Has Anyone Been Paid By SlashMySearch?

I joined SlashMySearch ages ago then forgot about it for awhile, then a friend here posted about it so I went back and started using it. I've now earned over $300 and on April 19 I requested a payout of $275.50; before then I wasn't able to request payout but this time it said I was eligible and after I clicked the "Request" button it said I'd be paid within 1-3 business days via my PayPal account. Needless to say, I was thrilled to death but I haven't gotten the payment so far. I figured if I actually got paid I'd start promoting this site like crazy but that I'd wait until I had the money in my PayPal account because I don't want to mislead anyone. I know there are others here who have joined SMS so tell me, have any of you actually gotten your money? I really don't mind waiting a bit longer if I'm going to get it but I don't want to rely on false hopes either. Annie

I have heard of them, but never took part in their program. What you should do first is contact them. I would also look them up at the Better Business Burearu online and see if anyone has ever mentioned this site. I hope you get your payment. It sounds like you worked hard for it.

SMS is non-responsive and has their identity hidden from WhoIs. They claim to have made payment to PayPal so I have instigated a PayPal "blackball" on every SMS contact I can find. They'll get theirs in the end!

I've joined slash my search too and requested payout back in March. As i still haven't been paid i've given hope with slash my search. Shame really, it did seem like quite a good earner. Oh well

March? Now I'm really discouraged! Oh well, is right, at least I didn't pay anything to join or anything. Annie

This is the first I have heard of this site. I have no clue if they are a scam but if they say 1-3 bus. days and you get nothing then I would definitely say they are a scam. I hope you get the money your earned and have a nice day.

I've never heard of that one but if you haven't been paid yet I would be a little leary.

SMS has turned out to be a scam! They owe me a several grand. Try this paid search: http://www.mysearchfunds.co.uk/apply001.asp?Friend=58954 It's not the grandiose claims of SMS but they do appear to payout. For my level of searching it should be worth a hundred pounds per month.
