Another way to make a little extra cash for our Disney funds

I just realized I have been uploading my toys in the category of Baby and Kids instead of Toys. :( Do you think that will make a difference? They are both ten dollar categories, but I didn't see the toy category.


I wouldn't worry about it. Even if they moved it to the toy catagory, you'll still get $10 since they are both $10 catagories. :thumbsup2
 
Has anyone else been paid for their $10 reviews? I was totally confused when I checked my earnings tonight. They had my toys under $8 :confused: each at first glance I thought that I misunderstood the $10 thing- :surfweb: :confused3

They apparently pay ALL videos the bonus base pay of $2 and then the ones that qualify, get a catagory bonus of $8 :yay: ------ After I stopped and thought about it- it was kind of funny but at 12:40AM- nothing is as clear as it may seem when you are well rested :idea: :scared1::dance3:
 
About how long does it take for a video to be approved or denied? I really want to see if one gets approved before I go and make a ton of other videos. I uploaded on Saturday and still have it pending. Thanks for all your help!
 

I would like to know, too! I uploaded 5 on Saturday 7/21 and none of them have been approved or denied yet. I am waiting to make sure I am doing it right before going crazy with it. How long do I have to wait? Should I just go ahead and keep going with it now? I see some August videos are already approved/denied...what about mine from July???:confused3
 
I've still got 40 or so pending from July. They are from 7/29-31. Then I have 34 or so August, also pending.

Waiting, waiting for them to move some over!

I want to review a few toys that are still in their boxes, cause I haven't given them to my daughter yet. They are things like Barbies, so I feel I can speak comfortably about their quality, and describe the price and thinks the set includes. Will Expotv allow that?

The site says that they are approved in order of being received, but that has not been my experience. I just had three approved yesterday- one from July 29, and two from Aug 4, but I still have more from July pending. :confused3

I wouldn't worry too much about it- I think they are just backlogged from last month, and trying to sift through it all. Also, with the website acting so goofy at the end of July, maybe it jumbled the reviews around on their end.

Maybe you could start making reviews for August, so they are all ready to upload once you get your approval? The main things it seems to watch for are good lighting, no background noise, and make sure the product is still being sold. That would save some time once you do start uploading.

Good luck to you!!
 
Just wanted to report that I woke up today to have 98 videos approved for July!! Wooo Hoooo...DH is still at 64 and his vids were ahead of mine at one point. At least I know they are trying to get them all reviewed before they send out payments.

On a sour note....I had such a busy weekend with work and errands that I did not get 1 video recorded and had planned to at least get half done, so thats a little stressful now.

Anyway...:wizard: heres to everyone getting the rest of their vids approved.
 
i uploaded 2 vid last night, and their status is:
recived/not available
processing video/not available

usualy it goes to pending/preview right away for me. anyone else have this problem?

Yep, me too. I uploaded 3 vids last night, and they have not gone to pending yet. I wondered if a lot of people taped this weekend, and uploaded last night.
 
well... i woke up to an interesting rejected video reason this morning. as usual, I checked if any of my July pending videos have been accepted, and I noticed yet ANOTHER rejection (my 6th now) for the So Sexy Nourishing Conditioner for Dry, Damaged Hair review I did. Apparently another member of my household reviewed it. Now, I'm fairly confident that my boyfriend had no ambition of using the conditioner with hopes of getting an idea of the product and then reviewed it behind my back. So I'm a little peeved that they gave such a stupid reason. I have reviewed the SHAMPOO of the same line, but have done other shampoo/conditioners with no problem. Which isnt the reason of rejection anyway if that WERE the case. Needless to say, I sent them a (polite) email saying that I wasn't quite sure why they rejected it, especially under that untrue reason. I even said I understood they are bogged down with lot of videos to go through. This was their mistake though, so I hope the take care of it. It seems like they may be rushing to get everything done and perhaps are being more careless with reviewing the videos. Just my opinion. I understand why my other videos wernt accepted, I had to show pictures in my destination, and Im actually glad they were rejected because now I did them over correctly with the $10 rate instead. But this one seems weird :headache:


well I got an email apologizing for their mistake and was credited for the video :thumbsup2 so e-mailing them with problems definitly pays off. Another thing I dont quite understand was I was rejected a review I did on the Ariel Storybook snow globe because they said it cant be bought nationally (understandable) but then they went and accepted the little Mickey Mouse ears hat, and a beanie stuffed animal of Minnie Mouse dressed as a mermaid, both which I def. explained were bought at WDW parks :confused3 Im not gonna complain, but it seems weird that they didnt accept the snow globe. But anyways, all my videos went through for July now, just gotta wait for the paycheck. Down payment on Disney World here I come!! :goodvibes :goodvibes
 
Do they send emails when they approve/reject videos? Or should I just keep logging in and checking my video page? That's what I've been doing but I don't know if I need to be if they will be sending email notification.
 
My phone company that I have my high speed internet through is changing our email provider. So I have to change my email address. I am not happy! :mad: So anyway, my question is - do you think it will cause a problem getting paid from expotv??? Here's my situation - I just joined expo about the 3rd week of July. I got about 65 videos uploaded in July. So far about 22 have been approved. I haven't been paid for anything yet. I probably won't get paid until the end of August for July, right? So if I go ahead and change my email address this week and then change it right away on my expo profile and on PayPal, do you think it will be alright and I will get paid? :confused3
 
I tried to upload on Fri afternoon and then again today (Mon afternoon). On Fri I had no luck whatsoever. I just ended up with a "page cannot be displayed" screen. Today it is taking FOREVER!!!! I'm still waiting for the first one to get uploaded. What is the deal??? :confused3

I kind of thought with the big push for the end of the month over, I would have less trouble getting my videos in. I think it may be worse!!

Is there a better time of day to do this?

Yes, so far I have gotten an email for every video approved!

Why dont you just get a yahoo email and then change it on expo and add it to your paypal acct? Thats what I did so it would all go into one account for me and DH.

There system must be having problems because I don't have previews to any of my videos I have uploaded today and usually that happens right away. :confused: As far as the uploading speed, mine have been slower than usual but not at an aggravating speed yet!:surfweb:
 
For those of you who were paid in july about what date did they pay you? is it always the same or will they pay just whenever?
 
I just got my last July video approved. That means all 100 were approved!!!!:banana: :banana: I've already got 37 done for August and 3 approvals for them. Good luck everyone with your approvals. :goodvibes
