Last batch here went through very quickly as well.

That's interesting I've had three images "under review" since last Friday.

I uploaded a batch of 5 earlier today and the review time said "3 hours"; nice! so I uploaded another 14 and now the review time says "89 hours", so did a bunch of people read this thread and subsequently tie up the quick review times?

this happens all the time everywhere....in my opinion it shows only, that microstockagencys make millions but have small teams, otherwise this dramatical variations don't make sense to me.
In some month, belive me, you will post messages about the long time DR needs for reviewing. And some month more you wouldn't notice anymore, because...change happens.

All agencys change permanent, some bought some others, someone lower prices, some other invest in service and the last one in marketing. They all have only one target: to make the most profit out of the pictures we have to offer. They produce nothing, they have no financial risc, they only sell our benefit.

If someone gets 50-80% of the money he earns by my output i would expect it takes minutes to review my pictures. But after 6 years this is still a "new" business where people can behave like idiots and still make millions. This will change, for shure.

The change will happen faster if some of us wouldn't cry out "cheer" if bad service change into lightly better bad service.

DT takes an average of 1 week with my images.  FT however managed to review the first images of a 20-image-batch BEFORE I finished submitting the last one.  And 10 minutes later all 20 were reviewed and approved.  This was the third week they managed to do this, so it wasn't a coincidence.

no change here, regular time for me.
