I joined Netwinner over 2 years ago, the premise and promise was " you play we pay " thats their motto and still is..
You spin a wheel collect pts and cash them in for gift cards etc, it was a boring site so i had a hard time getting the 25,000 pts needed to cash out, but finally in NOV 07, i did.
I waited a few weeks and then found their forum, where i found out that members were waiting 5-6 months on their prizes, (though the TOS said 90 days) that was hugely disappointing, but i figured what the heck, at least they pay so i kept playing.
During the next few months, they made many changes, limiting your spins, taking away some prizes, then April 11th, they took away the 10 pt wins and gave us raffle entries and changed the cashout minimum to 100,000 pts, which once we figured it up it would take us 1 1/2 years to reach, so i quit playing.
By this time i had cashed in for 2 $25 gift cards and almost had enough for another one but once they changed it to $100 min cashout i decided to just let that go.
All this time members are getting angry, we figured out it had been 6 weeks since anyone had been paid, members were asking questions, we were assured that we would be paid, and if you dared to say anything negative on the forum or ask point blank questions, they were deleted and you were banned.
It was even pointed out that the owners had ties to the porn industry, which we were also not allowed to mention!
Finally today i sign in to check the status on my prizes, since some members were paid last week (5-6 from what i could tell) and all my prizes were GONE!
The president wrote some mumbo jumbo about how they were going to KEEP going but screw all of us players, and that 40% of us were cheaters so no one was gettin paid!
As so many of the brown nosers on the forum like to point out, the site is free, so true, but my time is not, i didnt have to play, true but i played on the assumption that " you play, we pay".
They gave us our pts back, though they are worthless, unless you want to enter a raffle, which i dont, that wasnt what i agreed to, nor was it what they promised!
Netwinner, you suck!
All you that keep spinning, and playing the raffles, you are suckers, what makes you think they will pay you?
Hit them where it hurts, quit spinning and shut these ripoff artists down!
