I'm doing YFVI on the points system. It'll be the first TRAINN site I complete. I did 7 offers between Sunday and Monday. Four credited within the expected time, but I'm still waiting on three (Earthlink, FreeServer and PC Safety), despite a "Next Business Day" crediting time-frame.
I realize it hasn't been a week yet, so I'm not griping or anything, I just wanted to throw in my two cents. Some of the offers are definitely still crediting. Some are taking longer than expected. I'll chime in next week with an update.

I've recommended stamps.com to many people...I have 6 people on one of my sites, and lii believeli they did stamps.com for all of them, and only one has credited...this was over 2 weeks ago.

UPDATE
I just got credited for Earthlink. As far as I can tell, TRAINN is indeed crediting. I'd assume any problems that are occurring are with the offer companies. Not that it makes it any less of a bummer, but at least it doesn't appear that TRAINN is beginning to suffer from the fishy things that are happening at Freepay.

not to be mean or anything, but you haven't waited very long yet, i'm still missing a ref who did an offer over a month ago, and despite sending in no credit requests, support tickets, and along with his confirmation email given to him for completing the offer, still nothing has come out of it.

We aren't aware of any advertiser issues or had any signs that there is/was a problem (for example, one particular offer all of a sudden receiving a ton of requests). It is almost impossible though to determine why something doesn't credit normally though as each case can be a different reason and we cannot recreate the scenerio.
The best thing we can do is follow up on the missing credit request and as long the requirements have been met, you will receive credit.

That is highly unlikely. Due to all of the user "claims" of missing credits (they are still in the same ratio as the previous 3 month average), there has been a substantial increase in 3rd party claims that the referral has not received credit when sign-ups were not even attempted (based on our logged data).
I'm not inferring that it happens a lot (if they have legitimately completed an offer through our site, they will receive credit), but it's becoming a bigger trend based on the last two weeks activity and posts like this one just give the decetiful traders a new excuse.

The clock doesn't start on the missing credit requests resolution process until you file one (which was less then one week ago). As the message states, most are resolved within 10 business days (which is two full weeks).

There are a multitude of offers I have completed that were to be instant but have yet to credit, like Earthlink, Literary Guild, and Tickle. It hasn't been a week yet, but maybe it's just slow at this point?

Pretty sure Trainn stopped creditting.. I have around 10 pending offers that have been pending from 1 week-3weeks (7ish refs, 3 site offers). I have submited support tickets with confirmation emails and even offered to take pictures of the products that came from them (Miracle Burn), but I don't think they reply/read your tickets. This is pretty annoying..
dmorris68

They've had some delayed crediting issues recently, but are still crediting. I've done 3 Trainn sites in the last month. The first took nearly a month and 2 credit requests to get credit. The next site took only about 3 days. The last site I just did took only 1-2 days to credit. None of the offers were instant, but all were "next business day."
So they do still credit...

I've been waiting on several credits from people I know in the real world, who I know completed their offer. In March they were crediting in 1-2 days, since then its been weeks. Not even answering missing credit reports.
It's been over a month since I signed up and completed their "True.com" offer... (the trainn site says that this one should credit the next day). And feedback from Trainn has been sorely lacking.

That couldn't be further from the truth. Pratically every single user that has registered for the an advertiser once (you don't get credit if you've had any type of account with them before) through our site and link, and has provided the information requested on the missing credit request page over the last month and a half has received credit. If you haven't received credit you either have
A) Did not supply a confirmation email [bb1366991c7]WITH HEADERS[/bb1366991c7] (we clearly state on the page that requests without these [ub1366991c7]WILL NOT[/ub1366991c7] be pursued. It's been this way since day 1). This is the primary reason why requests take longer then they should.

Really? How so?
If you've missed the, oh, 6-10 mentions, in the last couple weeks, I'll say it again. There is no human involvement with crediting, it's automatic based on the reports that are provided to us. [u311da41387][b311da41387]EVERYTHING[/b311da41387][/u311da41387] that reports to us is updated and if it doesn't credit, then it hasn't been reported to us (so, obviously, the system would not know to credit an account).

Why doesn't TRAINN just put the REAL crediting time down? Then we know what to expect? Better to be pleasantly surprised when it credits sooner than expected than to think it will take a day and have it be a month.

It is the usual reporting time listed. It doesn't take into consideration the time for a missing credit request, because A) it will not apply to most B) that time is often determined by the users action.
The time listed is the time it typically takes to report to us. Obviously, if it doesn't report to us, it's not within that certain time, but since on average the other 8/9-10 do, it is accurate.

Well so far for TRAINN sites and me, Blockbuster is the only one that seemed to credit in the timeframe mentioned on the TRAINN site
Apr 22, 2006 Blockbuster Credited within the same day I believe.
Apr 22, 2006 Stamps.com MCR filed w/confirmation e-Mail w/full headers
Apr 23, 2006 Bargain.com MCR filed w/confirmation e-Mail w/full headers
Apr 24, 2006 Tickle.com IQ MCR filed w/confirmation e-Mails w/full headers
So out of the 4 offers, only 1 credited within the timeframe mentioned on the site. 25%. Could have been worse but seeing these offers not credit in the timeframes indicated has made me slow down on trading or completing any other offers.
Just to clarify, all these offers are each on seperate sites as the initial 'sign-up' offer. Not all on one site or multiples on one site.

Toppik Hair Solution
Received
Had done Video Professor too but that had "Insufficient Information" in which I promptly sent a support ticket.
What's up with my Topikk credit? I also sent a support ticket with the shipping confirmation e-mail AND the scan of the shipping insert/invoice.
