Hipmunk crediting or not?
« on: July 06, 2016, 01:59:07 pm »
I don't know if anyone else has trouble but when i am logged in to my account on a another computer Hipmunk seems to credit me all the time. When i am on my home computer it dont. Has anyone ever tried that?

Hipmunk is one of those hit or miss things.  Has never been consistent for me, so now I only try it if I am bored or in need of $ to make the PTC amount.  HyprMx seem to be the only offer that credits all of the time.  Not sure why, but it is what it is.

It credits sometimes and then other times it does not. It is a tossup. It is usually the one for some wheres around 35 cents that credits me and the one for 4 cents never does.

Hipmunk used to be very reliable. Lately it has been hit or miss. I have used the same browser and same computer and I always clear my cache prior to doing this offer. I am out of ideas.

Hipmunk has actually been the first thing that has consistently credits for me besides ptc and daily e-mail. A couple of times I have had to do it twice.  I use Firefox, hadn't tried other browsers.  But I do know clearing the browsers before is critical (in FireFox you can keep your login info and clear everything else so you don't have to look up passwords constantly).

I have actually been credited a few times, but not this week, I have a 0.04 cents on videos that is not crediting and the .35 cents is not crediting either.  This offer is one of those that is not relayable

I have received credit every day for it. Make sure you clean out your cookies before you do it. It usually credits within 15-20 minutes, so if I don't see the credit I start over and it credits.

I clean everything and try different browsers and I still do not get credit.  I dont waste my time on it.

Hipmunk is one of my steady earners, and it's fun checking hotels in far away places!

It's been said, but bears repeating, MAKE SURE you clear your cache/cookies BEFORE logging in to FC! I use Chrome for Hipmunk (and little else, honestly) as it seems to work well for me.

I think you guys need to leave the hotel search windows open for longer time.
I usually leave them open for about 10 minutes.

This offer is crediting for me everyday.

I tried it like you suggested and got credit. I'm going to try again tomorrow to see if it credits again. Usually when I attempt this offer, it hasn't been consistent. Hopefully it will be from now on.

Thank you for the great tip.  I have always had good success with Hipmunk over the past few months.  Lately, however, like other members it's been a hit or miss. 

It used to be that I didn't have to leave the page opened that long.  Today after one failed attempt I tried it again.  This time, as you suggested, I left the tab opened longer while I took care of household chores. 

When I refreshed the page and checked my account, there it was: Hopmunk Hotel Search approved $0.35.   :thumbsup:

Thanks again.  :)
