What Happened To Palmbux?

It has been like weeks, probably a month now, I noticed that Palmbux isn't loading the pages and consequently accounts can't be accessed. Being a member, for quite a while, I have been checking this site daily hoping that I could get back into my Palmbux account. However, until now, Palmbux ain't online yet.Though I was just quiet about this before, but now I think something is really wrong about it. Then suspicions and doubts now came flooding, not just from me, but also to other members. 

What Really Happened?

Clixsense Offline

There was an announcement from Clixsense that the site would be offline for a day. This is a big deal, not because something bad has happened to Clixsense, but the new looks or rather the new Clixsense will be up soon.

Hopefully, there would be no delays or problems arise. Also, some new stuffs going to be featured, some contests maybe or some gifts. All members might be excited about this.

Clixsense On Google Chrome

The Clixsense toolbar quite had the name after the success of the held Clixsense series of contests with the aide of their toolbar.

The releases were thought to have been intended for Mozillla Firefox and Internet Explorer only. However, as other web browsers are also popular and are widely used, a toolbar for those web browser may be beneficial after all.

So far, Clixsense toolbar is now available for:

• Mozilla Firefox
• Internet Explorer
• Safari
• Google Chrome

Although, the release of the toolbar for Google Chrome would be in a few weeks, this new version could help expand Clixsense around the web.

Clixsense Contest Continues

Seemed like it was just somewhat yesterday when this contest from Clixsense had started. No doubt about it and the contest was finished, but, shall I say the first phase of the contest has just ended. Though the first winner was not so familiar, the contest just proved that Clixsense sure has a lot of money to be given away. LOL!

Anyway, congratulations to the first winner. Mohammad Tarikussaman from Bangladesh, which received $250.00 in to his account. Lucky guy he is..

Just as the first phase of the contest ended, the second phase had just started. Now, it is even bigger and better. This time there will be 10 winners instead of one, maybe that was kind of exaggeration, since these 10 winners will only receive $25.00 which also totaled to prize the first winner had in his account. The difference was it all his. Maybe this time Clixsense wants a few more people to be happy. Not bad being given with $25.00 after only installing a toolbar.

This was a nice idea made by Clixsense. After these contests are done, the winners would be happy and all other else may be eager to have another some more contests. Good luck to all that had joined for this contest.

Clixsense Contest Starts

A few days after the Clixsense contest has started and even so plenty of members are still installing the toolbar. I guess, the prices were very attracted indeed. Here is what has been announced about the still growing number of joiners.

I just hope that everything would go smoothly without troubles. Cheaters ain't gonna be tolerated are others of the like. This might be a good deserving price for the winners. Good luck to all.

Clixsense Toolbar

The other day I had posted about a contest that will be held in Clixsense.com accompanied with some attractive prices. More info about that contest here. Clixsense Contest.

An additional information and a little solution for those using the Clixsense toolbar having some issues with Mozilla browser was prompted. It was about the toolbar not showing up in Firefox. However, this issue has been resolved with the new version of Clixsense toolbar.

There still is one day left before the contest starts. To those aiming for some prices and some bucks, prepare the toolbar working beforehand, so as to maximize earnings.

Good luck to every Clixsense joiner!!!

Clixsense Contest

It was just today when I visited Clixsense.com that an announcement about something new of an earning possibility event that will be happening in the next few days within Clixsense.

It was stated that starting October 15th and ending November 15th this year, any Clixsense member who installs the ClixSense toolbar or had it installed prior to the start of the contest and had it installed until the end of contest period will have a chance of winning USD250.00 instantly which will be deposited directly to one's account. That's pretty awesome.

What's another amazing, is that the instruction was just to use the ClixSense toolbar!!! That's kinda catchy, but the details are in the image below.

Click image to view original size:

In summary, to gain entries all to be done is either:

• install toolbar within duration of contest
• refer someone and have the referral install the toolbar too
• submit an ad of at least 100 clicks to Clixsense

To all the members and soon-to-be members of Clixsense, good luck to everyone of us and enjoy!!!

