Hi I have reached the point on Sizzlefizzle where I can request payout for the 2nd time now in about 1 month. The problem? They haven't paid me for the first one yet! The site says to request payment at $15 and it is paid in the first week of the next month. I requested in July and still haven't been paid, which is a shame as I want to request again. I love the site and have lots of fun and really don't want to stop using it. The thing is that I have heard that some people have been paid, so why not me? Has any other members had a similar experience with them, or have you been paid?

Yes, the same thing has happened to my friend too. She had requested for a payout in June. She was said thet she would be paid in the first week of July..But till date no payment is made. She has stopped using the site for the past 1 month. If the time and effort is not paid, then there is no worth in visiting a site again, unless you are there for fun. And I will let you know if she gets paid..

Hi Smilyn Thanks for your answer, and it has confirmed it for me. Doesn't look like I will be getting that money. I could ask for second payment now to as I am at $30. The annoying part of the site is that they have no forum now, and when they did I was unable to register. I think they were fazing it out. If they had a forum, I would have been able to ask others on the site. Maybe it was full of people moaning they hadn't been paid. The second annoying thing is that I sent them an email a couple of weeks back to enquire why I hadn't been paid and I never got any response back from them at all. Oh well, one of the main reasons I try all the sites is to review them in my blog, and I am going to be updating my sizzlefizzle one soon, so they will be getting a bad review. If they had bothered to contact me, it may not have been so bad, but to get no response at all, tells me one thing.... SCAM!! Please do though let me know if your friend does get paid as I would be happy to update it again to say they are slow at paying but get there eventually.

One more important thing is that if you use yahoo mail account, add their address in your contact list. Otherwise their mail goes to spam list and gets deleted. I can help you with more tips through a personal message. Accept the invitation I had sent.

Thanks for the add. Will be interested in your tips. I actually got a response from them this morning after sending them a further email, mentioning my blog reviewing sites and other reviews I will be writing, and they were very quick getting back to me. They have said that I am supposed to send in details to them, including photo ID and further ID so they can release the money into my paypal account.. I am seriously smelling a rat over it all. They wanted photo and date of birth, full name etc!
