I have just raised the maximum deposit to $12,500.
Remember, this is a controlled growth so that every penny gets invested without delay.
The current percentage earning this weeks remains at 2% for 75 days.
Have a great week.

Hello Members,
I just wanted to give you a little update.
Current profit returns are 2% a day for 75 days = 150%
It looks like this will remain for the next few weeks.
Payouts: Current pendings are from investments that are still very much delayed. I am not sure as to when they will resume normalcy but I am told soon.
All new funds deposited are going into the stated new investments and are running like clockwork.
I apologize for the delays but in the real world things happen.
Anyway, when things get back to normal I want to throw a little 1-year anniversary calibration and show a little appreciation for your support this last year.
This will be in the form of a great give-away.
Stay tuned.
Well, I’m off for a couple of days and will be back by Monday.
Have a great week!
Regards, Travis

Hello Members,
There's not a lot to say but it's been awhile since I've sent out an email.
Welcome to all the new members the last couple of weeks. We're glad you are here.
Addressing payouts in pending. I know some have been pending longer than I wish. Most are remaining yet within terms, however. I am waiting for some large returns hopefully within the next 2 or three weeks so this should get everyone up to a 3-5 day waiting period. I know, like me, you may get anxious about your earnings but I can say you are definitely safe. Things just take time sometimes.
As I mentioned before, things will be shifting, probably in a couple of months. Might I add, shifting as always, for the better. I am in the process of developing a plan that will be 100% consistent with TOS and also will be raising the $5,000 limit per account. As you know we are NOT a ponzi, relying on new funds to cover old pending payouts. If this were the case we would have had to close doors long ago. No, we invest every penny into solid investments. By doing so we can continue to serve you for years to come.
I won't release the details yet for another month or two but it will be an exciting time for all of us. I will give you a hint, however. Monthly rates will vary according to previous months profits. Account max will slowly go up according to member deposit growth. Ultimately I hope to have a maxed account around $150,000 - $200,000. There is no reason not to as long as, once again, every penny can be invested and earning.
Oh yes,, for those who like recruiting or have a large down line base, referral earnings will be going up as well.
Our ONE YEAR anniversary is just two months away. My, where has the time gone?
I look forward in serving you for years to come.
That's about it.
Have a great weekend!
Regards, Travis

Hello Members,
You probably know or will find out that Solid Trust Pay has been having up and down time for a few days now. Please just sit tight until they come back on line and are ready for business again. I know they have been working long hrs for the upgrading process so just be patient.

Hello Members,
For those in the USA I hope you had a great 4th of July.
I just wanted to give you a little update. We are moving along nicely as usual. Some members in pending may wonder when they are getting paid. I would remind you that the terms are from 1-30 business days so everyone is well within terms as we have always been. Remember, this is NOT a ponzi, relying on new upgrades to pay pending cash-outs. This is a REAL business so please keep your thinking away from the HYIP or traditional Surf world.
You are getting quality advertising and receiving a nice compensation for doing so.
A SMALL CHANGE!!
I have deleted some plans and reduced the total plans down to two.
4% a day for 31 days = 124% and 7% a day for 19 days = 119%.
FUTURE CHANGE!!
To secure the future, stability and growth of Surf180 I will be changing up things in the near future to reflect most of Surf180’s earnings from TriVita. About 75% of your earning will be offline, from TriVita and the other 25% will be in other online investments.
For those who don’t live in the USA or Canada this is a great time to advertise your site on Surf180. With its’ portfolio you accentually will be investing in TriVita, a well established, 9-yr-old, multi-million dollar company. For more information go to Surf180.com and click on Start Earning a Six-figure Income Today.
Currently you are limited to 5,000 ad credits or $5,000. Because of our expansion to investing more heavily in TriVita you will see a substantial increase in the amount of ad credits you may purchase. As increases in deposits take place the increase in the amount you may purchase will increase. This will be a controlled growth method. The maximum per account has not been determined yet but I’m thinking it will be in the neighborhood of $300,000 (subject to change) depending on member growth.
To help with the growth your referral commissions will be increasing as well. Word of mouth is the best way to advertise and when you have something wonderful you just have to share it.
These are all things you can look forward to in the near future.
I hope this will find favor with the majority of members and new members as this will secure a well balanced, incredibly stable program for all everyone. Surf180 has been in operation now for almost a year and, like our original goal, we will be here for years to come. Yes, I will never promise the most bang for your buck but when all those other programs come and go, we will still be here earning you a secured future. In the long-haul the turtle will win the race.
Have a great week!
Regards, Travis

Hello members,
I'm making this short as we are all ready for the weekend. The site seems to be running fast again. I'm sorry about that. The ddos attack on the server caused slowness for several hours.
Don't forget about the 150% special running until the end of the month.
All pendings have been paid today so you can enjoy your weekend and I can have a little break.
Have a safe memorial weekend!

