A couple of months ago I submitted a lot of reviews to the site comparedby.us... I was supposed to receive my payment in january but they kept delaying it with the excuse of their new ranking sistem...february came and I got a nice (not) email from them saying that I was not going to get paid because of absurd reasons...so Im wondering, was it just me or is this common and they just make you write and then dont pay? I was thinking of trying to register again but if in the end it is just a scam I am not going to waste my time with them again...how was your experience with them?

Well i was member of this site and i did few reviews and lots of helpful or not and one day i find those $ which they said for helpful or not were gone and then i cant put on more reviews and i think this site expanded far too fast that it expected and thus might end up not being able to handle all the traffic .

Hello. Comparedbyus acted in the past as a scammer, changing everyday their rules, deleting some kind of earnings AFTER people already done the job, that was supposed to be paid but was turned into a FREE duty, because they decided to don't pay that activity anymore, and they not paid also the past done. And to be sincere, the impression is "100 writers, 1 paid". I don't think their behavior is serious for a business, so i leaved the site long time ago. I suggest you don't waste your time on that site, and use the ciao site instead. Ciao is serious and always pay their member (if they are not plagiarist, of course). Happy earnings.

They do pay, but it seems only if you make it past the beginner stages. Also it seems that if you don't follow their rules to the dot, they will use this to delete all your reviews. So it is a paying site, but you have to make sure to fully read the FAQ first.
