Getting a Lot of White Screens
« on: January 06, 2020, 12:26:06 am »
I am trying to earn my 5 cents by clicking on the search for 3 minutes offers on the video offers.  There is also an offer to engage with the site. Except for one offer that went well, I am getting blank white screens on all the others.

                            The video searches usually work for me, with just 1 or 2 clicks.  I think it's called "Sample Cube" under FC surveys, will often lead to a white page but it's just as well because when they do load, I end up in a "Survey Loop", that never ends until I X-OUT of it with no credit or DQ'd cents.

The situation has improved. I rebooted my computer and that has helped on FC. I am still having some problems on another site but it may be the sites are doing maintenance and or my ISP is doing some maintenance.

I was on these sites soon after 2 am. and that is when many of them do maintenance and updating (for those of you who are usually asleep)

it could be maintenance... only other suggestion I'd have is to clear cookies and cache as well as rebooting if that keeps working

If you haven't waited 24 hours, sometimes those offers will not load again. When that happens to me, I just try again the next day and it works again.

I think that I may have figured out the problem and or the situation corrected itself. In any case, the situation has greatly improved.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Got both the .01 white screens today.  Noticed that they originate in the UK, so maybe they are blocked by our providers as unsafe.  Better not push this if they are unsafe I don't want the penny!!   :sad1:

Yesterday I was able to complete one of those search offers successfully, but I too received white screens on the other two offers. I have not tried any of them today, but hopefully it was just a glitch and they work now. I had originally tried clearing my browsing history and cookies, but it did not help.

I did a couple yesterday, but now one of them is only for 1 cent instead of 2 cents. Darn it! But I sometimes get a white page but in the corner it will say this offer is not available or something like that.

Oh well, the white screen is better than the blue screen of death.
