    Newbie here, I was curious how long it takes on average for surveys to pay? I have almost 30 HITs from yesterday still pending.

    I did this one yesterday, and it was approved and paid within an hour. Weird.

    Sorry, should have clarified I wasn't talking about the Beebe HIT. I had posted another HIT under that one with bad TO.

    Hi there,
    I'm relatively new too. I have had surveys take up to a week to pay. A day or so isn't that long. After 30 days anything pending is automatically approved from what I understand.

    Oh. I'm still in the process of caffeinating myself this morning so I'm a bit slow on the uptake at this moment ;)

    Payers vary, I've had some pay out within the hour, others have sat for 30 days then auto pay. If you're new, work on getting your numbers up. Once you hit 100 more options will open up, then more at 500, 1000, etc. It takes time but you'll get there eventually. :)

    I hear ya. Use the time to just get your numbers up and get qualifications. If you can do transcription, casting words usually has some easy transcription hits up. They give you plenty of time. I did a lot of them in my first couple weeks. The good news is, after 10 days they release your money immediately.

    Is anyone else having problems with CrowdFlower surveys? Every time I accept the hit it reloads the page and it says no work to be done.

    Title: (Volunteer) Identify patterns of lines in an image
    Requester: UDiscoverIt [A04050801SMHZLQ78O7XH] (TO)
    Description: Please identify the most prominent pattern of vertical lines/blobs in an image, and select which lines are part of the pattern. The tutorial/qualification is expected to take around 20 minutes, and HITs are expected to take around a minute each.
    Reward: $0.00
    Qualifications: udiscoverit_qual_1 is not less than 93, HIT approval rate (%) is not less than 95
    Link: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=20NENIKX6V2UK5HDO1Y4R79OSWD24U

    One of the things I do, every single day, is dig around for new qualifications. This HIT is an example of what you can find in the treasure trove.

    That means you've already completed the survey in the past.

    I've never been able to do this one. I think I attempted one like it last week and it wanted my name, DOB, etc....which I'm not giving out.

    This has been up for a while, but it's an easy $1 for around 20 minutes. You need a webcam though, it paid within 15 minutes.

    I'm noticing that plenty of these Crowdflower surveys violate the TOS lately.
