Date Boycotted: Before 2007 URL: http://www.dollarslove.com
DollarsLove is a paid e-mail program with a $30 sign-up bonus, between 5 and 10 cents per e-mail, and a $500 payout minimum via PayPal or check. At the time of writing the site claims to have over 95,000 members, which would mean that the site is liable for over $2.8 million in sign up bonuses alone! The site also promises six levels of referral bonus and payment within 30 days, though the complaints which follow show this not to be the case.
The first reason that DollarsLove is on the boycott list is simply the non-payment of members. The complaints below detail how members who have reached the minimum payout amount are not being paid according to the site's own Terms of Service. Support e-mails have not been responded to, members have not been paid, and so this program rightly belongs on the boycott list.
The second reason DollarsLove is boycotted is the patent unsustainability of the site. Any site offering to pay such unrealistic sums for reading e-mails is not at all likely to pay its members. GPTBoycott urges its visitors to refer to sustanability principles when deciding which programs to be a member of. To find out more about sustainability, please visit our sustainability area. It should be clear that such business practices warrant a boycott of this site.
Other Sites with the Same Owner
After examining WHOIS records and other sources online, it is believed that the owner of DollarsLove also owns CashRead, another boycotted site.
For the reasons above, and the complaints listed below, DollarsLove has been boycotted!
Name: Guillaume Thibault Date: April 12, 2002 Comments: Even with the 30$ signup-up bonus it's impossible to egt up to 200$!!
Name: Ryan Date: April 14, 2002 Comments: it would take a decade or more to cash out, do the math and observe the # of emails recieved and how little they pay or each. Its sister program (same owners) CashRead are even worse--you can't even cash out for ads. Their customer service sucks as well.
Name: Bonnie Benford Date: May 21, 2002 Comments: When I first signed on with dollars love I was very excited as their ad seemed to say 10 cents per e-mail, but I soon found it was .10 cents. Now I see many of the programs word the tenths of cents in that misleading way.
I call that trickery.
Name: Phyllis Gillette Date: July 16, 2002 Comments: I joined this paid-to-read email program when it launched. They "inadvertently" deleted my account after doubling thei $30 sign-up bonus. After contacting them about the problem, the admited it was their mistake & for me to sign up again, after which they would reinstate my past balance. Funny how they're so quick to answer a member's email when there's a problem and try to fix it. However, it's been three weeks of constant emails through their "contact us" button requesting my account be credited with past earnings before the account was deleted. Nada, nothing, not even a response to my inquiries thereafter. I believe that Dollars Love is the same webmaster/owner of CashRead, which is so wholeheartedly promoted for boycott on your site. Please check into that connection because I believe Dollars Love is another scam by the same people. Thank you.

Name: Niels Madsen Date: September 2, 2002 Comments: I have been a member too, i unsubscribed of course, you cant reach 200$, however on cashread i redeemed for ads and they gave the ad to me(unfortunately it was for promoting nitroclicks hehe)
Name: BigMoney Date: September 2, 2002 Comments: CashRead and DollarsLove are good programs - If you want to advertise your site or beter GetPaidTo company.
Name: Illary Date: September 9, 2002 Comments: They really send 10 cents email, not .10 cents. You can just see that checking your account.
I redeemed with them and with cashread too, and got a great response.
Actually I was able to redeem in less than one month.
No other program gave me this so quickly.
Name: cliff Date: September 17, 2002 Comments: Dollarslove is only to be used for advertising one time. I have had great response for the one time advertising, so I cant say anything bad about this one.
Name: christina Date: September 19, 2002 Comments: I am a member of both programs, dollarslove and cashread, I agree the payouts are quite unreal, but DollarsLove is more realistic than CashRead. I had a problem with my account getting suspended at CashRead for having cheaters with multiple accounts in my downline. I reopened a new account and they credited my account with all my 600 something referrals and gave me $30 extra in my account for the trouble. They are good webmasters. Their advertising gets great response!
Name: GUINTER9 Date: October 14, 2002 Comments: I am a member of both DollarsLove and CashRead. DollarsLove now sends emails for 12 cents. but not everyday.
I maid a log for my CashRead account and they send about 25cents a day. but still that would take about 6 years to reach payout
Name: prfaulkner Date: November 8, 2002 Comments: As a member of both these programs I know that they send emails with mutiple links each worth . something of a cent. By the time you click each link you have made something at least close to they're promised amount. As far as the signup bonus, All of you who signup, participate for a short time then quit. Build the moneys to pay people like me our due.
