Date Boycotted: 25-02-2008 URL: http://www.ptr-trading.com

PTR-Trading is a paid e-mail site offering a signup bonus of $6000, e-mails worth $600 and a $1000 minimum payout. The site's Terms state that payments will be made "within 30-90 days or a reasonable time after", though the complaints which follow show this not to be the case.

The first reason that PTR-Trading 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 PTR-Trading 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 any program which offers to sell a $600 paid e-mail to over 8,000 members for just $2.00 must have no intention of paying its members. It should also be clear that such business practices warrant a boycott of this site.

For the reasons above, and the complaints listed below, PTR-Trading has been boycotted!

Comments: I am an free user at PTR-Trading.com from a long time you can say approx 2 years. I have request payout as free member multiple times but till date not a single penny is released. I am adding my current screen shot for those who are making their mind to join ptr and other ptr owned websites. I have a list of all sites which are somewhere related to the ptr owner. I have contacted them 100's of times in regard to the same but no response. Now its your time to think whether to join these programs or not.

Comments: I clicked away & read emails for a couple of months, figuring it was probably a scam, but what the heck. So I got my account up to $91,500. They say it costs $90,000 to cash out, and that $1,500 would be deposited in my PayPal account. The $90,000 was removed from my account there, but no deposit so far. I doubt one will come. And that's my story, have a nice day.
