I have been a member of Homepages-friends.com since last summer of 2008 and was supposed to receive my first payment on December 31, 2008 but did not. I emailed them about the matter and they say that they will look into it. Later on I noticed in my account that they had updated the pay date and so I waited for that date. The date arrived and still no payment. I emailed them again and received a similar response like you Rob. The date had been adjusted again and has now passed and still no payment. You are lucky that you got paid once because I never received a dime. I can’t believe they have a contract with Yahoo.

@cyrus: That doesn’t sound good! All evidence is pointing to the end of Homepages Friends. It would be nice if they proved us wrong, but it’s looking unlikely. Shame.

Same problem here. I tried contacting them, but the mail is returned with the following error:

SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:: host mailserver.homepages-friends.com [213.171.216.66]: 552 : Recipient address rejected: Mailbox message count quota exceeded, please try again later.

It’s a shame. This is supposed to be my first payment and I’ve been expecting it since November.

The “Next Payment” has been put back for a second time, and is now due “15-28 February 2009″. I wonder if the company’s been credit crunched?

I’ve had a response from Homepages Friends:

I am afraid the finance department are working through a backlog of payments which they are trying their best to work through as quickly as possible.

We ask that you please bear with us whilst we work through this backlog of payments.

I will chase the finance department to get your payment processed as quickly as possible.

Thanks for using our service and please tell your friends!

I’m not sure if she wants me to tell my friends I haven’t been paid, or tell them about the service!! I still won’t be using the MYHPF search until I get paid (as well as the other commenters).
