PTC/Daily Email - Section 8
« on: June 12, 2019, 06:49:25 am »
The PTC and daily email ads sure are pushing Section 8 housing! Is everyone else getting directed to the same Section 8 availability site for all of the click ads in PTC and daily email? Regardless of the text link to the ad... I was hoping to win a free iPhone 6, but instead was offered the chance to search for low income housing in my city. Talk about a bait and switch! 
 ;)

I did not know you were ever offered the opportunity to win anything.  I do not pay attention to the ad.  I just enter the text and submit to get the 15 cents.  Seems like I am almost always taken to a survey that I just X out of because the last time I did that I did not get paid for the survey.

I would be leery of the ads to win an iPhone or any smart phone.  I did win a sweepstakes once so I know there really are winners but these phones and stuff I am skeptical about.

Yes, they've been showing that ad for quite a while now  no matter which ad you click.  ::)

Can't complain about the three ads you have to click to earn the PTC!!  Easy to do and even though they all seem to go to the same page, they aren't bad

If everything you click on goes to the same page then something is wrong.  Mine always goes to something related to whatever topic I click.  I know for a long time the job search one was going to the same page with the same listings no matter what and I said something about it and now it is different so obviously it was a glitch or something not working right.

              Yes, I've been getting the Section 8 ads on my daily email and PTC for a few months now, no matter what ad I click on.

Yes have been getting the same site also but I really look at the site just finish up my FC and move on.  Doesn't matter what pops up as long as FC credits my account.

I have seen it  frequently on a daily bases for the pass week or more; I guess they feel it's a good way to provide information to anyone who may need to see if they qualify for Section 8 housing.

Yes, I have also been getting the Section 8 ads regardless of which link I click. I do not mind, as I usually just continue on with the PTC or e mail task.

Yes,I have been getting directed straight to the Section 8 Housing as well. Are we all going to wind up in Section 8 someday?

I'm pretty sure that everyone doing ptc is being directed to Section 8.  Since this page has been coming up for at least a month now, all of us very well may end up in Section 8.

That's a scary thought.  :o  Hopefully they will allow pets because I simply can't do without my beloved fur babies.   :cat: :cat: :dog: :dog:

Yes, I've been getting the same ad.  I don't usually pay attention to what the ad is either.  I just click it and x out of it to get paid.

I think they meant the sponsor ads. There's one that says "Win an iPhone" I don't know that it's ever actually given you a chance to win one though! And yes, I'm getting the Section 8 housing ad too. I actually almost thought about filling it out because I do need a place, sort of, but I hope to move out of state soon so I decided against it.
