Consolation Credits for Receiving NO Credits?

[fatecreates]

I've done many offers that haven't been credited, but the only one that bothers me is the elite dating site one. i only signed up for it for the credit, as i'm not in the market for nasty dating sites. however, no credit, just a bunch of inappropriate emails and misleading emails that take me to a *bleep* site. good thing i was smart enough to use a different email address than the one i check at work.

Yes it is annoying. Frankly my clicked and not credited is starting to look like an index at the back of a book
However that being said I can agree with the admins that it is almost simply impossible to give we're sorry you didn't qualify credit. Yes there are some survey sites that do this <sorry it's against the rules for me to name them but they are out there> but the difference is they are straight surveys no other offers, no daily tasks etc. FC has probably the most numerous offers in both type and quantity that I have found. So you need to take the good with the bad :-

 My advice-
               1. always clear cookies before logging in to FC
                2. Be patient and persistent . I have found that even if it says immediate credit, on weekends it may be as late as tues before I see the credit

Well, if you weren't genuinely interested......?

Okay, here's my two cents worth. Oh wait, this is actually ten cents worth, isn't it, hehe Wow, nobodies ever paid me ten cents for my thoughts before, let alone two cents.   

Some facets at play here. I assume FC is aware of their advertisers, whether it be for OFFERS or SURVEYS, aren't you all? Couldn't there be a RATING feature in play here on FC like they use on EBAY. When a "bad apple" shows up, and a user doesn't get paid, the user is able to RATE the advertiser. Too many bad ratings, and other users will know before stepping in what to expect (or not expect) before being burned themselves. It seems to work on Ebay, because you wouldn't want to do business with someone who has a lot of negative votes, right?

Anyway this could work on FC? I'll leave it to the Gawds that be to decide HOW to do this, and/or if they see it as feasible. But at least those NOT getting paid as they should, would have the last laugh, as they influence how other users participate down the road. And at the same time, maybe advertisers will take heed that they are accountable in this manner, and pay up as they should.

Just my ten cents worth - I paid my dues!

ok this thread seems to become a really long one....
I understand the pain and frustration of people not getting credit for offers and surveys. I myself have experienced it many times. I also understand that from Admin's perspective this is not a practical thing. At first sight 'to ask for a compensation' does look like too much to ask for. Non - crediting offers/surveys are a big concern for a majority of people here. I think -

1. Even after following the tips to make surveys and offers credit, if there is a particular survey which has received continuous complaints of not crediting, with proof of the survey being completed, then the admin needs to rethink. 
2. The compensation need not be 50%. I know of sites that offer upto 8% as compensation if there is enough proof of the survey being completed. I think that is not too much to ask for. Now that is value for time.

These are just my humble thoughts keeping in mind that FC was free to join and has a fair amount of bonus and promotions.

Hey Admins, to the post I made 2 posts ago (above), I was out hunting around right after that. There's a website (competitor I'm sure), who does exactly what I suggest - a rating system, right on the ads/offers. It's called Unique Rewards. I hope you won't hold me accountable for posting a company name, but I wanted to reinforce my suggestion to do this, because another company IS doing it! They have a 5 star rating program for each offer, and the ability to leave a COMPLAINT right on the ad. How slick is that! I hope we can do something like that here, if we don't already.
