There is no fix. I’ve still not had the issue resolved. I’m still only showing estimated 4.795 BAT payout for the month of September. Which is definitely wrong. The mid-month payout seemed to be subtracted from my September earnings and as of yet not been made right. Still waiting on payout to see what it is. I DM @steeven the requested information but have yet to get a reply and that’s been almost 2 weeks ago.
I might add that this is sad this has come to this. I’ve used Brave since it’s initial launch and have been a strong supporter of Brave/BAT project. I was a long time hardcore religious Firefox user and abandoned it to use Brave exclusively. These past few months of diminished payouts have got me considering going back. It’s honestly not worth it anymore considering how much I hate ads. I thought Brave would actually value the user base but it seems since they’ve started getting BIG NAME advertisers (Amazon, Walmart, etc…) they’re starting to forget where they came from and the original mission. All in favor of greed. 30-40 BAT a month to this. SMH Very disappointing!
This is absolutely pathetic. I’m about to ditch Brave because these payments have been severely reduced. I’ve been using it on multiple machines and gone from 20-30p/m to barely 2-3. It’s deliberate and I’ve had enough. Fix it or your customers will abandon your browser.
Hi @m4dpr0ph3ss0r, I’m sorry for not responding sooner. I really appreciate your candid feedback, and your patience. We are a tiny team serving thousands of users weekly. I have refunded your wallet directly. I assure you that we’re working hard every day to improve the user experience in every way. Please let me know if there’s anything else that I can do to be of help. Thank you.
Okay another update… Just received the BAT refund. (Attached is screenshot). Accounting for the missing BAT and September payments this brings the amount back to around my normal average. As stated previously I’ve been a strong supporter of this project from the beginning as I believed in the message and value to bring the power back to the people in means of data privacy and advertisements. I’m hoping this issue has been resolved, let us see what the month of October brings. Thank you @steeven for the continued support in resolving the matter. As long as the Brave team is willing to work with the community to respond and fix these issues I’m willing to stick with the project and help do my part in building the best browser and Internet we all deserve.
Unfortunately, you’re one of the lucky ones. There’s a whole community getting reamed atm.
Oh I’m still getting reamed apparently. I had over 5 BAT in estimated monthly payments for the next payout… I open a new tab this morning and it’s dropped to 1.88 BAT??? What exactly is going on here?? So now I’m having my earnings taken away? Are earnings being reduced? There has to be some explanation to the community about this. It’s gone on for months now and I think we deserve at least that much!
Mi saldo BAT desapareció de forma repentina, no se que sucede, no se a quien decirle, ya le escribí por DM a @steeven y no se que mas debo hacer. Se necesita una respuesta, ¿voy a perder lo ganado?, ¿Cómo saber que el navegador Brave es realmente seguro cuando permiten que sucedan estas cosas? Agrego captura de mi saldo actual donde no se muestra mi saldo real obtenido en el mes anterior:
My amount on estimated BATs has also reduced again. Two days ago I had around 8.9 estimated BATs in my rewards screen, since yesterday it has been reduced to 3.8 again for no apparent reason.
This is the second time now that this happens… the Brave Team should immediately fix this bug because if not I think that sooner or later they will lose many users because I think the rewards are one of the main reasons to use Brave instead of another browser.
Same… And last payment was less than half of usual
Does anybody know if there is already a fixed version (Alpha or Beta) available which can be used instead the Release Version? It’s too annoying to lose estimated rewards constantly.
Judging by their complete lack of engagement in the thread, they have no idea w.t.h is going on or they are deliberately screwing the people that supported them over. They obviously failed their ethics courses at uni.
Seems the estimated payouts have dropped by about the same about around 5 BAT… My estimated is now showing a bit over 3 BAT when in reality should be over 8 BAT. It’s still nowhere close to what I should be at this month… It’s almost the end of the month I should be pushing 30 BAT in estimated payouts for the month of October. I’m losing hope in this issue ever being resolved. Think it’s time to cash out and say goodbye to Brave/BAT project and return to Mozilla Firefox. I can do better than this trading. I hate advertisements with a passion and it’s just not worth the bandwidth or clutter anymore. I had a feeling this would happen once the big corporations started buying advert space. Keep the money at the top and throw the masses scraps. LET THEM EAT CAKE.
They say an update fixes these issues. It hasn’t. If you use brave browser, don’t waste your time anymore. Go back to Chrome or Firefox.
I already posted on this thread in Sep 6… Still crappy payouts. Got 2.820 bat today which is like 50 cents! Can’t believe they are still doing this bull.
I need to wait one full month now to see what happens for myself, and now I’m getting worried. Estimated pending rewards would of course go lower with less clickthrus paying out. What they shouldn’t do is get people’s hopes up and then deliver a fractional payout. What they could do is change to a share system. So everyone sees the share of the monthly 70% of ad revenue they will receive, no matter what it ends up. People would be much less disappointed then. However seeing a %0.0005 share (two million users all earning about the same), may not be enticing as seeing the coins pile up during the month.
Same here… Problem still not resolved… I received a total of 4 BAT for the whole month of October… It’s been a nice run but the Brave team isn’t willing to resolve the payments issue because they’re lining their pockets with the revenues from big money corporate advertisers. Brave/BAT project runs under a false pretense of giving power back to the people only to sh^t on us and take care of themselves. Awful analogous to politicians of today in America. Back to Firefox I go. It’s not worth the bandwidth or time anymore. Going from 30-40 BAT a month to 2-4 BAT a month. It’s awful fishy this didn’t happen until the big money adverts started buying space and BAT hit ATH in trade price. I know that’s why and it’s not gonna change. I’ll be calling for all users of Brave browser to abandon the project. If people don’t stand together we’ll continue to be sh^t on by those in power which is what is happening here. Plain and simple.
Same for me. I was using nightly at the very start of the month but changed to beta and have used it ever since. I had about 10BAT estimated on beta and only got 0.9BAT!
I tought they only sent me what I had on nightly since I don’t remember what it was but looking at this post it’s probably not that… this needs fixing fast!
Same problem, devs fix this or your credibilty will go down!
@steeven what will you do about this problem? I see people starting to leave your browser so you should probably do something about it.
