    I have been permanently banned for a ***. It is McAfee *** which always turns on when you restart your phone and I wasn't thinking and played monster legends soon after restarting.I know this has happened to others and they've been able to fix it, I've contacted both social point and tapjoy multiple times and they refuse to help. This isn't fair at all. I've been playing for more than 6 years and I've now been banned for a mistake and they refuse to fix it. Please help. I don't want to have to stop playing. The offers are the only way to be fairly leveled because the game is overpriced please. I can delete the *** or whatever I just want my account back.

    I qualified for a large reward that Tapjoy did not honor. The offer required several hours to complete, and to buy the equivalent reward in the game I was using Tapjoy in would be over $100 USD. When I contacted customer service with screenshots confirming the transaction, they did not respond. When I followed up, I was banned without warning. When reaching out to customer service, they could not explain why I was banned nor overturn the ban, and did not respond to my offering of proof I had violated no rules.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    Tapjoy claims that "After a thorough investigation, we confirmed that the Customer provided invalid proof, which goes against our policies and led to the suspension of their account. We provided the Customer with the relevant details through their support case.

    1) In previous communications (attached), they stated that they "[did] not have any information regarding our methods or systems for detecting violations," so Im not sure what thorough investigation they were able to do.

    2) The words invalid proof were not mentioned in the conversation.

    3) If the so-called invalid proof refers to my offer to provide screenshots showing I had not been banned for an apparent reason, Tapjoy did not respond to my offer.  [In the issue of full transparency, I thought I had the full transcript of the in-app chat requesting I be rewarded for the offer I completed, but I do not.  Tapjoy is welcome to post the chat, as I am confident I was polite and did not break any rules.]

    4) If the so-called invalid proof refers to the information I submitted initially, Ive included it here to prove I met the conditions for the rewards I did not receive.

    I recently completed a game called Bingo Voyage on Surveys On the Go, administered by Tapjoy. There were multiple levels that you'd get rewarded for. Everything was working up until level *******. I completed 201 levels, but was never rewarded and have tried 4 times to get clarification from Tapjoy as to why I didn't get rewarded. They said that I didn't complete the offer and/or violated the Terms of Service. I submitted screenshots showing that I completed the offer and asked specifically what I violated, however they keep telling me the same thing, despite not violating anything. I was due a total of $150.47 for completing levels 120, 160 and 200.

    I've been playing a game [Fishdom] from my offerwall and managed to complete several tasks. Every time I reached and completed the requirements for a specific task I had to create a support ticket to get my rewards. Fortunately, this approach worked very well until I reached the last task. For some reason I was deemed ineligible for the last rewards despite that fact that I've received all previous rewards. Makes no sense. Also, I got an automated response everytime I created a support ticket that was eventually resolved successfully, but not for this last task. All my previous attempts have been reviewed and denied by an actual person [****] whom I received response emails from. There are two days left for me to complete this offer, so my hopes are quite low now.I'll leave some info I think might be useful and I will also attach several screenshots to facilitate the resolution of this case:Phone: ******* Galaxy S22 Ultra Offerwall User ID: **************************** Pending rewards: ******* Coins

    Upon review, we confirmed the requirements established by the offer's Advertiser weren't met, making us unable to process their rewards.

    Complaint: 23104779

    I am rejecting this response because: It just doens't make sense. "Rewards were not processed because the requirements set by the offer's Advertiser were not met." Could you explain to me then, why was I rewarded all previous rewards but not the last one? Which, of course, is the biggest one of all since it is in fact the last one I had to complete. Why was my support ticket suddenly reviewed by an actual person instead of the automated process which proved to be more successful? I already provided my information, I don't need to provide anything else. I request a thorough analysis of my case and a more elaborate explanation. I don't need vague responses. I need a concrete response with actual details and not some pointer to another dead-ended result. I spent a whole month completing this offer and managed to complete all tasks. I was well within the timeframe, I provided screenshots, I checked that the game ID and user ID were correct and I made sure I replicated what I did with previous tasks. I will give this one last try. Thanks in advance.

    We have reviewed the case again and confirmed that, unfortunately, the Customer did not fulfill the conditions specified for the offer as determined by the Advertiser.

