WHAT IS INBOX POUNDS? IS INBOX POUNDS A SCAM?

Check out what I made of this site in my in depth inbox pounds review.

There are a growing number of survey related sites on the net and they are often highly popular, despite their low earning potential.

I signed up to inbox pounds to see whether I could make any money on this website, or whether it was just a scam.  These are my results!

What Is Inbox Pounds?

Product: Inbox Pounds Click here to go to the Site
Price: Free, (some cash offers not free)
Review In Brief:  While you won’t make a fortune with Inbox pounds, I reached the £20 threshold fairly easily and was sent a cheque in the post without any issues, I also went on to receive more money from them.

Inbox pounds also has a USA equivalent called Inbox dollars.

Making money & Cashing Out

In order to cash out your earnings, you need to reach a £20.

Inbox pounds will have a large number of people quitting the site before they reach £20 — a majority of people get bored very quickly with survey related websites!

The good news is, Inbox pounds only paid by cheque in the past… and this is slowly changing.

Additional payment options of paid via prepaid visa OR amazon UK giftcard  available.

This will be considerably more appealing for many people and makes it more comparable to other competitors.

At the moment, they’re trying out on a test group of inbox pounds members and I was one of them – see below.

Inbox pounds do provide a good incentive to keep going for that £20….

Inbox pounds gold membership incentive…

If you reach your first payment of £20, you then become a gold member. You get more referral rewards, monthly offers and double search loyalty rewards.

As far as earning potential, it really depends what you are doing.  Regular surveys seem to be around 20-50p, with many being around the 28p mark for a 10-15 minute survey.

At around £1 for an hour, (if you’re lucky!) this is a pretty horrendous going rate.  But this is fairly typical of many survey sites.

Earning Your First Bonus Pound, quickly!

So, you need to earn £20 before you can withdraw.  If you’re planning on just completing surveys, this would take you a very long time.

If you’re open to participating in offers, you will reach that target more quickly.

But you should be aware of potentially being spammed!  Having a separate email account would be useful.

You can earn your first bonus pound right on arrival, but simply filling in your email address.

You can then earn more by completing a to-do-list, which includes completing your profile.

The Surveys & Qualifying:

I decided to check out the paid surveys first, often with survey sites you get thrown off mid-survey and told you do not qualify…so, I expected no different here!

The survey I went for said it would take 10 minutes.  I spent 6 minutes answering questions, to the point where it seemed as though the survey was coming to an end.

THEN I was told I do not qualify and thrown off.

This is extremely common with surveys and it really drives me nuts.

It’s not right that you aren’t compensated for your time when this happens.

Still, I decided to persevere.  But the second time I was thrown off again.

Third time lucky?

Third attempt and I finally managed to complete a survey.  This survey only took 3 minutes however and I made 28 pence.

The next one was 10 minutes long and I earned another 28 pence.

From here on I was accepted somewhere between half and two thirds of the time.  Not great – but I have experienced worse.

Check out – Peanut Lab Surveys:

In the survey section, there is a particular group of surveys called peanut lab surveys – these often have some slightly higher paid ones, (anything from around 30- 55p or so).

You’re only able to do 5 of these particular surveys per day.

While I did get chucked off several, as per usual, some of them were also very short.  I managed to complete two that were just 2 minutes long, which was good going.

Cash Offers, A Quicker Way To Earn:

Next I decided to check out the cash offers.  This is definitely where you can make much more money.

Be cautious before you sign up to any of these though.  One on offer was £2.50 to join mobile Xpression –

it looks somewhat dodgy, because you have to download software on to your phone and from what I’ve read, it can cause problems, (such as slowing down the phone speed and draining battery).

The app monitors your online activity for market research purposes – which all seems a bit “big brother is watching” to me.

I personally decided to sign up to bingo diamond.  The offer was for £12, I had to deposit £10.  So, it’s a £2 profit, with £10 of free play on there.

Once I’d used the initial £10 on the site, I was rewarded to my account — which almost brings my total to £20.  Not much more till cash out time!

Some issues with paid offers….

Paid offers tend to be based on three key areas of interest.

• Sweepstake entries via highly spammy companies, (where even to join the competition, you have to give permission to be contacted by third parties and sometimes via paid texts – you WILL get spammed – read the T&C’s!).

• Casino/bingo sign ups, (where you have to make a minimum deposit, but then they normally give you back at least this much as a reward).

• Free trials, (which you need to remember to cancel, plus you need to hand over your credit card details to sign up).

If you’re not interested in any of the above three things, you’ll struggle to find a decent paid offer to sign up to.  There is the odd thing, but normally for much less reward wise.

Paid For Opening Emails?  Really?

You can also get paid for opening emails on the platform.  But don’t get too excited, it’s only a penny for each one!

I also only had a couple of these per day – so those are definitely not going to pay the bills, but are very quick to do if you felt like it.

Other Ways To Earn with inbox pounds?

You can also earn money via using their online search engine, 

Alternatively, you can play games or complete certain mini tasks, such as researching an answer on the web.

But the best ways that I can see are via some of the regular surveys, or for higher sums, the cash offers.

Inbox Pounds Complaints:

I’ve spotted more complaints popping up these days with inbox pounds, which I feel it’s important to highlight.

Some of the complaints involve credit cards being charged after free offers being taken up.

But this is not the fault of inbox pounds!!

This will not be result inbox pounds themselves, but the company related to the offer they have signed up with.

Often you will have to cancel an ongoing membership after a Free trial sign up, (sometimes cards are still charged despite cancelling, always check your credit card bill).

Doing paid offers can be risky for this reason – always check the T&C’s.

Another reason is being thrown off for not qualifying for surveys, this is a problem with almost every survey site you will come across – so not unique to this site.

Other complaints revolve around support, there is a live chat option now – I’ve personally not had an issue with them so far.
