I do not necessarily think this is a technical problem, so I thought I would ask the HP Community if anyone has ever encountered this before.
This morning, when I checked my earnings, there was a certain figure there. I have been keeping track, so I have some barometer of the earnings from month to month.
About an hour later, I had earned 1 cent less than I had earlier. Has that ever happened to anyone else?
Yes I have seen the numbers change up as well as down. As long as the asterisk is there, it is subject to change. I think I recall a change even in a number that didn't have an asterisk once, but it was a minor one.
Thank you, MT. I did not see any asterisk, but that is most likely because the figure I was referring to was right at the top of my hubs - not in the earnings section. I shall head over there, to see if I can find the asterisk.
Moments later:
No asterisk in either place. Hm...
Oh, I see it - the asterisk appeared when I clicked on Earnings Reports. Thank you!
Yes, I've seen this before, amount you think you earned goes down.
Well, it gave me a good chuckle, at any rate!
So the lesson learned is - don't look, or it might drop!

My earnings have just updated for the first time in a few days. For some reason my Saturday earnings are showing as nothing. It also says I have 0 impressions for Saturday. Anyone else seeing this?

My earnings for Saturday/Sunday have just updated, both show $0.00, and no asterisk.Yet, I had a couple thousand views over the weekend.Please fix this, since it was the same time the views didn't update for 36 hours.

Is this a technical problem or a real report? There is no asterisk.

I know that isn't much earnings, but it's earnings. The pending asterisk was already gone.My earnings were $1.01 with no pending * next to it... now it took a $0.06 drop during the day, what gives?

Somebody turn that thing back around...I want it to go up not down.

Without being specific, my earnings increased tenfold, overnight. Is that a glitch in the system, or is everyone seeing that? It certainly looks like a glitch to me, but thought I would find out first, if that is happening to other Hubbers.
