Hipmunk Offer :(

[lywb2168]

This one is a hit or miss for me too, I get credit sometimes sometimes it ignores me, it is a bit frustrating but it is not the only thing I do here so if I don't get pay well it is the nature of the system

I got credit again today. Now I did have to try about three times. However, most of the time I don't have to do that. Been consistent for a few days now, so hopefully the trend continues.

That's the point I wanted to make in my long-winded post here (sorry 'bout that).  It's usually consistent, but if it won't credit on the 1st try I will close down and clear cookies/cache and do it again immediately until it does.  It's been worth it.

Gotta clear the cookies first!  After two days of not being paid, I got paid today.  Yea!  I will try multiple time like those who have suggested it here the next time I have problems.  Thanks guys!

For this offer, Clearing cache is a must. Usually it does credit but  still there are days went it leaves me baffled.

I've had to clear cookies and try up to 4 times for it to credit. It's not working as well as it has.

I have been paid for Hipmunk for the past three days.  Hooray!

Hipmunk seems to stop crediting for me unknown reasons. Although, I cleared my browsing history, cache, and restart my browsing. I even tried it on a different browser. Still, no credit.

It has slowed down a lot for me also. Guess I burned the Hip out.

Tried four times yesterday with two browsers, never credited. Did not credit today either. That was an easy repeatable offer, too bad it's not working anymore.

Got credit again today on the first try. This offer used to be inconsistent for me, but for almost a week now has been crediting for me thanks to the helpful advice of others. I've been clearing cookies and doing this offer through Firefox. Also, leaving the page with the hotel search results open until I see the credit in my account helps.

I've been having issues lately too. Is Hipmunk on a 24 hour cycle? That would explain why it seems to work every other day... Maybe I'm just searching before the 24 hour mark. I usually do it 3 times with 3 browsers and leave it all open hoping one of those browsers accepted the search.

I believe it works on a 24-hour cycle.

Hipmunk Hotel Search - 07/21/2016
Jul 20th   $0.35   Approved

I consistently search after midnight (central time), but before 2:00 am (or midnight pacific time).  I've been in that routine so long (couple of months) it's like a bedtime story.  In my example here Hipmunk posts "7/21/2016" as that is the date in central time, but the "approved" is the same date as pacific time.  That "window" of time isn't exactly 24 hours apart, but it is close so the next "posting" date is always moving forward for me.  This works because it keeps me on schedule so I have always gotten it daily.  It doesn't mean I don't have to try it again, but I alwaysdo until it credits.

Something else to consider -- Hipmunk gets a lot of hits from internet traffic users so don't be surprised at the occasional hiccup when you visit, search long enough and wait for that credit (if I don't see it in 20 min. I'm clearing cookies/cache and reloading).  I'm no expert, but suspect the credit slips occasionally due to other users, glitches or even maintenance to the site.  I've seen it load with the hotels arranged differently (like last night) and it didn't work; tried again and the hotels were in single-file on the page.  I received credit within 9 min. from entering site to seeing it in my account.

I don't think it works on a 24-hour cycle. I just did the offer Friday night (after 10 or 11pm EST) and did it again on Saturday in the afternoon. Wasn't sure I would get credit, but I did.

I think it resets as the site resets. For FC, after 12am PST, it's a new day and offers are refreshed.

It would be great if someone would either fix this or delete it - I've wasted a lot of time on this that could have been put to more productive things.....
