i received a check for 30.99 and my bank said they wouldn't take the check. the bank representative. did a google research and said that inboxdollars was a scam and a fraudulent company. i was wondering if anyone else had any problems cashing their checks. and i have took 3 previous checks from them to that bank. |

they make you take a survey for 20 minutes then tell you dont qualify or the quota is full. I did 8 surveys in one day and they didnt pay me for any of them!!! when you write no one responds. I am currently at $26 after 3 months i would like to be paid. we will see.. survey spot does the same surveys. some of them pay $1-15 each and they post the results as soon as you are done good luck to ya when i get my 30 i'm done with em!! |

Inboxdollars is a good way to earn extra cash if you are just trying to put something aside for a later time.I am a gold member and receive 5-10 e-mails a day but don't depend on that for earning potential.As they say you won't make money unless you use money so I purchase items through their partner sites that I need anyway.Also if you do their surveys you get 0.50 each.I also sign up for their other cash offers which makes me about $25.00 a month which isn't too bad in the long run. |

I too am trying to ' hang in there' .
My biggest problem is that you cannot contact anyone to solve a problem .
I don't even mind that the paid to read e-mails are only about 2 cents each ; but they have only sent me 2 in the last few weeks...not one a day as ' suggested'.
Over the last few days their site has had no available offers in many of their departments.
They make it very difficult to get credit for referring a friend ( which I will NOT do again); simply by making your referral enter your information in a not-so-obvious place on the referral form. Since my friend forgot to do this I have lost out on the referral fee and all future % of her action ; even though inboxdollars KNOW that it was my referral.
I'd REALLY THINK TWICE about starting with this company . And then wait a month or two and think on it again...twice! |

I'm not sure what the outcome will be working with Inbox I will try to hang in there a little while longer. So far I've just have $7.88 in my account. Yes, I do agree that it's a slow process and you should be able to get paid more for each survey you respond to at surveys. I wish that It could be a good money making income, because it will help. It's fun to play the games, I only wish we could win alot of cash. My plea to them is that I hope they increase the amount of surveys we should receive, so we can make more money.It's only fair. Our opinions are worth more than $.50. It's worth a million.
Thank You! |

