Author Topic: Is this the oldest refund ever (Read 13306 times)

I have a refund for 32 cents which is dated 2017-09-18.

Simply unbelievable.

I have written to them to ask for this to be reversed.

Who the heck ask for a refund of 32 cents from over THREE YEARS AGO?

same to me, same date.

they are very close to be rejected for me as agency I submit my files.

Personally I have thought in the past that these 'refunds' are not refunds at all, but a way of taking revenue 'Fraud' from us the contributors.

If you have the same date, this can be no coincidence, and must be fraud.

If I don't get a satisfactory reply I will stop uploading to them.

This could very well be a precursor to the site going into liquidation, if they are having to defraud contributors with these refunds from years ago.

It could also be a correction.

Thank you for that, but I am not sure that can be the case as it says:-

I mean 2017 over 3 years ago.

I heard that they pretty much run on an autopilot. This case proofs it very well. If a human was involved, a refund from 2017 would not be possible. They are becoming a big disappointment.

I also got two a couple of days ago, from 2018-03-07. $:-\$

I got a few refunds from 11-13 years ago. Is that even legal?

First a refund for 2018 showed up but yesterday I had a couple of refunds for 2009 and 2010.
Maybe their financial system was on hold and will it start adding earnings for earlier years as well?

I'm getting these too now. I agree that taking this cash 13 years later or whatever can't be legal. Are there any lawyers about who know how this works in terms of legal time limits?

Was that a joke? This is Microstock with no rules and no laws to protect us.

-xx.xx too several times, even from years i just started. This agencies are so horrible. There are 3 agencies left i like. all others are so pain, like our enemies and not partners.

Since 8 April 2022 every day two refunds from 2013, 2014, 2016, 2021, 2022.
I wrote them, but they did not reply. So I started deleting my images. Everyday I will remove part of my portfolio.
Enough is enough!

PhotoBomb · « **Reply #15 on:** April 15, 2022, 15:22 »

Three today one from 2016 and two from 2010.

tupungato · « **Reply #16 on:** April 16, 2022, 07:42 »

Who the heck ask for a refund of 32 cents from over THREE YEARS AGO?

Thank you for sharing this. My earning this month is $-0.49
I deleted all my photos.

It seems they're grabbing all the cash they can before walking out the door. At the expense of the contributors. Obviously there is no actual client that asks for a refund after 10 years plus. But they can take it away from you if you had any surplus with them by playing this game.
So, another one bites the dust.
Who's next

? Dreamstime or Alamy or another small player?

Just checked today and found two refunds from 2021-11-30 and 2016-08-15. Both were originally downloaded on those dates. Hard to believe that it can be financially worthwhile to go back so many years for half a 25 cents. Unless, of course this is the tip of a dirty iceberg heading our way.

pancaketom · « **Reply #20 on:** April 16, 2022, 22:10 »

I see a sub from 2010. Wow, we got .36 for subs back then. My 2021 refund is only for .216. I don't feel like my income is doubling,

Fairplay · « **Reply #21 on:** April 17, 2022, 02:46 »

Today 6 refunds

Mantis · « **Reply #22 on:** April 17, 2022, 09:08 »

This is getting ridiculous. Every time I make 3-4 sales, 3-4 refunds are issues for older sales. This just started for me in April. Something doesn't smell right.

JustAnImage · « **Reply #23 on:** April 17, 2022, 09:51 »

Can someone put a screenshot in here, where you find that refunds?

Either I haven't had any refunds yet or I'm too stupid to find them :-)

Thanks
