AllAdvantage - Are YOU Being Scammed?

Are YOU being scammed? Is YOUR MONEY sitting in AllAdvantage's bank earning them interest?

AllAdvantage are refusing to pay me for my cash earned by using their viewbar, up till November 2000. Is the same happening to you?

I wrote to ask them what's going on:

Why hasn't my payout for November been done? I was well over the $40 at the start of December:

Ending Balance From Last Month: 50.73

What's going on here, why hasn't this moved into Payout Details?

Payout Details
Date Description Amount
no payouts to display

I should be getting that $50.73!!

There's no way I'm going to be waiting two years to get my next payout that's not right, nor is it fair for the money I earned before November, which should have been moved to 'payout' at the end of November!!! :( :( :(

Their response to this was less than satisfactory. In fact, it was downright rude and lazy - instead of checking into what I'd said, they told me to look at the page that I'd used to e-mail them the question!

To determine whether you are eligible for a check, please log into your account page under https://www.alladvantage.com/cashsecure.asp

I wasn't impressed. Where on earth do they think I got the information in the original e-mail, in the first place?

In November, the payout total was about $40. My money earned at the end of November was about $50. (I'm sure you can tell me the exact amount for Australia)

Why isn't that getting paid out?

Why should I have to wait till I get $96? At $2 per month, that will take YEARS!!!!

I earned the money for November, so I should be getting it!

Why aren't you sending it out? :(

I thought that this time they'd go away, do a little homework (and actually look at my account, or something!), and get back to me with a reasonable statement as to what was happening.

No such luck.

You are currently enrolled in our Win on the Web Sweepstakes program, this is why you see "not applicable" next to "Payable time" on your account information page.

WTF?! For on thing, there is no "not applicable" next to the "Payable time" on my account information. It says "10 hour(s) 0 minute(s)".

They didn't even look, which makes me very angry.

I don't believe that after letting them use my web page viewing statistics (which is what I was getting paid for), that they should be treating me in this way.

And as to me being currently enrolled in "Win on the Web"? My account says "This month you are enrolled in the alternative rewards program. Next month you will be enrolled in the alternative rewards program."

I am not enrolled in their "Win on the Web", nor do I want to be. I was very careful to avoid being involved in that. I don't want to gamble all of my earnings away, thank you so very much!

They didn't even bother to get off their backsides and check why I am not getting paid my $50.73 ... and even if I *was* involved in "WOW", then I'd STILL be expecting my payment for money earned up till the end of November!

AllAdvantage is beginning to sound more like AllScam to me, at this point in time.

I earned the $50.73, and deserve it to be paid to me.

I do not expect them to cheat me out of this money, and fob me off as if I was too dumb to know what on earth I was doing with my own account.

I hope that all of you who use AllAdvantage will check your accounts, to see if they're THIEVING you out of YOUR earnings at the end of November.

If they're doing this to you, maybe you will have more luck with their "support" than I did. Good luck people.

And to you who have never used AllAdvantage... I suggest not bothering until they clean up their act again.

It used to be great. I used to get a cheque every so often. It used to be a well run site.

But it seems that AllAdvantage's time is over, if this is their attitude to people who earn THEM income. :(

I no longer endorse AllAdvantage.

NEW 4/1/2001: Guess what they've done now? They've removed any trace of the $50.73 on my account, and only rolled over $2 from last year! AND STILL NO PAYOUT and NO RESPONSE EITHER!!!
