I am currently a university student. My goal in promoting is to support students to have AI to use. I created a survey for my own research paper and asked others to support me, and I will introduce them to comet as a reward and I will add them to canva edu
they actually did a big ban wave
why did they ban people
um did you talk to your universitiy's irb board about this you have a dual relation and ocnflict of interest. This breaks multiple ethical standards
VIolating program rules
ahh okay
something you did was seen by staff or hit metrics that resulted in the ban
Violating the rules by sharing my link with my friends or my social medias?
I have experience on affiliate for years and i know what it means to violate the rule
it depends on what you said telling users its too support you could cause people to download and not use it
People can do whatever they want after, my job is done my job is to bring users, i brought them my friends and after they login ask the first question it is not my job anymore
It doesnt say you need to keep the users
your job is to bring organic users not incentiize them
Broooo the comet assistant usage cap sucksss
There was a simple rule
People need to download login and then ask the first question, after that it depends on comet marketing to keep the user to stay on the platform
My job is to bring people to tell them look there is an AI site here
yall heard about what happened with gpt yesterday?
what happened
apparently israel sent ~$120M dollars to openai to make it pro-israel
woah
I didnt offer moneys to anybody for that, i just shared my link on linkedin and instagram and on messages
its to combat antisemitism buttttttt
Not true but isreal funded companies to pump the internet with pro Israeli content in hopes that LLMs would learn from it and provide more pro Israeli answers relating to the conflict/christianity/etc
see the require the users you bring are engaged users not just sign ups
Not much better tbh
ahh
yeah i wasnt 100% sure thats why i said apparently
Ya itās crazy
But it is not in my hands for the users to stay don't you understand that? They needed to do a bot that can choose if this referal is okay or not and not to ban un i didn't do anything fraud on this
they look at your metrics as a whole not one or two users
Perplxity gods pls give cheap max tier I need more comet assistant queries š š¢
Such a good browser but the limits are ass
Iām loosing my mind
well 1 I don't use chatgpt anyways 2 I don't have to worry about getting ban because I'm not dumb enough to cause termination
Oh girl in sorry but there is no referal that ive been workinc that after i made the sale i need to keep the user alive on that
do you have pro?
I need to promote it to users not to beg them to stay
Yes
I use pro and it works fine in my opinion
Anyways i need to go now, this was all a scam and good job on getting canceled perplexity, have a good days guys ā¤ļø
You must not use assistant much then
I did genuine things still they banned, seems it's a fake promotion campaign
Itās amazing for automation genuinely an amazing tool but Iām not tryina shell out 200 a month for daily workflow usage
I use it more than id like to admit but its not like my life depends on it so sometimes I try to limit myself so I don't get completely commited to depending on AI
Exactly abhi
Fair tbh I just automate rlly intensive stuff with it which burns thru my usage limits rlly fast
I didn't even know pro had a limit
Itās so good but Iām genuinley considering locally hosting an ai model and integrating it with a browser agent like browseros or use or something
If you mess around with it for like an hour youāll hit the limit
Ya I just open like 4 tabs with agents running it hits it mad quick
dang
Annoying asl I wish they had some middle tier for more assistant usage
its correct, if the product is good definitely people will stay and use it. we did our job
Thank you
Referral program is a scam
They banned me for no reason despite using authentic referees
And this is why I don't mess with promotional things that give me money because its too risky
Like I get the idea and I have recommended it to friends which they actually got hooked and pay for pro but I don't send out the promotional link
I never saw any referral that ive been working that says keep the client
Is there any way we can see this limit while we use the assistant so we have an idea of how many more searches we have
In a business context, a referral means an """introduction"""" of a new prospective customer to a product or business, typically by an existing customer.
I really hope thry get canceled for that
And timeout me again when i tell the truth
Anyways see ya, cya
I wouldn't wish that for any business it takes so much time and effort for these things to be created
But the fact that you are scamming your clients?
I'm sure there is some reason that falls on your part if your terminated
if not there would be a very VERY big issue they wouldn't be addressing
I didn't do anything badddd
If I did I wouldn't come here and say why they banned me
And it's not only me with this issue that's why
For genuine issues we are getting Ai based replies
I hope there is someone a lil famous with this problem so this can be big
Lmao getting scammed by perplexity was never on my list š
loool 4 eal
hmm
Startups used to do this type of BS
The whole ban things was ai thing
I think that was not human
We have a chance since we emailed them there will be a human re checking our referrals I HOPE)
gm guys
XD
Good Morning? holy its pitch black out for me
well I hope they go over their mistake and unban you
Thanks g
Anyways now i really need to go
Gn guys
Goodnight
#referralscam
They banned me tooo... without any reason...they mentioned illegal activity....but I did not refer to the same person again š„²š„²..it is just a scam to promote their browser
Hi
Lol that's what I said before they going to throw bullshit reasons to prevent giving away payouts pure shit ai company perplexity full fraud referral system
Time for negative PR
Spam #referralscam
They haven't mentioned it in their Terms and Conditions. Referrals are meant to introduce a new product to others. We can't force them to use it but we can make them just to try. It's their choice to use or quit.
Read the perplexity thread i posted earlier. it cites the pages on perplexity's website that list those estrictions. I didn't make them up.
And you can't expect them to pay for a bunch of sign-ups of people not actually interested in perplexity
I already got it for one year. u just need to link ur PayPal here: https://www.perplexity.ai/join/p/paypal-subscription
Comet android is cool
#PERPLEXITYFRAUD
WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE COMET REFFERALS , i spent so long inviting people just to get banned like whattttttššššššš
Why I be banned ? In dub
Are they actually serious? Like its such a scam if they continue with this
I just invate 4members, I don not cheat
#PERPLEXITYFRAUD
I do not cheat , I just invate 4 members, With 45 Clicks. Is this cheat?
thats the risk with referral programs they can decide to just not pay you if they decide so
they banned only indians , because they have some fu*king promlem with indians š©
it doesnt work bcz they only ban indians
I dont think it was only indians no?
for india they give 2$ and for us they give 20 $ ?
if they give same amount per refferel then many of indians doesnt use any vp*n
m*f perplexity
10X for usa people
and i know they also banned me from this dc server because the cant tolerate the fact
they only banned indians
Thats not even the issue , me and lots of others didnt use a vpn in the first place and still got banned
Send me a link to the thread if yall start one lol
Hmm
no thats the issue because if they give indians 20 $ then anyone cant use vpn and then all are safe , but when a lot of user using vpn then they just banned all the accounts without any reason
Is there anyone who didnt get banned? From india?
all indians are banned
I did
Same bro ... I also got banned. They just written fraudent activity and banned . Actually they are the one who are doing the fraud. I had only 11 referrals and they were genuine and real no bots no vpn nothing. But they banned me . #FRAUDPERPlEXITY
Same bro
same here write a mail to team support
