Adverbux have just told all their members that because of Paypal clamping down on ALL ptr sites it means they can no longer use them! This will affect other ptr sites too. I'm sure I am NOT the only one here to be very angry about this. Paypal it seems are using bully boy tactics and have got too big for their boots! It's ptr sites and it's members who have made them what they are today and how do they repay the loyalty? They get heavy handed and start getting greedy! Now Adverbux has switched over to Alertpay, does anyone know anything about Alertpay? Is Alertpay similiar to Paypal and is it free to use, there is no monthly or yearly charge is there? I am absolutely livid as I do a lot of ptr sites and I always use Paypal! Anyone else up in arms about Paypal and their bullyboy tactics? Is it greed or what?

I have just done a discussion regarding Adverbux and how they put the cash I requested BACK into my account - well done! I have an account with Alertpay and have been paid by other sites over the past few months into it. However Iam having difficulty using it to make a payment (to Will lol) and am going to contact them tomorrow to see what the problem is. I believe it is a little more expensive that Paypal but I'm not absolutely sure. It worke fine to receive payments for me but as of now I have nevere sent from it. Paypal is sure causing problems though ggggrrrrrr!

Isn't that always the way of it, wolfie? You patronize a certain establishment, and once they start to really branch out-they drop you like a hot potato. I had not heard this about Paypal, and I know absolutely nothing at all about Alertpay. I hope you will find out something positive in this situation.

There are a few sites, including mine that haven't been touched by Paypal. The issue is the huge amounts of money going in and out of these accounts, and the chargebacks they face. Or the site owners are under 18, and Paypal knows it.

After reading all ever one has said. I am alittle upset, becuase I have spent alot of time tring to get invovled in these pay site, and now I am about where I can get payed by most of them. Does all this mean if I do not sigh up for payalert I will not get payed. When the sites payed with paypal that worked great because I sell on ebay, and I only would need one account. But if I under stand right now I will need payalert to omg.
