I've been with SS since 2004 (with a hiatus 2008-11 while exclusive with iStock) and I've never had a refund. That could be because they never give the buyer a refund or because they eat the cost. Either way, other agencies could behave that way but they don't.

I think most of the other agencies I've contributed to have charged me for refunds - of those who haven't, like Pond5, GL Stock and StockFresh, sales haven't amounted to much either, so it's not really a fair comparison to the higher volume sites.

One site (that I'm no longer with) charged me a refund when my account was closed! When I returned to 123rf in 2011 after my exclusive stint, I had a negative balance. They explained they'd done an audit of some earlier sales records and the refund was a result.

Contrast that with SS, who had a payment for extended licenses that should have been purchased (but weren't) who contacted me in 2010 while my account was inactive to pay me the money I was owed.

I think it's a glitch and not a refund, as I'm pretty sure Shutterstock absorb all refund costs, unless they think that you may be personally involved in a scam of some sort, and then they will freeze your account to investigate.

I had 3 sales showing for today a few minutes ago, then 0, then 3 again and now 0. I'm sure it will settle down when whatever is going on is fixed.

I'm seeing things on the map, but when I try to view sales it fluctuates between 1 or 9 - neither of which are correct, so I guess they will fix it eventually.

I checked the SS forums and it looks to be a widespread issue.

Never had a refund on SS.  On DT, DP, 123 and of course iStock, yes, but so far never on SS.

The same here. I have several subs and one Sod. They come and go... come and go ...come and go. :o

Presumably there are different servers providing the data we see and they aren't completely in synch with each other.

It's been like that the whole day, every page refresh changes earnings back and forth.

Yes, the whole day, and after this started I had no new sales or I can't see them.