When I first signed up for Inbox Dollars the cash out was $25. After over a year I finally reached $25. At this time I tried to cash out and lo and behold they have raised the minimum to $30. I am still trying for the next $5 to cash out and it has been more than 3 months. I find it very annoying. They send me the same non-paying e-mails over and over again. I would not recommend this site for people who want to make faster cash.
Disappointed |
Jordan So. Cal. | 2:54am on Wednesday, February 17th, 2010  |
I've been a member for a while now, and have received one check. You have to have a MINIMUM of 30 dollars in your account to ask for a check and then they will take a 3 dollar "processing fee." I mostly only do the emails and the occasional survey. Emails are usually 2 cents each and most surveys are 50 cents. Definitely not going to get money quick, but i check my email at least twice a day so why not get a few cents each time? I've never had a problem with not getting emails, though there have been days where I wouldn't get any, but not long enough to consider my account inactive. I'm close to my second check so we'll see if the problem that other people mention of them no longer sending emails happens to me. Good luck to all. |
tracy ok | 9:19pm on Tuesday, February 16th, 2010  |
you say this is not a scam but it has taken forever to cash out and then when you cash out it takes 2 months to get paid.then you have to stay with them in order to get your check so therefore you have to do them until your check is sent.i've been working with them for 3 years because if you can't buy in to other products you can't make any money.finally got my 30.00 then they charge you 3.00 to process it and they say if you do not keep working for them they will not pay you is'nt that a scam. |
Becky Michigan | 3:32pm on Saturday, January 30th, 2010  |
I haven't had any problems so far with Inbox Dollars. I mostly do the emails...the surveys I usually don't qualify for, and they are long & boring. I do see if I am qualified, though, when they send one. It has taken me about 9-12 months to get to the $30 dollar mark; I waited until I got to $33 to cover the fee and I cashed out at the end of December. My check is scheduled to be sent Feb. 1st, so we'll see what happens. Oh, something I haven't heard mentioned...they do take a $3.00 processing fee when you cash out, but then you get a $3.00 bonus added to your account, so that covers it. It definitely is not a lot of money, but I'm going through my emails anyway, and it only takes a minute of my time, so it's worth it to me. If you don't have time to go online for a few minutes, then don't bother signing up - it may not be worth it to you. Some people have said they stopped receiving emails when they ordered their check - that hasn't happened to me. I'll let you know if my check comes... |
Brian Minnesota | 11:17am on Saturday, January 30th, 2010  |
Well, they have a good site. But when it came time to pay all they did was stop sending me emails the very day before my check was scheduled to be sent. So that deactivated my account and I will not receive my check.
I will not re-activate my account since the thirty or so dollars I was going to make is not worth the energy.
You better have some kind of a drive to make money with inboxdollars. |
Matausi Hi | 6:39pm on Wednesday, January 27th, 2010  |
well im giving inbox dollars a go and it seems to be a circle of the same questions. though im waiting on the pay check as we speak. honestly you wont get rich of this. you need money to make money and thats the bottom line. 30 to 40 bucks is probably the max. so im still digging further into these survey companies. to this seems like cheap labor and well your doing someone else job for a quarter of the price lol. say he/she makes 5$ off that survey your doing and you get 5 cents lol and thats how the cookie crumbles |
JMG Greensboro, NC | 7:22pm on Thursday, October 29th, 2009  |
I've been reading these and I've been doing this for two years now. Never had a challenge getting my check and only one time I stopped getting emails so I went to my spam folder and did an "always allow" and started getting them again. I think some of the challenges are just a fluke and like someone else said...it's FREE money. |
jj ny | 9:27pm on Saturday, October 17th, 2009  |
It's not a scam. I'm a member of Sendearnings and Inbox and I have received my check from Sendearnings. Yes it did take FOREVER to reach me, but I got it and I had no problems with it. Of course this program isn't going to help you pay your bills, but it's a easy way of getting some small income for pocket change. I just do the emails, and they come pretty regularly. I just wait until a bunch accumulate and do the whole bunch at once when I have time, no biggie. It's free money, people....relax. |
Faith NC | 11:34am on Tuesday, October 6th, 2009  |
I have received 2 $30 checks and am very close to my third Check. I will say for just checking e-mails and playing games every now and then it is great. I get discounts and always check the site before I buy anything. I love this site. |
michelle Location unknown | 10:13am on Saturday, October 3rd, 2009  |
they terminated my account the day my payment was to be sent....any class actions going on with these bastards? |
theron fletcher Location unknown | 2:58am on Thursday, October 1st, 2009  |
i am a member and was trying to let you all know that i was trying to continue the surveys and it will not let me and when i tried to cash out it want let me. my password will not work and i repeatably tried to contact you about it and there was no comply. so everything that i done was for nothing and it was one big hassle. this company is a scam. |
Lenad08 NC | 6:42pm on Tuesday, September 29th, 2009  |
I am a member of both Send Earnings and Inbox Dollars. I have already received my first check from send earnings and I am waiting on my check now from inbox dollars. I have just requested my second check from send earnings. I do not know why you people say it is a scam. I have had no problems with either. If you feel it is a scam then you should just block them from sending you email. |
Hudnall Ripley W.V. | 7:54am on Friday, September 25th, 2009  |
After four months I never received anything. All this does is clog up my e-mail. when I tried to do the 100 dollar survey. Midway through my computer glitched and the page wouldn't come back. After talking with friends I found that they had the same problem. WHAT A SCAM! How do I get rid of them? my e-mail needs a break. |
Mr.Lee Up Yours | 1:00am on Friday, September 25th, 2009  |
forget this freaking site. a rip off! i made bout 40 bucks and never received my damn check. after complaining about it, my account was deactivated. what the F*** is that? and that guy way up there from Jae, Dallas who claims to have got $1,129 and $500 from the site is just BSing i bet. No way in hell are you going to reach $1,129 or $500. bet he's a freaking associate trying to put in a good word. |
paul Austin, Tx | 3:09pm on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009  |
Is it not funny that when I go to the inbox site they still have my name on the account even though they said they had closed it? Where is the money owed me? |
paul Austin, Tx | 2:59pm on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009  |
This has got to be the biggest scam ever. I started doing the read the survey and it was read an email for 2 cents. I filled out and received "free" offers that cost me money, because I missed some of the fine print. Some of these scams actually can charge you and get away with it. Then when I finally get enough emails read to actually collect a check, my account disappears. When I ask their fine folks about it they say I was not within the realms of the contract. Contract? Then I am told that they will check into my account and get back with me.......4 weeks later, do you think they will actually get back with me? Isn't it funny how I read enough to have 25 bucks coming to me and then I am told I have an illegal account? Hmmm imagine that. I intend on telling everyone about this |

