1 Reason To Join Writedge And Daily Two Cents

Wednesday, July 25, 2018
Actually, there are many good reasons to join Writedge and Daily Two Cents (writing sites where you can earn some passive or residual income by posting articles), but, if you can only give one reason to convince people to join or to at least to try out these websites, what will you say?

Edited to add: unfortunately, both writing sites in question have changed their payment model from pay per thousand views to a revenue-sharing (Google AdSense) one. The traffic in these sites have also gotten quite low lately.

One very good reason to join or to try out either Writedge or Daily Two Cents is how you never have to worry about these 2 writing websites. Never have to worry about what, you ask? The answer to that is simple and yet very important for most, if not all, who publish articles on revenue-sharing sites: getting paid.

Writedge and Daily Two Cents pays

That’s right. With the 2 aforementioned sites, you never have to worry and wonder if you’ll ever receive the money that you see on your profile page (this is where you can see the total number of views that you’ve gotten for all the articles that you posted alongside its monetary equivalent. The profile page is also where you can input your own payment threshold, with the minimum being $5, and your PayPal email).

No need to chase money you earned

As long as you reached the payment threshold, you don’t have to worry about anything because you will get your payment. You don’t have to chase after the money that you earned. It will arrive though it might take some time because of the payment schedule (you get paid once a month), but, honestly, for me, I really don’t mind waiting as long as you will eventually receive what has been promised to you on the due date.

Writedge and Daily Two Cents = trustworthy

Writedge and Daily Two Cents keep their promises. If they say that you will get paid every month on the second as long as you reach the minimum payment threshold, then you will get it, no questions asked. You don’t have to worry or be stressed about this at all.

Contact them anytime, anywhere

If there is a problem, if you’re facing an issue with your payment, or if you want to ask some questions, feel free to contact the 2 aforementioned sites. You can use the "online support" form (the link can be found in your writing dashboard when you’re logged on to either of the websites).

Actually, it doesn’t matter whatever issue you’re having or whatever it is you want to ask about because you can just contact the site admins or owners, and, here’s the best part – you will get a reply. You don’t have to wait forever for it either.

You don’t have to spend your days wondering and fretting, "oh no, will I get a response? Do they care enough to answer my questions? Will they help me with my issue?" Forget all of those fears and worries because, not only does Writedge and Daily Two Cents reply to your queries, they also pay on time (sometimes even early). How wonderful is that? What do you think?

1 Reason To Exercise Your Freedom Of Speech

Wednesday, July 18, 2018
I don’t know if anyone is going to see this here on Writedge since traffic is kind of low lately, but I wanted to post this here in case it can help someone.
bubblews, writing sites, reviews, informational articles, site stop paying, website shut down, how to get paid, file complaint, bbb, better business bureau
This is about Bubblews, redemption, and payments, and, yes, there’s also a reason why I added the "exercise your freedom of speech" to the title. I actually want to say more than that in the title, but it’s long enough as it is, so I’ll just say it here in the body of the post.

Bubblews and redemptions made on November 2014

The news about Bubblews no longer paying redemptions made before the 11th of November 2014 due to fraudulent activity shocked all its members. It upset all those who redeemed before the 11th and understandably so. Many lost hundreds of dollars, so how can they be expected to just get over losing so much money as if it was a mere "inconvenience"?

Even those who didn’t lose much have a right to be upset. All those who didn’t do anything wrong and yet have to suffer for the mistakes and sins of the spammers and cheaters should let their voices be heard. Speak up. Don’t be silent. If you say nothing, then how can anything be done about this?

Filing complaints

I’ve heard suggestions of filing complaints to the BBB (Better Business Bureau), FTC (Federal Trade Commission) and the IC3 (Internet Crime Complaint Center). I decided to start with the BBB with the intention of trying the other 2 later on. I thought, what have I got to lose by trying? Even if nothing comes of this, at least I can say that I tried and won’t have to wonder "what if..."

Complaining to the BBB

So, I filed a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. It took a while before anything happened. The initial response I got back from Bubblews by way of the BBB was them (Bubblews) asking me for the original email address I used to sign up or create a Bubblews account as well as my Bubblews username.

Asking for my username was completely unnecessary because I already listed that in my original complaint and even included my PayPal email. Admittedly, I didn’t give the email address that I used to sign up for Bubblews, but I didn’t think that’d even be important. I mean, if they have all this info already, they can easily find the rest on their database and records, right?

Anyway, regardless, I gave the information they asked for. Again, I had to wait for quite a while before I got a response. This was the one that I was waiting for. To say I was surprised is an understatement because I guess I never really thought this would happen.

Bubblews pays

Yup, you read that right. I redeemed last August 20, 2014, and, finally, after filing a complaint to the BBB, Bubblews paid me my missing redemption. They sent the e-check to my PayPal account on February 3, 2015 and it got cleared on February 5, 2015.

This is a very happy and wonderful news, and I encourage everyone who’ve also lost money to strongly consider filing a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. Note that I’m not saying that you’ll definitely be paid because that’s not under my control, but, based on my experience, there’s a good chance that you will also get paid.

How to file a complaint to the BBB?

