Title: Can Not Make My 5 Cents Part II
Post by: bostonphil on March 28, 2020, 09:56:54 am
This is frustrating and discouraging.

I was unable to make my 5 cents for two or three days. Then I got enough searches on my video page to make my 5 cents for two days. That dried up but I was able to do a Peanut Lab survey to make my 5 cents plus yesterday or the day before.

But once again, nothing. Thus far, I have not been able to make my 5 cents so that I will be able to do PTC tomorrow. I will keep trying.

I feel your frustration.  I've struggled the last week, myself.  But, I've managed to find "my kind of task"!!!  It lets you change your answer, if you write in something they won't accept.  You can keep trying until your answer is accepted.

I wish I could do tasks. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, they won't accept my registration--even though I registered successfully last year--and it's against TOS to register more than once. Oh well, my consolation prize is the DQs from the FC surveys (Samplicious are great for that), even though they won't count toward PTC.

I just made myself a liar. I just tried signing into Figure8 one more time and lo and behold the login worked. And I was able to do the one task that was available to me. Well, one penny is better than nothing. :)

Update: Okay, I finally know why these aren't available for me.... I live in California and they recently passed that silly bill that makes gig workers supposed employees. So gig/task companies pretty much dropped all of us here in Cali. I lost many of my transcription work because of that bill. I wish I could meet that woman in person and tell her how much money she's lost me so far.

Okay, back to searching for pennies.

I've been having a lot of trouble as well. Not as many "videos" available has certainly cause myself troubles.

And just in the nick of time I scored a Peanut Labs survey. And, I just found out that I could cancel my cash out (most of my earnings are under the 180 expiration limit), add what I earned to it and re-requested the cash out. That way I can just go to my other sites until Tap gets fixed. I'm glad I could do that. It takes the stress off a bit.

I'm in the same boat.  This really stinks.

As of right now I am sitting on one penny towards the nickel I'll need for PTC tonight.  I say tonight because I'll lose the PTC bonus if I fail to do it before 2:00am CT.  I am hoping that the "search" videos will show up for me "live" around midnight again.  They did last night, but that window of opportunity closes for me once I get credited for 5 of these offers.

              Same here.  I have 0 of the 5 cents, with a few FC DQ'd   I got 11 cents from Tap but it didn't credit on my account.  I may try a couple more FC surveys before I give up.

I barely made my 5 cents and will barely be able to cashout this month with about $25.50.... normally I have 28 or more.... this will be the first time I won't be able to cashout if I don't get 25 cents before the end of the month which is getting really hard to do... I hope things get better soon...I'm wondering if things are this way because more people are staying home and doing FC

Heads up!  I found one "search" video in my video list around 11:30pm CT.  I scrambled to complete it and received the credit.  So, since the same video was still there after refreshing the page, I tried it again.  It said the offer was not available at the moment.  "Please try again later."  Well, I did (and "later" was only about 5 or so minutes later).  It worked.  And worked.  And kept working.  The same "Explore Today!" was crediting me the penny so I got the much-needed 5¢.  Then I waited a few minutes, tried it once more and got the message that it was not available, etc.

My point is do not be put off by that message we've all seen.  I used to think the search offer was one-and-done.  It looks like FC is rationing the 5¢ we need daily to complete PTC.  Good luck!  :clover:

I agree but I think it's due to everyone staying home and doing FC

Well, I ended up getting one search that allowed me to do it 5 different times late yesterday. So, I made the 5 cents for today and did today's PTC. But I can not earn anything towards tomorrow's PTC, thus far. Like yesterday, I will keep checking.

One of these days, someone will post that TAP is paying again and or we will notice that our account went way up. We will check and find out that we got paid for all the TAPs we did without credit.

I hope you are right - TAP was missing this morning but it is back now but still not crediting.

I have had some luck getting a Peanut Labs survey to complete. I was able to do today's PTC and now looking to earn 5 cents to do tomorrow's PTC.

I've gotten a lot of DQ's today but none of them count towards PTC ....... So I was able to watch hyprMX 7 times today :)

I got a .75 FC survey this morning, I was surprised.  :o   So I was able to do my PTC (I missed the previous 2 days).  Now off to find at least .05 for tomorrows PTC.  :D

I haven't been able to do PTC for days. No luck with videos on my end. On someday last week, I miraculously completed two surveys which allowed me to earn my 5 cents. But other than that, I've had no luck with anything else...

I am sitting on 4¢ toward PTC right now.  This is torturing me to no end.  No way left to get that one penny. :BangHead:

Please FC and Tap, will you all please fix the payment issues.  I get PTC today, but not tomorrow unless things change.

The NBA quiz popped up on my videos list. It used to be there daily, but then disappeared. Today it came back so I did it. It's worth 4 cents so I did that and Top Coupons and it helped me get my 5 cents for PTC. Hope more of the quizzes come back.

FINALLY got .05 and did the PTC today.  Its really discouraging to see my balance at .26 after cashing out in March.  Hoping things get better soon.

When nothing on the site works yes it is difficult to even make the 5 cents so you can make a grand total of 22 cents for the day.  The 5 cents, 15 for ptc and the 2 cents for email.  This site is on it's way out. Don't be surprised when you get a notice THIS site is closing.

So am I.  I've tried "Opinion" Surveys and thought I wouldn't be DQ'd from them because they're asking for my opinion. Yeah, right! Why would anyone be dq'd from an opinion?