virginia verrier lebanon, virginia | 8:21pm on Tuesday, September 8th, 2009  |
I was just about to 30.00 and they stopped sending me emails. I chatted with a rep and she tried to blame it on operating system, or needing to update my flash player. What a stinking rip-off! |
Jae Dallas | 9:15am on Tuesday, August 11th, 2009  |
I have been a member since NOV of 08, I joined so that I could play the games and earn a lil money back. I PLAY ALOT on the WW site and decided in June that I would cash out my 1,129 check. I just went to my PO box and there was my check sitting there all pretty for me. I had read these comments after I joined and before I cashed out and was worried about them scamming me on my big check the whole month I was waiting for it to process. Now I can do a sigh of relief and cash out my other $500 check now with no problem....
Just reading the emails, it will take forever to get $30 being that you only get 1 cent for each read mail. You have to do some shopping, or game playing in order to get money.
I have proof of my check if anyone needs it. |
john usa | 4:31am on Monday, August 10th, 2009  |
i read all there emails and take there survey's and i think its ok but i wonder if I'm wasting my time. i will just have to wait till i reach the $30.00 mark???? |
Sally Ca | 2:07pm on Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009  |
what a rip off. Your credit card getes charged $111.97 . Contact the BBB and stay AWAY from these guys. |
Breanna SC | 7:39pm on Sunday, July 19th, 2009  |
DONT expect to get rich. it is NOT a scam i have already gotten a check from them and it did not bounce i am now close to 40 dollars and waiting until i get to 50 to request i suggest everyone sign up because it might take you a while but just by doing the emails youll get money ... |
Lizabeth Springfield MA | 6:10pm on Wednesday, July 15th, 2009  |
Please don't let all those nice comments fool you..they are obviously friends and associates of Inbox Dollars. |
Lizabeth Springfield MA | 6:06pm on Wednesday, July 15th, 2009  |
I have been a member now for about 3 years and all I ever did was read their emails. I finally reached the $30.00 mark and then requested
payment. Little did I know that there was a $3.00 charge, but that was okay. Then they tell me I have to wait two months to receive my check and I also have to continue reading emails in order to get my check. I have yet to receive my check from them, they say they sent it on the 3rd...well, it has been 12 days and nothing.
When I log in it says check is pending but then it says check mailed on the 3rd.
I am highly upset, I can't believe that people can get away with these types of scams.
I am just glad for " Google", I google everything now so I don't get scammed again. |

Total scam - not worth the time or effort |
Nicki California | 4:26pm on Saturday, June 6th, 2009  |
InboxDollars is a pretty cool website. You earn $0.50 to $1 for each survey you fill out. You also earn money for completing offers, making online purchases and referring others. They pay in check rather than PayPal, but I'm generally pretty happy with them. I just received a check for $29.57 from them yesterday! |
Robert San Marcos, TX | 5:37pm on Friday, June 5th, 2009  |
I've never made a dime through inbox dollars, but I play spades on their games side.If they pay the same way that they play a game of spades, you will lose your ass. They have that game programmed so that you cannot win when in competition. They say they will match you when you put your money up from your paypal account. Don't do it unless you see what you are up against. Play for free for a while. Go nil and watch how your partner plays against you. Watch how your partner plays to the other two when they go nil. It's funny! Do not ever count on your inbox partner when playing the spades card game. |

I have been a member of inbox for 3 months. So far I have received two $30 checks. I know .50 cents per survey is not much, but they sent both checks quickly. |
R Montana | 5:56pm on Sunday, May 10th, 2009  |
Inbox dollars and thier partner Send earnings are awful !!! you get paid crap and it takes forever to make anything to redeem a check... Instead sign up with Opinion Outpost, they pay a whole lot more, and you only need 5 bucks to cash out at a time... I make about 50bucks a month from them and thats just doing the surveys sparingly |
Dannah US | 4:23pm on Wednesday, May 6th, 2009  |
I just got paid by them, Inboxdollars is definitely not a scam! |
HUNO VA | 2:37pm on Wednesday, May 6th, 2009  |
THE PROBLEM THAT IT DOES NOT GIVE YOU 5$ PER REFERRAL NO JUST 10% FROM THEIR EARNING WHICH IS NOTHING AND FOR A PERIOD OF TIME . YOU CAN STUCK FOR EVER UNLESS YOU DO SHOP ON LINE A LOT ............ |
acf mass | 8:44pm on Monday, May 4th, 2009  |
Been with the program a little over a year. I have received 2 $30 checks and have about $16 on account so far. Your are not going to make a living off of this company, but it is a way to try different things at a discount. |
brendasannicolas CA | 4:25pm on Tuesday, April 28th, 2009  |
I have been reading e-mails and taking surveys for months now, and finally got to the $30.00 mark. I requested payment, and fully intended to continue taking their surveys and reading their e-mails, but everytime I go to read an e-mail, there is an error, or I can't get into the site. You think they would pay once, to avoid suspicion, but this is only putting up a red flag immediately. So, whoever is in charge of this "scam" is pretty stupid, as they probably , (by paying the first time) would have gotten a lot more out of me because I would have been convinced it wasn't a scam and continued to work for little of nothing. I plan to file a report with the FBI as a scam, and also with the BBB. Who knows, maybe I might Get that giant $27.?? check they owe me. Since I can't get back into the site to keep my acct. active, I venture to say, that I won't get a check mailed out in June. I'll keep you posted if they happen to decide to let me back in to read their e-mails so I am active. |

