Title: No payment mail yet?
Post by: eyewave on September 07, 2021, 02:13: Did anyone get the "Your latest payment has been calculated" mail for August? Usually it comes between 2nd and 5th...
Or has anyone actually received August payment?

problem is this happened few times already this year. people haven't received their earnings at all until next month.

life can be random, business should not.

Post by: SVH on September 07, 2021, 13:58: Maybe, during the holiday they implemented more updates to their systems, and things got messed up. It would explain their downtime people where complaining about earlier. Hope they did not mess up your payments :)

Have to say I really dislike their automated photo rejection software. If you have a photo where the subject is in focus but the background is out of focus, the photo gets rejected while other companies accepts them without any hesitation because a person is looking at it and understands the shallow depth, but this new software they have doesn't apparently.

Better 33 euro cents for each sale at Adobe then the miserable 8 euro cents at Shuttershock I think then when they reject it.