Hello members,
Well, as many have seen you have been paid your pendings. The funds are in and those who are left will be paid as well,, it's just getting late for me and am tired and need to sleep. I just wanted you all to know,, funds are here and ready to be paid. If not for the glitch a month or so ago I could do mass payouts but I have to manually calculate each pending and that takes time. I have under 25 pendings to do in AP and that will be caught up.
Also,, I have been thinking about whether to turn this into a auto surf site or not. I know the majority of our members prefer auto surf and surf180 is one of the few that offers manual surf. I also know the quality members prefer about the manual surf. So,, I have read and heard your responses in our forum and have decided to come to a compromise which I think all will be pleases. Instead of going to auto surf Surf180 will remain manual. However, I will cut to time for viewing. I have set it instead of 15 seconds to 5 seconds. This is not set in stone however,, but I just would like feedback whether this is too short or not. Does this give you time for the site to open and view. Either way,, you don't have to click next right away if you so choose to take your time on one site.
Let me know what you think in the forum, ok?
Regards, Travis

Hello members,
I have heard that some members prefer auto surfing as apposed to manual surf. I personally believe quality surfing for advertising ones' site or sites deserves the viewer to actually view the site. However, I also know that most are in this for the extra returns they receive and some could care less about that site they are advertising.
Let me know what you,, the member wants. Please give your two cents at our forum: http://mycashforum.com/index.php?showtopic=2202
Thanks a lot!!!

ello Members!!
I am proud and happy to say that every STP pending has been paid!! It looks like by the end of next week that all or most of pendings in AP will be paid as well. All pendings have remained within terms of 30 business days. Business days are Monday-Friday. (that is up to 6 weeks).
Even now,, the longest current pending is 20 business days.

Hello members,
Well, I just spent a few hours working on payouts from STP. Each pending has to be calculated manually as they are all incorrect due to that server glitch from weeks ago. I was able to knock down quit a few pendings until I had no cash to work with.
I thank you for your patience. Just a soon as I receive more investments back, I of course turn it over to pendings.
We'll get there.
Have a great weekend!!

Hello Member,
I thought you should have a little update this week with regards to payout time frame. As many of you know p2p got behind, currently paying from Feb. 4th. Much investments are tied with Richard who also is behind. I know he re-invested much if not all while the withdraw feature was off for those few days. This caused a ripple effect on many of us admins so we are all waiting. I know you are wondering a time frame and with what I have heard an extended 30-days has been mentioned in forms from the 4th so I'm hoping in the next 2 weeks or so but that is just my best guess. I'm sure things will get back to normal soon. P2P has not ever done us wrong so no reason not to be patient.
Have a great weekend!!

Hello Alert Pay members,
I was going to just email the members that were effected but there are too many. There was a glitch in AlertPay when a mass payout was made today and those in the list were paid 3 times. Please be honest and return funds not due to you.
Please check your AlertPay account. I do have the list of the errors but just send me an email that you returned the funds to: support@surf180.com.
Alertpay payout address is: payments@surf180.com
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello Member,
Two items I need to update you with.
1: the site was down for some maintenance last night. The IP was changed. Because of this your computer may have "stored" the old ID so you may have problems seeing the site or logging in. I was told by the programmer that the told change around the world may be several hours. It's working fine for me but if you have problems try refreshing... If that doesn't work try the following,, this will clear the catch in your computer's stored memory.
for windows xp
1. click start
2. click run, type cmd.exe
3.in black box that comes up type ipconfig/flushdns
then try site
for vista
1 click start
2. accessories
3. right click on command prompt select run as administrator
4. in back box that comes up type ipconfig/flushdns
then try the site
Item #2: Because of those two days of server downtime I know your calculations are off by 2 days. Example: if you deposited $10 at the end of the 17-day term you will only be cashed out $9 and something which, of course is less than you deposited. I will be looking over cashouts as I usually do before I make the mass payouts but if any look under paid, I will manually fix that. You can help tremendously by watching your cashouts and if your's is incorrect please send a support ticket,, please don't click on contact from the home page but click on support ticket from your back office.
I DO read all support tickets so don't think I missed yours when I don't respond right away. In order for me to keep the ticket open and viewable on my side I can't reply until I don't need to view the ticket anymore.
Payouts are within the terms but hopefully in the next 30 days we'll be back up to paying sooner. For whatever reason, slow time of year for all of us admins.
Have a great day!!
Travis

