    I had one approve saturday evening and one yesterday sometime (wasn't paying attention). SO it's definitely not completely blocked up

    I know a couple of workers who did just what you said and ended up getting a hardblock from Oscar. Yes, you heard it right, HARD BLOCK from Smith for such a petty hit.

    they have a really long auto approval time, almost two weeks, but i do them pretty regularly and i've never gotten a rejection from them, it just takes a while to approve

    I think it's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to scamming the hits. You can only get away with it for so long. All it would take would be someone from here to report you to them and then BOOM. They start checking. Plus if you depend on this money, you don't want to do anything to risk losing it. Although, when they pay you crumbs for so much work I can see how tempting it could be. LOL

    You know a while back I read in these threads that if you make more than $500 in a month you need to have a checking account AND a debit card registered in your payment account. Or else your stuff would stay at "approved pending payment" until the following month. Do you have both? I see from you signature you seem to have made more than that.

    And i have no pity on those people. I am sure they slammed the hits as fast as they could and did about 2 every 5 seconds.

    No possible way to do that legit.

    And people think requesters don't think of these things too?

    Either way, thanks for retracting that statement Russ.

    I don't believe the people making $500+ a month are all cheating. Most of them take on a lot of writing and transcribing jobs that can pay upward of $40 a piece. Also, if you manage to get all of the surveys in every day you can make more than $100 a day.

    Payments have slowly been trickling in over the weekend but as of early this morning nothing has gone into my account. Just approved-pending payments piling up.
