  • I'm beginning to think the site is rubbish and should be ignored.

    Just did a little totally up on my paypal account and sent them this note: The last £60 received in June was a surprise to me as for some reason I didnt get the usuall youve got funds email from paypail.

    Copy of email sent:

    Hello there

    Please can you tell me if I have been paid the correct amount:

    Please find below my rough calculations.

    Cant wait for WS to be back up and running. Sorry about sending it to multiple email addresses, but I wasnt sure which one was still live.

    Thanks
    Andy


    Calculations:
    whats been paid up to now:
    £72.50
    £13.00
    £31.50
    £4.00
    £60.00

    £181.00 Total

    stats show that 146 total posts

    approximate breakdown
    50 COMMENTS @ £1 = £50.00
    96 COMMENTS @ £1.50 = £144.00

    total £194

    PAID £181
    difference to be paid £13.00

    It did seem like a great site at first, but it seems they didn't have the funds or the backing to cope with more than a few commentors. They don't even have the decency to keep us informed.

    I haven't been paid again, that's the 4th Friday gone by since they said they would pay me on Friday.

    I think it's time to give up with WS.

    I sent them an email today asking for an update on whether or not they were going to start posting topics but again, no reply, no acknowledgement.

    I'm with you geordie joe, I think I'm just going to give up on them now, they are just taking the michael with the lack of communication.

    Am sorry to see that happen as I had just joined and was looking forward to posting and earning lots (!) but will just have to find another way!

    I came back from holiday yesterday to find I was paid on Tuesday. That's it though, I won't work for them again. Such a shame because the ethos (charity donation etc) behind the way they operated seemed a good and kindly one.

    Oh well.

    Say the word, geordie joe, and I'll gladly email them for you to tell them what I think. I'm pretty sure that others would too.

    All jokes aside, is it maybe alphabetical with payments? My surname starts with a J, only a thought are they making payments based on that? (I have been partially paid).
    I love this board, have "virtually" met so many lovely people, people I am honoured to count as friends.

    My surname starts with a D, I sure hope it hasn't taken them a month to get to the D's.