you cant find any other country people who banned , they only banned indians
what the fuck gemini lol it got the citations right but did a completely random language and not my account language
fuck perplexity, fuck their referrel programe
i am 100% sure that only indians have the high amount of referrel , and lots of user from india but they didnt give us anything , f u c k mf perplexity
hi
Are they approving new perplexity partners FOR STUDENTS from USA
Umm, Perplexity, I need clarification
Hey everyone,
It seems several of us have been unfairly banned from Perplexityās referral program ā even though our referrals were 100% genuine. This feels really disappointing.
I think itās time we raise awareness about this fraud publicly. Letās share our experiences under a unified tag like #BoycottPerplexity to show that genuine users deserve transparency and fairness.
If youāve been affected, share your story (screenshots, emails, etc.) and letās keep things factual.
Agree
Reply to his tweet
Retweet this guys
They banned all account that have 30 days pending ending. So they donāt need to pay anything 𤣠𤣠š¤£
F u c k perplexity
I know it's coming, even my friend who is a perplexity campus ambassador (more than 200 referrals) is also crying lmao š¤£
I got bannned too
Ye most likely they found that u were cheating either fraud so u got banned
Who is here administrator of Perplexity?
Yeah, I have emailed them regarding the same,
Need some clarification...
I have shared the link on social, maybe someone did something š„“
my account only refer to 2 my friends , and got banned, fuck scammer
That can be the case if they use alt emails to do that
they won't to pay even only penny š¤£
what happend tho
? Please keep your word polite as iām trying to explain, they know what they did to get a ban from perplexity while the rest is being deactivated only and still having their money transferred
Hmm, let's wait for their final response...
If that's the case, they should only block those commissions that are suspicious,
Not entire account
I personally referred 15+ friends that are genuine,
At least those commissions can be granted if possible
I donāt see why this can be called a scam when everyone was trying to cheat off it, if uāre innocent with it please send a email to support@perplexity.ai telling them about your cases and bring along proofs that be used to help you
Canāt u read? Fraud detected
@twin grail
Hey my one of friend lives in UK he is in college right now
Are they approving new applications
As i could suggest him
They have the right to refuse all of the claim if their system found out that account was a fraud
Iām not sure about which countries still having the refer program opened but u can try
Hmm, You're right, but atleast least tell the user what went wrong
I have already received some of my commission, but the pending commission got blocked...
I mean the amount of users is way too many, even for me a max user emailing them about this problem still havenāt got a reply yet
So better wait for them to finish all of the work then we will get an official answer
hehe...
Haye gurbat
Max get priority support and should be in day btw, iām having enterprise max
Which they have an separate support channel
Cheer ghatan
Directly to the support team
So the same happened to you?
Lan khao perplexity
Mery 320$ kha gaye bsdk ai waly
U donāt understand the problem, not everyone receiving that email, 70% of them are ā Deactivated ā, in this case being banned means u got caught either cheating or fraud
Uh no, I donāt do refer program but i was curious about which account is eligible for receiving the money, an active pro plan or an active paid plan
Stop acting childish
what even happend, i see alot ppl typing about scam but for me all right, only problem i had was referal system, i invited some ppl but after like month referal system disappeared from my account settings, i got not ban and etc
They donāt train the model btw, u can disable it in your pplx account and Comet doesnāt use ur data to train, for proofs iād say u take ss of people u refered like a convo of u and them
Keep your head cool and solve it, donāt act like a child same as the guy spamming which who know language saying fuck perplexity
In short, many people became greedy and they want to take profits from this and eventually they tried to cheat off the program, pplx close it down and begin scanning for fraud, all of their money are on hold so they just now assume pplx is a scam
hell, pplx already giving too much power for just 20 bucks and ppl still want more, thats so weird
Haha. I only reffer 2 my friends use it and i got 20$ pending for this and now account bannned, what the fuck?
pplx dont even have any limits of using models while anthropics for same cost giving u just 30-40 hours of work with their models ;p
Fraud can be from many perspectives, for example if u try to change ur country for a better money affiliate, this can be counted as a fraud too
That means punish everyone
Thatās the point, they just think that they can trick a huge company in giving them 2-3k$ without realizing they just ruined the fun for everyone
I recommended it to my friends at school - and they all did the thing properly with me there, but I was still banned
Yes i know i would be frustrated and thatās why i told u to try to keep your head cool
You mean Perplexity was paying users? Like, when someone bought a Pro or Max plan through their referral link, the referral owner got a percentage of that purchase?
Uh no the comet refer program one, it ended btw
Itās a whole long story
they was paying or not? thats only one thing i cant really understand
Itās not about what they offer for such an affordable price ā itās about keeping their commitment. If they couldnāt provide the referral amount, then why promise it in the first place? And if they never intended to give it, why advertise it at all?
My knowledge isnāt wrong my man, what i was saying is most of the case when u got banned itās because the system decided that uāre a fraud, but in some cases scenario it can be wrong so just email them and kindly explain it, they will reactive the account for u
Iām not talking about myth, some dudes yesterday were spamming in here asking where is my money and dmed me about it
I checked his account and referrals, it was all cheated
Using proxies and vm
good day fam
I donāt judge u guys, but all iām saying is getting ban is most likely those people were a real fraud, if you didnāt do anything wrong just email to them
I see, thatās weird though. But itās easy to understand why people got into PPLX because many wanted an easy way to make money. I donāt really understand why they even started that promo campaign, but I can see why they ended it and banned many people.
They was paying
For people u refer to using Comet
Can you check our accounts
But as i said, things got out of hand
i see, thanks for answer, thats really weird way to promote comet tho, but thats really easy to see why they banned alot ppl ;p
Perplexity did a huge fraud everyone knows now
Ye, iām a beta tester of comet and used to send invites link to everyone
But it was different back then
Okay switch side, do u want to pay 5m$ for cheaters who cheated the program which were meant for everyone to promote ur product ?
I donāt think so darling
Shutup You know nothing, why are you behaving like the CEO of this company?
I donāt say u, iām telling about the real one who cheated?
100% u got that for maximum 1$, why u even talking
Wow crazy talk, keep spamming for free money ig they will notice, iām out of this swamp
Mind you own business
okey, find way to aware cheaters then, like if theres tons of ppl that just cheated in system, what the point, im pretty sure 90% of all money pending just cheated
Fix ur english
Yall should just chill lol
They just lost their mind about it lol
English is not my native language sister. I hope you still understand. Just keep your mouth shut when u don't know anything
We will remains in shackles in inf more years
True, PPLX is an awesome service. That was just one mistake they made, and people forget that PPLX gives one of the best AI experiences for a really low price.
Oh wow nice, i see that u understand better than me then congrats, good luck finding a way for ur money
After all uāre better than everyone
Even ur english

