Title: Having problems making my 5 cents
Post by: bostonphil on September 06, 2016, 10:42:06 am
I have been unable to make even one cent towards my five cents yet.  Yesterday was challenging but I ended up doing well. However, I have tried the few slide shows available to me and all that I have tried got quirky at the very end causing me to not get any credit.

I have read posts from other members who have been having problems making their five cents.

I had problems with all the videos today.
Hipmunk Hotel credited
Tried fushion cash survey.  Thought i'd try a few and get a penny.  Then I didnt get the penny.
Tried another survey and actually qualified.  Electronics survey credited me with $1.90.  Blew me away.

Since the HyprMx and "Watch this Video" videos weren't showing up today - and they are my go-to for the 5 cent requirement, I actually tried the "Explore Jobs" (which I usually avoid).  You don't actually have to complete anything, just type in the job title and then click a link... takes about 10-15 minutes to credit. 

        Explore Jobs: Grocery Jobs  [$0.03]
   Explore Jobs: Woodworking Jobs  [$0.03]
   Explore Jobs  [$0.04]
   Explore Jobs  [$0.04]

The other go-to I use if the videos aren't working is Hopster coupons.  I can usually get 6 cents out of those if I really need the cents.

It has been tuff at times the last few days. The best time is too look for videos at night.

Yes, Fusion, it would be nice if somehow you got the videos that are posted fixed or else get some new ones that work!  This is getting old! Several days of spending way too much time trying to get videos to credit is maddening.

I always do tasks when I'm having issues qualifying for at least one survey. There are at least some fairly easy ones available that don't take too much effort and have decent pay

If you do tasks I usually do 3/4 market research for 2 cents each. Very simple tasks to do

I was barely able to make my 5¢ today.The videos I watch most often are Watch This Video and HyprMX.Watch This Video wasn't showing up on my page.The first two times I tried HyprMX,it gave me a 7+ minute video that I didn't watch either time.I then did a medical quiz and a 15 page slideshow.I then went back to HyprMX and they gave me enough 10 page Great Content videos to finish up.

Tell me about it!  I am thankful for this form thread  because kjstrukel's post might be worth considering.

Thanks for the tip about the jobs.  I have been avoiding them, but I may try them again.  It does seem more difficult lately to make cash.

All week, well since late last week, I've only been able to get my .02¢ email credit Hipmunk and my PTC credits. Other than that, I've had one survey DQ  bonus.

The "jobs" are really hit-and-miss offers for me. I tried several yesterday to no avail.

Well, soon after posting my discussion, I was able to do a 30 cents survey and later that night, I did got the HYPRMX survey back and some of those that have a picture of a hand and gas pump. I ended up making more than my required 5 cents.  :)

It has since gotten easier. I find that if not many videos are offered in the morning, they appear later in the day, especially at night.

Yesterday, I couldn't get anything in the morning. Had more luck in the afternoon. Today, I've had plenty. At 7 minutes each though, I've had to call it quits for the day.

The 7 cent videos are how I have made my 5 cents today. I had to spread it out all morning and into the afternoon.  It is ok if you are just waking up or taking a break from being very busy.

I have noticed that other videos appear in the evening and night.

I would be struggling these days if I was relying on the videos for the 5 cents,  thankfully Hipmunk is still around and if I can get an extra 6-10 cents I might be able to cashout before the end of the month.  I don't fool with tasks anymore since they required access to your Facebook account and I am not a desired demographic for surveys,  so there are not many options.

Things have improved since I first posted this discussion.  I have been able to make my 5 cents in the morning but it has been time consuming videos. I do make some additional pennies as the day goes on.

That happened to me over the weekend. No surveys and the only videos were 4c ones that require posting to Facebook. Now I'm doing the HYPRMX ones that take like 5 minutes each to complete.

I've been doing the quizzes that you have to share your results on social media.  I avoided them at first, but then I figured out you can just email the results to a couple friends. That counts as "Sharing"

I have been very lucky getting the half cent videos to make my 5 cents when worse came to worse. I was having problems with the HYPRMX not working which really was a shock since that was my safety to collect my 5 cents.
