Auto-Contribute after Update activated / BAT rewards lost?

Hey there,

I use Brave and Brave rewards on my Android Smartphone, Android Tablet and on my Windows Notebook and I am connected and veryfied with my Uphold wallet.

Somehow, there are transactions from my wallet to Brave Software International. Why?

Reservechain transaction ID
b595f49d-e91c-4543-9dcf-96adacc7d250
5 BAT from my wallet to Brave.

Reservechain transaction ID:
06af381e-b97a-422b-9a5c-db728a682986
1 BAT from my wallet to Brave.

Auto Contribute was turned off all the time, but I had to find out, that it was turned on in the desktop version.

Somehow, the date when the transaction of 5 BAT was made, it was 16th October - a few days after the last dektop-update was installed and I am 100% percent sure, that I turned the feature off on all my devices.

Same in August! There was an Update a few days before the 1 BAT Transaction.

Please send Back the 6 BAT and fix this!

Hello,
I have that kind of issue when 1.50 BAT has been transferred to Brave Software International. I also think that it is because the Auto Contribute was strangely turned on while it has always been turned off !
How could we get refund ?

Thank you.

Best Regards

You can compare the date of the Transaction to the Brave changelogs.
I bet your transaction happened in October after the 10-12th, right?

Hello everyone,
Any update on this topic ? Do you know if a staff member would get this notice or is this useless to open a thread here ?

Yes, the support refunded the 6 BAT directly to my Uphold.

Hello all,
Any updates on your lost BAT ? I still did not get refund

Regards

no bats giving back to me also

HI- I don’t received Ads since 10-17. I brought a new PC, then installed Brave, activated Ads in Rewards but I didn’t recieve anything in a week, nowertheless I recieve ads on my phone!! that is connected by wifi (same IP)
I don’t have any explanation by myself and I’m wating for the missing support yet, they were never coming back since 10-17!!

Hello,
This is really strange indeed.
I still receive ads, but if it is for the funded BAT to be stolen again, it is kid of useless.
I still have not got refund for the 1.5 BAT of September.

 I don't know if the support staff is actually reading the threads here.

Regards

yes, I’am afraid that is happening, or…
it is something wrong with this browser that they can’t explain or solve

Are you still not getting any relevant ads on your brave browser ?

I mean, the browser is meant to send you relevant ads, based on your configuration but also based on the sites you go to. It might seem dumb, but if you are not using the browser, you won’t reveive any ads.

From my side, I have still not been refund. Following days I hope I will get the BAT for this month but if it is to be taken back to Brave Software Inc… that one of a kind to steal currency from people :open_mouth:

Hope our issues will get resolved soon
