    How is that even slightly valid , I was supposed to be paid in MAY !!! They told me the reasons they didn't pay me in may was because of a change of policy that took place 3 months later (in august) !!!:rolleyes:

    That reminds me of this :p

    Sorry I must have missed that policy bit when I was skimming over all the ranting. "It's slightly valid" because the WidgetBucks guy gave you a "slightly valid" reason for why your payment hadn't gone through.

    Basically, what I've taken out of this whole thing is that you either entered an incorrect email, or ticked the wrong box when you signed up. Once the correct information was provided you got paid.

    Like I said, I've never had any problem receiving payment from them, but then again, I made sure I entered my information correctly when i signed up.

    Wasn't I clear :confused: They were supposed to pay me in MAY , I entered all the info. correctly with a valid email Id . How can their tax policy which was implemented in AUGUST affect my payment which should have been made 3 months before the policy was implemented ???

    And how can it be an invalid ID when the paid me the first time with no problem's ??? I talked to djutilla in DP private messages he told me even he isn't sure why I wasn't paid :eek: to quote him "We’re unable to find any communication prior to the 6th of August that would indicate us explaining the reason for non-payment. This is something we’ll be working on improving in the future." = EPIC SUPPORT TEAM :rolleyes:

    "Like I said, I've never had any problem receiving payment from them, but then again, I made sure I entered my information correctly when i signed up." - Congrats !!! you want me to give you a prize for that ??? . Don't be unreasonably defensive about widgetbucks - they don't deserve it.

    No prize. Just stating a fact. I'm saying I have been paid by them and had no problems.

    Really, I can't see what all your whinging is about. There was a problem, the problem was resolved, you got your money. If you're not happy with their product, move on, find another company you're happy with, and carry on.

    I don't really think that this issue warrants a whole crusade and I think the thread title is a little misleading at best, because they have paid you.

    For the god sake , read the thread carefully first , they did pay him because he made a complaint here. The problem is not to pay or not to pay , but a program should be trustworthy and reliable , they should pay their affiliates in time. This forum also made for webmasters sharing their opinions , and in this case , the postmaster have full right to set it up. If we are followed you , get paid after 3 months+ and just shut up and move on , then whats the use of DP forum ?

    You seriously have some visual problem - In this first post I said that didn't make this thread to get paid , i made it to warn others against such a pathetic lame service . And how the f*** can you tell me to stop whining when you are practically kissing their ass (or rather their swollen pickle) trying to defend them :confused: .
    P.S : Read and then answer

    I'm not trying to kiss there ass, but if trying to provide a balanced and reasoned response is kissing ass then I guess I'm kissing ass. Truth is I hardly use them any more. They were paying ok initially but things went downhill once they stopped serving PPC ads to international traffic.

    I have read your posts, and cutting through all the emotional ranting, here's what I've taken away from them. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, I'm sure you will.

    Did WidgetBucks demonstrate good customer service? No.
    Did they make a mistake? Probably.
    Did they resolve the problem and did you get your money? Yes.

    Is your thread title "Widgetbucks Sucks !!! They don't pay you , WARNING : Don't sign up !!! Reply to Thread" inaccurate and misleading? Yes.

    yes, it is scam. They are not paying and also their payments are very very low, so i don't like them.

    Again , for the god sake , please read the full thread . The OP get paid after 3months+ and AFTER he make a complaint here and there . Do you really think they will pay others if they do not complain ? Most of affiliates will only send them bunch of emails asking for payment etc etc without any results . When a program become smell , its a good job for anyone who note others about it. Btw , if you surf the web , you will find out that more and more people are not getting payment as well.
    I guess you will turn to the OP very soon.

    Did they make a mistake ? YES even they agreed...
    and They paid me after this thread was made so you can't blame me for that , its wasn't inaccurate the time I made it .
    If you are looking for various other reasons to defend widget bucks see this :
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1076819 - that's 10 REASONS !!!

    BTW if I could chance the thread's name now I would change it to : ''Widgetbucks Sucks !!! They refuse to pay you and give lame excuses, WARNING : Don't sign up !!!'' - happy ? :)

    You guys enjoy complaining about Widgetbucks...lol I used them, i didnt like them....you know what i did? I STOPPED USING THEM. Complaining like this, isnt going to solve the problem and make you more money. You know what is? FINDING A NEW NETWORK.

    If you are making good money off widgetbucks, than you can go to any other network and make even better money. I would look into it, because its not worth the frustration. If you need a network which has CPM/CPA/CPC check out my sig.


    But yea dump 'em, dont keep complaining because they dont care, they are making enough to put the presents under the tree, and pay for the heat, along with a nice fine turkey.
