UPDATE: Removed all my points on my account but they allowed me access again to use it. This was my fault.

Point being, watch what you click when you use autofill and don't use any invalid info or you'll be banned instantly. It's a good site if you don't abuse it.

Original review posted by user Jul 23, 2015

Started using the site a month or two ago. It worked fine for a while, no problems. But I was using autofill to speed up the tedious process of typing in the same thing over and over again. There were different sets of information stored in my autofill because my friend uses my pc when he comes over to sign up for gaming websites, social media, and emailing and things of that nature; he just didn't want all this spam mail and calls coming to his house unsolicited so he used a fake name/address. ***I repeat, not on this site but on different websites.***

So apparently once, maybe a few times (not too sure), I slipped up and clicked the wrong set of info while filling out a survey because I typically do them as I'm watching tv. Apparently it tipped off the system to fraud. So my account was locked twice, to which the customer service was very expedient in unlocking and letting me back into the system, which I thank them for. I figured something was up so I checked my autofill, realized my mistake, and immediately cleared out the bad information so it would never happen again and since have been making sure all info is my correct info.

Now here's the thing, they don't tell you at all that your account is in bad standing, you may just notice you can't send out any messages. I thought that was weird but figured it was something that would go away in time. Now I worked hard yesterday to earn like $25, narrowly winning the offer contest of the day for $8, which is great for a website like this, much better than one could hope to get from swagbucks. But then when I went to do my nightly cash out process, to my chagrin it said my account isn't allowed to cash out. Whaattt? I just worked all day for literally no reason?

So quickly I submitted a ticket explaining what happened. After waiting for a few hours, they asked for my info so I verified it, then asked for my friends info. I vaguely remembered what he typed in typically so I gave them that. But again, this was false info he was using on other websites so it probably seemed like I was scamming the system, which I would never do. No response, confirming my suspicion of suspected scamming. Another message, and now my ticket is "on hold," basically from what I take from it, never to be responded to, throwing it in the pile of "trash and scamming." Yet I'm still able to do surveys and make them money, which seems a little off.

Basically a good site to use but if you accidentally type in the wrong info, you'll be blacklisted, a problem I've never encountered on swagbucks, which against my preference, I've resorted back to using.

I'll keep this site posted if they happen to work with me to make my points available again but it seems like I'm already blacklisted as a fraud. I'd love to continue using their site as I believe it is the best out there but I'm doubtful now because I just wasted a good portion of my day trying to get points that can't be redeemed ):
