Nope, seems that they must be between batches or something.  Could be they're loading up a new batch to be entered and will release it in a week or so.  Maybe if the task is trying to validate new software, their team might be making updates based on the results of the last group we entered, and when the updates are ready for more testing, we'll see it back.

I've worked similar transcription tasks on Amazon Turk, and they are like the surveys and Crowdflower tasks - you get the occasional dry spell, but they eventually come back.

I also have not been able to get any work for several days.  Today I tried this morning and this afternoon.  The last time I tried it pulled up the other tasks.

I'm curious about the business card transactions, but have not tried them.  How does it pay? ???

I have not had any luck with the Business Transcription. I really want to do this task but now it says there is no more work available. I hope there's more work coming soon for this task.

I only had some during the first week it was open.  Today the link for them is gone all together from my listings..so this might be all completed.

First thing I did after the daily e-mail was check the tasks and noticed the link for the business cards is gone from my task page, too.  I'm so disappointed. I really enjoyed doing them. I don't know what I'll do now. I never seem to qualify for surveys and tasks aren't nice to me. If I qualify for a survey, it's usually one that doesn't credit me and if I do tasks, it usually times out or doesn't work at all for me.  I earned a whole $1.20 last week. So far this week, I earned around $.09. Not happy lately. Can't even get enough to do the PTC because half the videos won't work.   :'(

Hi all,

Just a quick note to let you know that Business Card Transcription tasks are no longer available.  We're working with the task provider on retooling their offering and hope to have an even better opportunity in the coming year.  Thanks to everyone who participated!

I so hope so. I just tried to do 7 surveys and got the dreaded "sorry, blah, blah, blah" on 6 of them that didn't even ask a single demographic questions and got credit for 2 of them. So, guess I can say I earned $.11 so far this week. This is sad.  :'(

Guess I'm beginning to have a negative attitude. I just checked my earnings again and have gotten credit for 6 $.01 FC non-qualified surveys.

I really liked the business transcription cards when I had chance to do them. They are a little time consuming but worth it once you get the hang of it.

I think they may be gone for good.  When I clicked on "Daily Tasks" today, the tab for the Business Cards is gone.

There's a post on the FusionCash thread about this from Admin. This task is no longer being offered.

I know.  I so agree with you all.  This one truly was a sad loss, but I guess we will just have to wait to see what the new offering will be.  I know FC will come back at us with something great!
