Hi Friends, Nice to see you all once again.Now am not an active member of Mylot,or my offline schedule is not permitting me to be here. How You all are doing? When I last logged in i saw a discussion,here,introducing a new Money Earning Program to refer people.(Even though its against the Mylot rules)Someone had suggested to put it in task so that we will get more Security. Actually What Security Does Mylot give for Tasks? Is it just the Task Creator is having an account in Mylot and have invested some money in Mylot tasks? Once I had taken a taken a task of UNLIMITED REVIEW WRITING.And there were a reward for one who's writing more number of Reviews,and also for 1st and 2nd runner ups.I sent more than 10 reviews and after 7-8 reviews he had said me am leading in number of reviews.So i made some more reviews.But after that i didn't get any reply from him.I tried to contact him in Mylot also. SOMEONE MAY HAVE SENT MORE NUMBER OF REVIEWS.... But till then he was so encouraging. So friends what you say about it?

You can hit the contact button in the bottom of this page and tell myLot that something is wrong with a task. I did it once : I was waiting since a month to be paid for a blog comment -- a $0.05 -- and the task was still pending. myLot responded me that they had contacted the task creator for my problem. However I waited 5 months more to receive my payment, that I was no more expecting. Because there is no limit for a task to stay in a pending status, there is not a lot of security to be paid for those submitting a task -- if the task creator cancels his/her account or is banned before approving tasks, they will possibly never be paid --, and it is why I very rarely submit a task at myLot now.

All mines have been approved and they are listed in tasks-completed as "approved". I don't remember where was shown this pending task : look the status or the tasks in task-in progress or in tasks-completed. When I have been paid, I had completely forgotten this task, but I don't know if I have been paid by the task creator or if myLot did something to mark the task "approved" and pay it. A reasonable delay to approve a task before it is automatically approved, like in other task sites, would be better.

Friend, Thanks for sharing your experience. And i haven't tried such possibilities in Mylot. But for review writing and al we are mailing our review to the creator and just submitting our email id in mylot after accepting the task. Right? So approval of the written review does not have any relation with mylot but it is all in thr hands of task creator. And apart from it about the rewards he was offering,it was not through mylot but directly to the paypal account. So there also mylot has no role.

Belive that myLot has nothing to do with taks. It is the users come up with tasks and from my experience, I had only done it and didn't continue. For eg, there was one task wherein it was asked to provide our site details, loging details, etc. As long as I am not feel confident in security matters, I don't prefer to reveal any of my personal details to a unkonw person or site. The other person was requested to submit additional details and if provided then only we will get access unless it will get rejected. Though I completed 99% of the job and he denied me to give the $0.2 on that assignment. Also, it is my thought that by providing additional information or personal details, I don't want to earn, where there is no security to our data and we may spoil a great deal of personal details just for $0.1 and I feel NO to such things. Again, on the other side, the requester is need our participation just to them earning and which is not the right way, I feel.

Yeah friend i agree with you. If there is a tadk for register in a website and complete a survey we will have to provide our personal details and we will be entering the details in another website which will have no relation with Mylot. So always its risky thing to provide personal details in the links provided in Tasks.
