Egold, 17SurfPro and Surf7Daily, The Ultimate Surf, Babblz

Egold was down this morning, causing payout problems for autosurf sites.
Admin of 17SurfPro and Surf7Daily is allowing members to compound until 8am tomorrow.

Update from The Ultimate Surf:

Hello All

Apologies for the lack of communication again. Situation still similar to how it was the other week. A little has has been returned to TUS and most of this has been paid out. I amde several alert payments last night and will hopefully make some egold payments tonight. I struggled big time yesterday to get into egold, but hopefully egold will be more accomodating for me today.

I am doing all I can. Once returns come back, some gets reinvested and most gets paid out. This is all I can do.

I am still here plodding along, hoping things will get better. Not going anywhere!

Regards

Nick (TUS)

Here's a site called Babblz which is similar to reddit or digg, but is for parenting information only. Cool. That fits my parenting blog. Will give it a try.

TrickleDownCash, The Ultimate Surf, Mr Ten Percent, ClixSense

TrickleDownCash has completed their server upgrade. Members should submit requests to get credited for any missed surf days.

Here's the latest from The Ultimate Surf:

Hello All


I have made some payouts today. Not HUGE ones. Some of the returns I get back get paid out and the rest gets re-invested. That way capital is always working. The last thing I want to do is pay ALL out as it comes back in and then run out of funds.


I will state again: I am not going anywhere. No intention of closing up and no intention of stopping paying. Still a large delay, but I am STILL paying what I can.


Someone asked that I send updates twice a week, and that is what I will do. I won't promise fresh news each time, but I will communicate all the same.


When paid, it is VITAL that you post that you got paid. People need to see payments are happening. This will alleviate some the fears that TUS members have at the moment if they read payments are happening.


Thanks,

Nick (TUS)


MrTenPercent's update:

LAST UPDATE 24TH MAR 0930 SO READ IT ALL AGAIN



SITE DOWN FOR EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE.
WE CANNOT EVEN EMAIL YOU TO LET YOU KNOW YET SO UPDATES WILL BE FROM HERE

WE WILL EMAIL YOU ALL AS SOON AS WE CAN BUT THE HACKER WE HAD LAST WEEK DID
MORE DAMAGE THAN WE THOUGHT. WE THOUGHT HE WAS AN IDIOT BECAUSE HE ONLY ALTERED THE HOME PAGE
AND CHANGED LOG INS SO WE WERE SOON ABLE TO GET BACK IN. LURKING THOUGH WAS A BIGGER PROBLEM.
YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, IT'S ALWAYS BLAMED ON HACKERS. YOU WANT TO BE THIS SIDE OF THE FENCE!

SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE BEEN AT OVER A YEAR WITH FALSE STARTS AND TWEAKING TRYING TO GET IT RIGHT
FINALLY COMES TOGETHER AND WHAMMO!

DO NOT EMAIL US AS WE HAVE ENOUGH TO CONTEND WITH AND SORT OUT
WE WILL NOT EVEN BE CHECKING EMAILS AT THIS TIME

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CO OPERATION

TONY & IAN

Our Mr Hacker has done more damage than we thought, he left us some presents.

THESE WERE IN THE CONTROL PANEL AND
SHOULD NOT HAVE AFFECTED THE MEMBERS LOGGING IN
BUT WE URGE YOU TO SCAN YOUR PC ANYWAY

We will be down AT LEAST all weekend, possibly longer but even then the prognosis is not good.

We have NO EGold to payout with, SCAM SCAM SCAM. Yes we know. We cannot stop that being said. It is worth more to us to keep this site going than to shut it down. 0% of 0 is still 0. Whereas 5% of turnover is good.

We DO have some investments however and we will have to see what happens when the dust has settled whether continuing to function will be viable. Most of the current investments had just paid out and we were about to reinvest when this hit. THE TIMING WAS EITHER COINCIDENTAL OR THE TROJAN CHECKS THE BALANCE OF YOUR EGOLD AND ONLY ACTIVATES ABOVE A CERTAIN LEVEL. POSSIBLY A LATER VARIANT OF AN OLD TROJAN

We do not believe that the investments we are still waiting for would be enough to keep this site running without operating as a PONZI and if that is the case we could be forced to close because it is illegal. Most of the investments we are waiting for are the higher risk type and may not happen anyway.

WE HAVE TO DECIDE WHETHER IT IS FINANCIALLY VIABLE TO CONTINUE THIS SITE AND FUND IT FROM OUR OWN POCKETS. WE WOULD NEED AT A GUESSTIMATE, AROUND $80,000 INITIALLY TO COMPLETE OUTSTANDING CASHOUT REQUESTS AND MAKE NEW INVESTMENTS. ONCE WE GET THE SITE SAFE AND SECURE WE WILL BE WORKING OUT THE MATHS AND THEN LET YOU KNOW. We will keep you informed as always and hope to have SOME good news after the weekend. Heres Hoping.

