I have heard from different people that project payday is a scam, while others swear by it. Does anyone do it? What is your experience? Is it like cashcrate? Thanks!

I didn't like it at all. It ended up a horrible experience for me but that's just my opinion.

I looked at Project Payday and joined and tried to go through their tutorial but got frustrated. I did some more research and found that many people were fed up with this site and were going to a new site freelunchroom.com

I tried it for a couple of weeks, but like the previous poster, this was not for me. But the people at freelunchroom were very helpful, there are a lot of forums and step by step guides posted if you want to go and take a look to see what it's all about. A poster on this forum, Natfly2000 was very helpful to me when I joined freelunchroom. (when I met her there I didn't know she was part of wahm.com). She recently posted here:

Hi. It's good to hear some feedback on Project Payday as it is a program that's I've mentioned before based on other websites that refer it. But it's always best to get the inside scoop from people who've tried it.

Thanks for the reviews and here's to wishing you all the best,

Annie

I think that basically what it is is that people will pay you to complete offers so that they can "go green" on some sites... I think it is great as long as you can keep good track of your offers that you do and if you do want to cancel to make sure to do it before the cancel by date:)

I thought PP was a nightmare. Someone mentioned freelunchroom.com...to the best of my knowledge, freelunchroom is owned or sponsored or whatever by PP. Regardless, I went through the PP tutorials and then signed up with freelunchroom and devoted A LOT of time to working with people trying to go green. It took me 2 weeks, $120 of my money, and a HUGE fight with my credit card company to make about $100. All in all, I ended up spending $20 out of pocket and I went through a lot of aggravation. Most of these offers require a valid phone number and address. I did this 6 months ago and I am still inundated with telemarketing calls and junk mail.

That was my experience for completing offers for other people. When I tried to advance and get people to complete offers for me what I found was that the site is so saturated with members trying to get the newbs to pick them that it's a total crap shoot whether or not someone will go with you. I spent another whole week trying to recruit people to complete offers for me and I didn't get a single bite. You could say maybe I did something wrong, but I followed their instructions to a T and talked with mentors and in the end all they could tell me was to be patient. How patient do I have to be after 3 weeks with no income? Night...mare.

They swear it's legitimate and I guess technically it is, but it was not worth the time and effort I put into it. I would warn anyone who is thinking of trying this to beware.

Sorry for being so long winded, but that experience really irritated me and I would hate to see someone else go through it. If you do decide to try it anyway, best of luck to you smileys/smiley1.gif

Have a great day everyone!
