Do you face such situation from ComparedBy US?

I've written a lot of reviews for ComparedBy US in December and rated a lot of the reviews too. My total amount was $80 and I requested payout from them. However, few days later, they decided to remove the earning-per-rating mode and reduced $11 from my total earning. The total earning became $69, but due to the fact that I have already requested payout from them, my account balance became -$11 and the payment in process retains at $80.
What happened few days ago was they canceled my request, and sent the money back to my account balance. I tried to email them but they didn't reply me. I have no idea why they did this. In fact, they can actually credit the $69 to me and don't need to send the entire sum back to my account, thus canceling the process.
I am sure many other people have experienced this since they canceled the earning-per-rating AFTER a lot of us have requested for payment. Somehow, I do have a bad feeling about this site.
What do you think? Do you experience something like this too?

It says in one of the recent updates after the recent change, that they will be reviewing the reviews to make sure there is enough effort put forth into them.If there is not, your payout amount is subject to change.Just didn't want people to believe Comparedby.us is a scam, considering they mention why they subtract a small amount.
Good luck!!

I'm not really sure if they are scam site.
Anyway, my reviews are all pretty good reviews with more than 2000 words (most with 3000 or more). I used to be very active in Ciao and I've also reached few payouts before in ReviewStream. That's why I doubt my payment request has been canceled due to my lousy reviews.
