Dissapointed about Bubblews...

A month ago I've joined Bubblews and since then I've made on it about 45$. I've made my own articles, no copy paste, saying every time from where I got photos from the articles and so on. About a week ago I've decided to try a redemption for my money. I've waited an email...my money on Paypal...but nothing. I thought it might be a little mistake and I've contacted the support and..again..I've waited for a reponse two days, but nothing... I've let some messages[not spam] on some Moderator's profile, and nothing. Not any single sing of life.
Now, I'm asking you, myLotters, did this happened to you too? What have you done? Or is it any way of getting my rights? Or...what to do?
I'm disappointed when I give all my trust in something, but in turn, they don't give my rights...

It sounds to me that this site is similar to another popular website scam called Readbud. That scam site was the same way promised it's members $50 for reading and evalutaing articles. I'm glad I didn't join neither of these scam sites.
I stumble up on Bubblews about a month ago and record it in my archives for future references I was hearing good things about this site how people were earning so mush with Bubblews. Now, I hearing that they are not paying their members when they reach cashout sounds familar"Readbud."

@Christiginal I think that since mylot folded Bubblews wasn't prepare for such an influx of new members. I've been having problems posting and commenting lately.

I don't understand why so many people are having problems there. I've made 7 redemption's all $25-$27, and I've received every single one of them. But I have noticed that people who makes high redemption's don't get paid as fast.. but I doubt that's the problem.

Same thing happened to me there. I wrote them and their excuse was I had accepted a follower there that asked me to follow them. I gave up there, after that.

My Sis try iwriter.com or other writing side where they pay without any problem whenever you reach minimum payout. There are lots and lots of side which pays good for your hardwork.

Did you try to contact RickLynn from there? I didn't get my first echeck notification the day after I redeemed. It took me about 2 weeks to get paid because my account was under review. What she did was pass my name to the CEO of Bubblews. A few days after that I saw one post from BubblewsSupport1 that my account was under review. I made 3 redemptions already and got paid. My second and third redemptions went on quickly. Were you asked where you promote your posts?

I'm sorry to hear that. I know bubblews and I have not try it since I have read a lot reviews that members got paid and some are dont which is not fair for some other members that are working hard to earn. Hope that you will receive your payment and update us if you did.

I agree with you. I also hear of bubblews but I just can't say and get any ideas..yaar. I heard many good reviews and nagative too. Many people are saying they are getting bpaid and some complains to cashout or when they are at the average to reach their minimum payout they faced some vague issues.

Yume, you are wrong by saying you don't have to write in perfect English, you even went as far as giving a pertinent advice, the use of a translator, which never seems to accurately.
You should know the one language the internet speaks is English, just as the US$ being the financial currency of the internet, so why aren't people asking for their payment online in their local currency.
Every website need content and not just any content, English content except they are focused on a certain country or language. If you aren't a born writer or a native english speaker then writing isn't for you. In any of these cases, you could still write if you have the desire to learn and understanding then you could be a good writer.
I have noticed that it is the desire and drive to earn money and be able to live fine in Asian countries that makes then want to do anything online just to earn money. Some go to school and end up being professionals while others who just have education up to high school level are so conversant on the internet, thinking it provides a way for them to also live big since the exchange rate is favorable.
The internet is for knowledgeable people, people who want to be conversant with things happening around the world hourly, more so it is for professionals, people who use internet as their boss because it pays them.
Yume and others interested in writing articles, it's even easier than other professional writing, take your time, visit how to write blogs and forum, have someone teach you there and help other writers live how they use to, because you guys provide webmasters an option to pay stipends for a good job. You guys provide a cheaper service that is why you see small earning as being big.
Someone said they have written 400 articles on Bubblews, if it's true and was writing for site owners, webmasters and other good writing sites, that will be almost $4,000 worth of writing atleast $2,000 even if you are being paid $5 per article. Think about it.

Well, in the last time I see more and more people complaining about payments [and there is me too], but I also see people who say they're paid very quickly... So I think it's at your choice. I personally I don't lose my hope, maybe I'll get my money, and other's too. There it's a rumor that they don't have founds for now... Maybe this situation will be cleared this days/month[should I add ''/year'' too o-0?].
It's your choice to join this site or not, maybe it depends of the luck of the person about the payment :D. Good luck in case if you join Bubblews and please tell us if you're getting paid or not ^^!
P.S: Remember that you don't have to write in a perfect English your articles, you can translate them with a translator too, but they must be in English. :)

Sorry to hear that. I just emailed them under the "Contact Us" page way back. What's your username in Bubblews? How many articles did you post within 24 hours? What day and date did you make your redemption? Did you provide the correct email of your PayPal? Is your PayPal verified? Did you ask anyone to like your post, comment or view, connect back or say connected?
You may also visit the profile of "BubblewsSupport1" and check if your account is under review. They have new update last March 6.

