Decent but Could Be Better

I’ve been using InboxPounds for a while now, and while the platform is easy to use, I find myself a bit disappointed with how few surveys I receive each week. It’s frustrating when you’re ready to participate but there just isn’t enough opportunity. I do appreciate the variety of ways to earn (like reading emails and doing small tasks), but the surveys were what I was most interested in. If they could increase the number of available surveys or improve the match rate, I’d definitely consider giving a higher rating. Still, not a bad platform if you're patient.

Worst Experience of All The Many Survey Sites I Use

I have been a member of inbox pounds for almost 10 years, & had always found them to be fine - but for some reason, a few months ago, my account was closed down with no explanation. Fortunately, I had not long redeemed a reward at the time - so I didn't lose too much of my own hard earned money! I decided to open a new account using a different email address, & from that point on my experience was much worse. 1st of all the number of surveys that carried a decent return for the amount of time they took to complete was significantly lower; & 2ndly I discovered that the lowest voucher denomination I could claim was £25 (where it had been only £10) Consequently it took ages before I reached what I thought was my target - only find that in order to claim a £25 voucher I actually had to earn £32.50! Seriously! I laboriously struggled on towards that point - but the task became even harder as the "earn for searches" feature disappeared as well! Finally I have been able to claim a voucher, & have waited until I have spent it before writing this review - just in case I then found that I was mysteriously unable to use my hard won rewards! Needless to say, I will not be using this utterly rubbish site again........

I like Inbox Pounds well enough, but am recently finding it difficult to qualify for surveys and actually earn some money.

Started off well

Started off well, nice games easy to earn, easy to understand and simple terms.

Then problems with earnings, games not tracking, payout system changed with no warning, so a "commission" must be paid. Eg cash out £5, need £6.50 in the account.

The payout was final straw, cashed out and won't go back. Then they send me an email, asking for a review... Ok.

This site is no longer worth using. You can spend ages doing surveys and not get any credit. Avoid.

If I could give one star I would

If I could give one star I would! No more search related earnings, surveys are tedious for little money - the more lucrative ones you never seem to qualify for and now you have to pay a fee to get your own earnings - disgusting.

SCAMMERS WHO IGNORE EMAILS

A lot of times, you don't get paid for filling in surveys even though it shows you the success page. When contacting them about it, they send an automated page saying "You got disqualified from this survey" even though you clearly weren't. Despite sending screenshots and survey ID they ignore your emails, until they block your account from taking any survey at all.

Dave is very unhelpful and contributes to this company's scamming goals. He gaslights customers pretending that they were disqualified and says "there was a reason we blocked you from completing surveys". Illegal company, I hope they get closed down

I like the survey's but don't have a lot of time to do them which is why I REALLY liked getting points from searching. It's a pity inboxpounds has stopped it. This is why I have only giving 3 stars.

Not as good as they were

They used to be good but now they take 30% of your earnings and have also taken away the search facility. I am not sure if I will use them again.

Points Devalued

The points were recently devalued. Therefore if you do a 50p survey it is worth 40p.
So to get a £5 reward you need to earn £6.50p

This used to be good

This website used to be good. The penny search initially drew me in along with the paid emails, and then surveys, games and special offers on the side. I wasn't making a fortune, but it paid for a family takeaway a year so it was worth it for me.

Then. It. All. Went. Bad.

The emails abruptly stopped one day with just one or two occasionally appearing. The search function has been taken away - and that was after a penny per search being changed to a penny for 4 searches! The surveys are rarely worth the time as you are not eligible after filling a lot of details out! And the games occasionally scammed you - I went for a £50 one, filled all criteria, paid real money to win and it was null and void.

And now, to add insult to injury, you have to pay them money to receive your money! Absolutely stinks. I need 15p to get a fivers worth out because I need £6.50 for the privilege. Don't know if I can be bothered.

If you're new to it. There must be better out there, go elsewhere.

No longer worth it …

This site used to be fair but the search to earn has disappeared and they now change a huge fee to redeem. Once I get my next voucher I'm closing my account.

Moving away from being the best

Used to be great rewards and easy to convert however in recent months Inboxpounds have started to charge a fee for converting rewards. It’s seriously making me reconsider after being a member for ten years. It also means I’m not considering low value surveys where the net earnings are less than 10p which will impact those using Inboxpounds services.

It's all surveys now

It's all surveys now, virtually no ads. The surveys are always longer than quoted and not worth the effort. Any that pay better, you never qualify for.
