MyPoints, BzzAgent, and MTurk - Oh My!

I do mypoints, but I'm not getting any emails like I used to from them. Anyone else having this issue as well or is it just me?

I had been doing really well at finding hits to do on MTurk, but they've really slowed down recently. I'm sort of upset about it too, because I was making a good bit extra. Anyone have any tips for me?

As far as bzzagent goes, I'm supposed to be doing their Pledge Fabric campaign, but I still have not received my bzz kit. Anyone else?

Now that you mention it, I haven't received any mypoints links in a while.

I haven't joined any of those. I thought about doing mypoints or swagbucks

I do Mypoints, and havn't had any problems getting my emails. Did you somehow accidentally mark one as junk or block the email? I did that to Gather before without realizing it, and had to go in and remove it from my blocked or junk list.

I am on 3 bzz campaigns right now.

CG lipstain, Floridas Natural OJ, and today I just signed up for one for Glade.

actually, now that I just went back to my email for a moment I realized that I haven't recieved any Mypoints emails for 3-4days. Which is weird for them, I usually get atleast 1-2 a day.

I still get mypoints mail and I like Mturk but I just haven't had the time to sit down on there....too busy at gather maybe? LOL

I did get an invite for that pledge bzz campaign but would have had to use a golden key so I passed on it.

I don't have my pledge kit yet. This morning I got a Glade campaign.

I love mypoints too. Yes, they have slowed down for me too. Right before Christmas they were swamping me and I loved it. I think that the companies were wanting to get in those few extra dollars.
I'm a bzz agent too. I just work it the way I should.

I'm not getting nearly as many MyPoints as I used to. I used to get at least a few a day and now it's down to a few a week.

I haven't received any new Bzz Campaigns. My last one was the Game Wave and that ended in January I think. I had an offer for Pledge but at the cost of a key.

Amanda, no fair! Florida's Natural is my FAV. OJ.

I get about 5-7 emails a day from mypoints. But I used to get MUCH more. Seems like everything is taking more work and giving less back these days... :(

I have not been getting as many mypoint emails lately either. I am not familiar with MTurks. How does it work? I have been a member of bzzagent for 3 months now and still have not been invited to participate in any campaigns, so I don't have any advice there. Thanks for posting.

How does the golden key work?

I was having the same problem with mypoints and then I have checked spam floder in my email and there they were. I don't why they are coming to spam folder, because before they were coming to the inbox. So try to check your spam.

Bzzz agent, hmmm. I am memeber of them for about year maybe a little less and I have never got any campaing from them.

I'm down to fewer MyPoints emails and mTurk hits, too it seems. Oh well, more time for my website, photos, and gather, I guess! =)

Sarah (I want points) Feb 18, 2009, 3:08pm EST

Interesting. I checked my spam folder. All mypoints bonusmail were going there all of a sudden. I didn't even change anything.

My Points emails seem normal to me. I'm about 100 points away from a $10 GC.

I'm waiting on my Chilis bzz kit.

I haven't been on MTurk lately, though I do believe I have an account. I was having trouble with them actually putting money from my account in for Amazon purchases, though...

I've been with MyPoints for over 2 years. Sometimes I could barely keep up with their emails-they've slowed quite a bit with the economy.

Shannon W Feb 18, 2009, 3:36pm EST

I'm not with Mturks but I have noticed that MyPoints has slowed a bit

Sophie S. Feb 18, 2009, 3:44pm EST

mypoints emails have stopped for me too, not sure why. And I have been way to busy to use mturk since Christmas, but the slow down might have something to do with the economy. I have found that a lot more people are doing things themselves rather than paying people to provide stuff.

Mypoints were real slow for a while but the last couple of days I've been getting more. I'm sure it's the same as everything else - cutbacks on advertising due to costs. Bzzagent.. I RARELY get good campaigns, although I am waiting on teh Chili's bzzkit.

Sorry that I can't help with Mturk. I did receive my Pledge campaign stuff from Bzzagent on Friday. Hope yours has arrived.

I'm almost ready to cash out at Mypoints great site and getting e-mails regularly. BzzAgent am going to be very busy with my recent joining of campaigns.

I received my Pledge kit on Saturday but have been so darn busy I forgot to open it! Ugh! Thanks for the reminder!

Marilyn is looking for whatever there is. N. Feb 23, 2009, 11:36am EST

Hmm, that happened to me once with mypoints and you can either wait it out, or email them and see what they do - they'll usually do something about it as I've been getting emails from them right along.
MTurks I've never heard of -- till now, so that one I don't know about.
, I didn't get offered a Pledge Campaign! I am doing the Plum card and the Glade one though. So that's really more than enough. Good luck with it all, Krissy.
