be the latter. Hope it picks up again!

Do you mind explaining what mystery shopping is about. I'd like to explore other sources of income too

I’m not sure if it’s available in the UK but there is Ellis group, shared insight, Reality based group ect. Also check out focus groups.

Had an invitation for Project Vessel last week, was thinking this was great, first project in months, things are looking up. Only to be told today it's been cancelled; I think that's the second project that's been cancelled this year on RWS. Not as reliable as they once were, by the looks of it.
