hi mylotters!
Did you noticed something about ciao lately?my friend told me, her earnings was decreasing but with me it's not adding up or increasing. when i logged in to ciao earlier, i read messages from my COT that there accounts were blocked and then all of their reviews were deleted. what about yours? do you think that we'll be paid for our last months payout?

i haven't notice anything weird as well..i haven't been logged in like 3 weeks in CIAO and when i logged in i found that i have earned $3.16 and when i logged back in the next day i had earned $0.16..so far i don't see any changes in CIAO as of the moment and my reviews are still there and my comments as well just that sometimes when i log in it says its under maintenance..then after few seconds it will be okay...

better learn good TOS. so you not blocked. most of the lots in the blocked account, as they forge a review give rate without reading the reviews. because you want to get quick results. I in Ciao no problem. My brother already paid Ciao. if you want to save money before you are blocked, every $ 5 better payout. so that if your account blocked in the sudden, the work you are not useless.

each $ 5 payout to guard it, if we are on the block. because sometimes we do not knowingly have made a mistake that caused our account is blocked. of us can hold $ 20 dollars in the block. futile $ 20. my friend once in the block, he has been there the previous payout. but he can create an account with the id, email, a different picture.

I heard something similar from another member, but i was not aware of it..I have a feeling that they are cleaning up the site. There has been a lot of spamming and the quality of the reviews being churned out by the majority of the members was very poor, so, they must be bringing in some kind of a much needed discipline and i feel it is all for the better. Now onwards hopefully all the members will concentrate more on writing decent reviews and less on flooding other members inboxs with umpteen requests to rate their reviews..

Hi, janyen. When I read your post, I immediately logged on to Ciao. Unfortunately, I could not remember how much was my total earnings last time I visited the site so I cannot say if it increased or decreased. The good news is, I was not banned. Although I cannot think of any reason why they would. I have a pending payment request, though, and it is not with my Paypal account yet. I will just have to wait and see, huh?
Just a thought. I am really happy with Mylot in terms of payment. I mean, you do not need to request payment, they just immediately transfer it unlike other sites. Very convenient huh?
Have a nice day!

I don't think that you would ever get your payment from your latest reviews. Same thing happen to me a couple months ago. While they changed their polict from $0.25 per review to $0.01 per one. They still owe me about $80.00 some dollars. They never paid me that for all the hard works I contribute to its site. They blocked my account ever since. Consider it as a scam site.

I havent seen anything weird at all. I just recied 6 cents so mine is increasing and i dont have any harsh comments on my reviews.All my reviews i believe are still on there. I havent seen any unusualy things going on with the website. I hope all things work out best for you. If they have a contact, maybe you should contact them and see what is going on. Happy mylotting

I haven't explore much of site but i think i signed up before and did not continue because you have to get friends to review your post. And i am into Mylot and i said my time will be divided if i have to join CIAO.
But sad to hear if that is the problem your having at CIAO right now. I don't know about other users here if they have the same problem as yours and i hope they resolve their issue about this. Happy Mylotting!
