    Yup, only waiting for the standard £25, but nothing for me either.

    Thanks for letting me know there's someone else waiting for payment besides myself! I've just put up a thread on Your Say Pays and found that one other person says they haven't been paid, but another person says they have been paid - I'm not sure whether this is good news or bad news at this stage, but I'll come back and let you know if I find out anything further.

    What really irks me is that I've done several writing jobs for them which they've posted on their various websites - what a cheek to use my work and not pay me for it!

    I also got paid a day late but i do like these as they do pay, answer emails and fix and resolve issues.
  • I started signing up with Vivatic today, it seemed like a good opportunity to earn some cash but I didn't feel happy when I was asked to log into my PayPal account through their site. I couldn't see a padlock sign anywhere either. Usually when these companies want to pay you through Paypal you just give the email address, not your password. Please can anyone reassure me that this would be safe and that my password could not be harvested?

    I just had a look and attempted to login to paypal via Vivatic and padlock was in place and web address began with https.

    Check if the web address is a https one and also just double check you are actually on the right site, not a scam copy site - http://uk.vivatic.com/

    I joined just over a week ago and seemed to be doing OK - then got an e-mail from them :

    Dear member,

    Many thanks for your continuing support of Vivatic.

    Over the last 6 weeks we have noticed an increased volume in results to our tracking system and therefore payments to our members.

    Unfortunately we have discovered that this is a result of some overzealous software from two of our survey partners.

    We have now run some tests and have updated our members balances accordingly. Yours was modified during this process.

    In most instances this is very minor but in the instances where payments has been requested we have had to hold some of these until next month. This has impacted less than 1% of our members.

    We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Regards,

    Vivatic

    When I logged in to their site, my balance had gone down to £8.55 from £15.10 in spite of the fact that I had seen the balance going up on completion of surveys. What's going on ????

    Hi
    I have just received the same email. Checked my balance and it has gone down from £60 to £50 and a few pence. This is a lot of hours gone down the drain. Anyone know the reason for this?
  • Hi,
    A couple of weeks ago I noticed that populus and new vista surveys were giving me £2 per survey instead of £1. I think this is why they are deducting some cash.