Please post this message on the forums

Sorry for the long, lazy post. Just trying to catch up on some stuff.

The Ultimate Surf, Solid Trust, Dolphin PTR, Every Man's Monitor, Blog Submittal

Nick at The Ultimate Surf is still hanging in there and is urging members to do the same. He has no new news on the money he is waiting for and is just trying to be patient.

Solid Trust, a private program, is thinking about changing terms. First option is to become a MutualFund Investment Group where members need to submit tax info. Second option is to become a Subscriber Advertising Club, no tax info would be required, but upgrades would expire. This option may include a nominal monthly membership subscription fee. It would also include these benefits:

1) your personal SolidTrust email! you@solidtrustgroup.com
2) personal or business webspace on the SolidTrust servers! http://mybiz.solidtrust.info
3) FREE personal/business online daytimer and organizer account
4) FREE website templates and website management scripts
5) Preferred Member status at the new SolidTrust Auctions site when it is ready (20% reduction on all fees!)

Well, I'm not submitting tax info & I'm not interested in paying a membership fee.

I joined another PTR. This one is called DolphinPTR. $3 min payout by paypal, 10% referral commission. They also have paid to signup offers. Emails are 1 or 2 cents.
BTW, today ClixSense has a couple 5 cent offers. This site really adds up fast.

The new EveryMansMonitor has now launched. If you are looking for new sites to join, check it out. The is one of the few reliable monitors out there. If you have a site you want to advertise, check out MyRandomDownline. Your site will be advertised at the forum and at the monitor site. $6 a month, so it's pretty cheap advertising.

If you have a blog which needs more traffic, try this site for a huge list of sites to submit your blog info to.

TopGunTraffic, The Ultimate Surf, ClixSense, 9PlanetNoSurf, ProfoundHits, Parent Talk

Received payment from TopGunTraffic and reupgraded.

The Ultimate Surf has been able to make a few payments, but is still waiting on invested money to come back. Nick is still hopeful things will turn around.

So far ClixSense seems to be a pretty good site for PTC. Every time I login there are new ads to click on. Surprisingly enough I have .72 already. With PTC that's quite a bit. Some sites pay so little per click that it takes forever to earn any kind of balance. I think minimum payout here is $10, so it shouldn't take too long to reach payout.

Today was 9PlanetNoSurf's best performing day in its short 13 day history. The surge in upgrades was inspired by members now being able to have 4 concurrent upgrades.

Checked out the Profound Hits thread at one of the forums & apparently I missed the update Robert had posted at the site. Basically said he was shutting down, but keeping a copy of the database in case a miracle occurred & he was able to make payouts. Won't hold my breath.

In case anyone is interested, I have launched the final installment in my blog series. This one is a parenting blog which will talk about all my adventures in raising my son and the tips and tricks I've learned along the way.

Martin, 12by12Daily, The Ultimate Surf, 9PlanetNoSurf, Peter Pan

Got a strange message, from Martin of the old 12by12daily forum. Long message, gist of which is he put together a forum to reunite old members of the 12by12daily forum. Also sent a link to his online moneymaking opportunity site. I think that was why he sent the email in the first place. He's building his downline using members of the old forum. I might sign up, just to see what he has to offer.

The Ultimate Surf is still behind in payments. Nick is still optimistic it is just a delay.

9PlanetNoSurf is doing extremely well. If you're looking for a reliable site. This one is it.

If you like to eat peanut butter, as I do, better check your cupboards. If you have Peter Pan with a number on the lid starting with 2111, save the lid, toss the jar. It may be contaminated with salmonella. I just bought a jar about 2 weeks ago. Opened it maybe a week ago. Last Sunday, I had stomach problems but just thought it was a stomach bug. Wednesday night I woke up with severe stomach pains. I ended up vomiting. The next day I read about the Peter Pan recall. Every night I eat a cracker with pickled garlic & peanut butter. I can't say for sure my jar of peanut butter was contaminated, but the lid number did start with 2111. I don't usually have stomach problems either. Just a bit of a coincidence. Needless to say, I'm not eating anymore. Here's a link to the press release.

TrickleDownCash, EzSurf-n-Earn, The Ultimate Surf, Surf Warrior, TopGunTraffic

Upgrades at the old TrickleDownCash have been turned off. Payments will be made as upgrades expire, even if payout is less than $15. The new TrickleDownCash has launched & is ready for upgrades.