Inbox has paid me twice already without a problem. It's virtually free money just by clicking one or two links ... Is part of what I do anyways as I spend about 10 hours online, why not add a couple of bucks in the meantime? |
Ruth MI | 10:28am on Monday, March 30th, 2009  |
If there was a lower rating, I'd give it to Inbox
Dollars. What a waste of time! I was getting $.01 per email reading (as opposed to the whopping $.02 and $.03 that I see others received). When I finally had done enough offers and requested my money, they sent me an email telling me that my request would be handled in 6 weeks. The email also stated that if I unsubscribed, I would forfeit my money. I never unsubscribed, and I never received another email from them (I normally received 2 or 3 per day) Needless to say, I never received my money! |

I have been a member of inbox I don't even know how long. I have bought into the gold program and have at least 6 to 7 people under me all the time. I have received several $30 checks and I enjoy doing it. You are not going to get rich as it does take a long time to get enough to cash out but just fun to do it in your spare time. |
gen texas | 12:06pm on Sunday, March 22nd, 2009 |
i was just reading a comment that someone posted previously about all the positive reviews coming from friends or family from the companies owners.... not that you'd believe this anyway... but i'm neither one of those... i'm just someone who's belonged to A LOT of paid sites over the years... and i've had problems with some that PLENTY of people claimed to have LOVED.
there are plenty of situations in life where things can get mixed reviews. happens to movies and theatre productions all the time. there are restaurants that i have been to... that people have given RAVE reviews about... and i come out of them and come down with food poisoning.
just because some people have bad experiences... does not mean that the good experiences other people have had are false. |
gen texas | 11:57am on Sunday, March 22nd, 2009  |
i've been with inboxdollars off and on for three years... so far this year i've already gotten paid $80. PAID... not earned. I've earned 2 separate $40 checks in a little under 2 months. The year before last... before I went inactive... i had made a total of $56. if I had been active steadily for those periods of time... who knows how much i would have made. i used to do the surveys all the time and i always got paid for them... every time... as well as one of the studies i did, which said it would pay $15 within 4-6 weeks... i got the 15 applied to my account in under 3 weeks. i don't know what is going wrong with everyone else... but i happen to be very happy with them.
i was a member of another program YEARS ago... i don't know if any of you have ever heard of TasiasPaidLinks... omg... i supposedly earned like $200 with them... never saw a cent from them. |

InBoxDollars is owned by CotterWeb Enterprises. Their CEO is Daren Cotter, 651-289-0720. Feel free to call him and let him know we all mean business.
It is fine to go to the Better Business Bureau but it is better to go to the FBI scam site and report them.
By the way, IF THE SURVEY PROVIDER DOES NOT PAY INBOXDOLLARS AS INBOX OFTEN TRIES TO CLAIM, IT IS JUST TOUGH FOR INBOXDOLLARS BECAUSE INBOX DOLLARS IS AN AGENT REPRESENTING THESE SURVEY PROVIDERS AND THUS IS LIABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. |
Renee Wallace Oakland, Ca. | 4:01pm on Friday, March 20th, 2009  |
InBox Dollars is a scam! One of their paid survey partners advertised my husband
would be paid $25 for a medical survey and InBoxDollars would make the payment. Neither
InBoxDollars nor the survey partner have ever paid my husband for this survey which took 3 hours. |

i think if you dont have the time dont bother but if u are a stay at home mom like i am then i think this is perfect for you just pull up a chair and do some surveys and tell them how you really feel about there products its fun to me now how about you. |
Canelia Dyer FL | 12:55am on Monday, March 16th, 2009  |
You can make some money, but if you are honest with the surveys you will not qualify if you have an education. The problem I have had is the online shopping rewards, there were several stores that I already use participating, and not one out of at least 10 have shown up as paying the percentage promised. They have a trouble shooting system, but want you to supply so much information it is almost impossible, even when I supplied this information, they said they did not receive it and requested it again! You will NOT make a living at this, but you can make a little extra here and there, Winster games are fun and you do meet some nice people, I just qualified for the $4, we shall see if it appears in my account......But I wish anyone luck and it is free. |
Anonymous Location unknown | 10:01pm on Saturday, March 14th, 2009  |
I joined inbox dollars about a year ago and mostly read ads they sent the last I'd looked I had $33.18 coming to me, then suddenly they quit sending emails. After a week I went on and they say I've been inactive, I requested in an email that they pay me and have heard nothing from them.
I feel that when its time to be able to cash in on what you've earned they dump you and rip you off. Just want to warn you that it may happen to you too. |

