Unfortunately, I have the displeasure of being partnered with Maker Studios. I signed a one-year contract, then was tricked into a second year. During that year, the payment threshold (AKA "we won't pay you until you earn us x amount") was lowered to $25, so I was a little confused when I had reached $40 and still not seen a payment. I recently passed the original $50 threshold and was told a payment had been sent. It had not. I wrote to them, wondering where my money was, and have been in an ongoing battle with them to get my payment. It has been almost two months, now, and I still have not been paid. I find myself writing to them weekly in order to get things moving along to the next step in receiving my payment. No one should have to jump through this many hoops to get money that they worked incredibly hard to earn. I am beyond livid at this point, and would more than love to file a complaint, but I fear what they would do to my channel if I were to do so, as every time I have contacted them regarding the issue, my videos come under attack out of nowhere.
