I did not write the title it isn't my thread  Wink
I do not think it is a scam. It pays me regularly, however it pays far below the amount I should be getting (according to its own metrics). I am looking for somewhere else to move my 1,000 - 10,000 clicks per day.



instead of posting here, have you contacted their support yet about this problem ?

Yes of course. The only reason I posted here at all was because I got no answer from support.
Also if there is a problem then posting here will be helpful to others.

When I checked the site today, it appears my balance has been reduced to zero! (I only had about 0.06 or something in there I think, as I withdrew everything else a few days ago).

Definitely something up with the service at the moment, it isn't running as it should.

Yes I am getting regular payment, still not matching the amount it is reporting I am earning though (as detailed above). Admin is apparently working on it but not heard anything for a week or so.

then why this question "scam"? Smiley

have they even paid anyone recently?
after all the owner changes and tariff changes etc.
also almost 90% is bot or a/s traffic, so what advertiser in his right mind would spend big on such campaigns?

I got paid out for accumulated earnings just yesterday. Have you done advertising with them to make that statement on traffic quality?

I have just sent a support ticket, hopefully this will be addressed soon.
I am getting very large discrepancies between the amount of clicks it tells me I've received, and the amount of BTC I'm being paid.
For example for the last 3 days coinURL has told me I have received 5k+ clicks and earned around 0.008 per day, however my balance has only been increasing by around 0.002 BTC. I've screen grabbed it all and told coinurl support I can send them the grabs. I know I am not using click farms or anything, and all of my links are genuine. So hoping this will get resolved soon - it seems I should be able to use coinURL quite profitably, as long as I am actually paid what I am earning.

Funnily enough the other thread about CoinURL where I raised this issue previously, seems to have been deleted?

Yep it's a scam, there are threads about it everywhere on bitcointalk.
Just do some google and they are all over the place.
Bolded up the false information where you failed to provide sources or arguments to provide a ground for the statement.

You know, just to clarify. Smiley

No, newbie idiot, it's not a scam because people fail to understand how they work and post their own crybaby threads all over the forum. The 'pending' payments aren't confirmed and there is no guarantee that they are valid views that follow the rules of the service in such a way that would result in you getting paid. They're reviewed and if something seems sketchy about the hit you will not get paid, simple as that.


I contacted them, the site is run by a french goofball and couple Russians. You're a god damn retard either way.
Insults won't get you anywhere.

Here's the deal.

I use their service - I'm happy with it.
If you aren't - don't use it. Adfly works if you want link shorteners that pays in USD.

Bottom line it's their service they can do whatever the hell they want, as much as you can chose not to use their service.


Well if you act like a retard you're gonna get called a retard, retard.
I'm acting like a retard based on that if you don't like the service you don't have to use it?
Ignorance is bliss, I suppose.



No you acted  retarded by calling me an idiot, and then you acted more retarded when I called you a retard, and now you're acting even more retarded failing to recognize why I call you a retard, which proves my initial point.
That you're a god damn retard, retard.
Don't get me wrong, if you weren't acting like an idiot I wouldn't have called you one.
The whole point was that you spewed out false accusations with no sources of arguments to provide a solid ground for your statements, all with a newbie account and no credibility.

Spreading false facts on the internet just because you're butthurt?
That's what I call an idiot. Smiley

No need for any of that. Have you ever actually used the service or just going on what you've found on google? Actually love all these people calling them a scam, not because it's true, but because it means that our competition won't earn the money. Never used the URL shorten feature and it seems that a lot of the complaints stem from that. Frankly, they should get rid of the URL shortener because the people trying to earn money from it are scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Yesterday we had 250 pages in the status of "Pending".
250 pages x 20 lines/page x 0.00000050 BTC = 0.00250000 BTC.

Today we have only 40 pages in the status of "Pending".
40 pages x 20 lines/page x 0.00000050 BTC = 0.00040000 BTC.

Difference: 0.00250000 BTC - 0.00040000 BTC = 0.00210000 BTC.

August 9, 2014, 07:59 Earning Interstitial ads - 0.00022906 BTC.

If 0.00022906 BTC / 0.00000050 BTC / 20 lines/page = 22 pages.

Result: 250 pages - 40 pages (in Pending) - 22 pages (Paid) = 180 pages disappeared.

180 pages x 20 lines/page x 0.00000050 BTC = 0.00180000 BTC underpaid.

Why? It's not normal ... SCAM?

Also I tried contacting support but it's dead silence from them...

Cant say if they are scam or not. But they are very bad for web publishers. I stopped using them at the end of 2013 and shifted to a-ads.com. a-ads offer a far decent service IMO.

small amounts * several days = big amounts

Example:

180 pages per 7 days = 1260 pages

1260 pages * 20 * 0.00000050 BTC = 0.01260000 BTC = 7.44 USD - only from one user.

Nice economy...

It is a matter of principle, not money.

They're only small amounts. Nothing to worry about that much. At least you're getting something.

Don't expect support to reply instantly. Wait it out for some time.
