Date Boycotted: 08-11-2007 URL: http://www.holiday-mails.com

Holiday-Mails is a paid e-mail program offering $200 e-mails, a $200 referral bonus and a signup bonus of $2000. This should be enough to set alarm bells ringing in the ears of most experienced "get paid" members. However, the site still manages to boast over 9,000 members at the time of writing. The site is a prime example of an unsustainable and unrealistic site, which has no intention of paying its members. The first reason this site is boycotted is therefore because it is wildly unsustainable.

The second reason this site is boycotted is because it has a consistent track record of trying to fool its members by improperly displaying "award" images on its site. As the complaints below detail, Holiday-Mails was until recently displaying the BeenPaid Seal of Approval award illegally and without permission. Now, the site displays a "certificat" [sic] which is designed to convey the impression that Holiday-Mails is a paying site. It is clear that this site does not and will not pay its members, and so this program right belongs on the boycott list!

For the reasons above, and the complaints listed below, Holiday-Mails has been boycotted!
