12/15 - Swaying Sunday!

Good morning?

 

But we can still use the old system until January 15th correct?

 

probably, maybe, hopefully?

 

Amazon's too busy dealing with the rash of fulfillment center injuries, so it's understandable.

 

This is ridiculous! I mean come on mturk, if it ain't broke...!!!

 

Good Morning!

 

Amazon loves "improving" things for us. It makes them happy to thoroughly duck up the system for the workers.

Saw this on reddit...

"I've been doing this just under a month and when I joined I never had the option of daily withdrawals. So I was super confused about what everyone was talking about until I did some reading. Lol. But yeah I've only ever had the option of three, seven, fourteen, thirty, and sixty days."

 

Hmmm. That's definitely an interesting development. Maybe it did roll out but tenured workers aren't seeing it?

 

i think the email did say something about new accounts being under that system. follow-up emails seemed to indicate that tenured workers will have more options. either way, i'm less concerned about staggered withdrawals as i am the implementation.

mturk things usually be like:

 

And like:

 

I'm not touching it until after Christmas. I've got bills at the end of the month to pay and shopping to finish. Don't want to take any chances.

 

I don't blame you. I'm not touching it until January 10th. I would wait until the 15th but I don't trust Mturk to not fuck it up when I start setting it up.

 

This feels like the wrong strategy after watching how the Amazon Pay glitch went down.

I'm spamming withdraw every 100ms until the end of time.

 

Lol I meant not adding my bank for the direct deposit. Trust me I get my money out of turk and payments as soon as I can.

 

You go ahead and let us know how the new payment system works. It is an honorable sacrifice.
