02/25 - Solitary Saturday

Last time the message was on mTurk the date was moved to sometime in April. They said it will come back when they iron out the issues w/ it

 

that was one of the things I was gonna do before I logged off for today. One less thing for me to do I guess.

 

Thanks for the info!

 

good to know, thanks

I have been on the site for about 8 years, Masters. I did not sign it, thought it was odd being from the EU. I was going to wait until the last minute then sign it. The link is now gone though.

Amazon said the deadline to fill out the form was moved to April? Did they communicate this to you directly? I received an email from amazon Feb. 8th with a link to the form, stating I had to provide the info by the 28th of Feb, even though I'm in the US. The link on amazon is gone, true, but I still have the link in the email they sent me and was going to fill it out this weekend. I haven't received any communication from Amazon stating the link is no longer valid or that the deadline for filling it out is April, have you? If you know where I can verify this, could you provide a link? I'd really appreciate it.

 

Does the link in the email they sent you still work? The one in the email I got returns a "Sorry, we couldn’t find that page" message and other people have also said that the links they got emailed no longer work.

 

I haven't clicked on it yet because I didn't want to start the process until I was ready to complete it. But good to know it doesn't work. So I suppose I have nothing to worry about if it doesn't work for me, hopefully! I still would like to know for peace of mind that the information regarding the date being pushed to April is verifiable.

 

It seems that they disabled the link but didn't bother to follow up with the people they emailed. I saw someone else also say that they were contacted by Amazon and told that this requirement has been postponed. I was going to email them just to formally notify them that I've got no way to fill in the form, although I don't know if that's necessary.

 

good job on the bonus!

Caught a $15 HIT that took about 90 minutes but I also got a $7 bonus! The day was looking very bleak until about 5pm. Also caught 6 of those HITS from renaissance. Now I'm sitting at almost $37.
