In the case of surveys - Well yes it can! But, is it worth all the hassle? You must have a clear idea of what you are trying to achieve and of the trustworthy sites that you will get paid from and what amounts you are likely to make. Writing Blogs? We'll see!

Progress at last

Well I've not actually withdrawn anything yet but here is my latest account info:


$26 ready to withdraw.

My earnings rate has stayed fairly flat at just above o.6 per rented referral per day and I'm down to 1111 rented referrals from 1235.

Here's the graphic:








I have a little dilemma now, should I renew all referrals that I choose to do for 90 days to get maximum discount or follow my current policy? I need to really think this through given that I really want to get cash out. Which is my priority? Possible future profits or cash now?

Neobux progress report

Rented referrals down to 1146 today's clicks very disappointing. Just two days to go until I should be able to build a pot to cashout.

Did a bit if maths and found that if I retained just my top sixteen clicking referrals I would, with my own clicks, draw out more than I did per year than I did with 1235 rented referrals. I'm not really sure Neobux is a scam but...

Neobux Income Begins to Collapse

Let me first say that I'm not at all surprised by it but the collapse in my referral has begun in earnest.

Have a look at this:

Given that the referrals I am not renewing are ones that have clicked at a very low rate you would think that the click rate of the remainder would increase, wouldn't you? In fact the opposite is happening. I'm really wishing I had taken screenshots in July just after I had renewed my Gold membership when the click rate jumped up and with 1235 referrals I was getting around 1600 referral clicks a day. After a week or two it returned to the 840 a day average I was used to.

All very dodgy and I think I can be sure the whole program is massaged. Very disappointing - and I fell for it!

Update on Neobux Scam

My withdrawal strategy is as simple as can be. Do not renew if average clicks is less than 0.8 and when required renew those with an average greater than 1.0 for 90 days the rest being renewed for 30 or 60 days depending on cash available.

Progress? Not much yet. My rented renewals have reduced from 1235 to 1201 but the clicks I am receiving has remained much the same!

From the 28th of August I have a number of days with few renewals due and whereas in the past I would have reinvested this money I shall this time aim to withdraw.

I am due payouts at Donkeymails and No-minimum however due to the reduction in PTP rate at Donkeymails I will be using EQOO2 as the focus of my cashouts now.

Over the next week or two I will write honestly about where I have been earning money lately and I shall write a long article on PTP.

Neobux Scam?

I have here to be open and admit to my utter stupidity - I rather let things go with Neobux and took my eye off the ball. All of a sudden I realise how much I have invested and with little prospect of getting it back.

How did it happen? Well here is my tale of woe...

Look at the numbers:

Invested so far = $720.00

Amount received = $225.08 (re-invested of course)

The banners show this:





Of the amount earned it has all been reinvested of course so the reality is that I have lost $720 so far although I am a Gold (Sapphire) member with 1235 referrals. My major concern at the moment is how to get out whilst minimising losses.

All my referrals are now rented as my direct referrals have become inactive; even the Gold ones. I can't believe I never spotted that. Never mind I was probably too caught up promoting GDI!

I will update here on my exit strategy.
