MyLot Piggy Bank is Locked

Since around 2 yesterday afternoon my piggy bank has been holding stead at one dollar amount. I have seen XX.9277 holding steady now for hours. I have had over 100 notifications, read, answered and responded to a lot of discussion. Normally in the morning when I sign in I have found an increase in my earning. Today however, this one hasn’t happened. My bank remains locked with no increase in site. I had 58 notifications awaiting me this morning. Normally when I receive this many I can expect a .20 cent increase. More or less depending on what the notification said. Since yesterday afternoon I have responded to maybe 150++ comments. I read during the day and left messages on +35 discussions. What is going on. Normally this amount of activity will earn me my .33 cents in a days time. Yesterday I didn’t earn even this because when my bank hit the magical number of XX.9277 it locked. Has anyone else seen this problem? I did send a PM to Alex and haven’t heard anything. I tried to see if anyone else had this problem and I can’t find anyone. Thanks for the help and I hope it will be fixed soon. I don’t want to do much more here until the piggy bank is unlocked. BTW logged off – logged back in – refreshed my screen, even clicked on my bank’s number to display my earning from the site. Still no change and it can’t be unlocked. Help Owl or Lamb give me some ideas how to fix this issue. Image personal image

Yes I saw this. I posted this really early here on the site. Nobody had posted one as of the time I did mine. Now I see a few came later on and posted on the same thing.

Mine was stuck for a while, but it's moving again. Hope it recovers for you soon.

@poehere I think they say it's a display issue. Hope it's now sorted for you.

It was stuck for about hours last night. Mine has started to update again, but very slowly. Hopefully it will be fully unstuck soon.

@poehere That's my experience as well. Not sure what's going on.

@TheHorse Alex said it was a bug and happens now and then. He said don't worry what ever we have done is recorded even if we don't see it. I saw mine jump up and then froze and now took another jump when I hit refresh. Normally I never have to do this but today it seems necessary.

Alex has said somewhere or to some one (owlings I think) that they are aware of the bug and the money is still being collected - just not displaying.

No need to worry about your bank, it is safe. Sometimes, it may so happen that updation may take time due to technical glitch.

Yes Alex assured me that the bank is fine and even if our counter is stuck their counter is working fine. They will get all of our credits done in time and we don't need to worry for this.

Once, mine did not move for a week. I sent a message to an admin about it and it started working again. It has not moved all day today and I have been posting quite a bit.

@akalinus I saw this before now and then but it never happened to me. This was the first time. I guess that is why I asked.

I thought of something this morning about this. Do you keep track of your earnings day by day? If not, it may seem like the bank is stuck when in fact it may be moving but you've not remembered the exact penny it was on last. I keep track when I'm here. I'll make a note of it on a spreadsheet when I get here in the morning or whenever, and then again later at night. Sometimes I'll jot down the increases during the day too, but not always. Just yesterday, twice it looked like it was stuck until I looked again at my spreadsheet. I found it did move both times by a few pennies or nano-pennies. I wouldn't have known had I not been keeping track. I've heard people say that the first dollar seems to go the slowest and then after that it gains momentum. It appeared that way for me the first time too.

No this did not happen. It got stuck on the same dollar amount for over 20 hours. Then when the bug was fixed the piggy bank jumped up and up and it caught up with all of my work on the site. it then reflected the right earning for me.

I came this morning and then off most of the day. I came back and it hadn't changed at all. Then all of a sudden it changed but it was still strange. I think it's OK now.

I figured staff was out chasing a turkey or having a feast. It was stuck, I was busy, today it is unstuck. If it had stayed stuck I might have sent alex or bugs an inquiry.

Looks like they finished their turkey and headed right over here to help us out. It seems to be working very well right now and it is nice to see this one.

I think the problem solves now. It probably has to do with late updating, and there is nothing to worry about. I sure hope that the payment next month is smooth and I can see the money in my Paypal sooner rather than later.

Nothing new, such thing happened in past, but everything is fine and actual amount will be fixed. If your amount is not rising, this means others are also facing this situation

Yes I saw a few too that came after mine. Guess they don't search before posting. If one was up before this I would of just commented on it and gone on.

Yes refresh it a few times and the bank will catch up and change