Thats not what I'm talking about.
Even if there's an issue with bans or whatever, it's not getting solved by arguing on discord
Thatās the whole point btw, i told them to email pplx
Well then fair enough
It shows that you have nothing better to do than sit here all day and talk nonsense

sure, but donāt you think PPLX is actually a really good service? They done a lot of good things, but people still focus only on that one mistake and call them scammers.
Get a job
thats weird
The mistake isnāt by them btw
also true thing
True that their system for fraud detection is kinda uhhh.. but it most likely because of people
As u can see throughout the chat

They donāt want to understand for 2 sides
They only want from their side
Which can result in smt like this
hello \
more like theres no way to detect real cheaters, or they used to check real activity in comet by refferals, like someone said he did that with his parents pc, im like 99% sure that comet on it never was really used
Sonnet 4.5 Thinking
Crazy talks

hi
They did say that they will monitor
To check for any fraud
Soā¦
most awesome model for coding ;3
hmmm yummy
Heyy slice me some ramens
I got 30 referalls so ramen for all u
holyairball
ah i see, can i check it?

chill, ai nowadays is really good even for zero skill developement, im using pplx pro and claude code max atm, i will switch to perplexity max if they will get CLI version
nano banana still impresses the shit out of me
Yeah, really good. I tried GitHub Copilot too they all nice, but Claude Code is the best right now. The weekly and 5-hour model limits are annoying though. If Perplexity get official CLI, i definitely switch to it 100%
Crazy how good editing comes out in such a low output time
i didnt really got wdym, my eng is kinda bad tho xD
heyyo folks
it's the best image gen model...
I think that more of an architecture problem than your fault. Im also had projects that I couldnt even understand myself because of bad structure. It always better to make everything well organized from the start.
or just spend more time to understand logic
maybe someone will say thats bad, but i always ask GPT 5 to read my idea and give me right project archy before start coding it
Hi I'm new
hello
C Can you please provide contact information keksu?
ah nickname ;p
i ahve a question
Why should i use comet over the new chatgpt browser or the now the fully gemini integrated chrome like what is perplexity doing unique so i stick with it??
Hey
hi
I have no idea
hmm ok
I can't ping him

How to perplexity code projects?
wdym?
.........
I mean everything in channel #šācool-projects is usually coded with perplexity
not, theres just cool projects that ppl made, not only using perplexity, theres also full self coded projects
Like posters and apps everyone makes
thanks i'm also learning vibe coding so i wonder how they are coded so well
not all of them are vibe coded
But it's cool to look through them
I want to be able to make something and I think this December I'll be able to make it
Idk
Yes
Really?

