Missing or failed delivery of study completion codes

Participants are frequently encountering technical issues at the end of studies, where completion codes fail to appear or the redirect back to Prolific does not work. This leads to anxiety over potential rejections and requires manual submission of codes found in URLs or 'Nocode' submissions.
