Started on Friday and now happening again. Did they change something? Usually it goes right through - 2 minutes max? Anyone heard anything? A new proceedure now?? Thanks!
Nobody knows. In the past they've had some similar slow issues that were cleared up in a day or maybe longer, I'm not really sure. Might be a safe bet that this won't last, but we'll see. It's been the topic of fair amount of conversation in the daily threads, which is where 99.8% of the posts on this forum happen: http://mturkforum.com/showthread.ph...ur-Computer-Before-You-re-Sorry-Sunday!/page5
Who knows. They just changed it all of a sudden. Withdrawals to a bank already take 18-24 hours. Now a simple transfer from mturk to payments takes another 24 hrs? Terrible.
I just emailed them. I'll let everyone know when I get an answer. Asked if the payment system had changed or WHAT? LOL!
Rather than transfers from Turk to Payments taking a fixed 24 hours to complete, it seems that these transfers are being held and run as a batch. My Saturday transfer took 6 hours to complete. Last night’s took seven. But both completed shortly after 1AM Pacific Time.
I just hope they fix it. Sunday's transfer took 14 hours to complete at around 11 am. Monday's transfer took almost the same amount of time. I guess we have to change our transfer habits and plan ahead to withdraw. I used to transfer to Amazon Payments by 3 or 4 pm Sun-Thu. It was instantaneous, then transferred to my bank account and it was there the next day.
Well, my batch theory was discredited tonight: [quote=''mturk-noreply@amazon.com"] Your Tue, Aug 30, 2016 01:43 PM earnings transfer to Amazon Payments is complete Date: Tue, Aug 30, 2016 08:17 PM [/quote] So, 6 hours and change.