AFAIK, anyone who used a VPN or temporary email to create an account got banned. I know it's their referral program and they own it, so they have every right to change the policy. In my humble opinion, they should deny only the suspicious commissions instead of deactivating the entire account. The same thing happened in my case, I asked my friends to sign up, shared the link on my campus, and if anyone used a VPN, my entire account was deactivated. I wasn't responsible, but since the fraudulent referral came through my link, they have the right to do so. Also, I have emailed them regarding the same let's see š
u must understand being " banned " and " deactivated " is 2 different thing, if you got an email saying ur account is deactivated which mean that the program is stopped in ur country/region and your pending money still being reviewed by them and will fully be paid once the verification is complete
Also please acknowledge that if they found out smt fishy or u were flagged as a fraud then they got the right to deny ur claims
Is comet released for Android
early access only as of now I guess..
@oak dome Noob
How to apply for it
No idea. I just landed on Discord today after a while to look for the same.
Ohh
Hii
Scam bro, i got banned and its only 3 leads all from my friends
Yes exactlyā¦
I got paid to my bank for completing some bounties !
This is not a scam actually.!
They are doing what they promised !
tell me your pplx ID and I will show you how to get that mail
Lets blew up this on the internet
Wait I use a VPN sometimes (Tho I only use the windows browser.) Am I also at risk?
IMO Anyone who signs up using a VPN through a referral link may result in the ban of the link owner from DUB ACCOUNT. Additionally, some users attempting to earn more commissions through VPNs may also face account suspension.
I didnt use a referral link or non. So I think Im good? I also aint gonna try earn commissions through perplexity so hopefully im good.
yeah I also thought the point is for people to experience the browser
and be downloaded in as much devices as all
In India Gpay has this kinda partnership so thats how I got pro for free.
Just check for the mail, if it's not there, then no need to worry š
Alright nice.
Sooner or later you will get a banned email mate.
Indian and Indonesian almost 60% got banned email today
What? How so? Why are we getting banned?
I aint using referral codes or none. So I dont have a problem if I get banned from that but.
Why anyway?
they don't say the full story. Fraud is the main reason
So are we getting banned from using all perplexity products or only the referall things?
They aren't banning people for no reason, cheaters and fraud are the one being aimed atm
Uh no please don't spread false information
They only got ban from getting the money from the refer program
They told me that I would get banned I was just wondering.
that's all
^
uh no that's fake
Thank god so Im safe.
I dont even use the referral program.
Anyway on another note. How is everyone doing?
No one will take my lamen from me! 
gimme some lamennn
Wild.
If you join the Campus program mate, if not you wouldn
The heck is the campus program?
That's not the case as the campus program had been stopped in India also due to fraud
You know what as long as I dont get banned Im good.
They announced it in the Campus partner server
I love the browser.
Alr.
I love it too
If my referrals are revoked im calling Mr. Perplexity him self.
Then we shall feast our lamen
Because the assistant can actually read the PDF's unlike another browser. (Cough Cough Edge.)
Humm, same as you mate. (Cough lightweight too cough)
š
Makes more sense now- I forgot this is a server related to AI š
??
amazing browser
haha i can't write everythin on my own
I'm not sure if this is the correct channel for this question, but does anybody know if it is possible to deactivate the Menubar icon for the Perplexity App?
Kfc strip
can you describe this image im blind
Chicken
oh cool lol
its a edited image of a chicken making him look extremely skinny.
he is standing in some kind of cement brick (I have no clue on how to describe this)
so yeah, chicken
interesitng, i often use perplexity and othe ai apps to identify images, they're really good at reading text so it's helpful when filling my meds container for the weeks knowing which pills are what haha
Ngl I like perplexity but trusting it to organize my meds would be craaaazy haha
i wish discord would have alt text for the gifs in their if picker. like its used over and over just add alt text
most of my med names start with a different letter. So it's unlikely to confuse buspar for ativan etc
anyone got their bounty?
Wait I thought u were joking. š
waiting for the 30 days still
@coarse dome how do u type
i only take two three high risk meds. Insulin which is a vial so hard to confuse, lithium (NTI so taking more than a few pills extra could be really dangerous) and lorzepam which has a seperate cap and is stored away from my genearl meds. too much lorezepam could quickly stop your breathing and kill you but i have enough precations to avoid that
No i am actually blid see discord bio
Has anyone here NOT been banned from the referral program?
I tough type like evveryone else. It's kinda hard on my phone but voiceover givces feedback but its still blindly using a touch screen so... as for my laptop its just a qwerty keyboard i haven't looked at the keys sinc primary school and I am working towards a graduate degree currently in pscyholgoy
many blind people using a braille display and type with a perkins keyboard which lets you type by defining the braille cell its like
But that fast
I know very little braille and am still learnig
i had 20 refferals in which 12 were active and 8 were one time users but still i got a mail of getting banned. anyone else also got this??
yup i am a faster typer š
I can do 100wpm with 90% accuracy if i try hard
Anybody?
what do u mean by menubar icon ?
Thatās insane idk if i could do that
well htyping all my notes since primary school helped a lot needing to be able to transcribe my teachers in real time
you'd get fast too haha
i recommend pretendin there is a tennis ball under your hands when you type it reduces starin and pain from long typing sessions
so theres a lot of space under your hans and they are kinda like spiders. Then just stare of at your montior or close your eyes and type just think about the words you want to type next you wreally shouldn't be visualizin the keys just let muscle memory do its thing
I mean i can sometimes type not looking at keyboard, but u are good
I see how it can be possible, but itās crazy that u barely make mistakes
most of my mistakes are due to dysraphia a neuro disability that affects writing, typing, basically non-bverabl communication, oral speech isn't affected. I sometimes type a word that starts with the same letter but is completely unrelated due to a misfire in the brain and only realize later.
anything else just like character issues is picked up by my screen speaker speaking to me three times as fast as a human it can be a lot to keep up with
Iām not banned
idk about others but I just got banned for "fraudulent activity" š
Do I wait for that email or am I safe
someone I know was banned 2 days ago
Maybe theyāre still on their way
I think they spent too much money.. or else nothing makes sense
did they even pay someone yet? š
Besides that
those who got the money congrats.. maybe its like $10~20.. I got over $900 vaporized
I remember some people buying referrals hahaha I wonder how their day is going
haven't been banned yet... I'm afraid of losing my $1,800
I hate the fact that I really promoted the browser so hard in person to everyone around me and even strangers with this link. Now I am the fraud, the link doesn't give any pros but a browser that doenst work with assistant mode without pro
L
Maybe they were not expecting people to refer more than 10 people
For the past few days, the AI model used by Perplexity has only been able to retrieve domain names from the list of internet search results provided by Perplexity, and has been unable to obtain the full links. As a result, whenever a user requests the full links in text form, Perplexity provides fabricated, fake links in its response 100% of the time.
perplexity program is trash, they need free promotion from us
All of a sudden they banned me and cancelled my payout
100% father less behaviour
Even provide some explanation
many of us are being banned from the referral program
Hey how can I get the pro tag next to my discord name? I'm already a pro Perplexity user but still have not received what I deserve.
What's the way to have this?
Sue them lolol
we can't fight them... can we?
u can check pinned
Well u guys can spread words in social media
Seems like they are aggressive with the active user requirement lol
Morning!! More people on banned team
Im saving water by not using perp for 10 days
Welcome to the club
Cool pfp
Im saving space by deleting comet
Lmao its an albanian meme, now I can expect the perplexity collab too š
We should also delete blackholes so they dont swallow our place
I wanna experience a blackhole tbh
I agree but I believe 20 - 30% of the users I invited were actively using comet
what about them?
It's impossible that every user I invite will use it
Gravity will kiss you so strong that your mind will stop working
So nothing to experience š
šš
At least thry needed to check all referrals
Like thats how it works
or if not leads could've just paid the bounty...
Ahahahahaha
I wish
I got the 10$ from linkedin only š
good for you
And i cant even payout that cuz its less than 1000 albanian lek (827 lek)
Did you complete the 100$ bounty
Yup but got banned
Lol i laughed so hard
Hey Thanks Man! Eventually got it..
basically they scammed the users
R we allowed to talk about other ai?
No this is north korea
Now, you can't even withdraw the linkdin bounty??
Exactly there was someone here yesterdat debating about this with me bc she said oh you need to keep the users active
Very scary place sir
I'm sorry but i need to introduce it to users not to keep them active
Btw i got chatgpt free and they take my data in exchange
As i said before in any referral program that i have been there ia no one that says you need to KEEP THE USER ACTIVE, thats in their hands with their marleting, my job is done by introducing to them
Same but idgaf, i will delete my account
I better use gemini
NOW I GET IT
They first paid users 10$ to build the trust
and scammed with their next referral program
At least they not scamming users for a free yearly pro
Yes
Also better features like nano banana
When did ppl get the $10
its a month
Exactly! Piramidal thing, pay you first to make you think oh wow its real after that they just ban you
pro is not even good compared to regular version both are same
are you serious? Google offers it for free
Lol
I need to find a lawyer cuz i hate the fact that they scammed us, i might take legal actions and idc about the moneys at this point
Guess i am girl or boy
I didn't realise coz im on 1 year student plan
But ig veo isn't free
Both?
Ladyboy
I want the pro one for coding and testing only and for the storage
need to trend this on X
Nope
Fr bro so weird
Im sensing that perplexity won't survive in long run
They jus pranked u
if you are a student everything is free bruh
Gemini Pro - free
Chatgpt Go - free
Yes please do it
Airtel user from india š„
I've been using both for studies and it made it easier to learn ..good times
If you have them you also have veo
But leftists they yell at me

