DO NOT USE

February 7, 2019 by Jesus from United States

I have used Inbox Dollars for a week and I asked for my 30$ payment and they made me pay a 3$ processing fee! Then I didn't even get my payment of 27$ I have to wait 13 whole days! I expected it to come early but its already been a week and a half and most survey sites I use let me get my money RIGHT AWAY and IN FULL AMOUNT but this site is BULL-KAKA!

rip off

July 5, 2018 by holly from United States

THIS IS THE WORST SITE IVE EVER SEEN! THEY ASK YOU SO MANY QUESTIONS THEN DECIDE YOU DONT QUALIFY AND WONT EVEN COMPENSATE YOU FOR YOUR TIME!!! SO IF YOUR GOING TO USE THIS SITE I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU HAVE A TON OF TIME ON YOUR HANDS AND BE READY FOR DISAPPOINTMENT. MOST OF THE TIME YOU ANSWER ALL THESE QUESTIONS AND THESE COMPANIES ARE GETTING WHAT THEY WANT FROM YOU BUT WONT PAY YOU!!! NOT TO MENTION YOU CAN CASH OUT AT 30 DOLLARS BUT THEY CHARGE YOU A 3 DOLLAR FEE. THEY OFFER TO PAY THAT FEE IF YOU GO TO 40 BEFORE CASHING OUT. ONLY THATS A LIE TOO!!! BECAUSE ONCE I GOT TO 40 ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY SAY OH ITS 50 NOW. I SAY LOOK ELSE WHERE AND DO SURVEYS ON ANOTHER SITE

This one upsets me

June 14, 2018 by Michele from United States

I was clicking my paid emails for inbox dollars daily. My amount reached $32.60 and has been stuck at that amount ever since. If I click on the paid emails, I am not being credited. I contacted them TWICE about the situation and tried to explain - I received responses, but no actual help. I am still stuck at the same amount, unable to move forward. I am angry that I have wasted so much time clicking these stupid emails, only to be stuck. Now I have wasted a huge amount of time here for absolutely NOTHING!! HUGE WASTE OF TIME - COMPLETE RIP OFF! Thanks a lot crappy inbox dollars!

Does not give payouts when due...

May 28, 2018 by Margaret from United States

I have had soooo many surveys that they say thanks for finishing the survey, and once redirected back to inbox dollars, it says sorry you don't qualify. Then they don't give the payout. So I have to contact customer service, some times they're nice, sometimes rude, sometimes they give me a portion of what I earned, sometimes nothing. I wouldn't bother with them.

Not worth your time.

February 22, 2018 by Edward from United States

The Surveys will disqualify you almost instantly and the ones that don't are either over quota or disqualify you halfway through. Billy's Spin & Win is disappointing, out of all of the prizes on the wheel all you'll ever win is Scratch & Win progress or nothing at all. And the Scratch & Win is worthless, it promises up to $10, $25 and $100 but you'll get less than $0.10 every time.
