Recently, I've seen many mylotters talking about Toneaday and even saying that it could become a scam. I've seen a post whereby someone has been paid. So, curiosity got the better of me and I tried it out last night and by today, I reached $2 and they are qualifying me. I don't know how it'll turn out but the concept of its payment structure is unique but strange. We rate words based on how we feel and I get a feeling that our rating has to be spot on. Hmm...let me wait for the outcome. For those Toneaday users, the qualifying period will be a week right?

Well, its been more than 2 weeks since i took their qualifying test and until now, i still havent heard from them. I wrote an email too and its been two days since i sent an email and still i got no response. If i never hear from them then i will think that they are a scam site. How about you, did you hear from them already?

Same for me, I haven't heard from them. But, don't be anxious. There are people who get replies after more than a week. Fret not, you'll get the reply, good luck!

I'm considering waiting for another week. If I don't get the money, this should mean that I didn't meet their expectations. We can't say that it's a scam right? Afterall, some people got their payments.

oh,we all are facing the same problem,my friends!
do you think they would still give us those $2 we earned?
or is it a sign that we didn't pass their expectations?
i can see other members here who also joined the site but then they are on their second level now. i guess there's also something about their new policy.

i've just joined there yesterday,i think.but i can't always submit my answers i don't know why it seemed like hanging that's why i can't rate more words even if how much i really wanted too.i hope this really pays and hope it gets faster and never hang for sometime.

Yea the same thing happened to me, as in not all the ratings I can submit. The reason is because they give us 3 tries for each word. I don't know how this works but when a word has been given to me twice, I refresh the page.

I'm still waiting for their review. I hope I can get through. Usually when there are some repeatings of words i rate them but have to wait for a VERY long time so I might as well refresh the page.

ah,is that so? well,if ever i had some repeatings of words,i still rate them though.but now i have been waiting for my payout of $2 they said it may take a week before they pay.and for me to know if i have been qualified for the next rounds,i guess.
how about you?have you earned the $2? are you on the second level already?

I too am waiting to be qualified, it has been almost a week for me so far with no e-mail
I do not think it is a scam though because someone I consider very trustworthy on here is the one who told me about it. I know she definitely got paid. They are restructuring though in September so I am thinking that they want to try to hold off as long as they can to qualify people. That is just my two cents for whatever it is worth.

Well, I am not familiar with the site but one thing I can say for sure is that if it hs complex procedures then it is for sure a scam site

As you have said above, you can do nothing but to wait for their further reply.
I became a member of Toneaday three days ago. After rating the 100 words that they provide, I earned 2 dollars. But according to their guidelines, I can't receive this earnings because they need to review my date.
Yes, that is to say, if my data can't be accepted by them, then I can't gain nothing at last.

Yea we've to wait for their review. Last time users were able to withdraw that $2 immediately, which was a haven for spammers and people who want to game the system. Hmm...I hope they review my rating well. And sorry for replying so late.

Don't worry. After you reached $2, they will review your ratings. If they decided that your ratings are appropriate, meaning you go through every word carefully and give correct or appropriate ratings, they will pay you.

i also use this site, and i got my 2 $ in 2 days after i aplied...well actually you get 1.80$ because you need to donate 0.20$ to charity ...but i think that this is one of the best earning sites out there (i might be wrong because i am new to this stuff :P )

You got the money in two days??? That's incredible! Many people need a week or so!

I received my 1.80 in 30 minutes, but now I am waiting almost a week for my 2nd and 3rd payment.

I think a week is the max. I qualified within 24hours and my first payout was in my paypal account immediately.
Our rating doesn't neccessarily have to be "spot on" as the point of the website is to find out how people would be affected by reading those words in an email/letter/etc.
The reliablity of the rating is determined by the time taken to rate it and how well it correlates to other people reactions to the same words.

I also tried Readbud. They have articles anytime in the day and daily. But their payout is $50. It should take a month or so to reach that amount. But, somebody already has reached that amount and has received payment.

I don't know whether it is a scam or not.. but, I think it is nice joining and earning there.
At first when I read that Toneaday is probably a scam, I start to feel disappointed cause I really wish it could be fun like mylot.
I joined Toneaday as well. Just see what happen next. ^^ Keep updating the news, friends!

Many sites like this are bound to be reported as scams. But we don't know the detail to it. So, let's just wait and see!

But it doesn't seem like the case hmm... I've seen on some sites that some people have already got their payment.

I don't know, but I've waited over 2 weeks for my $2 payout. It's gone on a lot longer than I expected. They haven't said whether or not I've qualified (I don't know why I wouldn't, though, since I took my time going through it!). I guess I'll continue to wait and hope for the best ;) Good luck!

Hi, as I've not added you as a friend, I can't send you a PM. I've added you already. Ok, Toneaday is a site for rating words and for every word you rate, they pay you 2 cents. When you have rated 100 words, and reached $2, they'll review your ratings to double check if you are gaming their system or not. If everything goes well, you'll get paid and can continue using the site :) I hope this helped you!
