Title: Anyone get paid yet for July?
Post by: PixelBytes on August 11, 2016, 14:27
Yeah, I  know it says they will pay us by the 15th, but this is the latest I have ever NOT been paid by SS, and unlike July, there is not a holiday as an excuse.  Anyone else get paid by SS yet?

Paid on 5th as well.  Did you check your profile email address (or whatever address you use for payments)?

Thanks for the responses.  I tried emailing them.  So far no response.  Didn't they used to have a phone #?  Guess contribs don't get to have one anymore.  I'll write again tomorrow.   Don't make what I  used to there, but still my highest paying site. Too much $ to leave on the table.

Paid on the 5th  and for some reason these 11 Days of aug are the best 11 Days in 4/6  Months. Good luck getting them to answer.

Have you read my OP or the thread? Everyone else got paid on the 5th or 6th. Do you submit to SS?  Have you been paid?  I've been contributing there over 7 years and NEVER had to wait anywhere near the 15th to get paid.

Yeah we went through the same thing a couple of months back. A company pays promptly for YEARS, then one month they don't. Some of us ask questions, and every mr. smarty pants here quotes the "paid by the 15th" line. Seriously, I don't think they really even read the posts or even care, if they do...they just want to try and fool everyone into thinking they know everything.  ::)

Let me guess,  you got paid by the 6th?

If nobody else was paid yet I would assume payments were delayed, but since so far I'm the ONLY one that got skipped, thats worrying. 

If your right and I'm just paranoid, then the money is actually in my skrill account and my three letters to contributor support have all been answered.  Nope.  Didnt happen. This is not coffee money for me.  This is more than my mortgage payment.

Seriously tho.  This is the only site that hasn't even sent  a FORM letter telling me they received my enquiries and will get back to me.  What complete  BS.   All the people at SS who gave a cr@p about contributors are gone.  Someone doesn't get paid, oh well, FYIGM.

To the OP: I sent an inquiry on an unrelated subject and it took them nearly two weeks to get back to me in an email apologizing for the delay and saying they were really backed up, so as annoying as it is, don't give up hope of hearing from them and getting it resolved. Good luck!

Same here. It's taking quite awhile for SS to respond.  I suspect they are in a bit of turmoil with all the technology hiccups going on.

Finally got paid thru my skrill account!  Also they sent me a response to my  multiple emails just saying the money had been sent to my account.   No explanation for the delay, but I'm just relieved to have my money.

Mike, did you get paid yet?
