nope, i got 21 ads in total last 2 days and i haven’t got any bat for it. i even sent a message to staff with my wallet id, yet no answer. i don’t think i’ll get my bat that i should have for getting those ads , even when they fix the issue, i don’t think they will give back the bat people who didn’t got.

Hi everybody, sorry for the inconvenience here. We have made some server side changes to try and address what we think is the problem. Would everybody here please try restarting their browsers to see if ad earnings are increasingly properly? Thanks.

@jsecretan I am getting adds but the the problem is that the brave reward is not getting updated. The count I saw today’s morning is same as yesterday and I guess I saw around 20 adds yesterday.

What do you mean by “the error was gone when I restart the brave”? Your ads are getting counted again. Is estimated pending rewards is increasing?

I think my ad counter issue has been solved.  
As of approx. 8pm EST 09/24/2020 my counter began registering ads.  
I was stuck at 74 ads for about 10 days.  
I’m up to 94 ads in 24 hrs.  
I sent a DM to Mattches with the requested info and the problem was solved within 24 hours.

I really hope that everyone else with this issue is having the same luck as I am. 🙂

Do you got the BAT for the ads that came in the previous days? Like for 2-3 days back.
