Ive been hearing some rumors that adbux is not using paypal anymore. I just emailed them and asked them if its true. If thats true I wont be clicking any more ads on adbux. It seems alot of sites stopped using paypal. So if you know whats going on with them please let me know. I would appreciate it.

I heard a rumor on here that Paypal will start turning over tax records to the IRS. I am not sure whether or not this is true or whether or not this is why the sight changed, but this is what I read.

Six hundred dollars? OMG! I get excited when I get $5 from these sites, the fact that the site pays out in the first place is a huge bonus. PMSL I can't stop laughing x

Terrz, Adbux is no longer using paypal they are switching to alertpay. They say payouts for last month will be continued to be made as people slowly transision to alertpay. Here is a link to adbux blog that explains this: http://www.adbuxsupport.com/blog/ They say the may get the reloadbale atm cards too I hope so I really don't want to use alertpay.

I never joined the site, but I have heard a lot of negativity from quite a few places, including this one: http://www.gptboycott.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18099 I can only guess that maybe there was a legitimate reason that led to them ending up on the boycotted list.

I am puzzled that many of you are still able to access adbux site. I have been trying to access it for the past few days and just could not go in. It is news indeed to me that adbux is doing away with paypal and going for alertpay. Things like this always never seem last long. Anyway, I did managed to collect one payment before through my paypal.

So, that makes the two of us. Yes, it is not worth carrying on. I only tried to see if I could access it from time to time. Most likely before long, it would end up in my cyber cemetery.

Pay Pal has had a mind of their own here recently. I have personally dealt with this paypal issue twice and what is going on is that paypal decides they do not think a company is legit or it is high risk so they put limitations on that companies paypal account thus the company can no longer make and payments or receive any until they go through a living nightmare to give paypal everything they want. Let me tell ya the things paypal wants when this happens is not just a simple Id or anything like that they want full shipping labels and invoices and statements and Id's and credit card transactions. Even at that it is not certain that the company will even be permitted to use paypal with their business. This has been happening to alot of online sites recently. I know it happened to freebies Junction, Also to Cash2Grab and numerous Others. In light of it all I stopped using paypal on one site because paypal was such a pain. I know for a fact that the two companies I listed are very honest and are paying one's even after all the paypal drama.

I think that the reason why they don't use paypal any more it is because people should reside in USA or Canada to be elligible for this program. To prevent non-USA residents from earning, they changed method of payment to checks.
