Is it only me having this problem or you guys have it too? I went into palmbux this morning and the website is either down/moved. It says : "Network timeout". But i have no problem with other websites i go to..what happened to palmbux? :\

All these sort of sites end up disappearing in the end. Some of them are scams that run genuinely for a long time before running off with accumulated earnings. Others have more genuine intentions but end up shutting down for other reasons, such as not making enough money to pay their users. They all disappear in the end!

Palmbux is so promising and they doesn't seems to have any problem with payment and stuff. Really hope they are just facing some website problems, the admin of palmbux is really nice.

Yep, Bux.to seems to still be going to though they are also heavily behind with their payments. It's classic! They end building too big a backlog of due payments and end up not being able to deal with it. I guarantee you they will all end up in the same place.

Its not just you, I went to the site yesterday and kept coming back but the site page won't load, it says network timeout. At first I thought it was my connection but I tried to access different site and it loaded up so. Figured it was just palmbux. I don't know what happen to them.

Hi Janetx3. I am a member of Palmbux as well. I have been trying to log in for 2 days already but I am having a hard time accessing my account. I thought there was something wrong with my account. Upon reading your post, I learned that their server is down. I hope that they will have it fixed in not time at all. Thanks.

Yeap, had the same issue today, and still am. It gives me "Address Not Found" error on Firefox for me. There had been times I could not login, etc. recently so I have big doubts about them now. Fingers crossed X(

I've tried to log on to Palmbux about three times today and the same thing happened to me. I'm really not upset though, I only had about 13 cents.

I've checked the site yesterday and encountered the same problem that you did. I just thought it is a simple server error. I've tried again today and the same problem is still there and now I'm worried. I still have earnings there and it is a good site so it will be such a loss if it will not be back again.

I just tried too and couldn't get in. I just saw another discussion that says Palmbux is closed. I didn't read it yet, but I'm heading there. I only had about 7 cents in my account right now, so I'm not upset, but this sort of thing seems to be happening a lot lately with various sites.

I also have several referrals there. 24 of the 25 slots were occupied but only half is active. I hope it comes back soon. I still have some amount there. I'm sure it is just undergoing a script or system upgrade to accommodate more members.