A Warning From Clixsense

It was just recently that Clixsense made some announcements and some, shall I say, enlightening information. Although this PTC site has been on business for a while now, they still are opting for for further improvements in their website and services - in general, the business.

Here are their advices:

First, they had some issues with proxy servers, and as a solution to that, they would be blocking some proxy addresses in the near future. However, they were open with dynamic IP addresses provided by the ISPs.

And, secondly, they had reminded the members to be careful with PTC sites. Many and so many PTC sites were reported to be bogus and has been tricking people for money. The most important thing between the PTC site and the members are the accounts that connects the two in to conduct business. If these accounts are disclosed, many could possibly happen, and one of the great events would be loss of profit.

The image below is the complete message rendered by Clixsense. This reminder may also serve as a warning to everybody so as to keep their guard up, especially when you care about your investment, business, and information.

This is a nice move from Clixsense. And, the promised more improvements to come is very much awaited, especially to the members. Kudos to Clixsense.

Palmbux Is Down

What happened?

It may not be an uncommon event in the internet, especially when a site is a PTC site, that a website would be down. As of today Palmbux is down. That means the site is currently offline and is not accessible. If you try to access the website, you would be redirected to a different web page although the URL or the website's address is correct. Yesterday, when I tried to log-in to Palmbux, I was denied of access a few times and an error was displayed that there was a Network Error then blah blah.. I thought that the site has been blocked automatically, so I had my blocker temporarily disabled. But to no avail, I was again denied a couple more times. So, I just left it be. Then today when I tried to log-in, although the error message was gone a different web page was displayed (see image below).

Click image to view original size.

On the second thought, maybe Palmbux is under maintenance or construction. If that is the case, what would appear would be a web page indicating the cause. With this page, it would most likely seemed to have some minor problems in terms with the host of the website.

Here are some reasons why the above web page would come out:

• The web host might have some technical problems. (ironically, i think that page might not appear)
• The PTC site might not have paid dues on the web host. (this is usually the case)
• There is a maintenance in the database or transfer to another host. (this is very common)
  
• There might have been some misunderstandings between Palmbux and web host admins and turned out to have the services of Palmbux disabled. (jerk! such a kiddie act.. lol..)

What to do?

Well, as for members, there's nothing much we can do but to have faith and wait. As far as I have remembered, this happened before in Palmbux and to other PTC sites that have been online until today. Hopefully, this would not take long of a time so we can continue our Palmbux endeavors.


Here's what the admin and staffs said:
Why new forum?
Palmbux offline? Don't worry... :)
We are back online!

Similar Scripts

It was just recently that I discovered this new ad that was published in one of the PTC sites active in the web today. I wasn't able to notice right away that this new ad was somewhat similar with another PTC site, until when I was viewing this ad and at the same time I was accessing the other PTC site.

High Yield Investment Fund may be using a similar script with Clix Sense. As far as I have known, Clix Sense have been online for a few years now before High Yield Investment Fund went online. Whoever did business first or is making a lot of money, they both have similar appearance.

Click image to view original size.

It seems that recently, a number of PTC sites have been using the same scripts. Those were usually the scripts being used by PTC sites that have been online for a longer period of time now and had probably stood many difficulties all through out. There might be many reasons why this is happening, may be some of these are security, stability, ease, time, and management.

Here are some points of view I have seen in using similar scripts:

Advantages:

• it is easier to have a ready-to-use script than create a new one, especially when the owner knows less of the coding
• the site can run as soon as possible and make money (hopefully)
• owner will have all the focus on the management side rather than the development side
• the scripts were already tested and proven by the older PTC site(s)
• if the older PTC site has been standing still as of today, then the script might have been very effective and may offer security for members (aside from additional internal coding made personally by the owner)

Disadvantages:

• to acquire the script it must be bought
• the PTC site owner don't know much of the codes or the technical aspects of the script
• it might take a longer time to fix technical problems if something goes wrong unless the owner understands the codes
• the PTC site seems not unique (may be copycat)
• it arises doubts, especially when the previous script user was closed

There is nothing pernicious in using a common script unless it's illegal, especially when copyrights is around. What makes a PTC site robust are the facts that the owner wants a fair game, script is fully tested and is constantly checked, usage of other helpful tools for protection, and taking good care of the networks. In the end, whether the PTC site would last or the other way around, it's the intention that counts.

