IS is In...

I did the redeem trick and it looks like everything has been added to my balance: Mod bonus, IS and the credit for first reviews. My Advisor bonus is marked January 31 which I assume is for January. (Makes sense, eh?) But yeah. Lots of stuff under the redeem button. Well, I mean various payouts, not necessarily lots of $$$!

Edited to change a word...

RE: IS is In...

yep I saw mine too. I was expecting it to be way low based on the hits being down and it was lower than last month but not as bad as what I was expecting. Since things have picked up again hopefully next month we will be fully recovered.

Thanks to whoever got all this out so quickly this month. What a nice surprise!

RE: IS is In...

Wow - that was early. I'm not sure why IS was able to be run before the 4th - I thought it couldn't run before then for some technical reason.

In any case, mine is low. Lower than it's been in quite some time. Sort of expected, I guess, but it still stings a little. Good thing the firstie dollars were included or I might really have fainted!

If it includes everything . . .normal dollars for me.

If it does not include Advisor dollars . . .two or three bucks more than normal.


Big fun . . .big bucks ...not.

I believe in the past we've been told it couldn't be run until the 3rd. I wasn't really expecting it today with the work they've been doing behind the scenes this week, so it's a pleasant surprise.

It's also my lowest month since September, but it's not down that much from October.

ETA: I sure am going to miss that first review bonus next month.

Mine is the lowest since last February. Let's hope it's just a one-month drop.

Not if you are one of the 20 winners, you won't, especially if in the top three!!

Ya never know!!

IS and all, is right on the mark. Ya know, we complain much about issues with this site that could/should be better but I gotta say that even with a little fluctuation in IS each month, Epinions keeps those dollars rolling and gets it out to us in good time as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks folks!

January has typically been my best IS month for several years. It is again this year, but it is only 60% of last year's record January IS. Considering the loss of hits, I'm okay with the number.

My IS has been trending up just a bit. With less then 100 reviews, and no new reviews in at least a year, it's not a large amount. But, it's been noticeably higher than what it had consistently been the last few months.

RE: IS is In...

I must say very impressive. Even though worried about the outside hits, IS was up at least 10%. Very very good. However they are doing it in Brisbane, Props :)

RE: IS is In...

My IS improved over Nov. and Dec. (which were way down) by about 40%. It was nice to see some recent reviews paid out more than 2 cents - one even paid $1.01!

RE: IS is In...

I had a pretty good month, but travel reviews tend to do better during the beginning of the year and I have a lot of those. They aren't generally big earners individually, but they do add up.

I have virtually the same situation. While January IS is the highest for the last year (31% higher than Dec) it is 65% of last year's record Jan.

But then, I've long held that they ran IS twice last January in error.

Still, you won't be hearing any complaints from me.

RE: IS is In...

Hmmm... Judging from the responses, I seem to be the one lone IS-Loser this month. I guess you guys are all getting my missing dollars.

RE: IS is In...

Mine looks a little better than normal. No dollar(s) increase here. More like about 50 cents more.

So everything is in then?

My overall cash out is going DOWN every month steadily ... I know that EPS has some super, uber secret formula to it, I really just wish someone could tell me what I was doing wrong :(
