I have been taking a break from the offers too. Nothing was crediting for me either, but after reading the last 2 pages here, I'm going to go and try some today! :D

Thanks to everyone for your feedback. Keep it coming if you have more to share. I have been reading your posts as they've come in. I appreciate each of you for taking time to let us know your thoughts. Member satisfaction is very important to us at SR, and I want to ensure that I am doing my part to make this a place you want to spend your time. I'll be reviewing offers over the next few days. Perhaps I will have some feedback to share with you that will help increase your sucess in this area!
Well I was inspired but all the posts yesterday saying how they got credit, so last night I went to the Auto Credit thread, did two that many people posted that they got to credit & still no credit....just a FYI....I set up a new email account, didn't have anything but SR open (as JNorth suggested) & still no credit....I tried...and I'll continue to try...but just wanted to report.
Yes, :thanks: so much, Angie, for working so hard on this, with us in mind!Quote:

Another quote, from arob414: "...so I have spent the past several days trying to figure out if something, on my computer, is blocking cookies. I have been checking cookies, page by page, and several offers (modpath, for one) don't seem to leave cookies. This seems odd because I would think that is how the offers are tracked. I always have offers that go into pending but there is just so many, suddenly. And, it could just be that I have deluged the companies with my address and ip and that is why I am not crediting. But, since others, who have been on as long and longer than me, are crediting, I still think that it is possible that one of my software protections is blocking something. If I ever figure it out, I will pass a long the info. I don't think this would be considered cheating, as in figuring out how to "work" the offer, because I think it could be a computer issue that I need to fix. I don't have anything against cookies, just want to avoid something that will screw up my computer or steal shopping credit from SR."
Please do pass on this info if/ when you figure it out! & feel free to PM it to me, as well, especially if posting it is a problem for any reason. I'm really discouraged but/and am always on the lookout for ideas to turn the situation around.
I forgot to mention that for the first 5 weeks or so that I was a member here, I didn't understand how to use the 'Pending' page. In fact, I didn't even know that it existed! I don't know if I'm the only 1, but if not, that might be seriously skewing your #s, Angie, as new folks might tend to sign up a lot, in their enthusiasm, & as bartleby1 said, just quietly drop out, when they get disappointed.
I accept the time expended in doing offers, when they credit, but nobody likes to feel like they're wasting their time.
Just like others have said, I am discouraged by not getting offers to credit. When I first started, I was pretty clueless about cookies and how to get through some of the offers. Now, I clear cookies, every once in a while change e-mails, click on the confirmation e-mails, and check the Automatic Credits thread. Still, my pending list just seems to get longer! I will keep trying, just not as a priority unless I have time.
same here Jen. :confused:Quote:

I know that posting Manual Credits takes some manpower, but perhaps if they posted in some sort of schedule we could be privvy to, that might help? Just a thought....
I have tired of trying offers that do not credit. I have tried all of the suggestions, clearing emails before doing an offer, clearing cookies in between offers, I even reply to all emails that come through after the offers and still they rarely EVER credit. I have tried all but the last of the now or never offers and none of those have credited even though I have gotten the confirmation emails, etc. It is frustrating and not worth the time and energy put into it.
I am really hit or miss with the offers. I read this page a couple days ago, and took a deep breath and tried again. I have internet explorer, Windows XP. My laptop is a few years old, I've been a member of SR for 3 years now.
I ran CCleaner, and made a new gmail address.
And............I got about 5-6 to credit! About $3 in freebies! so, it worked for me! I did a couple more today, and one credited. Some are NOT instant crediting.
This is what has credited for me since yesterday.
