Hi,


Does anyone know how long it takes to get your exclusivity status changed to non-exclusive, once your 30 days of waiting are up?


My number of days left as an exclusive went down from 30 to 1 on http://www.istockphoto.com/sell-stock-photos-exclusivity.php.


Now I should be non-exclusive, but my status has changed from "1 day" back to  "video exclusive contributor" and my exclusive icons are all still there.


I emailed support a little while ago, but they haven't got back yet....


I think I've heard of this happening with someone else. Is it normal? And does it mean I can't go online anywhere else yet?


Thanks

Well, if your 30 days is up you are legally free to upload somewhere else.

YEs, I think so, and well... I also think that you could do anything you want since iStock is the first one not respecting the law!

Still no change, maybe the count-down is wrong by a day or something..... I guess I should wait till business hours and then see....


Problem is I don't remember exactly what time I cancelled it...

No, they didn't send me a message when I cancelled.... Hope that doesn't mean that they have no record of me cancelling

I can't see your crown, looks like you're free, have you tried flushing the cache on your browser?

Exclusive videographers have never had crowns, they have a clapper board icon.

Check your mail box. They sent me a confirmation email the day I asked to be non exclusive. I, for sure, even if they forget to remove my crown will start to upload after 30 days.

I confirm there has been NO email sent to me when I cancelled my exclusivity. It's not like a support ticket...

Sorry guys. I have checked and haven't found my email neither... I probably confused it with a file deactivation email.


Shame on me.

Ok, as it seems we have an answer to that question now, two days later.


No surprise it takes about the same time than canister changes etc.
