Title: Paid survey about sex work and technology
Post by: Arbeitstudie on 08 February 2019, 03:20:23 pm: Hi everyone!

We're a research team at the University of Zurich and the Max Planck Institute in Germany. We're conducting an anonymous, paid survey about how folks in the sex industry use the internet in their daily and work lives. We're hoping the study helps us develop tech that makes your lives better :)

The survey takes about 10 minutes and we can pay 10 Pounds / 10 Euro / 12 CHF / 12 USD through Amazon giftcards or paypal for your time. Anyone who considers themselves in the sex industry is welcome to fill it out, regardless of gender, nationality, etc.

Link is here: http://go.umd.edu/arbeitstudie-survey

At the end, we'll ask you some questions about how we can pay you, but those won't be linked to your answers.

I'm happy to answer any questions!

Got to the end and there were options to receive payment by amazon dot com voucher or paypal. No amazon uk voucher. I'm not giving my personal email for paypal and amazon dot com voucher is a bit useless to me.

I did exactly the same, and I never got the '10 pounds' option either.

Yes, I'm sorry there's a bit of a delay! We process the payments manually. But you will definitely hear from us within a day or two at the most.

Post by: LilMissChaos on 21 February 2019, 01:39:41 pm: I realise that you are very probably inundated /,,busy but I completed the survey/study 3 or 4 days ago & have not received my Amazon voucher ...

I cannot PM you with the details & obviously do not want to cite on a public forum but I gave my personal email address (which includes my real name) for the voucher to be sent

I'm wondering if I have incorrectly input the email add. at the end of the survey - v possible if I was tired & not concentrating properly (as is often the case these days ??? !)

Is there a way I can contact you directly with those details so you could check if there is a record of my survey? It's also quite possible that my entry has somehow been lost 'in the ether' methinks as I have a patchy/poor WiFi signal where I live... If not I'm quite happy to do it again & resubmit - I just didn't want to do that without checking first

Apologies if I've overlooked anything here- my brain is regularly frazzled...

Many thanks in advance