You can go straight to their site and just search for Bubblews or their file a complaint link and then fill out the form. I wrote a tutorial about this here in case you need some help. You can also feel free to ask me questions here in the comments section and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Important things to note about filing a complaint to the BBB:


  • Your location doesn’t matter – you could be anywhere in the world and the BBB will accept your complaint, so don’t think that you don’t matter and that you’re insignificant and that no one will listen to you. Just try, speak up and let your voice be heard
  • It’s free to file a complaint – don’t worry, you don’t have to pay a single cent to complain to the BBB and this is all the more reason to do so because what more will you lose, right? You already lost so much money. If there’s a chance that you can get your payments, don’t you want to at least try?
  • If you file a complaint – please do NOT include profanities or threats when you fill out the form or the BBB might not process it

So, what are you waiting for? Is there a reason to hesitate? If you know that you honestly, truly, really didn’t do anything wrong, then, exercise your freedom of speech, speak up, and let your voice be heard. We’re all humans and we all get hurt and we all have rights, so we shouldn’t just let others walk all over us.

We might seem small and insignificant compared to all the big and powerful companies out there, but that doesn’t make us any less human and that doesn’t remove our rights. We need to stay united and fight for what is right, for the truth, for what we believe in.

Good News From Bubblews

Wednesday, July 11, 2018
Also known as "Not just another Bubblews redemption post".

Okay, maybe no one will see this article here since traffic on Daily Two Cents is kind of low lately, but I wanted to post this here anyway in case it can help someone, in case someone, anyone, can see it. I hope this can help someone, and, yes, this is related to Bubblews and payments or redemptions.
bubblews, writing sites, reviews, informational articles, site stop paying, website shut down, how to get paid, file complaint, bbb, better business bureau
We (well, at least those who write there and, eh, many others, I suppose) all know what happened with Bubblews, right? They said they would no longer pay redemptions made before November 11, 2014.

So many people lost so much even if they didn’t do anything wrong. I lost an August 2014 redemption too. Of course, we were upset. That’s completely understandable. If you’ve lost money, there’s no way you’d just get over it right away especially if you lost hundreds of dollars, right?

Complain to – BBB, FTC, IC3

I heard suggestions of filing complaints to the BBB (Better Business Bureau), the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) and the IC3 (Internet Crime Complaint Center). I decided to file a complaint to the BBB. I considered the other two as well though I wanted more info before doing so. I don’t have to do that anymore though.

Bubblews paid

Yes, you read that right. I filed a complaint to the BBB and they helped me out. It took some time. I don’t know how long (sorry, I don’t have a copy of the records on hand at the moment, and, to be honest, I didn’t really bother to count since I didn’t know if anything good would happen after asking for help from the BBB), but the waiting doesn’t matter if you get favorable results in the end, right?

So, yes, I finally got my long-overdue payment from August 20, 2014. Bubblews sent it to my PayPal account on February 3, 2015 and the e-check cleared on February 5, 2015. There was a fee amount of $2.68 though. Nonetheless, I’m very happy about this. I didn’t really think I’d get anything, but I thought I’d try anyway because why not? You won’t lose anything by trying, and, at the very least, even if nothing comes of it, you can say that, "hey, at least I tried, so I won’t have to wonder what if..."

Exercise your rights! Let your voice be heard

If you lost money from Bubblews and you know you honestly, truly didn’t do anything wrong, I encourage you to try and let your voice be heard. We all have rights even if we may seem insignificant to all the big companies and corporations out there. I’m not saying you’ll get paid because I honestly don’t know (I guess this is up to the BBB and Bubblews or just Bubblews), but, from my experience, I think there’s a big possibility that you will receive your payment.

File a complaint to the BBB

Here are some things that you might want to know if you’re interested in asking the Better Business Bureau for help:

  • It’s free to file a complaint to the BBB – so you really won’t lose anything by trying
  • Your location doesn’t matter – the BBB doesn’t care where in the world you’re currently living or staying, so feel free to file a complaint
  • However, you’re required to give your real name and your address when you file your complaint
  • Also, be sure to explain everything that happened in your complaint, and, if you’re mad, just refrain or do NOT write profanities or threaten anyone in your complaint or the BBB might not process it

I wrote a tutorial about this here if you need some help on exactly what you need to do, what you need to fill out, what you should say, etc. Or you can just ask me here on Daily Two Cents in the comments section below and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. I hope this can help someone and that all the innocent people who didn’t do anything wrong will also get their payments from Bubblews.

Have You Heard The Latest News About Bubblews?

Wednesday, July 4, 2018
What’s the latest news about Bubblews? Have you heard about it? Honestly, I’m really surprised about this news. I didn’t think this would happen.
bubblews, writing sites, reviews, informational articles, site stop paying, website shut down
Maybe I’m just being overly optimistic or idealistic. Or is this what you’d classify as simply being a dreamer? Sigh. It would be nice if this didn’t have to happen though, right?

Hearing about the Bubblews news

I first heard about the news from reading an article here on Daily Two Cents. Even then, I didn’t want to believe the news. Maybe there was a mistake or something. I know, that’s just wistful thinking and maybe even being silly because the post even included a link to the Bubblews article in question. But, yeah, guess maybe I am just being too optimistic about all this.

Official Bubblews news

So, I checked out the official Bubblews news article. It was fairly short. There it was, reality staring you in the face – according to the post, anyone who redeemed before the 11th of November 2014 will not get paid thanks to really high "manipulation and fraudulent activity". Those who redeemed after the 11th of November 2014 will get paid, but their payments will be reduced and will now be based on the new payment model they have.

What do you think?

So, what do you think about this news? What do you feel about it? Does it hurt? Is it okay to feel upset about this? Is this fair? Did you think this was going to happen? Do you feel like your hopes have been shattered? Do you feel like your dreams have been broken? I’ve seen so many posts about this and many are upset, but can you blame those who have done nothing wrong for feeling the way they feel?
