I have read a lot of negative comments about Readbud on the work from home forums recently. I joined the site a few weeks ago, and receive a good amount of articles each day to review. Unfortunately, a lot of members are saying that once you get to about $40-$45 they start sending you less and less articles, making it that much harder to reach payout ($50). I've heard of quite a few people that are constantly switching their interests in the hopes that they'll receive more articles, but it doesn't seem to be working. I guess the question here isn't so much 'Do they pay?', as it is 'Do they allow you to reach payout?'. As far as I'm concerned, I'm taking a break from them for a while until I personally know someone who reaches payout and gets paid. I don't want to be giving them free reviews! Good luck!

Actually, the articles I was receiving dwindled even before I got to $15. It really sounds too good to be true.

Don't waste your time in readbud. It's better if you stay away form them. It's another big scam. It's become controversial since the first time launched. No one could know or show whether it is legit or not. Furthermore, there are many suspicious thing in readbud. Their articles are illegal, high payout, and unusual referrals system. There are many discussions about this site here. If you want to know, just search them by keyword readbud using mylot search. You will see there are many discussions and most of us here agree that readbud is scam.

I would stay far far away from this site as its been known not to pay. There are far better sites to use that will pay you and not result in you using something that won't. Best of luck with your online earnings.

i dont know really.. i am on my $40+ already and i hope to get more articles so i could reach the min. fast. but it seems that the closer you get to the minimum the lesser articles you can receive.
Moreover, some say they only saw 1 payment proof of that site and some didnt receive their payment because they read the article too fast. And I hope they are wrong. It is so hard to earn $50 it took me more than 2 months before i reached that $40+
I'll PM you soon. If they'll pay me. I even post my payment proof and make a thread..
Good luck to us misheli!!!
have a great day to all!!

Seems like people on Mylot asks this almost every day. Readbud seems like a legit site (good design and everything), but sadly they seem to be a scam. As you reach toward the payout, they start giving you less and less articles to rate. Also, even if you actually do reach the payout, they still won't pay you. There are certain payment proofs out there that says Readbud is legit, but apparently those are just few exceptions.
I would advise you to stop going on readbud, as it will just be a waste of yoru time.
Good luck!

Readbud is surely a scam. How can really afford that amount they are saying. It is impossible for any site to give users that amount of money for doing such a easy work.
