Inbox Dollars getting sillier and sillier

Does anyone still use Inbox Dollars? I have continued to open their paid emails and OCCASIONALLY do one of their offers, here and there, and occasionally a survey. But, I usually don't qualify and they don't pay very well. Hmph. I reached payout after doing a couple offers in the last couple months and I noticed that now the payout process has gotten even MORE ridiculous. You can only order a check in increments of $30, $40, $50 (I believe). So, if you earn $35, the $5 will sit in your account until you earn a straight $30 (or 40, or 50). Seems kind of ridiculous if you ask me. Prior to this, you could get a check sent to you for whatever amount you earned BUT they would take a "$3 check fee" out of the check amount. Which is ridiculous, because for a long time you could ONLY get your money via check. Now I think they also have gift card options, but who knows what they take out of them (and I believe you can only get a $30, $40, $50 gift card). I am a little annoyed with their system and how it seems to progressively get worse. Ah. But I still use them, because I don't know of many other survey sites. Do you use InboxDollars too?

I have tried the site then. Most of the offer does not work in my country.

Yeah, I know that is true, a lot of the survey sites are for the US.

You can play their games and earn at least .15 or more a day. And watch vids . It all adds up

That's sillier as you have said and I do agree with you. Better stop or discontinue it.

I know that ID has been around for quite some time. If I remember correctly, I used to work that site. I don't know if I still have an active account with them or not. Some of these sites seem to loose their edge after a while. They can tend to be harder and more frustrating to work.

Yes! Exactly. "Cheaper" surveys and more difficult to qualify for.

I do use Inboxdollar but I’ve never had my over the $30 just go and sit normally it call comes plus the $3 they take out to restart me back up. They did do a few months back where the $3 was dropped to zero and they gave you a free $3 to start because of covid. The new changes have to do with giving people more options to redeem our.

@maezee they have always had the $3 but they did the last few months do the you get to keep your $3 and goes in which whatever payment option you choice plus the $3 instead back. But I do believe they stop sound that and it’s back to taking the $3 to just restart you. I’m still a few dollars way from redeem out.

Mike has used them, not sure if he still does or not. They aren't the only company who has made earning harder as of late. Guess it is hard on them when sponsors stop giving to them.

Ug,h, their surveys have always been not very well paying, from what I can remember. Half an hour for 25 cents? Crazy.

I have not used it. I looked into it once way back when and didn't like what I saw so I never used it.

Yeah. I wouldn't suggest it. Do you use any other survey sites?

I think I am waiting to receive a PayPal payout from them, or something. $30. I only make payout about once a year. Paid Viewpoint is my best survey site. I also like Lifepoints and Branded Surveys. I am on Swagbucks, and Mypoints. SB owns MyPoints and Inbox Dollars. Pretty soon the sites will all look alike. I do Microsoft Rewards, but it is not surveys, it is quizzes. I do it every morning and it takes less than five minutes. I am on Pollbuzzer plus but it seems I never qualify for anything.

I still use inboxdollars. I play their video games too. I cashed out once and now am at 10.00. just something to fiddle with on my phone. Like rewarded play, mylot, Swagbucks, ysense, and others. I hear prizerebel is good for surveys