     

    How were things left with the Customer?

    Since we cannot proceed with the case due to the conditions set by the Advertiser for the offer, we suggest that our Customer contact the Advertiser's Customer Support directly, as they may be able to offer assistance.

    On March 14, 2025, I was playing the Simcity game in which it was advertised that I would receive a double reward of 11, 577 sim cash. Upon making the transaction, I noticed that even after an hour no reward was granted. Today is March ******* and since then, despite sending all the requested proof, that the transaction was successful, still to date they keep drawing out the process by continuing to ask me for more ridiculous and irrelevant screenshots such as all the email addresses that I use simply because the transaction was processed on my iPad with my iCloud email and the transaction was processed with my Gmail email address. I sent proof of the email addresses and the email confirmations that I received as well. Not only do you have to wait for their response every 3-4 days but its so ridiculous to not receive what you paid for after sending them what they requested. They keep coming up with more requests to delay granting the reward. At this point, this is fraud and deception and I will not be trusting them again. I want my reward immediately, otherwise this will be escalated.

    I completed 2 offers on Tapjoy's offer wall, both of which I was told I was eligible to do and so I continued doing the offer. I began having issues with the apps crediting the higher amounts of rewards and so I reached out to Tapjoy **************** for support. I was then told that I was apparently "ineligible" for rewards despite me previously being eligible and doing all of the work to be rewarded.This happened for 2 games both by the company "*****". I reached the threshold stated in the offer within the given time limit. If the advertiser does not want to pay out, then these games should not be offered by Tapjoy. I spent a lot of time playing the game to only be told that I was ineligible with no further explanation. I also reached out for further explanation only for Tapjoy to tell me they'd already told me I'm ineligible with no details given, which is incredibly shady. My conversation IDs are ******* and *******.I am looking for compensation of ***** gems, as that is what was promised for reaching the goals that I achieved within the time frame.

    Complaint: 23088000

    I am rejecting this response because: I completed the offer as advertised by the advertiser, as shown in the screenshot provided. If I did not complete the offer, then I need to know additional details as to what exactly I did not do. This is false advertising otherwise and Tapjoy should be held accountable if they allow for false advertising on their platform. 

    I have already reached out to the advertiser myself and had 0 response from them regarding this matter, so it seems that Tapjoy does not care that it's customers potentially allow shady companies access to their device in hopes of being rewarded.

    Please either deliver the rewards that I met the criteria for, or please tell me exactly why I did not receive the offer. The offer wall said I had to reach a certain depth in the game and I did that. I was rewarded up until the amount of rewards started increasing and then I suspiciously became "ineligible".

    Hello, I downloaded the mobile game Ages of Apes and completed the tasks that were advertised by TapJoy in order to receive rewards. Although I did receive rewards for some of the tasks, there are 2 tasks which I have still not received any rewards. I have contacted TapJoy's customer service a total of 7 times with not a single response to any of these inquiries. I would like to receive the rewards for the 2 tasks that I have completed. These 2 tasks are: 1. I reached 5 million power and should have received ******* emeralds and 2. I upgraded my City Hall to level 25 and should have received ******* emeralds. Any assistance you can offer would be appreciated. Thank you.

    March *******, 2 separate orders equaling 15 USD. Was supposed to receive coins for pocket fm from a game and never received coins. Showed evidence of purchasing items for rewards and was basically today not good enough. It's the 3rd time this has happened. I received rewards for level up quests, but not buying from the games. It's wrong and im not the only one. I have already given up hope for my rewards. Just want to report them for lying. So that other people can see on here how they really conduct a shady business.

    Started playing Call of Dragons to get Mortal Kombat souls as rewards. These last several months, I've had to go back and fourth with Tapjoy about missing rewards. For this problem I bought the One Step Ahead bundle and didn't recieve rewards. They ask for a GPA # but on ****** receipts they don't SPECIFY what the bundle purchase is. They just show the date and price. I also reached Hall of Order 12and 17 they didn't issue my rewards. Have screenshots that can submit. I asked Tapjoy for the price of the One Step Ahead bundle, and they never told me. My game name is CitizenToxie and game ID is ********
