Is this fair?

Been away for a long weekend with no internet access. Arrived home Sunday afternoon at 1500 checked my emails and read a mail from DINGOBUX which arrived at 0950 my time stating that:- DINGO C--P BUX has changed its TOS if you are a standard member and have not clicked in the last 24 hrs we will zero your balance you must click at least one ad a day to avoid this OR wait for it UPGRADE!!! They go on to say Lets thank almost all the standard members for letting this great decision take place I was never asked to make this decision I am spitting mad as I had a reasonable amount in my balance. There was no warning and to do this over a weekend when people do go away is I feel to say the least very very unfair. Just think you could have spent a small fortune on refs from the site and the balance they had made for you is gone? I will not click this site again and I hope all standard members will do the same the sites need our support I think this admin is the same as earn3 which changes its tos every other day Mad in Cape Town Jim

I think that this is really unfair. I would message them and let them know that you were out of town, perhaps they will be understanding about it. If not you could always suggest that they have an away setting, this means that when their users have to go on holiday or whatever, they can freeze their account. You might want to check into that and I would like to wish you luck. Hopefully you can get things straightened out.

Try to visit GPT Networks forum and you will find there how useless to reason out with the owners. It's not worth it.

Never spend money to make money online, unless your opening your own web business. I do not understand why people would dish out money for a site like this. I am seeing that many people are losing money to their money making schemes. It is unfortunate the afformentioned site is screwing with you, but with a name like DINGOBUX I would have expected it to, minimally, have the potential to be very scammy. This is not how a site should be run. How did they get member approval at all for something like this? It is bizzar to say the least. Do they expect people to really get online EVERY SINGLE DAY?

I would definitely delete my account from that site. If they were going to do such a thing they should have given at least a month warning. I don't understand sites like that. I'm sure it is their way of not having to pay out to many of those who are nearing the minimum payout (if there is one). I don't use this site so I don't know anything about it. I'm sorry to hear you and others have been done this way by them though.

That's terrible! They should at least have given everyone a warning ahead of time. Just taking away everyone's hard earn money with no warning seems like a scam to me. I've heard a lot of bad things about this site (and also about Pratt), so everyone should stay far away!

i felt dingobux was cheating in this way because we earn daily cents and some how manage to get into dollars and suppose due to some urgency we never check for one day then they will make it zero in that way company will need not to give amount to cusomers and they can earn more while give very less in this way i think this is cheating only