PART 3: ...continued...(please scroll down to read previous posts to keep this in order)
I DID have one complaint that I sent in to I.D. customer service. I had one particular survey just this morning that took a good 1/2 hour of time to fill out a lot of in depth information regarding owning a cell phone. After all of the work I did put into that survey, I was suddenly told that I did not qualify. I am awaiting word back from I.D. on this complaint. I felt that both I.D. and I got jipped on that one. This survey company got an AWFUL lot of info from me for free. We'll see how I.D. handles the issue.
As for getting paid.....so far I have just over $18 that I've made in approx 3 weeks. I click on every paid e-mail (which only takes 2 seconds at most) and I anytime I first sit down at my computer, I click on cash surveys and usually try and try till I get through with 1. Then, I play the games a little bit. I'm not adding anymore of my cash to the games so once the $30 runs out, that's it for me!
My point in this novel is to explain my story SO FAR in my efforts with Inbox Dollars. I cannot debunk any complaints by other people on whether or not they ever got paid, whether the site is a "scam" or anything else.
I'm certainly not here on behalf of I.D. In fact, I came across this site because I typed in Inbox Dollars into my internet explorer window and didn't put the .com after it. I saw this site listed on that list and decided to take a look and see what others were saying about it.
While I'll keep in mind all of those complaints I've seen, ultimately, if I don't get paid by Inbox Dollars it will definitely not ruin my day or my life for that matter. I made the choice to join. I made the choice to take the surveys knowing FULL WELL that I would only get paid 50 cents **IF** I qualified. There aren't enough surveys nor do the surveys take up so much of my "valuable" time that I would throw a major hissyfit if I didn't make a real $buck$ off of it.
If you go into the site with the attitude of expecting more than what they say, you'll be sorely disappointed, that's for sure.
Good luck to you all and I WILL return with further info on how my time is going with I.D. and whether or not I've seen any results on payment.
Thank you |
Tanya Liberty, Missouri | 10:57am on Wednesday, February 25th, 2009 |
PART 2: Continued...(scroll down to see previous posts before reading this one)
I set I.D. up to pay out to PayPal. I felt more comfortable with that than having them mail me a check. In fact, from what I read, that's a MUCH better way to go so you don't have to put up with processing fees or extra waiting time. Thank GOD, considering some of your posts I've read.
As far as the "work" itself...
I began my time with I.D. just clicking on "Start survey" in the paid surveys section. There were a bunch I didn't qualify for. Then I FINALLY qualified and the first survey was about Cholesterol medication. I have slightly elevated cholesterol (which is a question that was asked initially) so that's why I qualified. It took me about 1/2 hour to do on a Saturday morning while I was slowly waking up. I had absolutely nothing else to do anyway. Frankly, I love surveys. I've joined other sites in the past and have found that many expect money paid to them in order for you to get money back. In my case, there's NO WAY I'm doing that! I'm a disabled ex-firefighter and money is super super tight (and...with our economy, who's money isn't? right?).
Since I DO enjoy filling out surveys from time to time and, I.D. promises to pay me for doing so, then I'm giving it a shot.
For those who have said "It's a waste of time". With all due respect, I totally understand how many can see that about this site. This is VERY slow, VERY small money. Does I.D. make loads more than what you get paid for? Most likely (as I see most of you nodding big time). But, I'm not I.D. I'm just a regular gal, at home, looking for a little something extra. I don't care how much they pay me really. I'd do it for even less than the $50 they pay out for surveys or even the 2 cents per paid e-mail.
I went into this site with the idea (after reading through everything on the site) that I would be making very slow money. I'm not looking to get rich or make a living off of it. It's just something "extra" to do doing something I really enjoy doing.
Nowhere on that site did I read anything about people making BIG MONEY or enough to make a living off of so I'm not sure exactly where some folks are mentioning in their posts that it falsley advertised as such. However, there are those of you who mentioned that surveys used to pay $1, not the 50 cents they pay now. So I'm assuming that there's been some changes made.
I do not and will not pay ANY money for any of their offers. I do receive a lot of offers but I've never received any phone calls ::knocks on wood:: I'm also on the national no call list so that might be the help to me there.
The only thing I've paid money into is the cash games at World Winner which is run through I.D. That was my own perogative, however. I have made money off of my winnings in the game but out of the $30 I've spent, I've earned 80 cents to my I.D. acct. I spent $10 the first time and $20 the second time to the games. |