Any from western Europe/US got banned?
I got one payout from sales pending
Has the bug with the Sonnet 4.5 model been fixed? I'm also interested in a comparison of that model with GPT-5. I mostly use Perplexity for explaining programming concepts and for writing general code examples, so I'm wondering which model would be better for such tasks.
Hi
This is how Perplexity plays around with its affiliates? Those whoāve worked hard to promote its products across various media. Including me, who has shared Perplexityās products on my website, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook. And in the end, I only got the word āBannedā from Perplexity. When I emailed to ask for an explanation, it was the AI that replied. Very, very ironic. #Perplexity
I didnt get banned my perplexity pro is still working
Yes it's been fixed
https://www.reddit.com/r/perplexity_ai/comments/1orar1a/update_on_model_clarity/
The problem is that just because a few people cheated, everyone got banned. And those who played fair are the ones who suffer. Damn! Thereās no further explanation; everyoneās treated the same. Just wait until the community starts giving your program bad ratings.
"Everyone" did not get banned. People have been paid
Yeah, the team was only able to pay a few people, those under $100. Anyone over $100 got banned right away. Damn.
the ones legitimate will get paid
Hello everyone,
I'm having an issue with the Perplexity Pro image generation credits.
I've generated around 50 images in my current session, but I keep getting a "Image generation rate limit exceeded" error.
According to my plan, I should be allowed between 100 and 150 image generations per month.
Has anyone else faced this? Or is there a way to check my exact usage and quota?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
How many times can the proxy mode be used per week and per day?
You've reached a rate limit as stated there. It could go away in a few days (limits tend to be on a rolling window; you could get a couple more uses in a day or few) or take longer.
Not sure where you got that 100-150 limit from, as the limit isn't stated anywhere.
With pro you unlock access to limited amount of high-quality images, plus additional medium-quality options.
lets not use comet and perplexity from now on
Hi.
WHATS HAPPENING
ID DONT EVEN KNOW THE REASON
I understood your painš
"That shouldn't be a problem, bro, if you are in the US and your referrals are in various countries. And the team should know that, because we live in a digital era. We post on social media where all countries can definitely see our posts, especially when we use direct tags to the related event."
"And what you said is true. They genuinely have no intention of paying; they are just seeking popularity and fame from the affiliate event."
"Earlier, the team said they had paid some people, and yes, that's true! They pay those below $100, but anything above $100 is immediately banned. So unlucky."
"So we're just wasting our time promoting this darn event."
when did the team said they paid some people
people got paid...
I think the payout account is the issue for his case, like the bank connected in your stripe account.
Bro i have a lot of friend in us and i live in albania?
Are thry crazy
They literally told us to post on linkedin i have worldwide connections there
guys you know they told that if your refferals are actively using paid then you will be paid
Guys how tall are you all?
Hello, Iām encountering an issue with Perplexity Pro. I was a Revolut Metal member, which granted me access to the Pro version. Recently, I upgraded my Revolut plan to Ultra, and I received an email informing me that my Perplexity Pro membership had expired. I attempted to reactivate it through the Revolut app, but I now encounter an error stating that the code is redeemable for new users or something similar. Could you please advise me on how to resolve this issue? Thank you.
dont be mad bro when you faked your referrals and didnt get paid
real ones who followed all rules will get paid unlike you
there is a friend of mine who got paid 1000 dollars so yeah fakers got dumped
lol i did 4$ from my friend and got banned, the acc was deactivated at first...
were you actively using comet ?
As someone with 13 refs, they had simple instructions, that was to install comet and make a search. If there was more than that then thatās misleading. 99% of people donāt read the T&Cās . Idk if all of my referrals used comet actively but I did.
kuch toh gadbar kiya hai
yes
Hmm there might be instances that the people referred has the same IP
yeh same
well Iām not banned yet xd
i think there will be more rounds
at least iām mentally prepared for that email to come
thats the right mindset
so you want more people to get banned ?
bro dont be that guy
bro wdym, thats my prediction
stop then
cuz some ppl got banned like a week ago
stop the negativity
how can you get the pro rol
Check pinned
anyways i have the 200 dollar 1 year sub so i wont get banned

