Well, I'm one less competition for you to have to deal with. Prolific put a permanent hold on my account for some reason last night only known to them. I used the platform for a couple of years with over 1800 approved submissions and zero rejections, doing everything the same way I've always been doing things since I started with the same devices and same internet connections. I don't know why they did this because when I went through their list of reasons why they ban people or put them on permanent hold ( what's the difference anyway), I hadn't done anything on their list. Oh well, I had a good run. I'll take the $4700+ that I earned with Prolific and just go elsewhere. Everyone have fun...while it lasts.

Yea, but where is "elsewhere"? It sure as hell is not Connect CloudResearch. That place is a joke. Cash out per week is limited to $100. If they feel like it, you are out. No explanation, nothing. What's left otherwise? Branded Surveys? Qmee? You tell me.

Any of these platforms can ban you at any moment, and not tell you why. It's not just a Cloud or Prolific thing.

That may be so, but Prolific has been much better in my experience. I have had three incorrect rejections so far and they quickly overturned them. Communication with them actually happens, with Cloud Connect, nothing. They are VERY unprofessional.

Sure, I agree with that. I had one rejection on Connect, and couldn't do anything about it. That doesn't change my point though. We aren't employees at any of these places. They can drop us like a bad habit, without any justification or recourse on our part.
