Payment status mystery

**drivetowin** · 13-01-04

I'm a bit puzzled by my CJ account at the moment

Every day when I log in to CJ my account balance has increased

but if I click on payment status and ask it to estimate my payment each day the amount estimated is going down

and is now below the payment threshold

even though my account balance is well well over the threshold

Is this happening to anyone else - or any ideas what could be causing it - I've checked the extended transactions report and it just shows Capital One (and not enough to explain the difference above) and I've checked for reversed transactions and don't have any

Yes I've got the same thing happening, a low estimated payout and I've only got Capital One extended.

yup me too been thinkin it for days lol ... aint funny when you can't count on getting your slice of what you earned other people ..

Some stuff has gone barmy this month traffic wise but I have concentrated on sending traffic to people that paid me right last month even if it pays lower than the others..

Seems some merchants must think (if they stop whilst "creatively accounting" to even ponder about us !) we take ALL the money as profit and hence don't need it... rather than use that money to generate more money for THEM (ok and us too) the following month..

hey ho their loss too

CJ seemed bullet proof at one time but of late seems to be slipping a bit... come on CJ guys/girls let's get back to basics and focus on US not the merchants so much... if we aint paid right then we can't push it then sales won't happen.

be like a stable full of race horses and no jockey's !

Have you subtracted out your "new" transactions from January?

My account balance minus new transactions from Jan and extended transactions from Dec (Marbles, Beneficial, Citibank Banking) exactly equals the estimated amount.

Duh - I think that's it - I'd forgotten quite how good January has been - thanks Meowmix

Mine is due to extended transactions. Seems the payment status report knew about a load of non payers before they appeared in my extended transactions report.

Next Payment seems to have been calulated now and it doesn't look all that good from where I'm standing.

Something needs to be done about extended transactions.

mine says
This calculation is for planning purposes only; your actual payment may vary.
;-/

Does that mean less?

Yeah mogga, invariably so

just great... marvellous.. fantastic...

We market and pay our bills in advance or or within a few days
we produce results and then sit around waiting to get paid for 30 to 60 days ....excellent business model methinks for merchants

I give up I have lost the will to live.

affiliate marketing is so infuriating a times..
