Lots of great info here! Thanks guys! I don't really do the $1 offers as most of them don't interest me. I actually have done some offers that were a bit pricey but I love the products that I purchased!

I have noticed that a lot of people a having issues with $1 offers. There are a lot out there. I have found a lot of good offers that I'm interested in.

Ahhhhh, this post certainly does explain a lot. I've had quite a bit of trouble with many of the 1 dollar credit offers but this helps me better understand what's been happening. Excellent Post. Thanks!

There are alot of these around, and they are for you to test out, not just to complete for credit. I'm pretty sure if you spend $4 to make 1 credit, you only did them to complete the site. That's not the point.

The point is to complete those offers that interest you. Every now and then, you may end up doing an offer because you have run out, so it's a last resort to complete a site. That is understandable. It happens to everyone.

I'm quite certain that every single $1 trial does not interest you. For a limited few, it very well may, but not everyone. More than 95% of all users complete the $1 trials first, then move on to something else. More than 50% of those $1 trials never credit.

A lot of you may be saying, "I cleared cookies, turned off all of my security features, used valid info, etc. I did everything right. I have waited and waited. Why haven't I gotten credit?"

******************

Here's the deal with the $1 trials: they are good offers, with good crediting...most of the time. When you do them back to back, that is when you create a problem. Most of these offers are from the same parent company. As you should already know, those types of offers do not credit well one after the other. You may already be logged in the system as a customer, and if their database pulls your info as you are signing up for another offer, they may not give you credit for being new.

True enough, it's a separate offer with a separate product, and totally independent from the last. You truly haven't done anything wrong. It's just that they want "new" customers. It's okay to do one here and there, but back to back does you no good more often than not.

Lots of people have had good luck with these $1 trials, but more have not gotten credit. Should you decide that you want to take your chance doing these offers in a short time frame, at least wait for credit from one before doing the next.

They are cheap, yes. But when you don't get credit, and do alot of them, they can become expensive- in terms of lost money and wasted offers. And that isn't good for anyone.

Something I forgot to mention: Most of these $1 trials now come with piggyback offers. So instead of doing ONE offer you end up doing TWO, but you will only get credit for one. And that "piggyback" offer, is now just wasted.

[opbill55]

When i first started and didn't know any better, one of the first offers i did i ended up with three different offers signed up for. meaning after i signed up for the original, it said i was automatically signed up to try another for 1 dollar, 30days.........then the next page asked if i wanted to try a different product,,,,,,,i ticked yes because all i knew was i was trying to get to the confirmation page. i didn't realize these extra offers were optional.....i thought if i didn't do them, i wouldn't get credit.
If you see those types of things thinking, hey....I didn't want this. see if you can find a "no thanks" or "skip" button. I cant quite remember how i got through it next time i encountered it.... hope this helps someone
