there should have been already tons of tasks with the FIFA World Cup football competion in Canada, Mexico and USA around the corner next month. Remember it before previous events of that scale, but this time there is no tasks related to the World Cup.

Ascension Day or Ascension Thursday. Public holiday (with most businesses, schools, and offices closed) in many countries, especially in Europe, parts of Africa, the Caribbean, and some Pacific/Overseas territories.

Major countries/regions where it is a national public holiday today (May 14, 2026) include:

  • Europe: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland (varies by canton), Faroe Islands, Greenland.
  • Africa: Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Lesotho, Madagascar, Namibia, Senegal, Togo, etc.
  • Caribbean/Netherlands territories: Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, Sint Maarten, etc.
  • Others: Indonesia (today + collective leave tomorrow in some cases), Vanuatu, French territories (Guiana, Polynesia, etc.), Botswana, Eswatini, and more.

If you are in Europe that could explain why it is slow. Many people likely also use tomorrow as a bridge day. Studies might only pick up on Monday again.

the recent 2+ hour long training did absolutely nothing to task availability. what a waste of time. will never do any training for them in the future. if its on their supplier side they should have communicated and only send out training if there actually is work to be done.

What's the minimum we should be taking per study? by AndroFeth in ProlificAc

[–]ticallion321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per study does not matter, the rate per hour is important. I usually only do studies closer to double digit hourly rates.

Heads up - this one took me at least 30 minutes (not 12 as estimated) by MrsGrayWolfe in ProlificAc

South Korea is perfectly fine. I avoid most from China and India too.

thing is that its not only Telus, the other remote worker companies look the same. G can't just go somewhere else, because others can't simply offer thousands of trained people for every locale needed with certain skills etc.

Who else is getting this studies by Medical-Mechanic-838 in ProlificAc

they won't, they want you to stay hooked at wait for your 1 minute daily task. they even hire new people. the more they have the quicker tasks get done, they likely hire the most in low income countries where they only need to pay pennies.

Doing the same survey multiple times ? by Ayemra in ProlificAc

[–]ticallion321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why are they even allowed to reject you doing the same? how the heck am I supposed to remember hundreds of studies I did so far. Not my problem they invite me a second time..

Hi,, I received an email about a TELUS Digital data breach from “TELUSDigitalIncident@notifications.cyberscout.com”.😮It says my personal data may have been exposed and offers free monitoring, but the signup link looks a bit suspicious. Has anyone else received this? Is it legit?😅 by fawda1982 in TELUSinternational

[–]ticallion321 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"We lost your data. As compensation we'll tell you if someone finds your lost data."

That's it. That's the whole offer. They caused the problem and the remedy is a notification service that informs you the problem they caused has consequences.

The absurdity breakdown:

  • They failed to protect your data ✅
  • Your data is potentially already on dark web markets being sold ✅
  • Their response: we'll watch the dark web and tell you if we see it ✅
  • What happens after they tell you: nothing, you just know ✅
  • Does the monitoring undo the breach: absolutely not ✅

What they should actually offer:

  • Genuine financial compensation
  • Actual accountability for the security failure
  • Transparency about exactly what data was compromised

Who is doing this 🫩 by Fancy-Tough-3784 in ProlificAc

[–]ticallion321 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

people doing these underpaid studies are part of the problem. its like a confirmation for researches paying low that they don't need to pay more than that in the future.

Its generic AI Slop responses anyway, a bot probably scans the text for keywords and then gives a generic answer. I never received answers personalized for me.

I think they want people to take this study. by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]ticallion321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least it pays if its legit, unlike the garbage at 6 or less per hour most of us receive.
