In discussion at mylot I have read that members are worried about the genuineness of readbud. Today I have read at readbutbot.com about this. The admin states that after reaching $30 by a member readbud control the articles for the member. It is their policy as they can check the huge payment at a time. I don't know how true is it. Only theebrs who will receive payment has the authority to comments on it.

Sona, let me tell you. I have reached 50 $ in three months. I have cashouted my right. But they never send money to my paypal. I conclude this site is truly scam. In this site, mylotters have discussed it. Nobody joined getting paid.

marcmm, if you do a search here on the toolbar you will find hundreds of veteran myLot members who reached the payout and to date have never been paid.
Once a member reaches the payout they get some lame excuse why they should not be paid. Many members say months go by and they never even respond to the cash out request.

My guess is that the site now lowered the cash out to get more loyal members they can scam. It truly is a scam, the countless discussions on myLot can prove that.

all the comments i've read on hear about readbud say their a scam. however, some also mentioned they haven't even tried to at least make it to the $50 payout. there excuse for quitting like you said is you just don't get that many articles after reaching $30. i'm still continuing to use readbud to reach the $50 payout because at least i can learn from the articles that i read on it. shouldn't that be a benefit as well as the possibility of getting paid. currently i'm past the $45 mark on readbud and i'll check back with mylot and let people know if they pay. i'm willing to give readbud plenty of time first to pay me but after that if i have not been paid i can conclude its a scam(if it turns out that way).

Because no one has been been paid at $50, it makes me much more leary as why would they pay at $30.00
There are so many discussions here that you can search and see the countless members who have never been paid.
Maybe it is a way to draw member people to their scam.

Because some folks are just down right"GREEDY". Everyone knows that Readbud is a scam site and yet they still join. Readbud generates over $700 a day in revenue and post an insulting post about Let’s face it, nothing is perfect and there’s always a catch. There’s no such thing as easy money in this world, it will be traded with your time or hard work. ...

I am just beginning to be worried on how readbud is acting as of this time. I also have an account and I keep on experimenting so I can really see for myself if this is indeed a paying company.
It has been months since I last earned never got money out of it. I documented my Readbud experience in my blog and I will surely update it so that my referrals know what is going on.

Sona dear, I am certain that Readbud is a scam. Here is a valid proof http://www.bukisa.com/articles/323273_readbud-get-paid-to-read-articles-a-certified-scam
Readbud has been proven to be a scam and I don't think they deserved to be given the benefit of the doubt. I can't buy any of their rationalization why they have to control the articles as soon as a member reach 30 dollars. The mere fact that they ignored paying many members already is a reason not to believe all their alibis. I stopped working at readbud after I noted the articles are no longer coming and it was like it would take forever before I could reach payout.

It's not just the article slowdown that bothers me. It's the number of people I've heard about who have stuck it out until the end and reached payout, but then never received payment. I kinda liked readbud because it had some nice interesting articles on it, but if they're not going to fulfill their promise to pay, then I'm not going to waste my time. Why don't you ask the admin if they ever plan on actually paying people?

Readbud is a big scam. Quit them immediately. I heard that their management is the same as the one managing the scam survey site---AWSurveys.

Hi Sona, you are ture that Readbud may control the articles after $30 because I had also faced such experience. But please note that after reaching and claiming my $50 since more than 3 months, I have not got a single penny from them or any kind of response as I have written them for several times. More over I have more than $21 in their acount and I had stopped rating for their articles.
I have also written about them in Mylot for some more times which you might not have seen. Anyway, I do not know how much amount you have earned at Readbud, but whatsoever it may be, please do not go ahead and waste your valuable time behind that fake and fraud site. I do not understand why this type of websites cheat the innocent people instead of making their another good business. So, stop there and try to invest your valuable time into any other good and legit websites to earn online. Wish you best of luck.
