Can't Get Over About Bubblews!

I thought I get over about Bubblews as I have lots of earning sites right now. I am still earning less because I am using this for expenses. If only I do not spend money for medicine I am saving money from my online site right now. But that is not the case. Because of this, sometimes, when the online sites that I am in are experiencing the downfall, the memories of Bubblews comes out. I was doing good at Bubblews. I gain a good reputation and earning more than $500 a month. I am consistent with blogging 10 times a day. Then it happens, it did not pay me. I should not be thinking about it, but my mouth and mind blurt it out when I am having problems with my online earnings. Maybe I am not the kind who easily moves on after being betrayed. Anyway, who can moved on if the sites owes you $700+?

The sad thing is you must "move on," and chalk it up to a bad learning experience. Bubblews isn't going to pay, period. I had a couple of friends who had their accounts terminated when they notified the Better Business Bureau about what the site had done. I'm genuinely surprised the site is still up and running. The dramatic decrease in legitimate writers (with the most recent update the spammers and plagiarizers came back in droves) is a good indication that it's not a site to waste your time on. I'm trying to get my last $8 or so in order to cash out, then I'll be done with the site.

Yes the best thing is to move on I agree to you. I wonder why they still up and running, maybe because they change their rules and less paying the members that are left there. All in all, there are few people there but I am glad they are still being paid.

@grecychunny26 I get the impression that some people are still there because they're trying to reach the next $50 so they can cash out what Bubblews owes them. Others have stayed because they enjoy chatting with the friends they met there, but that won't be necessary for much longer because most of them have moved over to myLot anyway.

@Gina145 Yes a lot of people are admitting they are from Bubblews transferring here and they are very welcome to join us. I agree, they only need to achieved the $50 and for sure will try out to be a member of Mylot too.

$700+ is a lot of money so I can understand that it's hard for you to move on. They owed me a lot less than that and I still found it hard. I reported them to the BBB and got some of my money, but not all of it, but that was when they still had a decent rating with the BBB, so I'm not sure it would work now. At least you did well there while it lasted. I never made anything near as much as you did.

@grecychunny26 Bubblews is no longer accredited to the BBB, so I'm not sure whether reporting them will help, but I guess there's nothing to be lost by trying. Good luck if you do. I've always said they took advantage of people in need and that really annoys me.

No, @Gina145 , reporting Bubblews and Arvind to the BBB did not work for me. So I reported the site and Arvind to the IRS for consumer fraud, theft of payments for contracted work and failure to produce Form 1099 which is needed to file/pay taxes on online earnings from that site.
U.S. law states that any site paying out more than $600 to a U.S. resident must supply that document for tax purposes. I definitely earned more than $600 from that site the first year I wrote there.

The rise and fall of Bubblews really was a sad one to see I think. So many invested a lot of time in the website. Nothing lasts forever, granted, and it will never reach the heights again. And some people got burned as the bottom pulled off.
Sadly though, life does have to go on. It's hard to move on. I have to admit, for as much money as you lost, I would have struggled to move on as well. I was one of the fortunate ones who got paid most of what they were owed. Others weren't as fortunate.

I have officially moved on when I decided to leave Bubblews for the last time. I felt betrayed too, but there's no another choice. So many people are fooled by Bubblews and that was sad. I remember how I sent email to Arvind for 1-3 each months to ask about earning, but it didn't give any result

He will not noticed it as I learn that there are rumors that Arvind already left the site and his friends are there to save the site. So sad that when it became popular, has became the start of the downfall.

@grecychunny26 Arvind left? Woow... I just know it. How irresponsible he is!
Well actually he responded my email and said it will paid next week. Yes, couple of my emails were replied by him and I got promised that it will paid next week or following days. But promise was just promise
The site becomes more popular each day but they were not ready to face the growth and fix the payment system, so the rest is history

@redvakaurvaki Actually, no, Arvind is still there. He is just in a "different position" within the new management "structure" according to the site Moderator on Bubblews.

I always redeemed but they do not pay.I am doing good on the site and weekly, I can have a hundred dollar. They fail short to pay me 7th times . That is why it is hard to forget about what happened.

There is little point in not moving on. The lost money is never going to be recovered. It was a great site while it was paying out - possibly the best of its kind, but they ruined it. We just have to pick up the pieces and get on with our lives. Such sites will not last forever so never get too dependent on them or take on-going income from them for granted.

I agree on picking up the pieces. Good thing I still have some various opportunity online but the earnings is nothing compare to what I earn form Bubblews. There are still opportunity there for sure.

That is a good way to view all online sites, no matter how well established you hope/believe them to be!
Any business can fail! Bubblews failure is so catastrophic because it was caused by the owner, not only by what he did, but by what he failed to do! Had the Bubblews owner/management done something ANYTHING about the scammers/spammers/plagiarists when they first started showing up, instead of waiting until AFTER the business was ground to nothing, it could have been saved!

I used to write for Bubblews. Stopped when I couldn't earn but pennies a day and not compensated for earnings.

Well... that's really sad but just move on, you have no choice. I myself was not paid some amount but I just charge it to experience. By the way, I noticed that the site can't be reached. I was trying to log it but all I was getting is "application error".

WOW! At least I stopped trying after B held onto $75 of my money! Losing $700 to those scam artists would really have p*ssed me off! As it is, I reported the site as well as the named owner/partners to the IRS!
They broke the law when they refused to give us a Form 1099 to use when we filed our taxes and tried to include our online earnings.

It is just right to get them reported after what they had done to us. They need to suffer or else give us back the money that we earned. Remember what they said before, the money that you earned did not exists, what they are trying to make us believe is hilarious.