Name: Vilda Whynot Date: December 8, 2002 Comments: I am a member of Dollarslove and I am quite sure I will never reach payout. However, I cash in my earnings for ads so whether I reach payout or not I am still getting something out of the program.
Name: Marc Date: December 16, 2002 Comments: Let me tell you about both Cash Read and Dollars Love
They state their membership is in the 10's of thousands.
Here's why:
1. Their database has thousands of false accounts created by a bot that originated in China and Brazil
2. Their database is full of dead accounts, inactives and so on. They never maintain their database despite stating they do. Proof? I have kept my membership since the start but NEVER support their advertisers. I have been inactive since the start!
3. The owner is a liar and a cheat who changes the program to suit his/her own needs. I asked for advertising a while back as the redeem section displayed a button for $30 cash advertising. My redemption was never honoured and a reply from the owner stated I needed $60 in my account in order to get $30 advertising. Then I check and the FAQ had been changed to suit.
In summary - even if you redeem for advertising your ad will not reach anywhere near the boasted membership level - estimates say that the membership is in fact less thatn 3000 active members!!
These 2 programs are a complete waste of time and are scams
Name: R.Narasimhan Date: November 4, 2006 Comments: Dollars love runs another site side by side mostly & many times interchange GPTR clicks.When I had reached nera Pay out my getting paid e mails stopped.That is one of the clever ways. The owners should be traced & jailed first as it is not as though they make the money from ads.
Name: Brian Date: December 23, 2002 Comments: Although the min payout is probs beyond anyone without a MASSIVE downline, you could always use the site for advertising.
I done this once I reached $40 (included $30 sign-up bonus). I put out an advert to 4,000 users, the advert was for ItPaysToLearn (a very old program at the time) and to my surprise, I actually got myself over 50 sign-ups :).
So don't scrap your account with them, as getting that extra $10 (to go with the $30 sign-up bonus) is pretty easy. seeing as though they send out at least 12 cents of links a day!
I'm actually halfway to another $40 advert, so I keep clicking!
And nearly all of this has been personal earnings, as although I have several referrals, they don't seem to be very active!
Scam or not? Well I've seen much worse programs, put it that way!
Name: monia Date: January 10, 2003 Comments: I also think Dollarslove.com is a scam. It is impossible to reach that amount in several years.
Now I have around 55 dollars and I will spend them on advertising.
But, which program to advertise? How to be sure that the program has not be a scam.
Has anyone any knowledge about Logicbucks.com? They simply took away my 3 dollars from the shares I had, and even yesterday those 3 dollars were in my account. Today they are gone..so each share is now 1 cent instead of 3 cents. Please let me know from your experience if they are scam too.
Name: Dollarshate Date: June 1, 2003 Comments: Dollarslove used to offer us the option to transfer our credits into advertising (paid to read, banner etc).
I submitted once and i got a reply from them to send my ad. I sent my ad to them but it was not advertised. I know because i used a tracker.
Right now, they removed that option. I even emailed them and they do not reply.
Anyway, i just delete off their email when i receive it.
Rgds,
Dollarshate
Name: uri Date: August 9, 2003 Comments: i m a member of dollars love and was a member of cash read but not anymore.
dollars love does sent emails worth 12 cents each but only about 1 a day.
i saw people said they redeemed earnings for advertising but i dont see such option in dollars love.
can someone tell me how i redeem please
Name: maria Date: September 15, 2003 Comments: Dollarslove offers the option to redeem to advertise when we have $40. After several $0.10 emails(only searches), I finally had the amount required. I submitted my ad on 4 Jully and still waiting.I posted a contact on 12 Jully asking for my ad and later August i had my answer: I have to wait, they have so many ads to process... I'm just waiting to advertise before unsusbscribe because it's painful to loose all my clickings. But I must confess I feel strange about all that hard work processing ads (if you go to the site, you only see a few ones...).

i have been in both sites sence day i got in to paid to reads dec 19th 2002------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: maria Date: September 26, 2003 Comments: after almost 3 months I still waiting for my advertising to go out! But they sent emails (search emails) in a regular basis, about 2 per week. I'm a member of other sites and none of them needs 3 months to sort an advertising.
Name: Chrystina Date: October 1, 2003 Comments: I have only one e-mail box for all my get-paid-to read emails. I get so many ads from them all, I do not know who sends which ones...without reading the sender's name. I know I am a member of Dollarslove, and Cashreed, and also zwallet. I have not received any money yet...but, I have only started these programs about 1 month ago. Someday, I should be rich...at least rich with Mexico Pesos, right? Well, none are paying in Euro, or hardly any US Dollars, anymore! Please tell me if you find any that really pay. I enjoy the ads, at least in only 1 email box. I recieve all regular wanted mail in other e-mail boxes. Best Wishes to other surfers,email readers, ptc and other programs you all belong to. May we all become millionares, someday. Who cares if it is only payment in Mexican Peso, or equal. I may visit there someday. Then I really will be rich.