Thank you for support and the advices!
My user name in Bubblews is: Yuki11.
In the last 24 hours, in fact in the last week I haven't time to write very much articles, I wrote just 1 article:(... But I've never posted more than 10 articles, my best days were the days when i wrote 4 articles :D.
I don't remember the exact day/ date when I made the redemption,by this I mean I don't remember if I made the redemption on the last week's Saturday on Sunday xD.
Yes, my PayPal address was correct, I'm very sure about this :).
And from this point are coming the ''no'' 's : No, I don't have my PayPal verified,but I heard some people that got their money without verified PayPal... Even this, they should contact me in case that they can't send me money because of my unverified account, or they should put this condition at the rules...
No, I didn't asked anyone to like/view/comment my posts, but at the beginning I saw people saying ''connect back'' so I said it too, but after I read some myths about this''connect back'' I stopped doing this, even this, if this thing is prohibited, they should advise us to not do this...Many people asked them about this and they haven't responded...
Thank you for telling me about BubblewsSupport1 , I didn't knew about it. I'm not on their list, but I will wait as other people are waiting for their pays too...Maybe someday I'll get my money, my answers and regain my trust in them. Until then, I'll post just occasionally on their site, I plan on making larger articles and going to build a blog, then make something from it :).
Anyway : Thank you again for your advices and tips^^!

Haha, happened to me a lot. Features of online jobs, you work hard and the chances of getting paid is like 50/50. I have learned my lessons the hard way, so i suggest you do your research before jumping to a online site. Good luck next time.

Paypal says it could take around three to five days for the credit to appear in paypal. Have you checked it again. If not, write to the moderator again. You should get your money back.
Hope you have got your money already and if not, Good luck. $ 45 is a lot of money. Dont loose hope.

First time I have posted in a long time on Mylot, still miss the old site. I think Bubblenews is another site that promised more than they could give.I am not saying it is not going to be around but they have very selective payment measure. I see certain people getting paid and paid from their comments and other people have just dropped off the face of the Earth. I really hate to make this political but the site really does remind me of Republicans, preaching all this stuff about working hard and changing the world but it is really just about making them money.

Hi friend, sad to hear about your story. 45 dollars is not a simple amount. Luckily i am not a member there as well as i don't have faith with such kind of sites. As you mentioned you don't get any replies from them, better to keep distance from that site. You did a great job by creating this topic in mylot, other mylotters will be careful after reading this topic

I see a lot of bad reviews on bubblews so I did not attempt to join or even visit that site.. I have been scamed before so I know the feeling you are feeling right now.. I join a site where I thought I could earn so I did my best to reach their payout but it turned out to be a scammed so after that incident I am now cautious on the sites I am joining..

I am a memeber of bubblews, I haven't been paid yet because, I am not close to pay out, right now I just have $6.15 in my account, I will go back there some time soon, when I can come up with some more ideas, for a post to put on there, but right now I am busy here in Mylot.

I'm sorry this happened to you, I've seen a lot of people being paid by that website. I'm not a member there but I've realized the earning rates there are too high compared with other websites, so I tought it's a matter of time for them to reduce these rates or turn scam.
For now, you've convinced me not to join that website. It's not easy for me to write a lot of articles as English is not my main language, so I won't waste my time there.
I've also read that they take more than a week to send payouts, and that they don't specify cashout wait time in any part of the site, so I think you shouldn't lose your hope yet despite the lame lack of support.

I'm sorry to hear this happened to you. I can somewhat relate to what you're saying, but my situation happened with Weegy. I had gotten close to payout, and my account was suspended. I'm a member of Bubblws as well, but I've yet to earn enough to redeem anything. I have however seen several members make complaints about not receiving any update on their redemption's. I personally think that this is wrong and unprofessional from any site. Best wishes to you.

I too have joined Bubblews recently.This is the second time that I have come across a negative comment about this site.I joined it just because people kept telling me it's a good site and pays decently.I joined it and till now have got 11 of my articles published there.Now that so many people are talking negatively about the site,I smell a rat there.Now I am toying with the idea of stopping writing for it.

I know how it feels when all your hard work turns into nothing. I am a member of bubblews too, since november. I already have done 11 redemptions since I've joined bubblews but only 10 have reached my paypal account. The one that didn't make it was redeemed on the second week of december when the site is having some problems and I am not aware of it. Members including me didn't get the amount we've redeem. I don't know what happened because they didn't notify us if we have break any rules even if we've contacted the support. That was one of the part of bubblews they should put more attention.

I haven't tried the site myself, but I have seen that some people don't get paid. It actually makes sense to me that they can't afford to pay everyone (even though they have agree to pay you and should be paying you) because they apparently pay 50% of revenue, have to pay employees, and have to keep the domain up. The site isn't huge either so they probably don't even make that much money right now. Hope you get your money, and stay patient, email again if you have to, and make sure you write a review about their site somewhere.
Also don't do a lot of money genration stuff on their site until you get paid. Best of luck.
