I've been using the site for quite some time now and have successfully reached and received payout a few times.
However, now when I try to use the site any tasks I complete are not showing up as being completed, therefore they don't get approved and I don't get paid.
Although they have a support page with FAQ, etc I can no longer find a way of contacting them. Have they turned into a scam site? Because that's how it seems at the moment!

I've experienced it too before and I think it is due to so many workers submitting their proofs. Microworkers is having difficulty with their traffic from their workers at a certain time. When this happens,I just repeatedly submit my proof until it is seen in the "tasks I finished" list.
Don't worry,the site is not a scam. I always get paid there.

Just be patient in submitting your proof, after all, we deserve to get paid, right? It's our obligation to see if our tasks were submitted successfully.

I have had the same issue and it seems to be linked to your temporary success rating. This drops when you are waiting for a task to be approved and when it is below 75% none of the tasks you do will complete. It's very frustrating as sometimes you have to wait 7 days until you can do anything again, although it doesn't seem to affect the HG jobs, unless the rating is 0%.

Have you checked your TEMPORARY success rate as well? That seems to be causing the problem for me.

Ah, that would make sense I guess. Maybe they should be reviewing completed work quicker than at 7days then for new members if this is the case? As many people would decide it's not working and not worth it. I will wait until my pending gets a result and then try again. Thank you for the info. Have marked your comment with a + as it's very useful to know.

I am using Microworkers and until now I do not see any problem using their system. I reached four cash-out with them and I love the site. I think you are referring to some task that we finished and then it is says auto postpone, for me this is just normal although we already consume our effort and time.

There are so many changes in MW and It is supported by Alert Pay for payments now, not Paypal.Mw has always been high handed but I did not know they are not approving tasks or their site is down.

This is site is legit site I am working since last 6 months and get payment at one time. But if your ratio is less then task is not received and some task creator take more time for approving the task. My some task approved after 15 days. So dont worry about site.

Oh no.. i was just about to get started with them and this doesnt seems good.
They really have limitation of workers? i have registered since last year but i havent get my pin yet, i was thinking to ONLY start work there once i get my PIN.
they dont any sort of forum where we can communicate with the support team?
