  • no idea when new topics will be up...hopefully very soon, but obviously they want to pay everyone up to date before they start again, i personally think they will implement the account system before starting again because that way they wont have as many payments each week...i just hope they dont put a limit on how much you have to have before you withdraw!

    Yahoo!!! I got paid!!!!! action-smiley-033.gif Very happy (even though paypal took fees confused-smiley-013.gif) My payment aslo came from 'digivate'.

    So I'm with the rest of the folks on this thread - they just weren't ready for all us MSErs:money:, but I do believe truly that their intentions are good - even if they are the middle man! Fingers crossed they are up and running with a system soon.

    I figured out what they are doing with our comments.

    They are using them as posts in their own blogs and getting paid for inserting a text link advert into the post.

    I guessed it would be used elsewhere on web for more cash, so much space to fill
    on websites. Too many readers not enough writers. I don't mind if I get paid my share for it... but I'm still waiting... ... ...it would be great if it works.

    :)
  • I reckon they must have been swamped by MSEres. We only wrote comments for a week and it's taken them ages to pay us all.

    I wouldn't mind, but most of us were just doing a few to see if we actually got paid. God help them when they come back online!

    i think if the site is becoming too swamped, what they will do is make it harder to get a comment published. or just hire more staff. i can't see it closing down or anything.

    There is no charge for a premier account, only a business account.

    I got charged on my premier account - the one I use for ebay - so I opened a personal account as well - but got charged on that as well. I don't have credit cards and as you have to use a different bank account for each PP account, I think it might be because my account hasn't been 'backed' by a bank account yet.

    I could open another bank account, I suppose. But what with? :eek:
    I don't drink, don't smoke, don't go out - why aren't I rich?
    Don't worry, I'm working on it! :p

    There are charges for payments received to Premier accounts, and for payments to personal accounts that are funded by debit or credit card. The fee is 20p plus a percentage of the transaction value. See https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-fees-outside
