I think I'll be losing the free five dollar sign up money

[timetravel]

I only have eight days left and just have 10.56 in my account, which includes the five dollar sign up money.  I don't think I can make another fifteen dollars in eight days unless I actually spend money, which i don't have to spend.  I did a survey today worth .75 cents which isn't credited yet - wasted my time on several tickets for opinions which have never credited...and do the daily 15 cent things and daily email and videos...guess that's five bucks down the drain.

I'm sorry to hear that.  However, just doing the 15 cent daily ptc, and the 2 cent daily email every day would have gotten you to the cashout point before the 180 day limit.  If you don't do offers that require money (many of us don't, myself included), those daily ptc and email payments are very important, so you'd have to do them every day that you can.

good luck in the future

I do not understand.    How long have you been on Fusion Cash?  You do not lose any money until after 180 days which is 6 months.  You are not required to cash out every month.  There are a lot of easy offers to take which credit instantly and pay well.  I always recommend the different survey sites.  They are easy to sign up for.  They credit instantly and pay pretty good.  And each survey site offers their own rewards.  If you are new to FC and not on sites similar to FC, you should be able to cash out in a week or two.   Even if you are on sites similar to FC, you should still be able to cash out in a month or two.  I have been with FC about 18 months.  I have cashed out six times and close to my seventh cash out.  A member should be able to cash out every three or four months without any trouble.

when i first signed up - nearly six months ago - my husband got ill and I had very little time to do anything - it's only been the past month or so that he's doing better and I have time now to work on all this.  That is what happened.  He has spinal stenosis and is now in a wheelchair.  but at the time it hit his back was so locked up he couldn't move.

It appears that you signed up on Feb. 25th (2 months ago), so you still have plenty of time to get to the $25 min. cashout before the offers you've done expire. Keep trying the surveys every day and try some of the daily tasks, found in the "More Special Offers" section. Some of those are pretty easy, time consuming, but easy.

Ice Kitty - what are you looking at that leads you to believe Time Travel signed up on 2/25/11 when she said she signed up nearly 6 months ago (ie in Oct, 2010)?

TimeTravel:  sorry about your home health problems, but that was clearly more important than the $5.00 bonus.
Keep posting in the Forum and you'll get the $3.00 bonus every month -- need 30 meaningful posts in a given calendar month.  Also check out the Forum contests and promotion sections.

I would just keep plugging away. even though its near end of month and you might not clear. You;ll eventually get it.

[timetravel]

thanks - i've done over thirty posts this month but i don't know when or how long it takes to credit that three dollars - i do the daily fifteen cents and emails and videos....i did a survey yesterday that credited .75 cents - i am frustrated over the tickets for opinions, too, since i've done several and not one has credited - even when I've done everything required, including leaving the page open forever.

@swogden.....

You can click on a member's user name above their profile pic and it shows what date they registered.

Yeah it looks like you still have plenty of time left. Where did you come up with the 8 days. Would suck to lose it but just keep plugging away everyday and it won't really make a huge difference.

[timetravel]

well, five days left to go and I'm up to 14.75!  the tickets for opinions finally started kicking in...plus I completed another .75 survey, and a .75 offer!  Even if I lose the five dollar sign up money, I'm still on my way to a twenty five dollar cashout.  If I can do the tickets for opinions daily thats fifteen a month right there...and the daily .15 adds up to 4.50 a month....and the paid email, another .60 a month...and even a video a day... .30 a month - that's over twenty dollars in one month's time right there!  If I keep that up, even if I lose the 5.00, I'll have over thirty dollars by the end of may, more than enough to do a cash out!

@timetravel.........

5 days left to go until what? You aren't going to lose your sign up bonus if you cash out within 6 months of signing up. As I stated in a previous post, it looks like you signed up on Feb. 25, 2011 so you still have plenty of time to get to the $25 minimum cashout requirement. Once you get the hang of it, you'll find that it's fairly easy to get at least $25 in a month.
Keep going....it looks like you're finding plenty of good offers to keep you going.

Keep clicking! Do the PTC and Email daily and it will add up, I promise! Over the last few months I have rarely had time to do much other than the PTC, Email and Vids and with bonuses I just cashed out again for the 4th time on FC! 90% of my cashout this last time was strictly easy clicks and vids, and NONE of it was even close to expiring so keep going, you will make it just fine!  

[timetravel]

@IceKitty: If I signed up in February this year then why does it keep counting down the days next to the five dollar sign up bonus?  Today it shows 4days left!  Feb. was when I started forum posting for the first time, I believe!
Do we have to do anything to get the bonus for the saturday promo after we make the contest entry?  will we be credited automatically?

To timetravel,

Sorry to hear about your husband. My prayers are with you.

As far as your questions go, here is the relevant rule about the sign-up bonus in the FAQs:

"We think that requiring referrals can often lead to frustration. At FusionCash, you are in complete control of how much you earn, since you get paid for every offer you complete. We even give you a $5 signup bonus! You never have to refer a friend unless you want to."

Now in the FAQs, click on "terms of service" in Offers and this is the relevant paragraph concerning cashing out:

"Expiration. Once an offer or bonus has posted to a user's account, he/she must "cashout" within 180 days. After 180 days, offers and bonuses expire and are no longer eligible for payment."

As you can see, you have 180 days after you sign up to cash out before you would lose your $5 sign-up bonus, which is only given to you ONCE the first time you sign up. That 180 days applies to ANY Offers and Bonuses for which you are approved. You can also be sure to post 30 posts in the Forum each month and submit a request for the $3 Forum Posting Bonus, which is a nice on-going promotion by FusionCash and an easy way to help you build towards each cash-out.

Also, try the Daily Surveys, the Netflix offer if you have never signed up with Netflix before, the videos under Special Offers, and the Daily Tasks under Special Offers. The weekly contests run by Kohler on Tuesday and Saturday are also great, along with the Ongoing Promotions run by FusionCash which you can find under Contests and Promotions in the Discussion Board.

My best advice to you is to re-read the FAQs and watch the Tutorials by oldbuddy in their entirety! Also, take some time to follow some of the threads in the Forum to see what other new members have had questions about and to see what the more experienced members have to say about them. There is a great deal of helpful information in the forum! As a last resort: if you can't find an answer to a perplexing question, file a Support Ticket and the Fusion Cash staff will be happy to assist! Be patient and you'll soon get the hang of things.
