The key change in our reward policy is the elimination of call based rewards. These are the rewards that accrue each time someone calls your Brring number. Standard rewards have been $0.05 per call, with initial call rewards $1.00. We will continue to reward users who invite friends to use Brring and those who help target ads by profiling friends. Those rewards remain unchanged.
Unfortunately during our beta test we have experienced an inordinate number of people flooding the system with fraudulent calls (numbers posted on Craig's List under false pretexts, setting up multiple accounts, etc.). By eliminating the incentive to do so, we will improve the service for everyone.
We will pay all legitimate call-based rewards, including initial call rewards, earned through June 15, 2008. You do not have to redeem rewards by this date, only earn them. Finally, we will be introducing easier ways to redeem rewards more quickly
[/b]so how will we earn now[b]

I saw that email the other day. I know that right now they owe me close to $25 in pending payouts. I am not really sure how we are going to earn after June 15th other than referring people, but it will be harder to refer people if they are not going to get paid per call like before.

I have a Brr-rring number, but not that many people call me on a regualar basis so I haven't made alot of money on it.
I'm not sure how they are going to sort out the legitmate from non legitmate calls though.

Sorry, I havne't heard of Brring.com, But I have experienced disappoint when sites change. I was once a member of a few sites that paid and then now they don't due to people being fraudulent, I think the ones doing it should be blocked from making new accounts and not let the others ruin it for the few that are honest. But they always change. I am so glad that Mylot hasn't changed like that.

Well, I've accumulated about 30.00 with them since I started with them a few months ago. I was using their number for completing offers, and it racked up. I'm still probably going to use their number since it's free and so much better then getting calls at my house on my landline. I do hope that the money we did earn we get to have. Do you know if that's legit or not?

I never signed up to use the service but based on what I have read it looks like the only way to make money after June 15th is by referring new members. I'm sure you all know too that it is going to be really hard to get people to sign up when there is so incentive for doing so. Personally, if it were me I would take the earnings I had already gotten and move on because you are not going to be seeing much from this company anymore.
