Why Is $1.00 Missing From My Account?

I just checked my bank this morning and there is $1.00 missing from yesterday. I am wondering if anyone here has the same problem with their bank amount. Perplexed is the word this morning about this.

@marlina OMG, I'm so sorry, Marie. I did not even think about the fact that I am posting a question to a person that told me that I ask too many questions

Again, you did it again. Asking a question? I am talking about the bank here on Mylot.

I read your title as $1000 - not that would be a big issue. Maybe you lost some earnings from someone whose account was deleted????

I read the title the same way at first glance.

@Asylum And suddenly losing a dollar doesn't seem so bad

This should only happen if one or more of your own discussions, responses or comments were deleted because of a Guideline violation. It should not happen if you did not violate any guidelines but merely responded or commented in a discussion which did.

@AbbyGreenhill It should be pretty obvious after a careful re-reading of the Guidelines. There are one or two things which are due to go in (such as posting material which is yours but published elsewhere) but most things are pretty clearly stated. If in doubt about a particular decision, a quick message to GoAskAlice will usually tell you the exact reason.

And since they don't tell us when that happens...it's guess work as to why. right?

You need to check from your bank why there is less amount than expected amount. I have not faced this kind of problem. If any amount is debited/credited in my account, I receive an instant SMS in this regard from my bank.

@dpk262006 I think that @marlina is talking about her earnings total in MyLot, not her real bank.

@marlina - If possible, call customer care of your bank or visit the branch to inquire about your balance.

I don't recall deleting anything of yours and I'm not sure that it would account for this if I had. The system does adjust itself from time to time, as was the case in the past, expect earnings to fluctuate. The accrued earnings are an estimation, though usually a relatively accurate one. Keep an eye on them and if it keeps happening, please let me know and I'll try and get an answer for you.

I was thinking mine fluctuated off and on for days, sometimes up and sometimes down, but never an entire dollar. Of course I was here before and pretty used to this. I do not count my pennies until they are actually in my PayPal.

@GoAskAlice Thanks for the reply, I only saw it now. Just wondering if everyone has been paid yet, as I haven't yet. Thanks, Marie

I've read of some people having posts deleted because they put the same one up here as well as Bubblews, but even if you'd commented on them and people had responded to you there, I wouldn't have thought the amount concerned would have amounted to a dollar.

Hum, that is one thing that I didn't do: put up a post here previously on somewhere else. About commenting, that I don't know. Thanks for your input.

Someone may have deleted a discussion or had it deleted for some reason. Your interaction there would bring your cache down considerably. Depending how much you did of course. So I bet you make it up quickly with this one. Enjoy!

I see Alex already left a rely below so I hope that this is the only time that it happened to you. I have been here off and on a lot for the past few days and I have not had this happen. My amount has frozen and not updated right away but it always started back and calculated everything from before. If it keeps up message admin they are awesome and will help you out!

I just checked after reading your post and I do not see problems in my Bank. If you are in doubt you should ask Alex.

I wouldn't realize if a buck was missing or not - is there a -1 someplace in your bank? How did you notice that?

I keep track of the money in the morning and when I close up at night on my pad. That's how I noticed it.

@marlina Oh, OK, I don't pay that much attention.

I have not had this problem, so I have no idea what the problem is, I hope that the $1 pops back in again soon. I have just popped in after reading your friend @Juliaacv post to wish you a very happy birthday. It would be kind of nice if they gave you your $1 back seeing as it is your birthday :D

The only way I would know for sure would be if I had written down the amounts. I sometimes think it even changes hour by hour. I know the amounts often changed in the past between the end of the month and when the money moved to PayPal.

I can only guess that someone had a discussion deleted or maybe a whole account which affected several discussions. I try to pay close attention to my totals, I hope this doesn't happen to you again.

I am not having this problem. Quite the contrary. Mine keeps going up, and that is a good thing. My earnings vary from day to day, as at times it is slow in here, like now, but I still earn, just not as much as the day before. As long as I make the payout, that is all that I am concerned about at this point. I should make it and then some.

@TheHorse I am too, but it seems to be slow right now, but I hope before the day is over, that the traffic picks up. I just am not getting very many notifications at all now. I end up responding to new discussions since I don't have notifications to do.

@rosekiss Today is a very slow day so far. But things could pick up later. My most recent post has only one comment on it. It's not one of those "destined to get 30 comments" posts, but I imagine it will get six or seven later today.

I hope you find your answer. I actually have only a vague idea of what my amount was at the end of each day, so I actually wouldn't notice.