Check out this link for a poll as to what the admins of EzSurf-n-Earn should do.

Apparently The Ultimate Surf is behind in payouts due to money being tied up with an investor. Nick says not too worry, it is just a delay. Either way, I'm out of this one due to my new strategy to not linger in one site for too long.
I decided to join SurfWarrior and TopGunTraffic with min upgrades. SurfWarrior is a new site opened by the former admin of the Gladiator Surf sites, 13% for 9 days, min upgrade of $5. TopGunTraffic is 13% - 15% for 10 days, min upgrade of $1. The longer you stay in this one, the higher the daily ROI gets. Interesting, but high risk.

If you're into green tea, check out this site for a free sample. Green tea is rich in antioxidants & even helps in weight loss. 4 -5 cups per day is a good amount.

The Ultimate Surf, Treasure Trooper

Woohoo, just got fresh egold thanks to a payment from The Ultimate Surf. The minimum upgrade here has been changed to $5, so I'm not sure if I'm going back in. Gonna take a look at Every Man's Monitor & see what site's are out there. Note: The Ultimate Surf is doing fine, just part of my new strategy, don't linger in any one site for too long.

So I signed up for Treasure Trooper not too long ago. Payouts are done monthly by check for accounts with a minimum of $20. There are a ton of paid to signup offers, tons of free ones. According to the forum, there is a trick to getting credited for all the free offers. I guess I haven't figured out the trick yet, because I haven't gotten credited for any of them, except for the survey sites. Last night I moved on from those & tried one of the trial offers, stamps.com. I've signed up for a trial from stamps.com before through Inbox Dollars. It's a really cool site. You download software & can print out free stamps or shipping labels. They were giving away free scales. It wasn't clear whether they still were. Anyways, I signed up, but still have to download the software, 21mb. Soon after I signed up, my Treasure Trooper account was credited $15. I now have a balance of $21. Very cool. Look forward to getting a check next month. Now I just have to remember to cancel my stamps.com trial sometime within the next 4 weeks.

My Random Downline, TrickleDownCash, The Ultimate Surf, Amazon, ICE

The forum part of the MyRandomDownline network is now open for posting. It's really nice. I like it. A lot of familiar names, comfortable atmosphere. Discovered a couple of new blogs to read, Agent725 and The Muckle Blog At Many A Mickle. I used up the rest of my egold to upgrade in My Random Downline, so we'll see how it does.

You can now find all updates for TrickleDownCash at the safelist forum, as admin would rather post there than send email updates. Personally I prefer the email updates as I just don't make the time to go to forums.

The Ultimate Surf is raising the min upgrade to $5 and adding a 3% fee for AlertPay upgrades. "No other upgrade will have any fees, and there will be no fees for withdrawals."

As you can tell by the Amazon banners, I am an Amazon affiliate. Checked my account last night & I've made $14 so far. Not much, but it's something. Better than surfs and it's legit. It's also a site I use quite frequently, good variety, reasonable prices and free shipping over $25.When signing up, you do have to supply a tax id. I don't mind here though, as I know it's not a scam. There are several payment options, Amazon gift certificate, direct deposit or check. The first 2 options require a minimum balance of $10, the last requires $100. Payments are now going to be done monthly too. You can create links to specific products, banners, search boxes, or an astore. They now let you download videos too. Pretty cool.

Just read this in Prevention magazine, if you have a cell phone, add a contact entry with a couple of emergency phone numbers and name the entry ICE, which stands for In Case of Emergency. Apparently medical responders will look for this entry when there is an emergency.

My Random Downline, Surf7Daily, DanishAmericanSurf, The Ultimate Surf, Solid Trust

At My Random Downline, you can now add your referral links. Pretty cool. Seems to be a good variety of sites, personal sites, blogs, surfs, cash shopping etc. They will also be giving away $200 in cash and free memberships in February. Offical launch will be in a few days, Wednesday, January 31st. The forum is now open though.

Payouts at Surf7Daily for January will start February 1st & will span a few days. That day will also be a bonus day with roi set to 7%. Sounds like a good day to join, if not a member.

Admin of DanishAmericanSurf is in the hospital due to 2 blood clots in the lungs. Payouts won't be done until she gets home, a week or so. I'm not in her sites but hope she has a speedy recovery.

Last day to upgrade at BigDaddySurf using cash balance is February 3. Admin is committed to making payments, although there has been no real money upgrades in 3 weeks.

At the moment The Ultimate Surf is low on egold and would like to know if members using egold are willing to take payments to AP, STP or ebullion. Personally, I prefer egold as fees are lower than the other processors.

February 1 is surf n earn day at Solid Trust. Sounds like the stocks they have funds invested into are doing very well.
