Not received my giftcard do not recommend. Not received as stated would do took me months to do not very good
4/5 for easy and smooth redemption process, 0/5 for the recent removal of the search and earn feature, which was my main source of income from Inboxpounds, and the introduction of service charges e.g. a £10 Amazon gift card now costs £13. If you've got £16.40 in your account, as I did, you should be able to withdraw as much of that as possible if not all of it.
I want to know what has happened to the £30 cash out I claimed on Monday. I received codes for the £1 and £5 Amazon gift cards, but not the £30 one at the time of writing this review. Why?
I participated in a survey on the website and receive cash for participating and it is a good website that rewards you with cash or vouchers for taking part in surveys and completing them and earning the rewards.
Still awaiting a £5 payment. Very slow company to pay when a payment is due. Other survey companies pay immediately.
Still awaiting my payout for doing surveys for this company.I have been doing surveys for this company for many years. This keeps happening.
I regularly do surveys for this company. Very unreliable at paying rewards when they are due. Constantly have to contact them to pay up.
Great site for earning extra pounds to treat yourself. Currently awaiting a payout but never experienced any problems previously.
I played a few games, made £50/£66 in almost 4 days now to be credited and now they kicked me out apparently because they noticed? WOW! You are a scam! Thankfully for me, I was just investigating websites like this one, so I didn't invest a lot of time in it, nor did I really need the cash. So turns out, if you do make a profit on this website (even only £66), they will find your account and block it from you being able to login at their end. And when you ask for a password, in case you forgot it and the problem is at your end, the system doesn't send one anymore. It doesn't recognise you as a new user or an old one either, you're effectively blocked from accessing the potential gift cards with the email that you signed up with on this website! I tried signing up with a new email and it does work! You are in! (So it's not the IP or the firewall). But if you try to use an email that has a sure profit of £66 to be credited in the next few days, you're out! Would you look at that? You've helped me though, unknowingly. I would have wasted my life and my time on all kinds of things, and I would wasted it poorly if it wasn't for this enlightening experience of... oh wait, there are no honest, well-intentioned business owners of this! There is no way to make even the smallest profit this way! And now I know and you will never see me try these offers again! Thank you for the enlightenment, for your inability to be fair and honest and even reach into your little pocket for a meagre £66! Business is that bad? I'm not the one that decided this would be a sane business model, you did! And I bet you're suffering because of it, as the business owner, which you totally deserve... When you start something, you do it right, or you don't do it at all, you don't make false promises, that's the first way to lose your customers. Have fun with your $#*! business!
Policy has changed so now it takes £6.80 of earnings to redeem £5 paypal cash. Sorry, I won't be doing anymore surveys with you, they're already low paid and unreliable in paying in the first place.
Avoid opinion. Life and any tv pilot surveys. You will spend 30-50 minutes doing a whole survey only to be disqualified at the end.
30% to cash out your earnings, what a ripoff I cashed out £100 and was charged £30 on top and when did this charge start as it was free to cash out last year so all that I have earned this year did not even cover the 30% charge. I am thinking of closing my account
Really good site, No problems wirh the experience at all so far. Have completed a number of surveys which are varied and relevant to myself and my family. Have recently earned enough points to cash out my first reward and now looking forward to spending it.
Rewards are easy to claim, you can cash out when you earn £5, but sometimes you have to earn over £6.50 to claim rewards which can be a bit annoying.
Easy to do, just a shame you have to wait so long for them to be paid into your account. Especially as you have already verified your account.
It has taken months to reach 'payout' so you can imagine how I felt finding that cashing out no longer has a 'pay into your bank ' option as it used to.
Now you have to 'purchase' a gift voucher and for redeeming a £5 gift voucher it costs £6.50!
I 'redeemed' a gift voucher for the value of £15 which has actually cost me £19.50!
To say I am unhappy is an understatement. I
I feel this is a total rip off. It costs you 30% of your earnings to redeem.
Hi there, I'm having issues with my verification over my mobile number to redeem my Amazon voucher, I was wondering if you could be so kind to help me out. My email account is *******@talk21.com.
Please contact me asap.
Thank you and happy new year.
Al.
I did everything I was asked and waited for voucher as requested and still am. And can't get any real communication from support center
A smooth running site & it credits your progress on games, but I have waited now for a while for vouchers that I have redeemed it says 2-3 business days but no payment sadly.
Unpaid game installs, took 15 years to cash out. 20 minutes for a survey to be told I'm ineligible, then get a spin to win 0 or 1p. Unable to get hold of customer service EVER when I have had questions or been unhappy. Waste of time.
The ability to make money is cool but the website and advertising is misleading. To be able to redeem any gift the website states it is a minimum "£5" required in your balance to get a gift card. Untrue! The minimum is £15 and I don't understand why the developers can't be honest. The turnaround takes too long and considering how long it takes to get to the £15 minimum, it is frustrating to get there and have to wait for the developers to get themselves in gear. It's not on! Things need to change
I have been using InboxPounds for 10 months now and enjoy using this excellent site and participating in the things it has to offer. These include OFFERS which you can save money on various retailers, play games that you can earn money from after completing. SEARCH and earn each day.
I enjoy taking surveys every day and I'm very gratefull for the cash rewards I have received as a result. Thank you InboxPounds.
I have been using InboxPounds since September 2023 and I enjoy taking surveys every day.
The site is very easy to navigate and has different ways to earn money from paid surveys to paid emails to paid searches, Spin and Win when surveys are declined and playing games to special money off offers on various services and products. Its a great way to earn money while having fun.
Great company for incentives for survey participation and many opportunities to earn money PayPal and many more to pick from Great customer support and friendly staff
I received this review request as I had requested a cash out, a cash out I am yet to receive: In comparison to other sites who do exactly the same thing, telling me 10 business days for a simply Paypal transfer just means your own infrastructure is lacking. I appreciate you are expecting to be dealing with a smaller audience, localising yourself to the UK, but it doesn't take over a week to setup a simple Paypal transfer.
I should add that several offers haven't tracked, so not sure what your system relies on but some app devs may not wish to pay out fees after a particular limit, so Inboxpounds.co.uk may be pushing invalid offers, absent-mindedly or maliciously.
I applied for an Amazon gift voucher earlier this week but it has no arrived yet today they emailed asking for a review of the cash out can't believe it.very poor experience so far will update if my voucher ever appears
Answer: It's a legit company. I have been paid many times by them
Answer: You might find other companies, but not as trustworthy. Inboxpounds has never cheated me out of an earned payment, unlike many other sites!
Answer: Once I registered, I simply got into doing the surveys and watched my earnings go up... the more you take apart the more you get paid. Good way to make extra money. Great!
