Yesterday I got paid from Factoidz, but the payment was wrong. My March base article earnings were $4.28, but they paid me $2.75 that was my Febrary base article earnings.
I'm very upset with it. I worked very hard to get my earnings up, then at last they didn't pay me what I earned.
Does anybody have the similar problem? oh tell me why? thank you.

I've just get approved to write for factoidz. But it is really difficult to get my article published there. They kept on rejecting my article. About 400 words, that is not a problem. But why on earth grammar? I guess it is just a cheap way to reject articles.
Just hope I can get published there soon. I heard they pay handsome money. I want to experience it also..

I feel sorry for your beginning experience. I don't know why do you get the information that they pay members handsome money. From my experience it's not right.
You can try to send them email to see what their service like. You can also visit the forum to see what others say.
You can also focus my this post to see what will happen with me and other members.
good luck and happy mylotting.

This bad experience really demotivating sometimes. Just like Helium where I get rejected a lot. I haven't wrote them for a while now. I will try to keep submitting to them. Any article I wrote that more than 400 words, I submit to them first and when I get rejected I will submit it to Triond.
Where I heard that Factoidz pay well? In Triond forum. A lot of established member have leaving Triond for Factoidz. They said their earning there for 1 week is more than what they earn for few months at Triond.
I'm just happy at Triond now. Get my payment tomorrow. NOt much just $0.63 but at least I get something. Looking forward for my first payment from Triond.

I am having the same exact problem. My base article earnings added up to $1.90, but they only gave me $1.54. I emailed them on Sunday about this and awaiting a response from them. If I do not hear back within a week and they do not give me my rightful earnings, I would not write for them anymore. In a way, they are stealing from you. You should send them an email if you have not already.

I sent them an email but I didn't get reply. I also tried to post a topic on the forum of factoidz but they don't allow me posting it.
I have a simliar feeling like you. I feel angry and upset. It's a small money, but I did many works to get the base earnings. at last they didn't pay me.
I stop writing for them too. I would wait for a month to see if same thing would happen again or not.
Thank you very much for the reply. Now I don't feel so lonely.

I hate factoidz before i join they are not so strict before and for almost 1 month now they keep returning my articles for some modification after i use a grammar correction software three times of different brand just to make sure my grammar is correct they still return my articles..I really feel sick of the site too, if they keep doing that I may quit too..the new moderator whoever act like ms. or mr. perfect..they use a robot software or human with a robot hard heart..
I would likely take full time to write on other writing site than waiting for almost 3 weeks before waiting for a moderator to check my articles..the moderator there are so slow to act like a turtle..it say they gonna make review within 24 hours in my case it takes more than 1 week for an articles after review they return.return it again...what a waste of time!!!!
I heard so much quit complain and in some website articles i read online they are like ponzi scheme..
they just impress new writer then downgrade them later to become member or demoted until they are not being paid in the end..tsk..tsk..I smell something fishy..
though some keep quiet but their is real problem over there no one really assess or could not ask them directly and if you do your gonna be out..

Hi, Flower thanks for your reply. I totally agree with what you said. I have a similar experiences with the site. No matter what your message is they never reply. I have published over 80 articles then they disgraded me from Staff member to factoidz writer. Now I have less paid experience. I would slow down my pubish speed there and try to find new writing sites.
