Had $8.07 on MyLot and is now GONE

I hadn't been able to log in since last year. I switched computers and the email associated with my account was no longer mine, so I didn't have my password.I hadn't had that email for a while now but because I had the password stored, I never bothered to change it. The last time I was in here I had over 8 bucks earned, then last week I remembered what password it could be and sure enough, it was right and I was able to log in. My account is as was before, it has my referrals, my payments and everything else BUT my money owed. My balance is 0.00. How could this have happened and do you think I can do anything about it?

I've been into this situation too in mylot. But my money left in my mylot account is approximately $3. Maybe it won't be restored back because of long term inactivity.

You have to log in at least once in a three month period to retain your earnings so unfortunately you will have to start from scatch, unfortunate for you but it is listed in the guidelines somewhere but welcome back and glad you finally remembered password

Oh man!!! Okay, yeah I don't think I knew this. So yeah I guess I lost it, and boy it was hard work earning that much!! What a bummer huh?? Oh, well I guess I will have to make it back up, I am just happy to have remembered the darn password, I tried so many and in the end it was a very easy and common one I use a lot. DUH!! Thanks for your answer, now I know what happened!

Wow thanks Ellie if not for you, I wouldn't know about that rule or guideline. I will be going back to school this june and surely I won't be as active with myLot as I am now. I have to take precautionary actions :)

lost my moneeeee - on the mylot site
Hi, the same thing happened to me, and unfortunately you can't do anything about it. According to mylot's TOS if you don't log in for 3 months you will forfeit all earnings. It has happened to a lot of people, so don't feel so down, though even now I know that I would've gotten my first payout from them. At least you've only posted 200 posts. I lost 500+ posts.

Your wondering why your earnings were gone. I guess you have forgotten the mylot rules and guidelines. Members must or are required to log in to his/her account once every 3 months (90 days)in order for their account to be active.I guess your inactivity exceeded the 90 days limit in which could be the reason why your earnings were forfeited.

Yes I have to get back to work here making new discussions and commenting on peoples posts. I think last time I had that much because I did some tasks, but I don't want to do tasks anymore since they pay so low. That means I have to type away...thanks for your comment!!!

Once you become in active for 90 days in mylot i think your income will disappear and you will again start from scratch. You should at least log in once in every 90 days for your account to be active. Inactivity for more than 90 day will cause you to lost your previous earnings.

I'm so sorry that you lost your money, but I have found out also that you have to keep logging on to keep it. So I try not to stay away to long.

you have to log in here every month so your earnings will not be forfeited

Maybe it's some kind of mylot policy to keeps users active.

I really don't know where your $8 is gone. I was not active in a year and $0.12 in my account was still remain. Better you write emails to ask mylot admin. Good luck to you.
