$27.03, I got a check from INBOXDOLLARS!  |
|
I'm so glad that I'm a gold member at Inboxdollars. I cashed approximately 14 days ago. I love the fact that they automatically make you a gold member after you've cashed out with them. I think that was definitely the right move. Now as a add perk for gold members, I think they should waive the $3.00 fee they take to send you your check. That's my personal assessment though.
What do you think, do you think it's fair that they give you a $5 sign-up bonus and then take $3 back just to send you the check that you so rightfully deserve? I think they should do like wordlinx did and go the PAYPAL route, and charge a much lesser fee.
Are you a member of INBOXDOLLARS? Are you a member of their sister site SENDEARNINGS? What do you think regarding the check fee? Do you think they should go with Paypal, and charge a much lesser fee, like maybe $0.50?

1. AJ88xA8 (186) | 5 months ago | Good question. Yes I do agree with you completely, there should not be a fee that high for such a low amount of payment! That is a little ridiculous. I don't even join sites that don't pay out to paypal or alertpay. But as far as that goes I really do think they should change over to paypal and make the fee less, especially if they become more prosperous. If they end up making a lot of money they should change the fee to nothing like many PTC and GPT sites already have, then the users surely would be happier and everyone would win.:-) Happy MyLotting

2. BuffMom (1971) | 5 months ago | I love that site too. They always pay. I do hate the fee and wish it would be lowered.

hdjohnson (1174) | 3 months ago | Yeah if they used Paypal, I think paypal would only charge them 3% which is much better than 10%. They could simply pass their paypal fees on to us.

3. AmbiePam (15250) | 5 months ago | I didn't know they charged three dollars for cashing out. How strange. By the way, I clicked on your banner for the site yesterday and signed up.

Thanks so much, I saw that I had a new referral, but didn't get around to thank you yet. Hope you like it. Yeah, they charge a $3 fee to process your checks. So the $5 signup bonus is really none existent, after you've cashed out two times like I have. Maybe one day, they'll get a clue.

6. happymommy3 (1134) | 3 months ago | Congrats on your second payment right? I totally forgot about the fee. It's been since 2007 that I received my first payment from them. I'm only a few dollars away from my second. I check my ads that we receive in our e-mail and that's it. So I recently logged into the site and checked my account. To my surprise I found that I am not a goldmember anymore? Yeah, very disappointing. I know I became a goldmember because I remember seeing it after I received my first check. So now the bar shows "almost there! Go for gold!" I contacted them through "live chat". Which was no help at all, it was so automated, and not live. I was told they would send my concerns to the concerned department. I finally got an e-mail back and they still did not answer my question. Now they're saying my account will be automatically updated to gold membership after my first check is received after Jan. 2008. I received my first check Aug. 2007 and I remember seeing my membership change to gold. I don't know how else to get ahold of them. I think it is very unfair that I've already received a check and now have to wait another 30 days or more for my second check, and to be upgraded! I just might delete my account after I receive my second check. It's taken another year just to receive another 30.00, well not even with the fees so I'm not sure it's worth it anymore. Oh, I'm also a member of sendearnings and am only about 50 cents away from my first check there. So that account might be deleted soon too.

hdjohnson (1174) | 3 months ago | It's easy just to click on their emails (which is all I do now) Plus if you get some referrals, they might complete some offers that might give you a nickel or dime here and there. LoL! I don't mind the wait as I've seen their longevity and they pay, even though it takes a long while.

7. jebbbbzzzdebebz (124) | 3 months ago | does anyone know if there's a certain reason why sites like this DON'T use paypal?

A check is a way for them to safe guard their monies. Because the money sent or processed has an expiration date, but if they sent it via paypal, it wouldn't have an expiration date. You'd be surprised at how many people don't cash the checks they receive in the mail.

8. involved62 (631) | 3 months ago | I am a member of inbox dollars, and like you have become a gold member after my first cashout. I do not have enough yet for a second cashout so I wonder myself what does being a gold member mean? Your proposal is a sound one. Should we not petition together with the other members to Inboxdollars to waive this $3 fee when cashing out? They should definitely use Paypal because a check takes some time, while Paypal is instant unless processing takes the same time. I am also a member of Sendearnings but I hardly get emails from them. I am only active on Inboxdollars.

hdjohnson (1174) | 3 months ago | hi involved~ Thanks for your reply as a gold member the primary benefit is you won't have to wait 2 months for your check. It will get to you in about 2 weeks instead. My second one for $27.03 came in about 10 days.
Regarding Sendearnings, have you completed the surveys there. I usually get about the same amount of emails from them as I get from InboxDollars. Hope it helps.
I don't think a petition will help in today's economy, as InboxDollars can always bring up the excuse of cost of paper, etc.. Plus a check is a way for them to safe guard their monies. Because the money sent or processed has an expiration date, but if they sent it via paypal, it wouldn't have an expiration date. You'd be surprised at how many people don't cash the checks they receive in the mail.

involved62 (631) | 3 months ago | Thanks for the info about the benefits of a being a gold member. I must admit, I just click on emails and hardly do any surveys because I prefer to do my OTX surveys on Quickrewards (although there are others on IB dollars but I never qualify). So I can only expect cashout at the end of the year, if at all.

9. angelajoy (958) | 2 months ago | I really wanted to join this site because it looks so good and it has lots of earning opportunities. But when I read that it pays members through check, I changed my mind. Why can't they pay people through paypal? Every respectable GPT site should pay through paypal. It's really inconvenient for international members to wait for checks.
