i was on sunday but its collecting nothing its a slow earner i think they should pull there socks up the rewards are bad

DEREK FORTUNE, 2024-10-13

I give up with this. It's taken 9 months to earn $6. Granted I do use Edge a lot but I'm usually using both Edge and Chrome all day every day so it's ridiculously slow progress. What's your privacy worth? I don't know but suerly it's worth more than $10 a year. To balance things out I haven't noticed any negative side effects of having the extension installed and you can just forget about it and in 3 years time you can treat yourself to a coffee and piece of cake. Whoop Whoop! Sorry Datacy.
