Waste of time with Videos today
« on: February 10, 2015, 08:12:25 am »
Didn't get my daily email from FC so signed up again. Went to videos and tried those that i could supposedly get credit for...Nope. Shame the 2 cent ones were only for certain states.

Wasted my day today.

didnt get paid for the 2 cent videos and when I went back to one of them it said you already completed this offer today. yeah I completed. I turned every page of 15 pages of the slide show, so tha tis 30 page turns cause its always 2 turns for one page.

the web stories paid 2 of 3. there was only 1 hyprmx so out of 13 tries I got cents. plus the outright unfairness of doing a survey and not getting paid.

Went down the page and there were the same videos but without the certain states only offers and only paid 1 cent. Tried those and didn't get credit for those, either. Don't even have the old standby - Hyprmx.

Daily Email still isn't working, even though I signed up again. This is not a good day.

I'm from California so I "qualified" to "watch" the video & they do not work.  They take you to a completely different site.   So don't feel bad if you are from another state, the offer doesn't work, nor credit.

The only videos that credit for me are the 1/2-cent ones, so I do those.

Ya the videos are not to good today allot there but they don't work you click on them and it says you already did this and I am like no I didn't. Or you put in your year and gender and you don't qualify because of age or gender I don't understand that one.

Yes, that's how I do it also.  Just to be on the safe side, I wait for about 35 seconds.  I have always been credited.

Really? That's too bad! The Rack Room one worked fine for me and it was for Florida which is where I am. Did you try to contact support?

The Rack Room (which is for my state) brought up a flyer and I clicked on an item or 2, left it open for a bit and it was credited by time I closed the window and went to my account.  But when I had accident clicked, I think it was the Save Mart video, which was for California only (which I did not see till after It didn't work properly),  did not bring up a flyer and took me somewhere else.  I started to think this was another "bad" video like that hotel one but then I saw the fine print. 
I assume they are getting our location from our IP address.  So maybe those that are in a qualifying state have a service provider giving a different state?  I know everwhere I go on the net thinks I am in Greenville SC,  which is 4-5 hours away and a different state.
