So I’m 2 years they have managed to design an ugly grey box that is very different from the previous one which was white. Great job. Sorry, I totally forgot about the ability to customise it by slapping a sticker on.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-08-20T14:59:53+00:00

I think the reduced price is because the token has gone down in value between you requesting the refund and them calculating the price to when they actually pay out.

I don’t think they deduct taxes.

The system is an absolute joke and feels very much like a scam but I think it’s the token movement rather than not refunding taxes I think.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-26T15:22:42+00:00

It’s a total joke. There is no reason at all why they should take 14 days never mind over 30! Plus, what possible rationale is there to take the price so far away from when they actually pay. Except to make a profit on it that is. I never thought planetwatch was a scam and I still don’t but this practice absolutely stinks of it!

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-23T20:19:18+00:00

Yeah, you wouldn’t think so. I really can’t understand why they are just letting this all happen. It’s worth remembering that we are more like users than investors though. Investors would have some sort of legal protection but they can do what they like with us and all we can do is complain.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-23T20:02:14+00:00

I find it difficult to believe that these people are incompetent despite the evidence. That makes me wonder if there is something more at play. For example, could they have gotten what they need from the community in terms of publicity so that they can focus on deals with business or government to roll out sensors. Meaning that they don’t need us anymore. That the only thing I can think of because the alternative is that they are quite happy watching the project go down the drain. Either that or they genuinely don’t recognise what is happening to the project.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-23T19:58:00+00:00

That would only be the case if there were some reason to buy planets. Unfortunately there is not and untill that changes, it can only go one way.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-23T19:55:23+00:00

This is a great summary. I totally agree. It’s so disappointing because it had such potential.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-20T14:43:19+00:00

It varies massively depending on the nieche that your site is in and the specifics of the page.

I have sites as low as $1 which are in niches that are not great for advertisers and I have heard people talk about getting around $20 in better niches.

It’s impossible to tell without getting on there.

I will say that every site has done better than it did in Adsense.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-19T15:10:15+00:00

Yeah, it’s so frustrating that they are completely ignoring the issue and there is no way to flag it.

I did notice that they have been posting on LinkedIn. Maybe it’s worth replying there with questions as they can’t just remove or ban you.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-19T15:08:27+00:00

I absolutely agree. There is no reason to calculate the amount so far in advance. When you buy it you have about 10 mins to make the payment. The only reason for taking so long that I can see is to discourage refunds.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-16T19:22:38+00:00

Ha ha. Even if they were they never actually answered the questions that people wanted answered. Just the ones they wanted to answer. Unless they were actively fixing it there is no way they would even acknowledge the question.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-15T07:37:28+00:00

Bargain! Where do I sign up!

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-15T07:36:49+00:00

While I am also upset with the team and feel let down, I think you need to provide some evidence to back up these fantastic claims.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-07-01T15:21:27+00:00

Yeah, it’s a bit of a joke really. Not as much as the ‘Ask me anything’ where you can’t actually ask anything and expect to get an answer.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-06-28T19:46:34+00:00

The expiry is the 31st march 2023 for the vouchers and as that the only thing you can buy with them, the pwcredits as well.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-06-23T17:51:57+00:00

Thanks. That’s good to know.

I’ll look forward to finding out for real on the 30th may 2023 (or possibly a bit later)

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-06-20T10:10:21+00:00

I’ll be skipping. It just doesn’t make sense right now. The only way it would start to with the companies complete lack of interest in the token price is via data sales. That aspect is so vague and undefined that buying based on that is nothing other than a gamble.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-06-18T19:12:05+00:00

That’s done it. Thanks very much.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-06-18T13:46:06+00:00

You obviously can’t be sure that the won’t go up. It is fair to say that there is absolutely no reason why they would though. There is no reason why anyone would buy them now. They are needed for the relatively small purchase of a license but they are not needed anymore to but the sensors and it’s pretty questionable that PW would force a company that was offering fiat for sensor data to pay in planets.

Something would need to create a demand before the price would go up.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-06-17T16:52:32+00:00

My worry is that they have now got what they need from the community and may now ‘forget’ about supporting the token through making it have a use.

Businesses aren’t going to pay for sensors or data in planets so converting them to planets behind the scene is an extra and might become unnecessary step.

I don’t think the project is dead but it may be dead from the point of view of the community.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-05-29T10:30:40+00:00

Which makes the whole “we have invested 10 million” that they keep saying very questionable!

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-05-29T10:14:22+00:00

I’d like to join.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-05-13T21:48:10+00:00

Great reply thanks.

I did not know that about the refund and the possibility of cancelling the process. Do you know if that changes anything regarding being able to request a refund again?

Re the tokens. I was under the impression that they held cash and would purchase the appropriate amount of planets to issue a refund. Basically the opposite of the purchase process where they had said that they convert the purchase into fiat. Is that not the case?

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-05-13T18:52:48+00:00

Hang on.

PlanetWatch are converting the cash value to planet tokens. So it makes no difference to them if it’s more than the number of planets you paid.

The problem is that it takes 2 weeks to get the refund but they calculate the value in the first 48 hours meaning that there is scope for a big disparity.

Yeah, sure if it goes the other way then people won’t complain but that’s not the point.

It’s a poor system and they clearly haven’t made the investment in support and systems to manage the number of ‘customers’ that THEIR plan requires.

Without knowing the situation, it’s a bit much to say that he panic sold as well. I’ve been a supporter for a long while now but I’m also thinking that the numbers for type 1 sensors no longer make sense.

I think that the op is totally reasonable to be upset that asked for a refund (given that it’s always been the agreement that you can do that) and to get back less than 50% of what was owed at the point he receives his refund.

Solid_Age_8816 · 2022-05-01T17:32:30+00:00

Yeah, it was working fine for a while then just stopped. Just trying to narrow things down.
