My balance reduced significantly

[yumagirl72]

I have not had a chance to be active on this site in the last couple of months due to some life circumstances.  I am aware that after a certain number of days (120 if memory serves?) offers that you have earned will start to expire if they have not been cashed out. This morning I had a balance of $11.38 and had worked on answering several surveys for (at least) 15 minutes - most I did not qualify for. When all of a sudden, my balance dropped dramatically to $4.86....so I checked my account and noticed I have a few more offers due to expire soon (within a week to 16 days) but did not see anything as soon as NOW? So my question is, how come I was not alerted as soon as I logged on? Is there a way that a user can be alerted that offers are due to expire and money earned will be lost? Its disappointing to have taken so long to actually earn the tiny award (per survey) and then lose it because of not being able to achieve the $25 minimum in order to cash out? I do not qualify for very many surveys and so when I finally do complete one and earn that small reward, it takes me quite awhile to achieve that $25 mark. I am due to lose more of my balance within the next 2 weeks so no matter how hard I grind at this, the odds are stacked. What can be done? Where's the incentive?

Mine dropped to 90 cents!!!!!!!  Im beyond annoyed.  I don't qualify for anything.  About to tell this site to shove it.  I cant even get enough videos or money to get the 5c to get the daily 15 cents!  Not worth my time at all!  I lost 20 some dollars.....   Let me know if they ever give you advice.... I didn't even know there was a time frame!

It's 180 days before your $$ start expiring. We all went through it at one time. I lost $8 after a serious surgery 5 years ago. I was furious but I'm still here. Another site I was on at the same time took ALL my money when I was incapacitated. I was ready to cash out the $50 (the first time rule) on that site before I wound up in the hospital. No amount of arguing or proving I couldn't be there helped. So, since they had dropped me for non-participation, I left it go.

I don't qualify for may surveys either, but I do the videos and some other offers if I haven't done them before. It takes me 3 months to cash out, so don't feel bad.  Do your 30 posts a month and when you get your payment, post it. Right there is $4. I forget when those items pay, but it does help.

If you get the weekly earnings report it reminds you that offers expire in 180 days

Being active on the site and posting on the forum would help greatly. That's $3 a month right there
There are plenty of surveys on the site as well as tasks, videos and other offers. You should be able to complete enough to cashout before the 180 days doing the bare minimum. Even if you just got on a day a week and made $1 you could cashout.

I have a bunch that expired or is expiring. I just recently started coming back to FC after I stopped for like 5 months.

Remember to cash out before 180 days! That's 6 months! Mark it on your calendar...lol

If you have trouble making the $.05 for PTC, do Tap Research under surveys. They give you $.01 if you don't match the survey and it counts toward your total. If you don't see it on the left, attempt a regular survey. Mine always shows up after I get a regular survey DQ.

The best suggestion is trying to come this site everyday for getting that min of 17 cents (daily click and email). Not counting 5 cents requirement before click daily click.  A month you should reach to $5.10 and 5 month you should get a least $25.50, not counting doing any survey. It would be hard to catch up for next two week.

I know it is hard to get on sometimes but you should try to log on at least once week

This is one of the main reasons why it is important to cash out before 180 days. Now it seems futile to try to earn back in vain what you lost. Earning and losing at the same time leaves a bad taste in the mouth which some members learned the hard way; they decided to quit altogether which could have been avoided in the first place.

You have to cash out every 6 months are you will start losing your winnings.

I think most of us have a daily set schedule to do our FC "chores" haha. For me, it's pretty much first thing when I wake up and get coffee because I work 1:45-9:30 most days. On my days off, (such as today) I got some of my FC done all through out the day because I had other things to get done. On my work days, sometimes I can only get my 2 cent email, 15 cent PTC and the bare minimum 5 cents. Actually there have been times I couldn't even get that, but then I get it after work. I hate doing it that way cuz I'm tired and want to relax  

[Shydrop69]

I did not know that these things expired if I did I would of cashed out I went from $33 to $8 I am pissed!!!! I am not using this site anymore that is just stupid!!!!

Thats the pitfalls of this the deadline which is a long one no one theoretically should not cash on time but it happens. Rules are rules but think about it this way since you didn't get paid the site don't for that work either see the site does not get paid unless you cash out and get paid to

if you don't put in the effort then you don't make the money
