i haven't been in mylot for a loooong long time.
and when i did log-in just now, i noticed my earnings are 0.00.
i remember vaguely that i had about less than 10.00 the last time i checked. well, that was several months ago. but still, i didn't come across any ruling that the earning shall be forfeited should you be gone for a specific period.
but then again, i'm not sure if i read all the terms and conditions.
or maybe there is something else.
can anybody clarify this matter for me please?

Ohhh.. This is indeed sad. Are you sure it wasn't 10.00? because perhaps you should check your paypal account.
I never read anything about forfeiture of earnings as well. But how long were you gone? I have read from other mylotters that their earnings were also forfeited after being gone for a year or so. Perhaps there's something about that in the terms and conditions.
Perhaps you should write Mylot admin about the matter. They had experienced a lot of glitches these past few days perhaps your earnings is one of them.
Have a great MyLot experience ahead!

hi ravi mylot is not a bank so why wou ld people go off here for half a year or more then expect their savingsto be here. this is also in t he paperwork we sign to become a mylotter. so how come nobody reads anything here any more.theydo not read the guideline'
or the FAQ 's or the T OS y et complain if the earnings are
not there. I belong to several survey sites and they do not keep your earning past two months so mylot is generous.it is not a bank
either you like
being a my lotter or you just usei t as a bank which is not'
very smart.

ladydec:
It is as per rules and guidelines of mylot.
as per FAQ:
"http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq6.aspx#21"
where a member is not logging in for 90 days his earnings will be forfeited.
we must remember to log in at intervals say a month so that this problem doesn't arise.

Oh!! That is really sad. I am a new customer of mylot, and haven't earned much yet. My minimum payment is $10 and I am eagerly waiting for the same. If I loose all my earnings at the time you did, I would get very disappointed. I read it somewhere in FAQs that a user should atleast visit once in a period of 90 days. I think you took a bit longer than that. But still I feel, please go through FAQs if there is some provision of getting your earnings back or atleast a part of it. Good luck.

he had e very chance of saving that money yet he did not bother t
o read the faq or guidelines no site will keep money for you for months,they are not banks, if one does not care any more than that why be here at all?it is not sad, the person was warned in the tos he signed. ninety days is a long time , he or she should have come back before then.

That would happen if you haven't been here longer than 3 months? Please someone correct me, if I am wrong, but it was like that before, when I was at Mylot more often.
I have receive 3 payouts of Mylot, but have never missed that long before I leave for an year or so.

I am sorry. But it is as per mylot rules and guidelines
source: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq6.aspx#21
"I haven’t posted anything on myLot for several months. I logged into my account today and my earnings are missing what happened to them?
Our terms of use state that if you don’t login to your account at least once over a 90 day/3 month consecutive period of time your earnings are forfeited. Please remember to login at least once every 90 days. You don’t need to post any new discussions or respond to discussions, you just need to login to your account so that we know your account has not gone idle."
participate well hereafter and earn more and more. good day.

actually, ravisivan there is no need to apologize.
i haven't been to mylot for sometime, and i have my reasons for it.
i am not complaining if my earnings got forfeited. i was just not sure about the reason why.
but now, since you were so kind enough to remind me (and us) about our guidelines, i am pretty sure the blame is mine.
so, thanks again. i would know it next time.

Hello murkie,
Sorry to know this that you lost your earnings here but that's the rule here that one must log in once at least in 90 days otherwise the earnings get ZERO.I always remember it and if i don't remain active here i just log in here once in a week.

hi also in case one is in hospital and cannot sign in have your son or d a ughter or husband or wife sign in your user name to keep
your accou nt open. sometimes crises happen and we really cannot be here but do not want to lose our accounts.

The first responder is correct. If you don't log in for 3 months or more you lose your earnings. I'm sorry! It is in the guidelines. =(
I hope your here more often so you can earn money again!

hi murkie well you evidently were not alert when you signed with mylot as that in the thing you signed it reads you must sign in every 90 days to avoid losing any money you have,you do not even have to post but must keep signed in. also this is in either the guidelines or the FAQ's too. so do read them again and know to sign in before ninety days if you go off again,. If you care so little for my lot that you are gone more than 90 days why bother keeping it open. mylot is not a bank. I think 90 days is pretty darned generous myself.I fail to see why anyone would keep this account open if they care so little to not be on here in months.

Maybe I'm wrong but as fas as I know if you're not active for there months or more your earnings will be reset to zero. That has to be the reason why you have no earnings left. Be active if you can. I love it here.
