I wonder if we'll be able to game checking account sign-up bonuses that require direct deposit with the change

 

Hopefully we get to at least pick what day of the week / month the withdrawal happens so people can work that into their own financial situation.

 

That would be nice, but I was thinking about that and assuming it isn't all done the same day they'll probably group the deposits by Mturk number or something. XXXX - XXXX Monday etc.

We have the opportunity to sign up this month but it's mandatory next month right? I really don't want to have any financial oopsies right around Christmas time.

You have a 20% chance of being picked for a bonus IF your responses are, in the opinion of the requester, above the median in quality. To me that says the 'bonus' mentioned is as likely to show up as the Easter Bunny.

I can confirm that this is what it said in the Email they sent me a few weeks back.

 

I just hope they don't introduce some weird lengthy approval process for this new thing, where you have to send them a blood sample and then wait two weeks to get approved and finally start receiving your money.

 

Thanks! I had forgotten all about it until I saw posts freaking about about it on Reddit.

 

That frightens me as a thought because an approval process means you can be not approved. The culling.

Especially since they added this in their email:
"we will discontinue the Amazon Payments disbursement option on January 15, 2020 in lieu of direct US bank account transfers for eligible MTurk Workers"

 

That to me means the multiple accounts and people that claim to be in the U.S. won't be approved

 

I read it as Mark Staas will not be approved
