Videos - Don't make us LIKE you on facebook to get paid
« on: January 30, 2013, 10:24:02 pm »
I thought the point was the advertisers were paying for us to watch their ad.  This is similar to a commercial on TV.  It is really aggravating that they now want us to LIKE them on facebook before we can collect - after we have watched the ad!

I think FusionCash should make a new category for companies that pay you to like them on Facebook.  That way if you don't want to do that you can still watch the ads for pay.

Not surprising anymore. A lot of companies try to bait people to "like" them for some type of incentive, which is why the numbers on certain companies online are so inflated. As to the ads here there are some that still allow you to "skip step" so you don't have to "like" them either.

I don't really like that either, but I guess if they are going to pay us there needs to be something in it for them.

Yeah it's ridiculous. I only watch the ad so I can get paid. If I wanted to like the company, I'd go to my Facebook and like them on my own. Being forced to like them make me not like them!

I agree and I'm very particular about who or what I like on Facebook. I stick with the ones I don't have to share or like.

You can always like them and then go on back into your Facebook account and unlike them later on.  I have just went on facebook sometimes and they have given me credit, without liking them.   Must just depend on the mood of the credit god!  LOL

Yeah, I agree, especially if you don't have a Facebook because you found Facebook to be annoying in the first place!!!  :BangHead:
I just want to watch the video to get paid, that's all. Yeah, I will like your company if you pay me, but if you don't I won't like you....lol

Kind of like a co worker that you really don't like but you have to try to pretend like you do just to keep the peace. lol

If it says something about participation I don't bother with the video. It's not worth cluttering up my facebook especially since the few times I tried it, it didn't work anyway.

I avoid the majority of these 'like' videos because I've noticed that most of them don't credit even though I follow the instructions to a T. The only ones on my video list at the moment are the 'like' or 'referral button' videos and I'm ignoring all of them. Tried each one 2-3 times and they never credited. So annoying.  :angry7:
I agree! Even after 'liking' them on Facebook, the videos dont credit. It is just a waste of time.

I usually like them and then unlike them once I get credit.
