  1. I heard about MTurk a few years ago and tried it for a short time. I liked it, but a major thing that put me off was because I'm in the UK, I can only receive payments from them via Amazon UK giftcard. I really would prefer cash. That's the main reason I stopped using it. I hope MTurk changes that in the future where I can opt to be paid via cash or giftcard. I'd really like that.

    Well done with your earnings. :-)

  2. Yes, that is real problem for UK workers, especially as you must pay for international shipping. Amazon does offer Indian workers a disbursement check, but all other countries outside of the US have to settle for gift cards and I can't understand it.

    Thanks for your feedback!

  3. Oh yes, Amazon UK giftcards aren't available, are they. I now remember that's what put me off all the more at the time. If they were available, then I'd consider it even though I prefer cash. It just doesn't seem worth it for me as it currently stands. I too don't understand why Amazon does that. It's not as if it's two separate companies.

    Ah well. Win some, lose some.
