It's just impossible for asian members to gain access to ciao again.... never again in my opinion... Out of curiosity, I wanted to know if my ciao account was still there and if its still making money. To answer my thoughts I had to ask a friend from the USA to check my ciao account, yes giving him my login details.. I was so happy to know that I still made $5.20 as far a I can remember with the cents. I asked him to request for a cashout and he was so nice to do everything for me.. I am hoping I will get it on the 15th of May.. Fingers crossed....

Mz_ira, wow u found a nice way to do it.. i hope you get your payout and it was such a bad idea to block countries rather than blocking the people who scam the site. I dont think people outside Asia are 100% honest or people in asia are 100% dishonest. And CIAO lost so many clients thats a real bad business sense.

:) just couldnt get over the fact that I can no longer earn from them and for that I wanted to check whether my account was there.. Luckyily, its still there and so glad it still reached $5 and only means some ciao users still read and rate my reviews...

I think requesting for payout is not a problem, for ciao did mentioned of paying all its members, before they had the policy of banning all asian members ^_^ However, if u did cashout on the previous time, and this is another payout after ciao says to ban all asian members, then i'm not as sure if they will pay u again ^_^ BUt if they really do, that's good news, at least, because u are still getting paid by them, and u have a nice friend to help u out too.. hehe

whoa.. easy there... I dont know how others still manage to login to their accounts but obviously for majority they cannot.No access at all. If not gaining access cant be called "blocked" then what should it be? I am alright with Ciao's decision and that's what has been implemented..

I'm sorry to hear that you're living in one of the countries that Ciao has banned. I just recently became a member of that site and I love it. I can't imagined being banned from it. It's really unfortunate that's what they had to resort to. Oh well, I guess there isn't much we can do about it now. I hope that you do get your payout - you definitely deserve it! My fingers are crossed. Good Luck!

Hello there... What can we do, sometimes we just had to decide for things to get sorted and run smooth and I understand that for them that is the only thing they can do regardless of the minority for the majority's violations.But then again I still do hope they can come up with a better earning site and secured one for us as, asian members can join again... Glad to hear you're loving it and yes it is really splendid..Anyways Good Luck and have a good day

ciao was always a problem for me so i am not logging in since the changeover and you will not believe i have not got a single survey call till then so this is not done they do not care for members and sites that do not care for members i do not like them. now here is something you better join globaltestmarket.com and valuedopinions.co.in they are good and trustworthy they support members and care for them,they give you surveys regularly..one of them will give you check the first one and the other one will give you voutures you can use thats also ok i am using this two sites since two years and i am paid.. another sites is testspin though its gives surveys most of them do not work for me the surveys are like that but it seems that it is going to be a promising site for me ...in future..

I also requested maybe my 1st and last payment from Ciao.com last april. And hopefully this May I'll get something from them. I've been a member of Cioa Surveys Uk site and still recieving Surveys from them, unfortunately I can't pass most of the Survey Requirements. But going back to the main Ciao.com website, I can still access it but the Ciao people are deleting accounts with valid evidence that is against their TOS. Hope it will be fixed ASAP for us to manage a very good community of reviewers. just like MyLot.
