You might want to connect with facebook and twitter as well..........That helps and then if you click on your name ilovemyboys and click on the phone icon enter in your phone number then verify it, wait for a phone call from an automated phone service they will give you a code and you have to enter that in to verify your phone number. That usually helps you get more bids because you have more of your badges lit up not only that you get free credits for doing these things. Just trying to help. Good luck