Hello everyone,
I've been reading through all of these posts by everyone and I do want to say that I'm extremely sorry that many of you have had such a rough time with Inbox Dollars.
This will be a multi part post because it IS long and I put a lot of information here on my experience, so far, with Inbox Dollars.
Just to share a bit of my story (which I'll have to update from time to time), a friend of mine saw a story on the news in Ohio about Inbox Dollars and it being the most legit, reputable company for getting paid for surveys. She joined and sent me an invite. I did not join right away but wanted to see what she thought of it first. She seemed to enjoy the site and doing the surveys but she did warn me that many surveys don't go through. Meaning, you start them off and then it'll say you don't qualify. Which, to me, is understandable. Once a company gets a little information from you, they determine whether or not you're someone they're looking for.
I decided to sign up with I.D. (for short lol) Before I did, however, I went through and read aaall the grueling pages of information about the site. It took me quite a while to dig through it, but I'm one who does not trust very easily. I've been scammed before and do NOT want to have it happen again! |

All I can say is they have always paid me. |

hey mr. "you, idiots" they have a good reason for paying people to sit at home, they make a hundred times more than any of the members, lets say they dish out 3000 dollars a day to people, that means they probably made about 20-30 thousand from the offers, surveys, and ads that the people look at in their email, they arent a site that is devoted to giving money to people for doing things, they are a site devoted to getting paid for people to do things, they just pay out or from the comments above dont pay out so they can get more people to make them money |

just started but for a lack of nothing else to do right now, i do enjoy the pennies, sometimes dollars that I earn and all that does add up just for playing on the computer. SO yeah, I do love this and hope you will too. |
larry dallas,tx | 12:57pm on Saturday, January 24th, 2009  |
not a lot of money but who would expect it to be.this is just for fun and spare time and that's all |
Rusty Washington State | 5:59pm on Tuesday, January 20th, 2009  |
Of course it's a scam. While it is probably not illegal, it is certainly immoral. The hype leads one to believe you can make hundreds each month. The reality is that most "surveys" require you to spend money to make any real money. When you read positive reviews of this or any company, keep in mind that some of these reviewers are "plants". They are not actual users but are company employees planted to act as legitimate reviewers. |
Belinda Montezuma, Ohio | 9:10am on Saturday, January 17th, 2009  |
I was a member before an am again a member. I thought after all this time has been about the same experience. I fill out more and more surveys and more and more offers, and it takes for ever the more offers you sign up for the longer it takes I spent 3 hr.s the night before last and only earned 1.00, that is slave labor an went out many moons ago. So,I do believe that I'm going to unsubscribe again because it takes hr.s and hr.s of answering question just to find out all you made is a buck. Not sure, if they are committing ad fraud, then something should be done. |

