Complaint Review: Media Insiders Panel - Internet Internet

On 4/16/2015, registered at media insiders. 4/19/2015 installed on Kindle Hd and IPad. I installed Pc-Connect on 4/22/2014. With the three devices, I am able to get from 50 to 300 points a week. 100 points = $1. At $25 can request PayPal payment. In addition to that, every few weeks they send me a survey request that also pays between 50 and 300 points. The survey usually takes less than 2 minutes to complete and is less than 30 questions.

8/5/2015 I have reached 2500 points, enough to request a $25 PayPal payment ($25 is the only PayPal choice), so I requested it.  8/7/2015 received $25 in my PayPal account. Right now (10/14/2015) I have 1425 points and just need another 1075 points to get another PayPal payment. After 13 weeks of continuous running the app on the kindle or iPad, I should be able to collect another $5 to $10. However, because the kids use the pads they sometimes are turned off for days, do not meet the connection requirement, and do not earn anything for that week. Not a big deal, someday I will earn the extra rewards

The company is good; I have no complaints because they actually pay.

So I signed up for Meda Insiders on 4/19/2015. 20 days had gone by and I only recevied 50 credits for signing up (thats a whole 50 cents). I emailed them letting them know I was confused. They promptly responded back and let me know that I had rewards comming. I was told to refer to the reward schedule.

When I read the thing again, and found that 4/19 was the end of the week and I must have 3 days in a week of activity in order to receive any rewards. Reading further I found that week ending 4/26 rewards do not post until 5/8 and week ending 5/3 do not post until 5/15. Sure enought I looked and was paid according to their active reward schedule.

So for 2 weeks with one ipad (no vpn) and one google tablet, and pc, I have been paid $5.75.

They say if I am connected for 13 weeks in a row, I get a $5 bonus and if the connection is in total compliance, I get another $5 bonus.

So I should have (($.50 (pc) + .75 (ipad) + .50 (total compliance) + 1.25 (android tablet) X 13) + ($5 (13 week consutive connection bonus)) + ($5 (13 week consutive week total compliance)) = $49.

I could earn another $.50 per week if I had vpn on the Ipad but the app cost money and I will wait until I get my first paypal (min $25 to cash out) from them before I buy it.

I expect to have $25 built up in my account 7/3 and another $24 on 7/31. We will see. I will try to come back and let you know

 Not at all :) mistakes happen. i was only saying that somewhere along the line there was a mistake. I know that they are a good company that does what they say. However, it doesn't necessarily mean someone won't have a negative experience in some way. Nobody is perfect so we can expect these things to happen at anytime. I'm glad your problem was fixed. I think the app is worth keeping for the rewards. i've never had too much trouble and i never notice the app is even there. Hope you decide to keep using it. if not, there are other apps out there as well.

Hey, nice to hear from you over a year after my original post! I forgot all about this, so thanks for the reminder. 

Actually, i did get an email from support on the following Monday which said there was actually a mistake--and it was on their end. I did get my reward a couple of months later. I asked about it a month after support said it should have arrived and then again six and seven weeks after it should have arrived. You know what they say about the third time being the charm...

BTW, does my negative experience really take anything away from your positive one? If you're assuming my experience with Media Insiders is invalid simply because you had a good one, you need to go have a couple of seats.

I'm a user of the media insiders app and i would like to say that they are not a scam. since i have signed up i have received a lot of rewards from them. If they told you that they haven't received information then something must be wrong with your phone perhaps. don't know why you wouldn't have gotten their emails but there seems to be a mistake somewhere in your story. You need to make sure that everytime your phone is turned off that you go to the media insiders app and turn on the vpn connection and make certain it's receiving information. This company does what they say they will do. if you didn't get your rewards there was a mistake somewhere. this is obvious even to me.
