AllAdvantage drops to 15 hours, ups to $0.53

[onalamwar]

this is ridiculous.. first they force you to download the new bar.. then they raise the payout to $30.. so it takes much longer to get paid if you don't have a downline (the majority of people).. and now they limit you to 15 hours?? 4 months to get a check issues? forget about it.. time to check mvalue out...

looks like the alladvantage ship is sinking; time to abandon ship!! As soo as I have enough hours for my next check I'm going to uninstall them....humm..whats this www.mvalue.com thing? Gonna have to check this out!

[MadCool]

It's because of those damn cheater. Since the advertiser are getting like zero click through from those banners they'll stop advertising on alladvantage. Less money for alladvantage means less money for the users. And seeing that alladvantage is rising it's payout rate and lowering the hours. I just uninstall it from my home and work computer heh!

Found that SoA thing at on DalNet. I hope they catch the f4ckers who are using this program, and for us legitimate people like GotApex and others are now getting screwed. I went to that channel on DalNet and people are getting like 3 and 4k checks. Damn fraudulent use at its best I hope AA goes after them all.

This BLOWS!!!

[jstreet]

Note: This is specific to members in the US (not inclu. US Territories)

AllAdvantage recently dropped its maximum surfing hours from 25 to 15 (doesn't anyone remember when they said they were going to be upped to 40 soon?) and their measly hour rate compensation (ooh, we're raising rates, we're raising rates!) has just SHOT UP a whole three cents...

So, rather than making a possible $12.50 monthly with no referrals, you can make $7.95. Yip, yip, yippee for us.

It is now official:

AllAdvantage is suck!

[cardinal2k]

Do you still need a minimum of 20.00 to get paid each month ?

[coleslaw]

i haven't been using these make-money-while-surfing thingys because none of them come through. sure alladvantage pays off, but it's not worth the hassle anymore in my opinion.

[jeffwein]

I say we threaten a boycott!

June 2000 Global Member Payment Table
YHR DRR ERR MPH POA
United States| 0.53 | 0.1 | 0.05 | 15 | 30 |

YHR = Your Hourly Rate
DRR = Direct Referral Rate
ERR = Extended Referral Rate
MPH = Max Paid Hours
POA = Pay Out Amount

[briguy]

AllAdvantage has been most reliable for me vs. the other guys. I guess it helps to have a few hundred people under you to make some decent money. Too bad we could get spillover from Apex.

[resented]

Now we can all make a whopping 7.95 a month instead of 12.50. Wow this really sucks ass, my checks are gonna drop by the hundreds. With 240 referrals, thats gonna kill my monthly checks.

GDIT AA, First you extend the check payment period, now you clip the hours. You SUCK!

[MadCool]

WHAT?! Dang now i'll uninstall alladvantage. 7.95 blah! I make more on my website!

it's probably due to the new and popular SoA program that came out. that pay - to - surf program definitely works, and it's massive cheating. possible to generate and emulate 1000 accounts at one time.

[Speedfreak]

You have to make $30.00 a month to get a check, now. It went up from $20.

Hey guys, why don't you just have someone pay you $.50 / hr to stand over your shoulder and make note of EVERY Website you visit, then they can leave and sell the list to other companies. That's all any of these "pay-to-surf" schemes are - a way to make a list of what you visit and make money off selling the list to companies who will then turn around and market you.

Guess who's making the money here?

[free4apc]

the min payout is now $30/month as well...

I'd suggest apex to start using mValue instead of AllAdvantage - its 40hrs/month, 50cents/hr, $20 min payout rate, and the same referral layout as AllAdvantage. Its also a 'surf the web' one, so you only get paid when you have msie/netscape active.

I'm not gonna post my refid here, but if you want to signup, I'm gonna post it in the spam forum maybe Apex will come out with his own refid on the main page soon. He'd get $4/ref per month from mvalue instead of the crap from AllAdvantage now.

Otherwise, just signup at www.mvalue.com

I can't believe this.

[free4apc]

Well, this just proves the point that cheating *does* hurt AllAdvantage. I'd sit on IRC and hear all the cheaters that use soa saying that 'cheating doesnt hurt alladvantage because they get money when we get money' and other stupid crap. Well that cheat - SOA - doesnt click on any banners and stuff, so the ad people actually LOSE revenue because they see a decrease in the amount of clickthroughs and visitors to their site, hence they stop using AllAdvantage to post their banners.

I wish they would find a way to catch this SOA crap and fix their pay rates.

CashSurfers is pretty much in the same boat. Their points tripled in one month and the pay rate went from 29cents/hr to 12cents/hr because of an emulator that came out and all these cheaters used it.

Now that AllAdvantage got hit too, people will just find another pay2surf place to attack and cheat until it dies as well. Its the American (and canadian) way - to get money you must screw over the people that have money, by any means necessary.

go America! (and yes, I am American, living in the US)

[loup]

man this sucks... now i gotta wait alittle longer for em checks... man what a bummer....

[fsck]

those pieces of u know what... time to remove aa from my puter. they suck!

[tadow]

damn, that means if u have a weak downline, you have to wait like 4-5 months to get a single check...how lame...

[CiViC]

No way, they're getting $3-$4k checks? Wow..that'd rule, i'd be able to pay for my car in a matter of months with no work at all..of course, the downside is I could get caught/arrested/put in jail for the rest of my life, so i'll pass..

[makm]

hey Ben, you sure about this? how you know? i checked their web site and their current rates are still the same thing, nothing seems to change. I'll be keeping this updated once I can get into my stupid account.

[MadCool]

Ben?! Whose Ben?

[Supox]

Look at their Global Payout Rates Table. If you look at the United States payout it says that the max hours are 15 and the payout is $.53/hr.

[ProMinx]

these guys are really starting to blow howler monkey nuts

[jstreet]

Yeah, I'm sure - they sent all customers and e-mail, apparently, and I think they said it was also on their website... hold on I'll check...

::several minutes later::

Yup, they put up the Global Payment Table at http://www.alladvantage.com/global_pay.asp - I guess the reason that they still have their old rates up on the Current Rates pages underneath some other stuff is that those rates are still applicable for May (and maybe June? I'm not sure). I am, at any rate, going to write them a letter expressing my concern at being forced to download software (that doesn't work - the green light rarely goes on and I frequently suffer from the keyboard input error that they're well aware of but have yet to fix - you type, and about half of what you press gets "actually" typed), then having the payment period upped to 30 hours and the maximum hours dumped to 15, while they can cheekily say "WE RAISED RATES!" at the same time.