@vague pagoda not getting the Pro tag after going through steps. Help?
i love comet ai but i hate the browser. It's UI is so ass. So laggy and seeing it gives me trauma
Gm, I received an email yesterday saying the following:
"You've been banned from the Perplexity Partner Program for Fraudulent Activity.
All your links have been deactivated, and your pending commissions have been canceled. You cannot apply to the Perplexity Partner Program again."
I was running digital marketing campaigns, invested quite a bit of money to generate around 1700 leads... some of them created their accounts with "emails generator," and while I understand those can be considered null or non-payable, I don't see why they considered 100% of my leads fraudulent... the null ones are around 20% of the total... so they should still pay me for the other 80%, since those are REAL users who are using Comet all around the world.
However, instead of taking the trouble to verify which ones to pay me for and which not, Perplexity directly opted not to pay anything at all and to immediately remove me from the program.
I sent them about 5 emails, the moderators here didn't answer any PM, and frankly, I think at this point all I can do is post this statement so everyone here can read how this team likes to scam people.
I invested around $8,700 USD running those campaigns to have a pretty low profit (I think it was something between $9,500 and $10,000 USD, and it should be lower because of the "fraudulent" ones, and I agree those shouldn't be paid).
Anyway, thanks for nothing Perplexity, Iām going to contact lawyers to see what I can do so at least they stop scamming people. Regards.
yoo
do you really want me to put it on support? You didn't even read what I wrote; NOBODY answers me through support, I've been sending messages for a month and the only replies I've gotten are from that cocks**ker Sam.
welcome aboard buddy
ya'll got banned too?
yup, they just can't handle this
hollyyyy shit
naah we need answers!!!
Same here , 290 usd for whcih i worked my ass off
#ban comet browser
fr
The saddest part of this is that I didn't even use terms that included "comet" or "perplexity" in my keywords... these were campaigns with a lot of effort, optimized to get you quality leads without taking away your organic traffic. Honestly, it's very sad ā I thought you were a serious team.
I am facing an issue with comet wherein all of my tabs go inactive on their own. How to fix this, why is this happening.
@vapid slate if youāre actually taking the legal route , lmk if i can join and be of any help
Yeah, 8 hours passed, still waiting for a reply...

