Constant Content

There seem to be some editors at CC right now who have no idea what they are doing. Twice recently I have had articles completely rejected, complete with the message about how the article can no longer be considered for approval, and that I should not resubmit. Aside from the fact that in both cases...

I just received a rejection for not reaching a "400-word lower limit." First of all, there is no mention anywhere on the website that a 400-word minimum exists. Secondly, I had an article of under 400 words literally accepted all of two days ago... :roll: I don't mind dealing with a 400-wo...

I always switch to size 3 on the editor (when I copy paste from the document on my computer it automatically goes into size 2). I'm not sure if size 3 is actually required but I do know that it's accepted by the editors.

If I go to my Stripe account it says I have a balance of $108.55, so I guess that means I've received my mid-month payout (or it's on its way). What is a little odd is that that total does not include a sale I had on the 13th. I guess it will included in the next payout instead.

I excitedly checked my bank, to find that nothing has appeared, and then noticed that my CC account still has the money listed as "owing this month". Has it left CC? Is it making its way through the ether to my bank? Nobody seems to know, but I'm fed up of living on plain toast so let's h...

That Reddit thread I linked to above includes posts by people who said they did get paid via bank transfer. I don't think us never getting paid at all is likely. The problem is that CC is switching payments processors right now, which apparently takes a few weeks. These events are certainly very bad...

I'll link to a Reddit thread where a little more information has been posted (albeit not by anyone from Constant Content themselves). https://yb.reddit.com/r/freelanceWriters/comments/hekxub/anyone_talk_to_constant_content_about_payment/ If you scroll down you'll see one user got an email with addit...

The one time I had an article rejected and purged, I definitely received a message about it, I believe by both email and as a notification on CC itself. Seems very odd what happened to you, I think resubmitting under the assumption that somebody at CC screwed up somehow make sense.

CC certainly needs to fix this since customers would justifiably be angry if they found that articles they thought they had bought exclusive rights to have actually been sold to other people as well.

I certainly don't know for sure, but I would guess that it has something to do with CC phasing out usage rights entirely. Maybe that policy is now by mistake being retroactively applied to old articles as well.

I sent in another email today, and they responded a few hours later saying they are using a new payment tool, which apparently made the system think I was already paid. So they said they would request a manual payment, which has now gone through. So all's well that ends well.

Lysis, could you explain that again? I didn't quite understand what you said. Thanks I think it means some other, third-party comes along and steals the text of your article from the customer who bought it. So basically if you see an article posted in multiple places, it is usually not the original...

Panic over. Time to go and feed those wolves at the door. Did you have to call them up or otherwise get their attention in some way? Because I still haven't been paid. My payment frequency is on monthly and my last paid date is still 10/3. The only unusual thing about this month was that a while ag...

Still nothing for me. Very frustrating and disappointing.
