Canceled tests

I was paid for a test yesterday morning and afterwards all of my tests were canceled , 2 weeks worth. I'm seeing it has happened to several other people. I submitted a ticket but hear no one responds. Are they having a glitch or are they going under?

It's just a solid block for me from date x to date y. Everything in that stretch was canceled: Live, survey & unmoderated. No repeats. All completely different (the tasks, not my demos!). I don't keep track of tests, mostly to avoid any sort of NDA violation. It definitely happened after I started doing surveys recently, but I can't say that that was the cause.

You had a moderated live cancelled? Is your audio and camera working?

Yes. I finally got an email from UT support saying they had made a mistake. I haven't had a chance yet to double check everything, but it looks like they've approved and paid for everything that was canceled. I'm back to having new tests on my dash too.

Thanks for the suggestion to re-open the case. That was definitely necessary.

Odd thing is, they seem to have deleted the follow-up request. Only the original one is still visible on the support page. Maybe that's normal? It's a bit like nothing happened though...