Leave comet browser
Lol
They wont reply as far as i knowš , i mailed them when the links were disabled and still no reply
Like 10-12 days ago
I'm already on it, I want to at least give them the benefit of the doubt, but if no one contacts me within the next week, I'm going to make a mess.
completely understand your frustration, and I want to assure you that your concern is valid. however, our mail support team is currently overwhelmed because many users have recently misused the program or attempted to game the system.
as a result, every case now has to be reviewed manually, which takes additional time. we kindly ask for your patience during this process, all legitimate users who have followed the rules will receive their rewards accordingly
The issue is setting up a new browser then importing all of your content & beginning from scratch!
Could we get a confirmation on a reassessment for unfairly banned accounts
I feel like that would help this case
Mares, I honestly understand this 100%, look, I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM waiting another 2 months if you need it, really, I don't mind.
If you need more time, just say you need more time! Because you just banned me without saying anything and don't reply at all... why do I have to pay for the mistakes of other bastards who tried to cheat the system by committing fraud???
yeah because doing all of this, waiting like 2 months and then getting an email saying we're frauds doesnt really help
exactly
BS really
@serene sand please make an official statement about that and send us an email about it so that we can believe

donāt complain to Mares, heās just a simple mod doing what he can, here the fault lies with the Perplexity team.
Anyone needs some math, physics, engineering, bio chemistry notes? dm if yw
hello
indeed, all complaints related to this program are handled exclusively by our mail support team
Yup, i already did that, and nothing happen, that's why i came here XD
understand, but you cannot buy fish from the man who sells vegetables š
You're making it hard for me to defend you, man...
Guys, all of you shout at mares right now
is there anyone who is not banned yet?
me
how many people did you refer?
are u from USA?
no india
They paid you?
it was sent to stripe
Congrats boy
thanks!!
no way they are paying you if those 150 are not using comet actively š
Asked GrokAI about the current situation and received this reply š
(End part of reply)
idk they are using or not but im aware that i didnt do any fraudlent activity
No way hahaha
neither did I, even I got banned for "fraudulent activity"
At least you didin't invest 8000 Usd to gave 1800 leads to those bastards and still get banned
Few days back my frnds got banned they have like 2.5k$ revenue
Neither we did brooo..but we got bannedšš
No harassment, hate speech, or malicious behavior. Keep things positive and constructive.
I mean it's not fraud, as I have received $10 as part of the LinkedIn bounty, but the remaining amountāand that $100 bounty, went poof due to those suspicious referrals...
Only few country as USA, Korea,UK.,, account still pending without banned, rest all banned even only 10$ pending. I think soon they also banned alll without pay anything. This is big scam company
I can feel u bro š
You mean only USA,KOREA ,UK referrals are valid...and remaining referral š¤”
I was sure 70 to 80% of my referrals won't be using comet as much.. I can't force them
but I didn't know they will ban me for that
for not inviting active users
Where exactly is this mentioned?
earlier if you google Perplexity Referral Program they mentioned they expect high quality referral
on their help center site
I think thatās the Campus referral T&C
U got no proofs to say that btw, my friends got their pending money so keep your word right instead of spreading false information
Agreed
I believe it does not matter if ur invite was actively using comet or not
If u did not do any fraud then youāre just unlucky
Those countries u mentioned are still active in the refer program, the rest are closed and now as mares said they are reviewing the refers to make sure it's legit
I don't get the point of people don't understand that it's due to the fact that the community was so greedy that they tried to cheat and now when Perplexity have their rights to ban the fraud, they act like they don't know anything
who's mares?
mod
I can be sure that most of the people saying pplx scam in here somehow cheated in that program
There was a vietnamese dude the other day dmed me about this
even he admitted cheating in the program
this just sad tbh
not everyone cheated right
not everyone but you know the fact
Or they were unaware that they cheated. Ex. you referred 2 diff people but they use the same IP and wifi
No he intended to cheat
ffs the model router bug is back again. Keeps rerouting gemini 2.5 pro to GPT5.
using proxies + vm
that isn't unaware, even himself admitted to me telling i cheated to get more money
Yea, ik. I just provided a possible thing happening that couldāve triggered things
I think the best course would be just voiding those referrals (if its a few)
oh no it isn't
exactly what if your relative has one wifi but two computer
and you tell your cousins to download the browser and boom your perplexity comet is done for
Social medias been reposting thousand of posts about that refer program
they even shared how to get ur refer up
by using temp email
this way it's very hard to "not cheat"
The referral program ended in every country a couple of days ago
ah i see mb
believe it or not Perplexity did scam
maybe, maybe not
otherwise if someone emails you, just tell the users what "fraudulent activity" he did
Thats why i dont take part in any referral program and stuff
So strict it will take eternity to get like a few invites
Or just get banned before that
Mat my friend requestttt

oh mb
when is comet releasing in ipads

Hi, i was invited 3 friends from university, they are accepted theirs students status
But i have not adding 3 pro (education) mounths
They was downloaded Comet with my link too
But situation is the same...
How can i fix it?
Exactly
They encouraged us to refer ppl in clg and then ban ppl bec of same IP
Like 90% ppl have gotten ban if i am not wrong
I haven't done anything fraudulent
But i referred a few of my clg friends so they obviously had the same IP bec they used college wifi
Am 99% sure this is why I have been banned
But they literally told ppl to persuade classmates to download comet with our referral link
hi
Aye
Raiden Shogun?
They want you to refer some random dude from another planet
Is it bann or deactivated
We should raise a complaint on the consumer court ... because in the start even I raised my voice against it..I got banned too..lost 1200$
How i feel when that one intern writes better code then me... withou ai:
Perplexity team are scammers..as u all know..just check the ceo's previous background..he is a great scammer....they closed the programm immediately it started to reachout people..and reduced the ais models to lower models even for pro members...the team is sure fcked up

