Hello Friends This is what i got when i logged in today : [b]IMPORTANT MESSAGE ANY MEMBER WHO IS OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL NO LONGER SEND YOU A CHECK FOR UNDER $50.00. TOO MANY MEMBERS ARE WRITING IN SAYING THEY CANNOT CASH OUR CHECKS. IF YOU RESIDE OUTSIDE NORTH AMERICA AND CURRENTLY HAVE YOUR ACCOUNT SET TO CHECK WITH A PAYOUT THAT IS LESS THAN $50 YOUR WITHDRAWAL WILL NOT BE PROCESSED. PLEASE SETUP AN ALERTPAY ACCOUNT TO GET YOUR WITHDRAWAL OF LESS THAN $50 OR RAISE YOUR MINIMUM PAYOUT IF YOU WISH TO CONTINUE TO RECEIVE A CHECK. Thank you[/b] So no cheques under 50$ for users except North America. Well i don't mind as I am only using alertpay as a cash out method.. But it will be problem for users who used to get cheques from them.. As 50$ is quite big total to cash out from any ptc sites. Is this gonna effect the site reputation ? I guess not much.. How about you?

I dont think it will make a big difference since now many users seem to be cashing out by AlterPay, I have chosen to do this after they added the option and im living outside North America.

Yes... its true.. I wasn't active on this site either.. But after they have put alertpay as cashout again i am using this site.. So changing in cheque system will not effect much. But it can effect some people who used to cash out via cheques as alertpay is not option for their country..

That could indeed be true, but then the question would be how many would be affected by it. I believe that Clixsense must have looked into how many outside North America used to cashout by cheque.

Well clixsense is good. So i am sure they will do something about that.. But hope they will able to get success in adding paypal as cash out. It will be great option to have paypal as cashout.

I believe most Clixsense users outside US have opted for Alertpay already. And hopefully by March when Clixsense launches the new site, they will be including Paypal and Liberty Reserve as additional payment processor.

There was an update before by Clixsense announcing that they were given the 'go' signal by Paypal to use it as payment processor despite the current 8-level compensation package. From the update, it was mentioned that they'll integrate that with the new site.

What? Of course, this is going to affect the site's reputation since reaching payout for regular members would take years---and for only $10. And yes, there is a big problem encashing checks. Depositing it would take months. It's like torture! And now it is giving its members this problem? Why doesn't the site pay through Paypal so members who reach $10 will easily get paid? Reaching $50 for regular members is going to take around 30 years....believe me. So is it worth it? You'd be old and gray before you get paid that amount. That's funny. I'm junking the site fast.

Yes they should provide paypal.. But they still having alertpay and we can cashout using alertpay with minimum 10$.. So this will create the problems for users who are used to cashout via cheques.. 10$ still their but for only alertpay.

I am not anymore concerned as I left after a month, when I saw that I would need more than a year to reach $10. I joined after they offered Alertpay. It was impossible for me before, as my bank begins to take $20 before converting a check from dollars to euros. At $10 Clixsense would have been a negative earner for me.

is a normal thing: i myself i live outside north america, and i'm not american. so, to draw a check is long and time-spending process... and a note: i not have a clixsense account, just because i do not join to sites who pay exclusively by cheques. maybe is time to reconsider clixsense... thanks for the hint!!! ;)

Well you can still use alertpay.. I guess to reach 50$ is very hard. So we can use alertpay which having only minimum 10$,,

Yeah they changed the Cheque payment for people goods as many people below $50 amount were having difficulties to clear their cheque.anyways we have the Alertpay option and one can get the amount into alertpay.