Hello members,
Everyone was credited for yesterdays' surfing and the cron has been enabled so your surfing for today will be credited at midnight.
Also, your ref banners are now working. That page was not moved so was blank. All monitors, please update your links.
Payouts are slower than I'd like but as investment returns come back pendings will be paid. For those of you who upgraded via E-Bullion most of you have given your STP account account. I'm just keeping your tickets open until your are funded but I have read all open tickets.

Hello members,
It appears that my programmer after adding 3 days of down time to the calculations forgot to turn the cron job back on. I sent a message over to him to turn it back on so hopefully it will be working for todays' surfing. Also, the referral banners are not working so I messaged him about this as well.
All tickets regarding this matter will be deleted as this is your reply.

Hello members,
After a late night, I believe we are again back up. My programmer had some problem getting everything on track so it took a bit longer and the site was up and down a few times.
I think we're good to go. He ran the script to credit you for 3 days so you should be fine with your daily returns up through Saturday.
Sorry for the downtime. The server was hit hard with a HUGE DDOSS attack and large amount of $ in damage.
No worries with your funds however,, everything is fine and backups were made.
Have a great week!

Hello members,
I apologize for the downtime the last couple of days. Apparently the server from our host was DDOS attacked. Here is a brief statement from the host.
The server with Surf180 as well as about 30 other surf sites hosted has been under a massive ddos attack since early am on friday. This attack is the largest ddos attack our datacenter has ever seen. They are working as quickly as possible to get a handle on the attack that has not only effect our server but over half the datacenter due to the massive size of this attack. We hope to have the server and all the sites restored sometime Saturday.

Well, it took a little longer than stated but we are back. All calculations should take place as usual at 12:00 p.m eastern so you are free to surf as usual. You have not lost any days, simply surf as usual.

Hello members,
For those who use E-bullion this is for you. I have recommended many times in the past to switch over, if at all possible, to AP or STP. For various reasons of member safety E-bullion will be phased out this month. For all current pendings in E-bullion, the fastest way to get paid is give me your ID and payment processor info either from AP or STP and we’ll get those funds to you that way. For those who do not have that option I apologize for the delay and I will ASAP exchange funds from STP to E-bullion where I will make the manual payouts.
I’m sorry again, the inconvenience but this was necessary.

This is to notify our merchants and members that www.solidtrustpay.com is now back online. We have been able to win over the DDOS attack in record time thanks to the combined efforts of our tech and security departments.
At times like this, it is perfectly understandable that people will panic, jump to conclusions, become angry, confused or even vindictive. It must be understood that no company, on or offline, can guarantee to be available and trouble free 100% of the time. Cybercrime exists and is as real for online companies as break and enter, robbery and theft is for brick and mortar stores. It is not the fact that it exists, but how quickly a company responds and overcomes such crimes. 3 currency companies have been hit hard by DDOS attacks over the past 2 weeks - C-Gold, Liberty Reserve and SolidTrust Pay. During our attack, we have found out who our friends and allies are and we thank them for their emails, phone calls and messages of support.
We want to reassure all members that SolidTrust is absolutely committed to protect accounts at all times.
Our email system is not yet back online, so if you have sent a support email, it may not be responded to within our stated 48 hour terms. If anyone has any questions or needs, you are welcome to use any of the following emails:
support AT solidtrust DOT info
solidtrust AT xplornet DOT com
solidtrustpay AT xplornet DOT com
We look forward to meeting your payment processing needs as we move into our 3rd year of serving you online.

