PerkTV

[AJollyHoliday]

I have never run Perk through my computer. I am going to give that try. I use to think it took so long to rack up Perk points compared to Swagbucks, but lately, we have been running 6 devices with Perk and getting $10 every week or so.

If anyone is looking to buy cheap phones for perking...
Walmart has Zone 3s for $12.

Thanks I picked up one of these phones and it seems to be working out well. Was thinking of getting another but they are now sold out everywhere near me.

I also really like this phone. It runs really well. I would pick up more, but alas, also sold out.

The stores weren't sold out. I think Walmart made an error, and their way to correct it was to mark all as Out of Stock.

I managed to get 8 phones in store while they were out of stock online. YMMV, but Walmart will match the online price. If the clerk is on their game, they will check to see if they are in stock online. If they are not, they are not supposed to give it to you. I lucked out at 2 out of 5 stores.

My Perk apps have been running really well. I am now running 5 phones pretty much nonstop and am making about $4-5 per day. I like the prospect of another $100 - $150 each month. I would love to get some more deals on some decent phones to expand my farm. That LG phone is great. Keeping my eye out.

Walmart has a 2 prepaid phone per purchase limit.

This limit was big news in my neck of the woods recently because a string of WalMart stores starting in Michigan and going south through Missouri reported large purchases of cheap cell phones over a couple of days. Clerks were supposed to limit it to two but many didn't do that. The FBI got involved because of the terrorist risk but I never heard any more about it. I told my husband the guy was probably "Perking" but I think he was reselling them.

Whoops, two tabs open, wrong board.

I can't get swagbucks to load. Is anyone else having the same problem?

SB worked fine for me this morning. I moved that device over to Perk about an hour ago.

Interesting new category on Perk Pop Quiz - "That's What She Said". Easy way to rack up some points if you have time to answer. Hint - all answers are "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID"

Hi! I typically run PerkTV Live on my iPhone. I can't seem to get it to detect my TV and check into a show....I tried deleting and reinstalling the app. First time I have had any problems - any suggestions??

I am now running just Viggle at a snails pace to get points

I just started Perk the other day. I have my old iPhone 5 and a very old droid charge that I am trying to use. The iPhone 5 seems to run it ok, but often hangs up and I just get a spinning dot in the middle of the screen. The droid charge seems to be basically useless. I'm looking for some insight as to how/where you all have phone "farms" set up? I'd like to avoid having to constantly run around the house checking phones. How do you do it?

 

[davper]

My farm is getting the spinning circle you mentioned. I believe most are getting the same and the problem is at Perks end.

Yep! Live has been crap since late last week. The other apps are working fine for me.

Ugh! Static ads!!!!! Perk, you're killing me! I'm getting them on all of the apps!

Me too. It's a farm killer.

Those stupid bitcoin ads started showing up after midnight last night again. They seem to go away once everyone gets in to work at Perk.

Never mind this post! I was trying to ask a question but apparently I can't do that from Firefox browser. It randomly posted this quote when I was trying to just type a question. Then I tried to delete my post and can't seem to figure that out either. Switched to safari just to type this LOL.

 

[millerwdwfans]

Looks like I can post from safari but not Firefox. I'm on the iPad but whatever. Forgive me for being rusty at this. I think it's been about three years since I've been on here.
I'm fairly new to perk so I have a couple questions if you don't mind me asking here. On the pop quiz app do you just let it run and get one point at a time or do you play? Also what is a static ad and a Bitcoin ad?
Thank you!

I have 5 phones running the pop quiz app and I just let them run. Make sure that you put it on lightening mode so that it runs through the questions faster. With the 5 phones, plus running it on my computer while I am working, I am averaging about $20-$25 per week. Though this week there were some ads that would make the app stop auto-running so I will only make about $15 this week I think. This is what was meant by the "static ads." Specifically, the ads were for bitcoin.

Thank you! I didn't know I could have more than one device running the same app. Is that all with one username and password or multiple accounts? Sorry for so many questions. I thought maybe that's what was meant about th adds but I wasn't sure.