InboxDollars is the best and the most reliable Paid E-mail over the Internet.Everyday we receive
,at least,two Paid E-mails that worth two cents
each.Therefore,we can have this income :
Daily : $0.04 x 1 = $0.04
Weekly : $0.04 x 7 = $0.28
Monthly : $0.28 x 4 = $1.12
Annually : $1.12 x 12 = $13.44
That's absolutely better than working under the abusive and ridiculous control of a manager. |
richard melton kentucky | 8:10pm on Wednesday, January 14th, 2009  |
inboxdollars does pay what they owe you,however they also deal with a few deadbeat companies that never pay them when a customer signs up for their offers leaving the person hooked for what money it takes to complete a company's cash offer and never receiving anything because the company comes up with some bogus reason for not paying inboxdollars. so if they are not paid you are not paid... beware of blockbuster and a few more. |
evangeline alabama | 2:01am on Friday, January 9th, 2009  |
I did surveys and read email for over three years. The money that I have earned is there, but there is no way to get paid. I can't get the site to open. This has certainly been an experience for the worse. This site is phony and will be reported to the BBB. If they owe you money, join
the ones that are reporting them. |
Suzie West Palm Beach, FL | 12:13pm on Wednesday, January 7th, 2009  |
Never was really scammed by them, so I could only go as low as 2-poor.
Ditto, though, with all that I just read on you site.
Like to add, that I'm tiring of seeing all the constant emails (I do get alot), and am now in the process of eliminating them altogether.
Thanks for this opportunity to vent a bit. |
Dawn WA state | 11:33am on Thursday, January 1st, 2009  |
I thought everything was cool. Not making much money, but I finally got up to the $30 mark and they said they would send out my check feb. 2nd. All of a sudden, my account has been declared inactive and I cannot get onto the site. Bye bye 5 months of reading e-mails for 2 cents in order to get ripped off. Thank you inboxdollars; NOT. |
Jim ng | 8:49am on Saturday, December 27th, 2008 |
thank's guys i really appreciate what you all have been saying the only question i have is that is it true that someone can make it through internet business or all online business are actually scammers pls tell me |
olivia new york | 4:50pm on Friday, December 19th, 2008  |
inbodx dollars is the best site to make a ton of money but you will make some extra cash. i read the emails, about 2-3 daily atleast and do some surveys. over time it adds up. its good to save up for a special occasion or holidays when you need a few extra dollars for things. the first check does take a while to process, but after that you become a gold member, which i have, and the checks are processed quicker |
julia chicago | 2:50pm on Tuesday, December 16th, 2008  |
Inbox dollars is not a good website if you want to get rewarded. They did send me my first check, but it took them 2 or 3 months to process it and they took $3 for processing. I'm still waiting for them to credit me for a purchase that I've made through their website. If you want to try a rewarding website try mypoints.com. This one gives points instead of cash, but you can redeem it for gift cards and a lot of nice gift cards, especially around the holidays. Mypoints gives a lot more points for the same offers that inboxdollars does and their customer service is much better. Plus they have a lot more offers than inboxdollars does. And it's also free to join! |
joan allred muncie | 9:47pm on Friday, December 12th, 2008  |
So far this site is for real! I have just started and I like it so far. I have been on this site for just a little time and I have made some money. |
eloise Florida | 5:43pm on Tuesday, December 9th, 2008  |
I was getting a few emails from InBox every day. It was quick and I thought, oh well, I have some time, why not? But now I have reached the 31.00 and I wanted to "cash out". Guess what? I can't even sign on to their website. Scam? Yeah, I think so. How these people are allowed to run these scams is beyond me.There oughtta be a law! |
Cat NC | 12:56pm on Monday, December 8th, 2008  |
InboxDollars has always been fair to me. I got my first check when they said I would. I think it's easy. They only pay .05 for NEW emails. Repeat emails pay .02-.03 and that's more than other companies pay.
Inbox is great if you just want to make extra money. If you want to earn a living, turn off your computer, get dressed and go find a real job. |
non believer west palm beach | 8:02am on Monday, November 24th, 2008  |
dont believe the hype, I took two offers that were presented to me from bidz.com by inbox I have the highest esteem from bidz and would have taken that offer anyway, but inbox didn't follow through with the cash incentive on both situations of 12.00 apiece, then when I complained they wanted the original emails they sent me as proof. How many people keep those it's like a mail in rebate pain. If you like the offers even without the promise on good faith from inbox take it if not DONT DO IT ps it would have put me over the 30.00 mark where they may have (ha ha) sent me a check. |
Laura Houston Texas | 12:23pm on Thursday, November 20th, 2008  |
When I was signed up with Inboxdollars, It seemed like a good thing at the time. But as soon as I reached $30 wich is the min. amout for payment, It seemed like they just put up a brick wall. I am still getting their emails but I cant click on anything to take advantage of the deal. I can't get an email through to them, I can't even sign up on their home page. They don't have anyway I can reach them to get the money I have coming to me. This is Fraud plain and simple. Everyone should stay away from them. |
Ryan Chicagoland | 6:58pm on Sunday, November 16th, 2008  |
You won't get rich or make a living with Inbox Dollars, but you can get some free money. I save up my earnings and request checks for special occasions like birthdays. If they want to hand out money, I can't see refusing it. |
Vicki Washington | 9:25am on Friday, November 14th, 2008  |
Not worth your time! I've only belonged for one month and have earned $8.52, $5 of which was a sign up bonus. My problem is not having enuf emails from them, my in-box is flooded, but in receiving too many asking for participation. I'm not going to pay money to earn about $0.01 per hour for my time. The only one making money on this one is In Box Dollars -- they get paid by the survey providers and you can bet it's much, much more than the .000001% they pay out. I guess if you're bored and have nothing to do, you can play with it -- but don't expect much from them. |
Kasie Winston Salem | 10:24pm on Tuesday, November 11th, 2008  |
its a crock of crap. I got to 35.00 and they claimed they needed to chop off an extra 5.00 for "processing", so I got the short end of the stick. This program is bullshit. |
dee relien greenville , wi | 12:46pm on Tuesday, November 11th, 2008  |
How do I get off this awful site? |
Danielle M. North Carolina | 7:46am on Sunday, November 9th, 2008  |
Inbox Dollars is not a scam. Here are a list of the checks they have sent me. Granted, it is not a lot of money, but I used the site a lot at Christmas time and it added. I don't think that anyone should whine about the little bit of money or the time it takes to process the "free money".
$69.28 Check Completed Feb 26, 2008 Mar 05, 2008
$165.34 Check Completed Dec 27, 2007 Feb 01, 2008
$45.40 Check Completed Oct 22, 2007 Dec 04, 2007 |
Gregory L. Davis Biloxi, MS | 10:18pm on Tuesday, October 28th, 2008  |
If you are trying to make a decent incom online, this is not an avenue to pursue. Inbox Dollars was a headache to me so I gave up on it after about 6 months. I only received on average 2 or 3 emails per month to read and I asn't interested in all of the other special offers that were available. If you are bored and have time to waste and you are not looking to make decent income, then this website is fine, otherwise, leave this one alone.

