I signed up yesterday (5.00 sign on bonus) and found out you have to have 30.00 to get a payout. I am fine with that but I am wondering if anyone has used them and how long does it take to reach the payout amount? It seems pretty legit, but I would like to hear from an actual user who has reached payout. Thanks

Unless you are really interested in the offers, it takes forever to reach $30, and then they will take out a processing fee ($3, I believe). Plus, it will take 2 months to receive your check and you must stay active during that time. I am still waiting for my first check. Although I was active for years, several offers I completed were never credited, and so they stopped sending me paid emails, and, no matter what I do, how active I am, or anything else, they will not reinstate the paid emails (which is the easiest way to make money on the site).
It is not a scam, per se, but it is not an easy, well-paying site either, and the customer "service" is pretty much useless. I do not recommend this site.

Do you have an active payment request with them now? If you're not getting paid mails, your account has been set to inactive and they won't send your payment.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one having issues with getting offers to credit so I can keep my account active. I thought I was doing something wrong but I guess maybe it's something on their end after all.

I dont like inbox dollars as they pay only through checks and not to any online payment processors.Also it is very hard to reach the payout there

I've gotten a few checks from InboxDollars. How long it takes you to get to payout will depend on what you do there. You can earn a lot more by doing offers than just by reading paid mails and using their search.
You need to complete at least one offer every so often to keep your account active. If you don't, they will send you fewer paid emails, and if you still don't do any offers they will set your account to inactive and not send you a single mail. It's supposed to be easy to reactivate your account--just do an offer that credits--but my account's been inactive for ages and none of the offers I've tried have credited.
