Have you ever been slightly short of payout before the end of the month?

Did you ever make it 99% of the way to payout on Mylot only to have to wait till' the month after the next to get your payout because you were slightly short of the minimum payout? I'm very close to minimum payout but i've been slacking and making up for it these last two days. It would be frustrating to get like. 99% of the way there and reach 100% of it in day one of next month which means I wouldn't get any money until the month after! Have you ever been close only to have to wait way longer to get your money on mylot? =p

hi Louie, I am agonizingly close. I am on $9.93 and today is last day. I hope to make out pay out but god knows. I intend to respond to 9 discussions today which i have not done for a long long time now. It was about 9$ last month and about 8.50 $ a month before so you can see i have really not been active in last 3 months. But i want to make payout this month and i hope i would make out as it is only 7 cents left which is not a big amount less mylot says oh so close to payout and trying more on last day then other days so lets not pay him anything today or pay him 6 cents and pay rest in next month account.

I am going through that right now! I am trying really hard to make the money today, but I honestly doubt that I will be able to make it, but that won't stop me from trying really hard.

I'm at $9.79 today! So I have to try not too terribly hard, but a little hard to try to push towards that Mylot payout for next month!

Yes, I have been slightly short of payout couple times before, I hate that... it is like 30 more cents or so to reach the minimum payout... so I always try to do as much as I can to make earnings at the beginning of the month. Because I usually have something to do at the end of the month.

Yeah it has happened to me this month. Well i needed 90 cents more to make payout. The problem with me is i am very choosy about the posts i reply to or the tasks i do. There were enough tasks for the last 2 days of the month of august for me to do so as to complete my 10$. But i just wasnt interested in them. Hence, i got wait till this month end to clear my payout.. Bad luck eh?

Not really as close as you got, but I got to around 7 dollars on my account a few days prior to the end of this month. I am actually a bit harsh on myself for this one because I was a bit lax during the start of this month, hence I only started to work real hard around the middle of this month, making it impossible to make the minimum and get my payout. I am fully dedicating myself to mylot from here on out so I can reach the payout by next month. wish me luck!

Hello Louie, I am sad to say I was slightly little more to get payout! I know it is just not much about the payout, but at least better than nothing. More over it is my goal to reach payout every month. Now that I need very little to go for it but it is already September now. Meaning to say I have got nothing for my pay pal this month. But why not, we can have another side to view. We don't need to worry to much as the earning can be bring forward to next month. And there is always next month waiting for us. Don't be up sat , next month we could have more than the minimum pay out in pay pal account!

Yeah, I try to strive to reach payout every month as well. When i'm active every day I usually make at least $12-$13! This month I haven't been too active so i've fallen behind a lot! Trying to catch up and post as much as I can today since i'm only at $9.79!!

There have been times when I've been so very close to payout and even though I try really hard the two days before the end of the month I still do not make it to payout. However this month I don't have to worry about not getting paid. I've reached payout for this month and then some. I'm just trying to make sure I earn as much as I can for this month as this money could really come in handy.

None come to mind but I'm sure it's happened to me at least once since I joined MyLot last year. But I guess it is one of those things where you can look at it either way as a good thing or a bad thing. Sure, you wanted to get payout this month but if you're that close, getting it next month won't be a problem. What's even better is that, hey, that's one more month to get more money when MyLot pays you. I have had to wait longer to get my money though. That's happened for the past two months I think. I kept forgetting to update my PayPal information and by the time I realized it, the payout date had passed. But this time I should have no problems hopefully.

It did happen in May, as I was really close but didn't have neough, so I had to wait until July to ger paid for June, but it ended up being a good amount, so it all worked out in the end. Since then, I have amde payout before the end of the month. It isn't as much as it was from the month before, but I made it and that was my goal. I am not going to push myself anymore, as I will start out really posting, but once I make payout, I slow down some, as I don't need to push myself to get it then. I love mylot and I am glad that I am here and I am going to stay. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

I have never faced this and that is because I have never reached payout I had planned to reach at end of this month but sadly I dint make it, I often get busy with some other work and can't be active here in my-lot everyday. But it would be really dissapointing if you are 99% close to payout and have to wait another month to get it. 99% close means you have 9.9$ and just want 10 cents more I would rather say you work more hard the last 2 days and reach across 10$ any how!

Hi LouieWpHs, I never had an experience like that before. Last month I got my first payout and I got it 3 or 4 days before the end of July. I can reach it faster because I carry forward my earning from previous months. I reach my payout for this month after today earnings update. So I still reach my target for this month. And I hope I wouldn't have to experience that kind of experience. It is a bit annoying to face it.

Well, I joined 2 days ago, pretty late in the month! I have $1.10 in my account right now (although today I have done a lot on here so tomorrow may see an improvement. I am takingit as a fun challenge to watch my earnings creep up! Now I have got into the swing of it here, and from everyone elses advice, I know that I will try and work hard at the beginning of the month next month to see if I can make my first payout by the end. And if I miss it, well, it just goes to next month, thats fine.

Yes, I also have experienced this few months back. I made about 95%. For 5% I had to wait till the next month. This month I have already reached payout and will be paid.

Yes it happened to me for the first time last month......I think I was short of some dollars..........i was really very busy last month and so I was not able to do any tasks or was able to participate in any of the discussions......but this month I have made it........well I would suggest that whenever you don't make it to the payout don't worry....just take it as your investment.......and probably you get a chance to earn even more than what you really expected......so in the end i am happy with the results..... Happy Earning !!!!