Can you show us a proof? I couldnāt believe this āyetā
Since November 8th, Iāve noticed increasing limitations when using the assistantāso much that it has become drastically restricted and almost useless for my workflow. This morning, I wasnāt able to create more than 5 assistant commands for operations. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue lately? Any updates or solutions would be much appreciated! š©
lol
does anyone,
i mean anyone not care abt the money
and just do stuff on comet?
I donāt mind the money ā I couldnāt believe someone who got $1000 in a month of leads? There must be some catchābotting?
?
it's not leads
it's campus partner
people must use comet,
and login via their campus for education (pro)
only $1000 referral programme is the campus partner one
and fyi, you can't do it anymore
Quite still believe it itās a scam. I had 100 leads and none of the bounties got registered for me..
a guy i know got it...
it is literally a scam
Referral programmes are stopped in certain region cuz of fraud and scam by certain people
support does not reply to emails, discord support is unavailable
intercom support is only for enterprise subscriptions

and a lot of people did not
Expired...
Contact support@perplexity.ai, we can't help you from here
it seems like they ran out of funds and decided to fuck the other people
All the bounties started appearing about my country got suspended
Why didnāt they show it right at the beginning of the program?
Might be cuz your country tried to play dirty.
hi
Rate
i thinks it was the way to promote their browser in free
What the fck does I have to do with my country?
are you here for money or for comet?
they don't reply at all
chill...
Iām not the one who did dirty for my country silly
even if they do, it's AI
i can earn money? what how XD
nvm
you can bypass the AI, by asking for management
I like how support and discord mods both are pretty much useless at this point, because support is an ai and doesn't let us interact with humans, and even actual humans are behaving like AI
then you never get any replies
im in comet pro tho
How do you use Perplexity for finding torrent files?
:kekw:
we have a dedicated support team, but try to understand that they're often backlogged with a number of queries to respond to
as for discord - we're not the place to go to if you have issues with external platforms or billing, we're here for bug reports.
is this bug
@dry kestrel @green crystal @languid star qwen finally supports multi step search.
A ban on a referral program isn't a bug, no. That would have nothing to do with the Perplexity app/website
But if you did get banned, contact support@perplexity.ai
i mailed but still no response and they dont tell me the resonse of colsing account
Reason
then wait for a response
awesome
understood sir, hope everything gets resolved soon.
i think this a free way for promotion
?
Ping?
Might be worth setting up a bot to send this every few minutes
first you promte your browser by paying the user by making reffrals at the time of payout you baned the accounts
@vague pagoda okay so as a moderator, did no one in your team speak or say anything regarding the wave of bans that people received?
Did they even acknowledge that people want answers ?
Yes and we've told people to go to support@perplexity.ai if they have an issue (where they can actually look into this since they have the resources necessary to do so), not sure what you're asking for here
If you want an answer, contact support
A lot of people have been banned simply due to fraud, misuse, or breaking the program terms
tomorrow is my first payout day and they banned my account today
i mailed also but got only the bot response.
yup thats why they banned a lot of people cuz they cant pay everyone i understand
No, that is not the issue
As I said before, a lot of people have been banned simply due to fraud, misuse, or breaking the program terms
We've also successfully paid out thousands of referral program members
since i have done nothing why did i get banned then?
There is no issue with regards to finances here, the only issue is some people were trying to abuse the program
If you feel like your ban was unjust, contact support@perplexity.ai
Contact support. The discord doesn't have the facilities for that bigman.
so basically the mods here literally can't do anything and they are the only contact source that affected people have
darling ive been working for years on affiliate im not stupid to misuse a program because i know i will get banned at the end its just a piramidal program to get more people to do that
thats why some got paid and some did noit\
not
He doesn't have any authority w.r.t the payouts and stuff bro leave him, he's just here for bug fixes and stuff. He cannot help us and it's not his fault at all.
Not sure if you read the part where I said you can contact support@perplexity.ai
not sure if you understand that they don't fucking reply, so us the affected people come to discord to try and find help and we only find you which you cannot help us
it's discord, people don't read 
it is an unlimited loop of back and forth of nothing
Have you tried waiting for a response? You've got to remember there are hundreds of people contacting support at once, and appeals can't all be reviewed in the same day.
I get that it's frustrating, but once you've emailed support, you've already done the right thing. They'll reach out as soon as they can once your case comes up in the queue. There's nothing more anyone here on Discord can do in the meantime, especially for something unrelated to perplexity (the core product/website)
is 2 weeks not enough ?
Discord mods are not supposed to help with that issue anyway guys, they can only guide you to support at best. I understand everyone's frustration but please understand that mods are also human, please treat them with empathy š
anyways you can't help, no one can only god at this point
I can now understand what u been through Kesku
Hey
.
What a bummer I invited all my friends to join the invite code program and they just canceled my invite code completely perplexity_ai Your business is irresponsible and has no reputation. nothing more than a scam
This project created an invitation code to attract real users, then turned around and didn't pay the reward, claiming it was fraud, while invited all my friends and acquaintances, created a reward of 4-5 dollars and invited 10 people to get a reward of 100 dollars:)))
Why create such high rewards and user attraction offers, then turn your back on the people who help your project connect with real users
Good thing I missed the referral program lol
Wouldn't have done it anyways though
Bro's mad he didnt get his money for inviting his friends to the browser š
Its not like you worked hard for it lmao
??? He probably did(if it was fair)
It is hard to get leads
My community is not small and it takes effort to invite people in.
Contact support@perplexity.ai, we can't help you from here
I have sent the email, my friends have also sent the email
Okay, now wait for a response

@sp_dark18201 @XCprofessor I understand this is a frustrating situation. It's difficult when you've put in the work to get referrals and then lose access to your account.
According to Perplexity's terms, they can suspend accounts for activity they deem fraudulent. If you've already tried emailing their
