Surveys [OT] Inbox Pounds

[snowwhyte]

I've just come round to seeing these games on inboxpounds. Do you have to put money into the games/apps when you have downloaded them? Or do you just literally play them? I'm a bit confused as to how inboxpounds tracks your progress on the games/apps

It varies, some games require a purchase but most don't.

You click on the game on Inbox, screenshot the terms and then click on the Play store link. You download the game and then check your visited section to see if it shows up. If it's there you are good to go and can play the game.

Once you meet the terms and reach whatever milestone they require take another screenshot showing your level on the game and then check your ledger page to see if the game is pending. If it is not pending wait a day. If it still hasn't shown up click on the game in your visited section, click the button to contact support and submit whatever info they ask for. They will then credit you for the game.

I have had several games that showed in my visited section but didn't pend but I submit a customer service ticket with the evidence and I have always been paid.

Awesome, thanks snowwhyte. I take it the milestones are quite difficult to reach then.

 

[snowwhyte]

It depends on the game. Some are easier than others and some have a tiered payout. Check out what other people say about the game before starting them to see if they're worth your time. Some game requirements aren't achievable but you can find that out before starting them.

New bingo game up on Inboxpounds, Lucky Bingo. It's £20 for reaching either level 55 or 60. They made a mistake and there's two different levels listed even though it's not a tiered offer.

I started Bingo Blitz on Sunday and finished it yesterday and already pending for the £55.00. I didn't even realise that you could play games for money so glad I came across this forum! They did offer me a free month of the premium pass so took that (cancelled and still get the month) so extra bonuses and I did well in the casino part of the game with all my coins to earn extra XP for every spin but it wasn't too awful an experience to get to level 70.

I'm just starting the Puzzles & Survival offer. Any tips?

 

[snowwhyte]

All the games are starting to blur together but I think with Puzzles and Survival as long as you do most of the tasks on the daily list you'll manage to complete it ok. Plus the usual advice of join a good alliance. It's one of the better games but it will take a while to complete.

 

[snowwhyte]

Puzzles and Survival has just increased in price from £40 to £60.20. Same level target.
There's also a new slot game up for £20.

 

[snowwhyte]

I've finished all my current games. I did Merge Dragons to dragon power 600, Farmville 2 to level 21 and Puzzles and Survival to level 18. Puzzles and Survival was the only one that didn't pend immediately. I'll submit a ticket for that in the next few days.

I hope they put up some new games soon. None of the other games currently listed are appealing to me.

 

[LouLou42]

Does anybody know if there is actually a limit on games where they do not give you a limit? I started on Inbox Pounds a month ago and have completed the ones within the time limits but having concentrated on them I have some that I am still plugging away at with no time limit but some of the guides tell you that it's 30 days if no timescale but I cannot see this mentioned on the site anywhere. I would appreciate hearing from anybody if they know the answer to this.

 

[snowwhyte]

It is generally said that if there is no date given then it's 30 days but I don't know where this came from. I've never actually done a game that didn't have a timescale given and it's never taken me more than 30 days to do a game so I don't know if it's true.

It's frustrating as the game is Bingo Holiday but it's slow going and I am on Level 42 and pays £40.00 at Level 50 so I don't mind continuing at the slow pace as it's worth it and not time consuming but it just takes time to get the free coins but if it's not going to pay then I don't really want to waste any more time. Hopefully, somebody will appear here who has experienced a 30+ day payout!

I still haven't got round to playing the games yet. I've realised that one thing which is slowing me down with Instacg and Swagbucks is that some of the tasks need you to sign in with a gmail account. The email that I have linked to Paypal (which I've had for over a decade) is a Yahoo account. Of course I can't vote for a YouTube short with that. I do have a couple of gmail accounts. One in my real name and a couple as aliases. One I used in the days when I thought I could perhaps convince conspiracy theorists of the error of their ways. (Long story short I couldn't). I did hear somewhere that having a yahoo email identifies one as an old-timer - well I am an old-timer. I've asked if there's a workaround - I don't know if there is. I know folk advise having a dedicated email for Paypal but when I signed up for Paypal it was for buying things online (long before the pandemic; it was when I was still working and I've been retired since August 2010 so nearly 13 years - though I did do some actual temping in offices in the early days of my retirement.

I know that beggars can't be choosers and I've managed to complete a few surveys this week but recently one popped up about shopping. I'm not divulging anything (I can't even remember which company was running the survey in any case) but I thought I just couldn't face a survey about shopping. As I don't have a car I tend to do my shopping on a little and often basis and I can't remember exactly when I popped into so-and-so shop (I could probably remember for the current week but not further back in time).

You can add more email addresses to your paypal account. I created my Paypal account using a Yahoo email but because I mainly use gmail, I added my gmail account to my paypal.

So I contacted Inbox Pounds to ask them about my situation above and that I would appreciate it if they could let me know if there is a 30 day rule. I just received a reply to apologise for my negative experience and they have credited my account with £40.00 as a courtesy credit. That was an unexpected result as my email was not negative in any way but I'll take the instant unexpected credit

I just finished the Wizard of Oz slots game for £20. I don't usually have a lot of luck with slots games but I spent £4.80 on an elite pass for this and finished in 5 days. You can set it on autospin and it only needs a bit of supervision so it wasn't too bad.

There is a new game up called Alice's Adventures Mergeland for £125, not to be confused with the Alice's Mergeland offer for £16. It's a combination of a Family Island style game where you use energy digging stuff up and a merge game where you combine a bunch of things in groups of five to build buildings. I started it but apparently it's grindy and difficult and £50 of that is a rebate for in-game purchases and I don't think I'm going to do this one. Hopefully something better comes along.

 

[LouLou42]

So I have now been using Inbox Pounds for over a month after starting my first game on 12 July 2023, I thought I would show my progress for anybody who is thinking of signing up as it is really worth it! I am happy to offer any advice on any of these games if needed. These are all completed payouts

Bingo Blitz	£55.00
Bingo Holiday	£40.00
Empire and Puzzles	£20.00
Lucky Bingo	£20.00
Bermuda Adventures	£20.00
Scrabble Go	£0.50
Club Vegas Slots	£0.50
Family Farm Seaside	£33.00
Yahtzee	£24.00
Live Party Bingo	£17.86
Farmville 2	£20.00
	£250.86

I am just playing the one game at the moment Puzzles and Survival for £60.00 which doesn't require a lot of effort, just a lot of construction!

It's been fairly quiet on Inboxpounds lately and they haven't had that many good game offers. They have some that are high paying but not necessarily doable. They do finally have a game I would recommend though.
Words With Friends 2 is up for £15. You need to complete Steady 1 and steady 2 achievements which is basically just playing 25 player v player words and then 100 player v player words. The offer can be done in about 2 hours. It's a good first game for anyone new to playing games for cash.

 

[snowwhyte]

There's a new slots game up on Inboxpounds for £61 called Legendary Hero Slots. It must be a new offer because I couldn't find any info on it on Reddit so I decided to just give it a go. Unfortunately, it is incredibly difficult and I don't think it is doable. I would not recommend anyone attempt this one.

 

[snowwhyte]

A few more new games up on Inboxpounds but yet again they don't seem worth doing. Lonely Survivor and Slime Legion both have very low payouts for completing some of the levels but most of the payout is for purchases or gaining/levelling up heroes. There's a chance they might be achievable but they really don't seem worth it and I would avoid them. There aren't many good games left that I haven't done so I was tempted but I won't be doing them.
