    Not too sure what the current one is, I think its something to do with London Underground, or it has something promoting something going on there. It lasts for about a minute. That has over taken the last one that had been on for around a week that was 30 seconds long - and its really bad that I can't recall what the hell it was for, even though I must have loaded the ad at least 500 times in the past week - I just let the vid play while doing other things online and watching TV.

    At the moment I'm getting the "oops not available" prompt, but a few mins after midnight I will be able to watch again.

    If you do it on PC after watching the video once you get the "oops not available" prompt you can no longer watch the video. If instead you email the link to your phone (the offer open on Matony) you can keep going back to that email and re-clicking that link and re-watching the same video. After an hour or so it will lock you out with the "oops not available" prompt, or with a "suspended for suspicious behaviour" prompt. When that happens you go back to the email and click on the second link in the email and watch the video via that link instead. Once you hit 50 tokens worth you won't get credited any more in that day.

    By half 2ish most mornings you have either been locked out due to the suspicious activity prompt, the oops not available one, or you have hit your 50 tokens worth. I'd say 4 out of 5 times you can reach the 50 token limit before you get locked out - or at least you can when the videos are 30 seconds to a minute long anyway.

    Before that it was a very long video, something to do with Uncle Ben's rice or something daft like that. They were nearly 8 mins long, so you would only make about 10/15 tokens an evening if you were lucky with that one.
