alertpay. Ok thats fine. Then Alertpay charges me 50 cents to send the money to my bank. Ok I have now paid $1 in fees. This is what really ticks me off. Not one single email from Alertpay when Clixsense sent them my money. If I had not been checking in daily I would not have known. Paypal does not charge me any fees and they send me emails for every single transaction, and then some. Sorry but I am a paypal fan. I hate alertpay. Do you think I am being unreasonable?

hi
It dose take awhile to get to your account
have you verefyed your card account with Alert pay?
your card will have to be linked from within the account , after that it should lock onto the accound and you should get your earnings , If not contact Alert pay and ask them what is going on. they should resolve the problem they usaly check with you by email I thing , but I havent used alertpay in a while , dont know there terms are.

Thanks for advice and I have done all that long ago when I opened my alertpay account. I dont use alertpay that much except sites that dont have paypal. My post was about not receiving emails from them though. I dont have an issue with them not paying me. That would be a serious post then.

Hmm, Paypal does charge too same as AlertPay but those who are in US are happy cos they don;t have to pay the fees. For me, living in Malaysia and I got to pay 3 bucks for every 400 and below transaction from PayPal to my account. More than 400 then is free.
Well, I would say you are a little unreasonable but well, every company got to make money right? :)

I guess not living in the US, I can see how easy it is to see me as unreasonable. Seeing your situation, I guess one should be thankful huh? For me, paypal does not charge me any fees. Thanks for comment.

No, you are not being unreasonable at all sergeantrom. Paypal is so straight forward and upfront about everything in their dealings by sending emails for every transaction - we know exactly where we are with them. And how come AlertPay have to charge a fee when Paypal doesn't?
I too, am a PayPal fan!

Yeah whats up with that? Do they think they dont have to tell me when to expect MY money? They charge clixsense to pay me then charge me to send to my bank. What the heck are all these charges for anyway???? Again, technology technology technology. Even bank of america does not charge those kind of fees and they love sending me emails.

Not unreasonable at all and I do know what you mean. Fees for what holding on to our money as they are not doing anything with it, outside of handing it over. It isn't like they are giving us something from them.
I should be charging them for handling it.

Glad to see most everyone is agreeing with me. Thing is, I was more concerned with not getting my emails than the fees. 
Yet everyone is upset over the fees. True paypal does not charge me any fees. I just cant believe alertpay does not communicate with their members. Not a good sign at all. They cant HOLD our money for no good reason and then give it back to us. Dont get me started on why they seem to hold our money so long with all the technology these days. I think they are earning interest on the money. Funny though when we owe them, the money comes out of our accounts instantly!

I can understand how you feel, I do not like those charges either but I guess that is the way they make more money for themselves. That is why I use Paypal more than Alertpay even though I have an account with them. It is not fair for them to take more from our earning depends on how much we are earning at a time. Have a nice day

Yeah I turned down a few programs too for using alertpay. Soooo glad mylot uses paypal. I do love the sites that give us a choice though. Had no choce at all with clixsense. I dont plan on ever quitting that site so must use alertpay. OR I can pay the three dollar check fee. NOT!
