    Was it from Mit something or other? If so then a bunch of us had problems. There's been lots of bad TO in the last few days.

    Don't feel bad. I was dumb enough to do TWO from them on the same day. I have sent 4 emails but haven't gotten any response. It really makes me mad when people don't respond to email!!

    Lots of people. MIT right?? Check out their TO. I emailed them yesterday and didn't hear anything. Lots of people have emailed them, no response. Really frustrating to waste 20 minutes on that.

    I was eligible and it took about me 15 minutes. It could probably be done in 10, I have my bird out with me and she is very playful and distracting

    I saw this Requester(Nana) had terrible TO but it looked like a decent batch so I looked a little further. Just one person rated this and gave it a terrible review. This is what was written as the review I tested with two jobs, It's been five days no approval.

    I'm wondering if it's a language thing or they are new. I think I read they are from Poland.

    Anyway, I can't link the batch but they are paying .35 per and there are over 900. Also, the requirements aren't bad, some locations are out and you have to have over 85% approval.

    Maybe somebody with more experience than me can check it out and see if they look worth the time/effort.

    I did a few the other day. Took about four to five minutes. They are on 5 day auto approval.

    She has had these up twice before in the past week or so but with much smaller batches. They didn't move at all so I was surprised when I saw such a large batch posted. Once my first few ge approved, I might do more but I am not risking it.
