Always Have a Cushion
« on: May 24, 2020, 02:07:19 pm »
It's a good idea to always have more than the $25 minimum when cashing out.  This month I cashed out a few days ago with a little over $26.  It wasn't enough to keep my cash out amount over $25 when one of the higher paying surveys was revoked.  Luckily, over the last couple of days, I've earned about $2, which was enough to let me cash out once more.  I did have an official notice from FusionCash about what had happened, but didn't see it until I'd already figured it out.  I'm thankful I had built up enough reserves to get me back up to the cash out minimum!

Why did they revoke the survey after you completed it? That seems fishy.

It's a good idea to have a little extra.  I think FC even recommends that.  It's happened to me a couple times too.

Good idea, thanks! Do you know why you had a survey revoked? Did they tell you? Curious is all.

That is some good advice to follow. I have only had one offer revoked during my time here. I was not told why it was revoked, but it fortunately did not affect my cash out. I am glad you were still able to cash out.

It actually suggests that when you cash out.  The only time I have had that happen in almost 10 years the revoked amount would have sent me below the $25 to qualify for cash out.  The cashout was still processed and they just deducted the revoked amount from the next months earnings.

It isn't fishy. smh  You have been a member of this site for 10 years and are not aware that survey pay can later revoked?

You are never told why.  The first time it happened I sent in a support ticket and they sent back a one size fits all standard reply for why surveys can be revoked after completing them. Surveys are a gamble and people who do them often know this. You may get paid and you may not. It has been a long time since I have had one revoked and this is the ONLY site that does this.  Or at least that does it to me.  I have never had money earned taken back on another site.

A few years back, I had payment for a survey revoked and it affected my cashout. My cashout was cancelled because I fell below the $25 minimum to cash out. Money went back into my account and I was able to cashout the next month.

I thought that I was safe when I cashed out because i was cashing out for about $27.00 but the payment that was revoked was just over $3.00 thus bringing down my cashout to about $24.00.

I had a higher paying survey revoked once a couple years ago. We seem to be at the mercy of surveyors.

I have heard about surveys being rejected and it has always made me reluctant to do surveys. I think I may have done ten or eleven surveys in my nine plus years posting with Fusion Cash. I typically under promise and over extend, do not like to re do anything, and would be less than happy if I put time into a survey and had it rejected-especially after putting time and effort into something. If I do a job, I do it right. I always put in thirty one posts so that I do one more than is required. I stop typing replies when I hit line seven so that the post is not flagged for being too short. Videos and coupon clipping have been a little thin lately so I had considered doing a few surveys so that I could cash out quicker. If I do, I will follow your advice and make sure that my balance is closer to thirty dollars.

A few years ago I did some recruiting for Zeek Rewards and later had them sue all the so called "Net Winners" in Federal Court and I had to pay back $1300. Oh well, easy come easy go. They got the judgement because it was a Ponzi Scheme.

I always try to make at least $30 every month when I cashout... a few times it is less but I cashout every month and only had one survey revoked when I first started doing FC... no problems since then