Hello everyone,
As all of you STP users know they are still down. Funds are still going out to AP and E-bullion as usual.
If you have not heard the quick update from Stella here is what she said.
"Here's another quick update - we do expect the site to be back up within 24 hours....hopefully not much longer than that. All existing deposits and withdrawals are being done as usual, with no delay. Account verifications are continuing as well and continue to be within our 72 hour time frame for completion. Thank you all for your support, emails and phone calls of encouragement.
A life with no problems means.......you're likely 6 feet under!
Stella"
This was yesterday so I'm hoping by Monday things will be back to normal. Once that happens payouts will go as normal and when payments from investments come in.
TriVita is running smoothly as usual. Our group is growing steadily. New orders from customers purchased by our group are coming in almost daily. It's really neat to see the growth and know it's backed by a multi-million $ media company.
If you would like to give it a try you can follow this link: www.trivita.net
For as little as $33.00 you have the right to "buy" your downline or customers acquired from Television infomercials.
It's fun to see them order while you get a up to 21% commission.
Well, that's about it in the news today.
Have a great weekend!!

Dear Members,
Yesterday, at 2:00pm EST the STPay site began to experience an unusual slow down Our tech team thought it was a server issue, so began to check resources and do updates. We re-installed and upgraded the main server areas, but the issue continued. At 3:00am EST our webhost determined that a massive DDOS attack was suspected and preventative measures brought to full readiness. At 2:00pm EST today the largest DDOS attack that our webhost (RackForce) has ever seen was launched against SolidTrust Pay. It began in Indonesia but is now centred out of Bucharest, Hungary. Via various proxy servers, attacks are coming from other areas most likely by a large network of interconnected computers. Our webhost has blocked all access to the site until the attack can be stopped. The attack is so huge that it has affected the Shaw cable main trunk line (an ISP provider serving all of Western Canada).
As soon as we have determined that the attacks are completely blocked, we will open up access to the site again. We are working around the clock with RackForce and Shaw Cable to bring this attack to an end. ALL member accounts are completely safe. We ask for your patience and understanding while we deal with this onslaught of hatred against us. All major companies come under such attacks....we have been fortunate in avoiding a DDOS thus far and this one will be severely dealt with.
Any merchants needing assistance or any members with questions are welcome to use the following email addresses for communication. We do ask that only truly necessary emails be sent. You are also welcome to pass this message along.
solidtrustpay@xplornet.com (xplornet is our ISP internet provider)

Hello members,
To make money in a real business, you need "customers". I define a real business as one that will be paying for many years to come so we can disqualify hyip's, doublers, money games, private deals, 1-up programs, etc..... basically 99% of the things that you see on the internet don't count because they won't be around for years to come.
So the two questions are:
1. How do you "find" customers?
2. How to you "keep" customers?
With TriVita, they do BOTH.
They "find" the customers by running TV and Radio Advertising. They let us partner with them and acquire the lifetime commission rights to these customers while they handle the day-to-day details such as taking the customer phone calls, shipping the products, collecting funds and handling customer service.
They "keep" the customers ordering by sending them full color magazines every few weeks along with weekly emails.
Get more details NOW by clicking this audio link: http://www.byoaudio.com/play/WXQH1QcQ
So how can YOU AND I make money from all of this? I simply buy the commission rights to customers that TriVita gets from their TV and Radio Advertising. That's it. Very simple. Very profitable. Very stable.
Find out more with our no hype, just the facts information call....

Hello members,
I would like to thank those who responded in the forum in regards to which payment processor you prefer and why.
Most everyone seems to be very happy with SolidTrutPay.
I have not decided whether or not discontinue E-bullion but I will encourage everyone who can to please use STP or AP as these two are the safest processors to use.
As companies grow they change to adapt to the growth and Surf180 is no different. I thank you for your continues support as we grow together. I look forward in introducing some new things in the next few months that I think will much appreciated in the surfing community.
On a side note,, remember to allocate your credits to the sites you are advertising or your site can not be viewed. Once you do this you also need to assign how many clicks per hour (CPH) you want so that you can control your credit flow per day. You currently have 61.5 credits.
Until next time have a great day.

Hello members,
Thank you all for the emails wishing me a great Birthday. I did have a wonderful and relaxing one.
I asked the following question in the forum and would like feedback there.
I would like a little feedback on which of the three payment processors you prefer and why. The reason I ask this is most members are using AT or STP and very little use is made of E-Bullion. I have also read and heard that E-Bullion is giving many people problems similar to E-gold.
What do you think?
I am considering phasing out E-bullion for these reasons of safety to our members. Is it hard for members outside of the US or Canada to use AP or STP? I don't want to leave out our friends who are world-wide but if STP or AP are easy to use world-wide than I believe these are much safer for the members.
Please go to http://mycashforum.com/index.php?showtopic=2202&st=144
and give your input.
Have a great weekend.
