They may have had to do it like this so you didn't get 3 times the amount of referral credits already issued instead of 2 and future referral credits will be double what they used to be. I don't really know I'm just guessing but this makes sense to me.
Okay we still need someone to update to the new app who isn't beta to confirm how many silver you get for the old ads lile coastguard silk metropcs malty what etc. They ought to be 30 now.
Say I received 1k referral credits yesterday or earlier (worth 100mins yesterday) since my referral earned 10k. These will be doubled in my account today since my balance doubled and they were in my balance. So these referral credits are now really doubled to 2k which gives me the same 100minutes talk. So no problem there I am no better or worse off.
However if that same referral was a couple of days later and has not yet posted (billing period ends March 14th or later) then my referral will have a balance of 20k but only 10k earned. You should receive 2k referral silver at their billing end to be no worse off but you won't as referral credits are 10% of earned. So you'd recieve 1k. So only 50 minutes.
Thanks RJ that is good. So now we are no worse off since per ad silver doubled as well. That ad was worth 1.5 minutes before the change and now is worth 1.5 minutes.
I like the new app. It allows you to earn credits even when the screen rotates....no need to go to settings to close the app and restart (and loose the credits) as in previous version's bug. I am really rooting for this company to be successful. Even buying 9,000 credits for $10 is very competitive.
