    Since Tuesday September 2nd This advert for AllState insurance has shown up in the Cinema The advert asks for Alot of personal information then states they will email you a quote for insurance, The email I get does not give insurance quote it asks for phone number so an agent can call to discuss your insurance needs. After providing personal info and such you still do NOT get the MM.

    I wait and do the cineplex thru out the day not all at once and each time I click on cineplex it is this same advert Example today over 6 hours time this same nonpaying advert has shown up 7 times.

    Question how many times per day does the same advert get replayed before it is considered SPAM ?

    Question 2 Has anyone gotten paid from this advert yet?
     
  2. As the cine plex is controlled by external providers and have no control over what is shown, moving this to speakers corner
    Happy gaming.

    While I can understand that the ads themselves are created and provided by external advertisers, I cannot understand that they are totally out of the control of Bigpoint. There simply must be some form of contractual agreement between the two parties, as I highly doubt Bigpoint are merely being generous and tossing out MM to players without themselves being reimbursed in some fashion. This is the world of "microtransactions", where companies get paid for hosting advertisements on their sites.

    It strikes me that if the player isn't receiving any MM, then neither are Bigpoint. At the very least I think it would be prudent to suggest that these genuine and legitimate concerns about some specific advertisers be passed on to Bigpoint management for further investigation. I would even go so far as to suggest that a sticky thread be created under General Questions for posting such specific concerns.