Name: Southpaw Date: February 1, 2004 Comments: Dollarslove is such a scam. When I got up to 200 dollars, I clicked to redeem, and haven't seen a penny of it for 6 months. So I decided to email them about it, and they took me off their list. WHAT A BUNCH OF PHONEYS!
Name: Gerd Date: February 5, 2004 Comments: I don't know why everyone is stating the $200 to be impossible to achieve. I've been a member for almost 2 years and have already obtained the amount of $107 without a single referral. Not only are the emails worth 18c at the moment, with their PTC you can double this amount daily!
Name: Corina Date: February 21, 2004 Comments: I had four days ago 10 $ gon from my DollarsLove account from a day to another. I asked the wm what is happening, but she didn't answer till now
Name: Kimberly Date: March 6, 2004 Comments: I have been clicking with Dollars Love for a long time. I finally reached the point where I could get some advertising. I have submitted that request 3 times and have not heard a reply from. I have contacted them twice by e-mail also. Is there anything that can be done? What a waste of time!
Name: Angela Date: May 12, 2004 Comments: I was a member of Dollars Love for some time, but soon realised I'd never see any money any time soon. I run my own paid to read program and can't understand why member loyalty isn't a priority! Members make the program...who's going to refer new members to a program that can't look after the ones they have already? Reputation is everything in the internet...once you have a bad one, there's only one way to go!
Name: ST Date: November 21, 2004 Comments: I've just been paid by dollarslove. Though they don't send emails, you can still reach payout by going to the PTC section. I earn from them by clicking everday in their PTC. They do reply to my emails regarding payout & paid me on time.

Memo: DollarsLove payout - Thanks for your great work!
Name: Roxy Date: November 30, 2004 Comments: I have been a member for 3 or 4 years. After about a year my account "was lost somehow". After several months of trying to get a reply from DollarsLove, my account was finally put back in service, with $20 for my year of clicking emails. Then this past June, I stopped receiving any emails whatsoever. Around August I started using the "Contact Us" link to try and find out why I wasn't receiving any emails. After doing this about 6 or 8 times, finally got a reply that they have vacation during summer, and emails will be less. Well, this was the first summer that had ever happened to me. Course, at this point, I am getting closer to $200. In September, I emailed at least once a week, asking why I wasn't receiving emails. Response was "why don't you quit complaining and promote the site". About a week later I finally received an email. That is the only one I have received in 6 months. Their excuses for this don't even make sense. So, I thought I would try earning by clicking the links from the site. Well, I have done that 3 times now; the first time I got points, the last 2 I have not yet received any points. And, they no longer respond to me, whether through "contact us" or direct email. You can't tell me that they aren't controlling this through the website; which they say there is no way they can. HA!HA!HA! I guess I will just keep waiting, at least until I can no longer log in.
Name: Roxy Date: December 9, 2005 Comments: I am a user of DollarsLove. I posted in November of last year (2005). This is just to let everyone know that it has not changed since my last posting. I have received TWO - that is 2 - emails since my last posting. I have not received ANY return communication from the site during this time, even though I have used the "contact us" form, and email, at least once a month since my last post. I can log into the site, check my balance, etc, use the supposed "click to earn" process, and show that I could get any amount of ads up to the value of my account. Before the emails stopped, I was receving at least one, and up to 3 emails a day, each with 8 to 10 cents worth of clicking. I should have been able to "cash out" the $200 by now, and I have stated that to the owner (with no response). So to anyone who reads this site, I would say to you that DollarsLove is a ripoff. I suspect that every once in a while they actually pay someone; probably someone who has used their money to advertise the DollarsLove site, just so somebody, somewhere, will say something good about the site. But there are just TOO MANY bad postings here that say different. So I recommend to everyone, don't start with them if you are after the money, because you will probably NEVER GET IT!!!!
Name: Antonios Date: September 15, 2007 Comments: Cashread, Dollarlove and Richmails is the same thing with different names or modified programs.
Made $650.00 with Richmails with referrals, but could never cash it.
Emails were never answered.
Name: becky Date: November 12, 2007 Comments: Conveniently, the payout on this program has now been raised to $500. I tried to request an ad redemption over 2 years ago... sent many follow-up emails... no luck. $130 I'll never get to see.