Bigmoneyptc Is A Scam

It has been more than 2 months since I had personally requested a cashout from this PTC site. It was created in May 02, 2009 and would expire on May 02 this year. It has been 9 months since it was launched and has paid more than $230,000.00, Really? Maybe.. Bigmoneyptc is a known PTC site since it is one of the PTC sites that promised for a payment of $1 per ad viewed. Which, by far, exceeded all offers of other PTC sites around. Sounds good, right?

NO! That sounds very good.. I know right away that this is very suspicious, but maybe i was just so curious or was just trying to do something, lol , so I tried it anyway, so as to satisfy my hard-headed feature.. To make the story short, I made it to having cashout and was waiting for 60 days (the length of time to wait for the cold $1,000 USD to arrive), but not even a cent was sent.

What I did?

I logged in today for the last time and viewed my payment history. No surprise, nothing has changed since the day I have requested this cashout.

PROOFS:

• cashout not given
• no response from staff for assistance
• no other payment proofs and mostly negative criticisms
• owner, admin, and staffs are unknown
• an email which is so much alike with that email of another PTC site

This is weird and is very doubtful. How can two different PTC sites have the same email format, the same content and context, and have the same offer? Look at the two images below and see it for yourself.

Click image(s) to view original size.


Note: Encircled are the differences of the two emails, with date and subject as given.

DECISION:

I'm not going to recommend this PTC site to anybody, unless you're a hard-headed as me. And, I will support those that denounces this PTC site. Bigmoneyptc is a scam, and maybe Grandptc too, which is so very highly possible. Also, I will no longer waste something on Grandptc, I'm really not that hard-headed, lolz..

Qualitybux Cashout Cancelled

It has been more than a month since I had my first cashout request with Qualitybux.

Please refer to this is the previous post for details.
Is Qualitybux a Scam?

Due to delays in the cashout and some not-so-good reviews about them, I was kinda hesitant to continue my relations with this PTC. Although, with my pending request, I was still optimistic about the cashout. When I viewed my account today, I found out that my cashout request was canceled by admin (image below).

Also, the date I have the request was incredibly wrong, since this PTC had just started this year. But, i guess, I still can't get enough.


So, here's what I did.

I requested another payment. And, guess what, although I was inactive, my earnings increased. That's something fishy. Hmmmm, opt to find some info.

Half A Million Money

Palmbux Team, have announced the other day about a very great achievement in the history of Palmbux. I guess, the date is very noted date for all the members, and especially to the Palmbux Team.

Here's what Palmbux said,

Hello dear PalmBux family.

Today, Palmbux reached the achievement of having paid out more than $500,000 US dollars! In a 1 month and 2 days, Palmbux paid out more than $100,000 if THAT isn't an achievement, then tell me what it is.

Without doubts, I can say that this will be one of the most remembered dates in the history of PalmBux!

Congratulations to everybody who have received a share of these $500,000 and a huge thumbs up to those who will soon receive their first payment

A HUGE thanks to the Palmbux family which you, and I and everybody belongs to. And last but not least, a humongous congratulation & thanks to everybody who contributed to make this possible. I am talking about everybody who invested their money and time in Palmbux. You are the ones whom made this possible

And of course not to forget, our beloved admin and staff team, which I have the pleasure of belonging to. And also, An official thanks from me, for being welcomed with such open arms in the Palmbux Team.

Here's the full forum discussion.
16 November 2009 - $ 500000 paid.

This is really one great achievement of Palmbux. With this, it would be an indication that Palmbux is growing and is heading for the better. As members are proud and happy with this event, many also would trust Palmbux as one of the very few legit PTC sites around. Congrats Palmbux!

25% Discount

Today, the Palmbux Team announced of a good news. Well, it is what most shoppers and consumers are waiting almost all of the time. A 25% discount. It is a discount on renewing the refs you have. Hmm, that sounds interesting. Why would that be given?

