Not the first time but they always seem to reject after I've spent 20-30 mins doing a video ai interview. Have blocked them this time round

Slow ApprovalBroken Completion Code

At first my submission was returned, and the study did require you to make a new Google account easily leaking your phone number, however I handled the phone verification on another screen while screen recording. I contacted them and told them I had a recording of the task and completed it in full shortly after the return and just today it was approved.

Edit: After contacting Prolific support, my submission has now been approved. This has not put me off taking Parnassus studies because as I mentioned before, I have taken many and never had an issue. I also often take their studies knowing I won't be eligible just to get the quick screenout pay. Completed the study but then it didn't re-direct back to Prolific with a completion code. So I submitted with "no code." The next morning my study had been returned. This is Prolific who have done this since Parnassus is a Prolific partner. Have submitted a ticket to Prolific support as I should be paid for this. Study was completed in full, only issue was at the end on getting the completion code. This happened with a number of users this day (the day Prolific went down due to the mass of AI studies). I have done many studies with Parnassus before with no issues but this is a huge flag and Prolific needs to address it and pay those of us affected.

Auto rejection after giving 45 minutes of interview time. Took my data and ran. Unresponsive. Seems like a scam. Also frequently advertises much shorter survey time than what it actually takes.

If I could rate a minus 5 star - I would ... Shortly after completing the study - Help shape the Omaze app , the study got rejected within seconds - raised a rejection dispute with the prolific support team and rejection was upheld ๐Ÿ˜

First thing they ask you to do is screen record yourself creating a new gmail account, exposing your phone number etc for verification.

Screened Out

It just happened again!!! I was screened out after getting through a series of questions. I was prompted to start the study after an attention check, but the next screen said that I wasn't what the study was searching for. Screened out for .36. But at least this time it didn't take a 1000 years before I screened out.

Screened Out
UnderpaysIn Study Screening

I think I'm gonna start taking a break from Parnassus? I've done several and lately the pay is going down and it appears they are farming for data without having to pay a fair reward that matches the input. I was just screened out of a study after five minutes of answering study questions regarding my search habits. Just when it said I was passed the screening I was then told to open two incognito windows for the next portion of the study. Upon doing this and submitting for the next step this when I was screened out??? .84 for five minutes. This is happening far too often with them. The rates used to be really good and automatically approved.
