You waste a lot of time trying to "earn" money by taking surveys. They are annoying, repetitive, and take too long. Then you find out you don't "qualify" or you have to PURCHASE at least THREE expensive items to get your chance to enter a sweepstakes or earn your three cents. STEER CLEAR. These guys are a freaking JOKE!

Oh yes, and what everyone is saying... they will blow up your email with more scams many times per day and they SELL your info. These guys are ripping people off and making a LOT of money off those of us who need to work at home. I agree. Class action.

You would think they could at least keep politics out of cooking. They are so immature they can't. The cooking videos used to be fun, just cooking. Now a lot of it is about how the environment is affecting our food and who's to blame for it. Through their stinking surveys (and elsewhere) they try to milk the political ideas out of you. They are so stinking insecure that they have to know my opinion on everything. Yup I will keep watching their $#*!ing TV. But they aren't going to brainwash me in the process!

I love being in InboxDollars I have already received 4 checks and I do not have to wait 30 days to receive it thanks for your help.

Inbox Dollars is an absolute waste of time. First, it takes FOREVER to get enough money to request a payment. It takes you to a survey and halfway through the survey (after 20 minutes of answering questions) says you are no longer qualified for it. It does this multiple times, making it nearly impossible to even make 25 cents. Second, they terminate accounts without even notifying you beforehand. I requested a payment for around $30 and then the next day I go into my account and it gives me a notification that my account is now terminated and can no longer receive any of my funds. DON'T BOTHER WITH THIS SITE. Complete scam.

This site isn't a scam per se. You will get paid, but it pays way less than other survey sites and wastes a lot more of your time. You will often be told you match a survey, only to click on it and not qualify. I've fully COMPLETED a few different surveys, only to be told after 100% completion, watching ads and answering their questions, that I didn't qualify. Sometimes you'll waste 30+ minutes to not even be rewarded. That's one of the sketchy and frustrating things about this site. Their panels aren't very trustworthy, and they pay out poorly. I've had much better experiences with Surveyspot (the rewards are a bit better, you will qualify more often, waste less time, and they pay out with Paypal) and Survesavvy (Usually great reward rates, but slow to pay and they send you a check). I have made $60 with Inboxdollars, but I spent hours upon hours for weeks to get the money. Not worth it unless you have A LOT of time to waste and really need the cash, but I'd recommend other sites first.

I earned my $30 to cash out, then the stated there was a $3 "processing fee" to send the check. They said they'd waive the fee if I worked my way to $40. I agreed to the $3 fee because my time is more valuable than the effort put in on this site, and I figured it be best to cut my losses. They said in order for me to receive my check I need to still be an "active" member and click on "paid emails" that are sent to my e-mail account. There are many other legitimate work from home methods that I employ, and thought I would give this one a try as well, since it was recommended by PennyHoarders. Huge waste of time, and site is very spammy.

Terrible site. Poorly designed surveys, you will get many pages in and much wastes time to be informed that "you don't qualify for this survey". Also, credit is not given for some completed surveys. Finally, multiple surveys get you to a point where the survey doesn't take input or is otherwise unresponsive and all time is wasted. I don't believe the site is a scam, but don't bother with it unless you have tons of time and expect nothing for it.

At the time I signed up, I had the impression that it was a legitimate -although low-paying- way to earn money. But when I tried it for myself, they paid me next to nothing to allow them to flood me with ads. There were some higher paid activities I could've done that might earn me near minimum wage, but those asked for my credit card information at the end of a very long survey, or mysteriously cut off and I couldn't figure out how to finish the activity, crap like that, so I never did them. I did give out my phone number, and I've been getting scam calls ever since (about a year ago), even after I signed up with the Do Not Call Registry. I didn't bother trying to earn the minimum amount ($30 I think?) to get paid.

They spam your inbox with hundreds of emails every day. For me, it didn't even go in my spam folder after I got 50 of them; I had to mark it as spam myself. Thanks to them, I now get over 100 spammy emails every. Single. Day. My spam inbox is now overflowing thanks to them. While I haven't even tried to make money from this after discovering that, I have seen other reviews say they don't pay you. And I believe them. Any scumbag blogger you see talking about how great this is was probably paid to say that. Do not listen to anyone who says this is a good site. It is not worth your time.
