Okay - it looks like I've gotten all 8 completed referrals. Hooray for me, right?

Um, no. I'm still getting the whole Congratulations! You have completed your requirements. Now just get 8 friends to complete an offer.


I have no verification button. Strange.

Any suggestions? Harry989?

So you have 8 [u14eb048f33]green[/u14eb048f33] referrals right? I hate to ask a stupid question, but it may be as simple as you not understanding what they mean by completed referrals. If you only have 8 yellow referrals then you have more work to do. If you do indeed have 8 green referrals, try going back to the page now and logging out, then back in again. Sometimes it just takes a little bit for it to update. After I placed the order for my Toshiba, every time I went back for about an hour, it gave me the option to place my order again. Their page simply didn't refresh. An hour later when I checked my status, it was showing my order. Thats just my 2 cents

Yup - 8 green referrals. I'll give your login, logout thing a try.

Thanks. Anybody notice two envelopes on either side of the FFS screen now? I guess that's their way to let everyone know to use their online email thing to contact them.

Okay, I SWEAR I've been computer literate for some time, but would you suggest as the easiest way to post a SS? Perhaps I'm having a case of half-heimers (not quite all, but just half)

Open paint and paste it. say yes to enlarge the pic. Save the file as .jpgurl==http://=http:///url or .pngurl==http://=http:///url on your desktop.

To go photojerk.com and register for their free photo hosting service. You can upload the picture to their servers. You will get a link to the pic you can use in your post. It will me something like

The two envelopes are in the upper left and right. This image also includes the text that says I've completed, but shows I cannot send off for verification.

Things seem to have taken care of themselves. I'm down to 6 completed now. Very strange. None were canceled or anything, just yellowed out now.

Oh well.

Apparently a number of people have had the same problem I've had, but the "fix" seems to have caused people to lose completed referrals.

I wonder how this will be handled.

It is one thing for someone to complete an offer and not get credited, but for someone to complete an offer, get credited and then LOSE credit? That seems strange.

All Gratis sites seem to be bugged right now, everyone is complaining about their accounts being messed up...including me.