Here's what the team said,

Sv Investor added

And, this is the post I thought I already have posted. When a friend asked me about what I am talking about in my blog about the new added account in Svbux, I searched for this post but, to no avail, I haven't posted this yet. Anyway, this is about the newly added account in Svbux called Sv Investor.

Here is what Admin said,

As we promised...
It is not finished yet, but small things like new statistics will be added due the Beta Phase.

Investor Account - Benefits
Sv Investor is a new account membership for the users who really want to invest and get the best benefits here on SvBux. Please note that this is the BETA version of this membership, so we will be fixing bugs and adding some new features during this BETA phase, which will last from 4 to 7 days. After the BETA phase, all users who purchased this membership will receive a full version of the Sv Investor membership, which lasts for 365 days!

Price:

• 349$ by PayPal Limited price -the discount ends after the official version is launched.
• 299$ by AlertPay Limited price - the discount ends after the official version is launched.

Below are the benefits:

• Vacation mode - 30 days
• AVG statistics of rented referrals and direct referrals dating back to the last 15 - 30 days.
• Two new queues: standard and express. You can buy 200 refs for each queue.
• New referral package of 200 refs!
• Rent referrals every 4 days!
• Time before waiting for the next cashout is just 3 days.
• View 100/200/300 referrals per page.
• Rented referral limit is 5500.
• Direct referral limit is 150.
• AutoRecycle - 10 days of inactivity.
• AutoPay Minimum Days Limit- 10 days
• More statistics.
• Lower prices for AutoPay, Recycle and Renew -included already in FAQ.
• New rank on the forum and more functions. These will be added during the BETA phase!

Please report all bugs and problems by sending a support ticket or starting a new topic.

And one more thing, the limit of renting referrals is 2000 as it used to be but from now referrals from Jackpots are included in.

Here is the full forum discussions and comments.
Sv Investor is here!

This is a good move by Admin. This newly added account would give a much greater benefactor to members with this membership as higher earning potential and benefits are featured.

Server Downtime

There was a server downtime last October 20, 2009 at Palmbux. Many people got worried, but not furious, about what had happened. After the server have recovered and is online, The Palmbux Team posted a thread in response to what had happened the other day. Many were glad that Palmbux is back, and showed full support with the team. Many also were disappointed with had the hosting provider did.

Here's what the Palmbux Team said,

Hello,

Last night the Palmbux - Server was shut down by our Hoster. Unfortunally we reached the Bandwith limit for this month, just 5 hours before the new paid month started...( the server-month is allways 20th to 19th of each month!

It´s unbelievable that the Hoster stopped the Server, just for these 5 hours... We pay alot for the server - and the new month was already paid - so normally there was no need to interrupt the service...

We are really very disappointed with this hoster - and now we´re gonna change to the new server asap!! The new Server has a lot more Power and unlimited data-transfer. So this won´t happen again. The actual server was back online on midday already - but, to make it fair for all users, we decided to let the Site offline till 0:00 hrs server time.

So, the Site was off for 24 hours - all users will have one day added to their refs and memberships. Also, all users have the necessary clicks added, to be credited for your refs clicks today!!

We are really sorry and apologize for this issue !!

But - we didn´t even think that our actual hoster would treat us this way....

Anyway - all those server-issues of the last weeks will be solved with the server-change and the new Version V3 - probably in 10-15 days!!

Greets & sorry!!

Your Palmbux - Team

Here is the full forum discussions and comments.
Server downtime 20th October

It is a very great decision to move to another server. The upcoming V3 of Palmbux is a much awaited. It is just about 10 days to 15 days wait for its launch. Many are excited about this and just can't wait to have this. If we have these kind of Technical Support, then these new features will be a lot better than the previous.

Is Qualitybux a Scam?

Qualitybux.com, what is that? another PTC site? Is that a scam?

There are many people also who are not sure about what is going on with this PTC site. Whether this be another "trying to be fix bugs and close" site or a "can't maintain pressure" Ponzi scheme?

Here is what Qualitybux says, "your cursor makes you money".. huh!?

