Are you using TamperMonkey or GreaseMonkey? IIRC in FF GM wont be compatible w/ a ton of scripts that rely on any of the old TM/GM functions.

using tamper monkey, it worked like one month ago. for some reason it stopped working. did not changed anything, same windows same stuff.

I wear leggings and a nice oversize shirt with a sleeveless mock turtle in summer and a full turtleneck in winter with some kind of scarf - black or black print leggings, black or white shirt, the top underneath and scarf provide the color - Keen 'Rose' sandals in summer, boots in winter - I'm into the Fabletics leggings I think SB still has the offer of two pairs for $24 and you get that back in SB credit. It's easy and I'm always put together.

Thanks for the idea, I haven't been on SB in a long time, I'll check it out.

Don't be afraid to find someone to help you. This can be a way to make fair money if you learn how to find the right work. I'm lazy and just do whatever but other ppl here are great.

Lol, honestly my favorite work so far has been the "hieroglyph transcription batch work." I've been able to plow through 100 of those in about 35 minutes. But since I'm at the 100 limit until my 10 probation days are up, that's all I can crank out currently.

You might want to focus on surveys the first few days. They tend to pay more. You can get your numbers up once your probation is over. Or fill up your 100 at the end of the day with fast batch work.

Yea the last couple days I've done the "bonus" survey marketing research. That's brought me up a decent amount as far as earnings. The batches are just a nice way to finish out the limit for the day.

Okay am I understanding this correctly. Amazon put money into people's payment accounts and people withdrew that money and then they got hit with a negative payments account? But today the balance is back to zero?

To my understanding it was also those that had money in their accounts. But those who got hit varies. Someone I know got hit by it but I didn't.

 

[MinkyMona]

Was it money people legit earned or did they accidentally give people extra money and then take it back?

If they had money in their amazon payments account, that was money they earned. I believe.

No. We put money in our Amazon Payment accounts, but tried to cash out. The cashout didn't work and said to try again later. Well, people tried throughout the day. When it finally started working again, all of the transactions went through including the ones that were "unable to process"...which resulted in more money in our bank accounts than we had in Amazon Pay. However, the balance of our Amazon Pay accounts were then in the negative due to the error. Amazon decided not to pull the money back out of the accounts (probably because of all the fees involved and the multiple transactions), but they also don't have a system in place with Amazon Payments, to accept payments back. So, as my husband likes to say, "Someone made a 'decision tree'," and decided it was more beneficial to just zero out the accounts and not worry about recouping.

 

[MinkyMona]

Oh okay. I had a WAH company years ago who accidentally gave everyone an extra 100 dollars into our bank accounts and they never took it back. It's legit been at least 7 years. Guess they don't want it back. They never responded to me when I asked them how I could send it back to them.

I know how you feel. I always transfer on Thursdays and that was the one week that I didn't. This month has been rough for me financially, so I can't help but feel at least a little jealous. But whatever.

I am sorry. It does seem unfair.

Yep lol. I was at a negative balance, and I was slowly adding to it to get it out of the negative balance. I woke up this morning and I was out of my negative balance. But the negative balance literally was not my fault. I was trying to transfer my money to Amazon Payments, and it kept failing so I kept trying. I had no idea it would duplicate my transfers. It's been stressful to say the least

You could always start a pyramid scheme.

So sometimes Siri gets the statement wrong when I set a reminder and I figure I will remember and don't bother to redo it . . . I am flat out stumped today!
