Today we should have been paid by Triond,as it usually happens on the 10th of every month,but this time its users had an unpleasant surprise:Paypal suspended Triond's account.They say on their blog that this is just a temporary situation and the account will be restored,but,taking into consideration all the glitches and problems which made many users lose their patience with this site in the past year,I'm not very confident that things will go back to normal very soon.Anyway,even if the earnings are low,I still like this writing site for the freedom of expression it offers its users and for all the friendly people which form a nice community there,so I would like to know from Triond users what they think about this unexpected situation and about the future of the site in general.

This is shocking news, bro, especially when your income is high enough to cash out. I am still new at Triond have submitted 8 articles so far. I don't know if I have made some earning there since I haven't checked out there. Back to the delayed payment in Triond. Is the first time for Triond to delay payment? This is not good news and I hope it will turn out to be what you have expected. I remember joining a site some years ago. It had a similar problem--delaying payment, which in the end turned out to be no payment to be cashed out to its members. And finally the site was slowly down and unplugged. I hope this will never happen with Triond. I hope the thing will turn out soon. Be patient, bro.

Hi Yanzalong, you can rest assured that Triond is a good site. It has paid us once the matter is resolved. I think you can continue to write or promote your content for a payout. The payout is only fifty cents, so getting paid is not such a big deal. Triond has been around for years, so it is unfair to compare it with those sites that do not pay.

Well,bro,this is indeed the first time Triond payments were delayed,but I'm still optimistic and I think Triond won't have the same cruel fate as the site you mentioned,so I am patient and I'm sure there are many other Triond users who haven't lost their confidence in it yet.

I wasn't aware of the payment glitch and not that I care that much. I stopped writing at that place some time ago as I just see it as a waste of time. At this time I prefer to write for ExpertColumn. I still get between 50 and 100 views per day.

It's true that they solved the problem in two days and I got paid,but nevertheless the amounts of money I earn from Triond after almost 100 articles published are ridiculous.It's a shame that Triond admins don't care about the members;I guess Triond's end isn't far away.

Hi polaris, This is news indeed. Triond has never been late in their payments until today. I'm surprised that Paypal suspended Triond's account actually. I wonder what's the actual reason for the suspension. I hope this will be resolved soon. I have not been very active with Triond in the past few months as I have been very very busy with work. So I think I have to spread my eggs a little.

Unfortunately,there's a first time for every bad event that can happen,such as the delay in payments in Triond;I still hope things will be solved soon and Paypal will restore their account.

I looked at their blog and I'm very grateful that they told us what happened and hopefully it will be fixed soon. I will continue to write for them and I will still use the site.

Yes,they say that it will be fixed soon,and I hope they're right,but I still have doubts about that.All we can do right now is wait for them to solve their Paypal issues.
