Title: 406 Not Acceptable at Bigstock
Post by: epixx on May 11, 2023, 19:32

With just a few cent left to reach the payout limit of $50 at Bigstock, I'm now getting "406 Not Acceptable" when I try to access the site. Has been happening for 3 days so far. Does anybody else get this? Are they closing down?

It has literally taken years to (almost) reach the payout limit this time, so I'm not happy about this. Not that it's a lot of money, even by microstock standards, but 50 dollars is 50 dollars.

Their  web-site works, I can log-in, so maybe check Your cookies and all that stuff.

Don't know about Bigstock. But whenever I get this 406 error at Shutterstock, it means it doesn't like my IP address. Cookies clearing or resetting browser would not cut it. Only resetting my router to get new IP fixes it for me.

Agree - that's what I've had to do in the past. Also, if you switch off wifi on your phone, and connect via 4G, that seems to work.