Now,

I have found a very nice post that proves this site is not to be TRUSTED! Here's an excerpt from the report:

After careful review, we are adding QualityBux to our Scan List and here are our reasons why:

1. Payments Stopped! - As of today the last payment proof that has been posted on Aug 31st. It is now Sept 6. Also we requested our payment and have yet to receive it!
   
2. Forum Is Now Censored - When they do this, the site has gone scam and it is usually too late. Forums get censored because the number of complaints. However QualityBux would like to make you think that the reason is totally different than that.
   
3. Poor Upgrades - For a site that calls themselves "Quality"... there are numerous complaints about the quality of services this site is giving it's upgraded members. In one case a person was terminated after they had to file a complaint with Paypal since support at Qualitybux was not responding to any of their inquiries..
4. Poor Customer Service - Members complain that staff seem to be avoiding them and not responding to them.
   
5. Site is New - Take extra care with new sites. They can be here one day and gone the next. Make sure you test the site out before you purchase upgrades, and never invest more than what you can afford to lose. This site just came out of preLaunch mode.
   
6. Whois Private - Owner is hiding their identity. Could it be a privacy issue, maybe to combat spam? We doubt it. There are other owners who do not have these issues and do not have their whois private.

Here's the complete report. PTC Investigation.

And,

Here's what I did..

I did ask for a CASHOUT just recently, actually, October 07, 2009.. Payments are supposed to be instant, but a few days past and still nothing from my cold money. I can say the PTC Investigations have their points crystal clear for Qualitybux. I guess, everybody in Qualitybux are f*cked.. :lol:


This is one of their banners.

NOTE: I don't recommend anybody to this site, until I receive my payments. I think that's fair.

What is Inovabux?

I have found this new PTC site named Inovabux. The site has promised some good deal, and so far the site is growing and getting great, although it is on it's pre-launch stage. And, promises were delivered successfully so far.

What was it all about?

Here is what Inovabux says:

Is Bigmoneyptc a Scam?

Bigmoneyptc.com, what is that? another PTC site? Is that a scam?

I have seen a lot of people who are not sure about what this site is all about. Whether this be another "too good to be true" site or a "mission impossible" money making scheme?

Here is what Bigmoneyptc says, "At BigMoneyPtc, we go beyond the expectations of your typical paid-to-click website. We cater to those who are looking for maximum earnings for their time. We know your time is valuable and we are willing to pay for it! The process of earning real cash with us is as simple as browsing the internet--which you are already doing! You will earn $1 for every link you click and $10 for every site you join through BigMoneyPTC. In addition to that, we will also pay you 50% of your referrals' earnings!"

Now,

I have found a relatively nice post that proves this site is not to be TRUSTED! Here's an excerpt from the report:

"Big Money PTC is a PTC site that we are putting on our Scam List. Their PTC program claims to be different from the rest. They try to make it appear that you will earn big money and this is for the serious investors. We believe it is all smoke and mirrors and this site is a big risk to investors who are thinking about investing in refs or membership packages."

Here are our reasons why you should think twice before you invest there:

1. Ties with a previous scammer - Yes, that's right. Looks like this site is one of "Michael Pratt's" creation. The owner of DingoBux, a known scam site. Any site with the name of Michael Pratt or GPTNetworks is doomed and bound to be a scam sooner or later..
2. No Forum! - Again, sites that don't have a forum, is a big fat clue that the owner doesn't care about feedback or discussion about his site.
3. New Site - As of today, the site has been up for about 2 weeks. And yes, we are aware that all PTC sites have to start out new. However, sites that are new and are untested for at least a year, members need to be extra careful with. Especially if it has ties with a known scammer. Site Creation date: 02 May 2009 23:06:20
4. Whois info private - Most of the time when a owner tries to hide their whois info it is a sign that they want their identity hidden, just in case they decide to close the site down and scam their members.
5. Too good to be true - If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.

Here's the complete report. PTC Investigation.

And,

Here's what I did..

I did ask for a CASHOUT just recently, actually, October 06, 2009.. I'll just wait for 60 days process for it to be cold money. I can say the PTC Investigations have their points crystal clear. And for me, I'll be updating this post for any further news. Whether damn good or super damn bad. :lol:
