i doubt i'd see anything like £7.90 an hour for it. that's 26-and-a-third questions answered in an hour. can't imagine i'd even be asked that many.

plus i earn about three times that if i actually go to work. hmm, i wonder if i can actually do it from work?

Yeah, the best you can really make is about £6 per hour. Pretty crap, although you can do it at home so there's no travel time to be factored in. You have to be diligent about skipping questions that aren't worth your time.

Literally had no idea a position like this existed.

Btw, the most I ever made in a month from it was about £100. This is partly because I have a billion other things to do in my life, but also because it becomes really, really boring after a while.

Some people do it as a full time job, but I couldn't.

If you did it a for a few hours a night after your current job it's a few extra pennies I suppose.

merry_miller

won't there only be a few hours a day where it's busy enough to earn £6 an hour ? Should imagine during day when everyone is at work it would be a bit dead.

When I first started that was correct, but in the last year or so it's really picked up and they seem to have more questions than people can answer. But you're right in saying that it's time sensitive. The best times to do it are weekends in te daytime, because you get a ton of people texting to find out the football scores which, naturally, are **** easy to answer.

Just looking at the application thing.

"Why would you be good at ending question marks?"

Im guessing they want more than "because i can use Google"?

my mum does it and my girlfriend works for one of their competitors.

mum can earn up to £15/hour on AQA in the busy times.
