  Someone in my CC just posted this. Turning off the Wi-Fi on my Android phone appears to be working so far. 20 videos and counting since I started a while ago. Been barely able to get 5-10 the past 3 days total. Might be a workaround until they figure it out.

  Okay... It looks like my area (West Coast) is also affected by this issue. The funny thing is that I get only one ad and then it goes off when connected with Wi-Fi, but runs pretty smooth without any interruption when connected with LTE data. Weird! 🧐

       I'm no conspiracy theorist but to me it has been painfully obvious that certainly in the last year at least, they are trying to  reduce the number of free credits available for all.

       I understand the credits for PC players have always been inconsistent at best but now have virtually been eliminated  for all PC players.

     The new survey system was better for awhile but not great, but now I have not qualified for a survey in 6 weeks!

  I do think they are making a big mistake if they squeeze the mobile players. Realistically how many players can survive on credits won and would be willing to pay 100% out of their pocket even if they could after being given free ride so long.

  Glad it worked for you too, dh.

  The free videos aren't really "free" anymore though since they consume data usage now. They eat up a very small amount but still... I just hope this isn't something permanent.

  I'm in Southern California and getting almost none. Today I got 4 vids and nothing else. Android phone and tablet.

  In a message to Nico concerning this, I was told that it is UK and East coast of U.S.  this morning when I tried again, alas a bit too late to maybe get them all.  Both Bluestacks and Nox emulators where not working, neither was my Android Samsung tablet, nor my Nokia phone.  But get this, my Amazon tablet, I was able to get some, until I stopped due to time.

  Can confirm it's effecting at least this person in the UK and the problem started last week. It also seems to be slightly better when not on Wi-Fi, so whether its an algorithm based on a users IP address or not remains to be seen.