Lauren Florida | 3:15pm on Saturday, October 25th, 2008  |
To Jeannie from Virginia ( or was it W. Va? ) I too was near the $30 mark when they claimed I blocked them, or some such screwy reason. And I really DO believe the positive comments come from employees or their friends and relatives. Heck, pay me $30 and I will do the same! LOL! I will get my money they owe me as they wiped out my earnings when it was almost time to get paid. They are messing with the wrong person! I hope they get sued for false advertising. Just wait and see what happens! |

chris virginia | 6:03am on Wednesday, October 15th, 2008  |
I've been with inbox for awhile now. I didn't always do surveys or offers much so at first it took me awhile to build up the money. They are definately not a scam as I did receive my first check from them last month. I try to take as many surveys daily as I can. I also do online shopping, it's like getting paid for doing something you would normally do anyways. clicking on the paid emails does not take a long time. You don't even have to wait for the window to open they will credit you as soon as you click on it from your email. All those who supposedly did not receive their check from them probably stopped clicking the emails and became inactive. In their defense they clearly state that you must stay active and click the emails while your check is being processed. Maybe you should actually read what you are doing before blaming them. The problem is nowadays people do not read thoroughly and then claim they have been scammed. I found that a lot with my last job as well and when I forward a previous email that was sent to them..it usually shuts them up..because they did not read thoroughly. |

Offers offers that is all. Give more;get nothing. |

this a scam, i'm takeing to my lawyer. Don't even mess with this. |
bekah Oregon | 5:01pm on Wednesday, October 1st, 2008  |
I have no problem with inbox. I have recieved one check already and am going towards my second. It was never said to be a high paying thing, just a way to make a few bucks for a little bit of time that you are not gettting paid for anyway. Whenever I check my email I always have at least 1-2 emails from inbox and it only takes about 30seconds to click on them and get credited. The surveys are easy enough to do. Inbox isn't a scam, you do get paid, they don't proccess payments until the 1st of every month and it only takes a couple of weeks to get it. Not fast but you do make $ for time that you wouldn't be other wise. |
Lisa Arkansas | 2:18pm on Tuesday, September 30th, 2008  |
I wasn't qualified for any of the surveys that I took. Some of them were time consuming. I didn't understand. Right now I am tring to unsubscribe and I can't seem to get through. I now continue to get unwanted emails daily. |
Kristine Location unknown | 1:13pm on Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008  |
This is in no way a get rich site or a site that will let you work from home. They never say they are. It's simply a site where you can get a few extra dollars every now and then. I just recieved my second check and even though they say it could take months I recieved both in under two weeks. I agree the surveys are a pain and they only pay 50cents instead of $1 now. I make money buy doing the offers especially the ones that also allow me to add to my upromise account. You have to keep track of the offers and which to cancel but I don't find it a problem. I make about $10 a month from inbox and another $10 to my upromise account. Not alot but I only take about 10 minutes a day on it. Not quick money, or even alot of money, but it is legit. |
Susan Tennessee | 10:00pm on Monday, September 22nd, 2008  |
i've been a member for a year and i have only received 1 check and you have to wait one in a half months before they even process your check for you after you request it!! you can not get a check every week like they claim and you have to wait until you reach $30.00 in your account plus they take $3.00 from you to just to process the check! you only get .2 cents to read e-mails and only .50 for doing survey's!! they are rip odds!!!! |
Willissa Ann VanHoy Virginia | 12:14am on Friday, September 12th, 2008  |
I've taken over 30 surveys and they claim they only owe me a 1.00 for doing 3. I've been doing this for 2 months and still haven't made over 10.00 yet! It's great if you want to make 2 cents a day. |
Tony Las Vegas | 9:45pm on Thursday, September 11th, 2008  |
I've got 3 checks around $30 each, over 3 years. This is not a good way to make money, but clicking on a few e-mails a day never hurt anyone. |
Janet New York | 3:31pm on Saturday, September 6th, 2008  |
I have been readng e-mails, it take only few seconds. I also enjoy playing online games. My first check was processed on September 2, 2008, and I received it on September 5, 2008. I have another check due to be processed on the tenth of September. Once you receive your first check, you can receive all other checks weekly. I have had no problems with inbox dollars. |
Denise Location unknown | 8:53am on Thursday, August 28th, 2008  |
they NEVER promise that you will "get rich quick" and anyone that goes into these sites thinking this needs to get a REAL JOB! This is just something fun to do in the evenings to earn a bit of extra cash.I have done NOTHING but open e-mails and I am already at almost $30.00..I don't think that is bad for doing nothing but clicking a mouse a few times.Those that want fast cash,this is NOT for you. |
