01/15 - Windy Wednesday!

actually, a new change. In our payment system (or earnings part), it used to say, "under status" bar, approved, processing, or pending.

now instead of saying "approved", it says "Funds Sent".

 

Legal terms are important btw.

They were saying "Your transfer has completed. You can view your Amazon Payments balance .... " and the status was "completed". It was my money, I earned it, and I made it to transfer to my bank account.

Now it says, "Your transfer request has been sent to your bank account. " and the status is "Funds Sent". I am getting funded by Amazon? Tax Exempt?

So many questions!!!

Thank you, great advice and it worked! Good to know for future reference.

 

Mine says "We have processed your request to transfer your MTurk funds to your bank account."

 

This. I was able to continue just with F11 full screen; browser zoom was going to be my next option.

 

Apologies if this has been asked before today (can't scroll through 50 pages of this thread), but has anyone done the David Vachon (RQ#: AYF4XSIP1WJNO) HIT? The top reviews for underpaid returns talk about the RQ giving rejections at a rate of about 15%, but on both TurkerView and Turkopticon, there are no reviews mentioning rejections whatsoever? Am I missing something and the data is on another site I don't know about?

I'll try my hand at this HIT, but not if the RQ rejects at all.

 

They mean the approval rating on MTurk itself:

 

say Hi!, welcome first.

 

Hi!, welcome

 

@Tracy Wethington

I'd been saving this for the next time your attic snakes came up and forgot about it when it was the topic of conversation earlier. I'm just going to post it now since I'll likely forget again next time it comes up.

 

Well, weird how no reviews mention any of these past rejections. Hmm. That's a dilemma of a decision to make now.

Also, apologies for not saying hi myself! I thought that MTurk Forum (where I usually am) and this one merged, but apparently my post history is at 0 now here, haha. I've been around MTurk Forum since 2014. But hi all!

 

Welcome to the forum

 

@Girl of the north @purplepotato

Hi! Thanks for the welcome!

 

haha no problem, welcome to the site. Not associated w/ MTF in any way. We sprung up when MTurk Grind was sold off to someone who didn't even turk & they just kind of blew up the site before yet again selling it to some random Russian dude lol.

 

Lol I just realized I had that wrong. Oops. Sorry! Been turking all day on 4 hours of sleep. I blame that.

@Girl Polar Bear Hi! Thanks for the welcome!

this also happened if you went forward w/the process without adding a bank account
