Got Paid Update #108 - YouData

So you'll probably recall that a few weeks ago, I mentioned in this post that after almost a year of pretty much continuous payments every single Friday, I had last been paid by YouData at the end of April and hadn't been paid anything since.

Well, suddenly out of nowhere, I received a $0.02 payment from them Friday before last.

The only thing I can figure (since there still have been virtually no ads to view) is that one of my referrals who hadn't been there in a while went to see if they had any ads and there were one or two left from way back still waiting for them. Quite possibly someone who read my post a few weeks ago and decided to go check, but who knows.

Since that happened, while I was catching up on things here last week I decided to go take a look over at their "customer service" forum at GetSatisfaction.com to see if there had been any response or updates from YouData.

Nope. Several more posts since I was last there from more members wondering what the heck is going on, and one from a new member very confused about why there are no ads for them to see - and virtually no response from YouData staff.

I'm not removing all support for the program from my site just yet on the off chance that this all may just be temporary - but I suspect that the program is pretty much dead and it's just a matter of time before the site disappears. To have gone this long without comment in their own forum they set up to the many, many people who have been asking for months now, it really doesn't look too good for YouData. Really, at the very least, they could at least bother to put up a "sorry, we're closing" sign or some such.

In any case, it was an excellent idea in the beginning, but obviously they were never able to secure the amount and kind of advertising they hoped to be able to offer members. It's just a shame that an awful lot of people promoted it a great deal, and all the members are just being left to wonder without any answers. Too bad.

Things could change, but it doesn't look too good at this point. Anyway, my payment proof of this most recent payment is below. I'm kind of assuming their system is probably just set up to kick out payments automatically on Fridays if anyone's owed anything, since there doesn't really appear to be anyone at the wheel at YouData these days.
