OT: ChaCha

[momof1princess]

I'm feel bad for you all that are getting question so slow. Mine are coming fairly quickly a couple a minute. I wonder why some people get ?? fast and some get them slow. I finally made a hundred for the month I never thought I was going to get there. Next month my goal is 300.00

you're definitely in the minority. i haven't seen anyone else, on here or in the chacha forums, with b2b questions. my questions are coming in about 2 minutes apart.

chacha is being shut down in 7-8 minutes for scheduled maintenance to resolve system issues! maybe the issues will FINALLY be fixed! or perhaps this is the end?

 

[Mom2micayla]

I wanted to make sure that ChaCha and I were on the same page and that my pay stayed at .20 cents/question.

Well I was making the $.20 on the con. pay yesterday. But all the sudden I'm down to $.10. And of course I can't get into knowledge base to file FB. Ugh, I'm so fed up with them!

Oh, PLEASE let it be fixed. It's not worth it if the questions aren't coming in back to back, that's really only the way to make decent money.

Are you able to see you account today? Mine will not load

I really hope this fixes it I don't count on the Money but was trying to do alot of the Christmas Shopping thru my ChaCha and it has been so slow that it is getting tough.

Me too! Except I got an email today saying that my consecutive pay was a mistake and I didn't qualify. That is not right because I've made top guide every week since the new way started in the summer. I'm not happy.

Off and on I can.

OK, I think I'm about ready to officially be done with ChaCha. Look at this email I just got-

Mandi


After reviewing Guides who were included on this week's Continuous Pay List we discovered an error in calculations. In addition to completing 800 searches over a four-week period a Guide must maintain 95% Quality and Completion for three consecutive weeks in order to be counted for Continuous Guide Pay.

Upon review, we found that you did not meet the quality standards necessary to be paid the $0.20 per question rate. As this was an error on our part all earnings you have accrued thus far are yours, however, please note that your rate has been adjusted to the $0.10 per question rate.

We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. We would also like to thank those of you who sent feedback inquiring into a possible error.

Best,

ChaCha Guide Care

What a bunch of crap! OMG, I'm steaming right now. I have been a TG with an average of 500 searches a week for the last 3 months. There is no way I didn't make the qualifications.

Oh man, you too. I'm sorry. That stinks.

Something is definitely not right here. I honestly am not sure why I bother continuing to work for a company with such shady practices.

 

[Tink561]

That is the same email I got. I'm sorry. We can't be the only two. This needs to be fixed.

I'd rather doubt we are. Of course, the forum has been down all morning so I can't get on to see if it's happened to others.

 

[newtodcl]

I also got the "Whoops, we made an error and now you are at .10 for consecutive guide pay" I wonder if they are trying to save money by only paying the 10 cents or if they are just that screwed up. Not good either way!

 

[mindyd]

Does anyone know how long it will be down for?

 

[Amii]

I signed in and I have had 2 questions in 8 minutes. Looks like the problem is finally fixed!

I've been signed on and my questions are coming every 3-5 minutes, but I wouldn't call that fixed. That's what they've been doing and it's not back to back like they used to be. Unfortunately. They used to be much, much quicker.

 

[Mikelly1221]

Mine have been every 3-5 minutes, too, and I really don't call that fixed. Plus, since I'm down to $.10 per question because I've missed TG, it's really going to be hard to make any money.

 

[duckybelle]

I have been top guide for weeks as well, and they took away my continuous pay!!! WTH CHACHA??

LOL. That was my failed attempt at sarcasm.

OK. Sorry. I'm new to this thread and I thought maybe you were new to ChaCha or something.



Ugh, I cannot even get on to the underground to see where I'm at!

 

[daisy_77]

I didn't make top guide this week, so no email for me. I am completely baffled at ChaCha this week. Let's hope this gets fixed ASAP.
