Today I checked my Paid.vg account again to see if my first payment has finally been sent to my Alertpay account. But, as I already expected, no money was sent. I’m waiting since February 25th on my first $13 payout and the Paid.vg TOS states that payments will be send within 30 days. So, even after 30 business days, I didn’t get paid. Many members, including premiums, were not paid too. But that isn’t the only problem that currently occurs on Paid.vg…
Today I also noticed a mysterious change in my accounts payment history. Some days ago the history showed me a pending payment of $13 (the money I’m still waiting for), but today…nada! It seems the Paid.vg admin has silently removed pending payment requests. And here I’m not the only one again. It looks like all members with pending payments have the same problem.
This is what lets me think that Paid.vg turns out to be a real big scam! Unfortunately I have to tell you that, my fellow readers. I know I have promoted Paid.vg many times (it has looked legit until the latest problems) and I feel really sorry to have done that.
I can’t say for 100% if Paid.vg really is a scam, but at the moment it looks like it is. We have payment problems, deleted payment requests, deleted forum threads (some people reported it), a bad support (the ticket system is useless cause nobody answers your questions) and members often times don’t get their ordered referral packages or they get it far too late. For me this looks like money is flowing into Paid.vg, but unfortunately not out of it as it should.
I will keep this post until those problems get resolved by the Paid.vg staff and I encourage everybody, who didn’t get paid yet or feels scammed, to spread the word about this possible scam. I personally will write more scam warnings if it should really turn out to be one.
If you want to join a real good PTC site in the meantime, I would highly suggest you to join Bux.to (reff). This site, with over 3 million members, is legit and already tested by myself. It has a nice support and the best part is, Bux.to really pays!

On February 25th I’ve made my first cashout request on Paid.vg, a really good PTC sites comparable to Bux.to. I’ve requested $12.50 nearly a month ago, but so far I didn’t receive my payout. I’ve done some research in the forums and it seems some people already got paid the last days. I hope I will receive my first bucks too. My current account balance is now at $24, thanks to my 7 referrals who click eveyday. If it turns out that they really pay, Paid.vg seems like a very good money maker.
See you,

As you may know, I´ve reached the minimum payout limit on Paid.vg some days ago. With help of my referrals I have $12.50 in my account balance and, at least in theory, I would be able to request my first payment. But it seems, with Paid.vg payments are somewhat complicated.
You can request your payments only once in a month, on every 22nd. So, yesterday was the 22nd and I logged into my account to do a cashout. But the system told me “Sorry, you can only request payment on the 22nd unless you are a premium member.” I tried it again and again, but everytime the same message. I rechecked the current date only to be sure if it really was the 22nd (and it was).
So, there are two possibilities. The first one could be, that Paid.vg has some serious server problems. Maybe something is wrong with their databases or something like that. I don´t know.
The second one is, that they could operate from a timezone where there already was the 23rd of the month, e.g. Australia?! I don´t know.
I´ve sent a support ticket to the Paid.vg team yesterday, but I got no response so far. I hope they´ll give me a clear answer on this problem. For the moment I´m a bit angry, although it shouldn´t be a problem to wait another month (I was so happy to have reached the minimum payout
To make it clear, I won´t discourage you in joining Paid.vg, as it seems to be a very good money maker. I think the cashout problems will clarify!
I´ll keep you updated!

UPDATE 02/24:
New infos from Paid.vg! They had some server issues regarding cashouts. The cashout date is now moved from the 22nd to the 25th! Seems, I wasn´t the only one with payout problems

Only 7 days after writing about my process on Paid.vg, I finally reached the $10 minimum payout limit today! My 4 referrals kept “working” for me the last days with a steady $0.30 each day. Now I´ve reached $10.22 (that´s a total of 1022 ads clicked) and I´m ready for cashout. Thank you!
One problem I´ve only realized today was the payment policy of Paid.vg. Unlike Bux.to, where you have to wait up to 60 business days before receiving your payments, Paid.vg pays within only 30 days. But that isn´t the problem here, the real problem is that you can only request a cashout on the 22nd of each month, meaning I have to wait until the end of next week…I hope I won´t miss that date for some reasons, because than I have to wait another month again before requesting my cash. I also hope they´ll really pay me (and don´t scam me), I´ve heard from people getting paid within only one day
Have a nice weekend,

After many days I just checked back on my Paid.vg account to see how my stats were going. I first had to provide a new payment ID (like Bux.to they have also migrated from Paypal to Alertpay), but nothing special so far.
But then I went to my account statistics and was completely amazed. My earnings are nearing the $10 minimum payout limit, I currently have around $8.00 in my account. That kept me wondering, because I haven´t clicked that many ads lately. So I took a closer look and recognized that I had 4 referrals, which brought me over $6.00 within the last weeks! Thank you for all that “heavy” clicking
So I´m only 2 dollars away from requesting my first payment from Paid.vg, let´s see if they really pay. Also I don´t like Alertpay as a payment option (I can´t withdraw money directly to my bank account), I´m still looking forward to receive that payment soon, at least I can use it to buy more referrals on Bux.to (my best money maker so far) or even at Paid.vg!
