Another paid-2-read program with an extremely high minimum payout ($500 as far as I renember). They have great referral bonuses but you will receive no referral money until they cash-out. Accumulating $500 without the help of refferals would take many years. Same sh*t as in Cashread, GreenHurricane, Read2BeRich and other paid-2-read programs with a high minimum payout. In my opinion if a paid-2-read program has a minimum payout highet then $50 it's definately a scam.

[Keith]

Looks like they are trying to change. Because i just went to the site and the minium to cash out is $50 and they have referral % now. :)

Keith

[Przemek]

yup, it seems that they've changed their policies, but I renember the time when they were acting like scams, so I wouldn't trust them anyway

[funkymotha]

I just had a weird experience with them and I don't know what to make of it..... take a look here and please let me know what you think (btw I have about $10 in my stats)

[Przemek]

looks like they have a great excuse for blocking accounts

[earners]

I have posted many times on many forums regarding these Jumbolina sites.

There are about 10 now (Mydux, Jumbolina, Dumbolina.....), all owned by the same person. This person is simply re-designing the html in the scripts and making a new program.

If you look carefully through their forums you will find where they tell you how to cheat the search engines by refreshing the pages so you can earn lots!.

In fact the owner of all this group is the only one making money as up to now the few that have reached the $50 minimum have either been accused of cheating or simply had their account cancelled and not been paid.

They also take the $5 sign up bonus away if you do not earn the minimum for the month, have a good read through their terms!

The whole group should be boycotted.

Marc

[funkymotha]

eeeeeeeeek oh dear :(

Is it definately the same owner?

[Przemek]

I think they should be boycotted. A typical scam company that will use every possible excuse to block your account when you get near to the payout minimum. I even renember the time when they had $500 payout minimum and no refferal comissions until refferals earn $500 by themself, but I've mentioned that before.

All run by the same person - The bottom one is Dumbolina but note the email address is the same.

Have a look on a who-is for the following:

http://www.nicelittleearners.co.uk/cgi-bin/whois/acewhois.cgi

jumbolina.com
mydux.com
emailhurricane.com
mailthunder.com
mailtornado.com
onlinepaynet.com

There are a few more which I can't remember but you'll see it's the same person

Now have a read of their terms: http://www.jumbolina.com/terms.htm

Note the bit that says:

""We may cancel your participation in the Paid email Program with or without payment at any time for any or no reason. ""

Now that is some get out clause if ever I've seen one.

Marc

[funkymotha]

yup well it shows...... us newbie's can be conned into anything without reading the terms.

THAT will teach me a lesson ...... the weird thing is, the owner gave me a list of words to use too :o( now I'm banned because I used them ..... dam'd con artists I reckon.

[Hector316]

Their program suddenly turned into a search engine and no one can access their account.

I better remove these scammers off my site quick!

[Przemek]

Keith? Rob? Shoudn't they be added to the boycott list?

[Keith]

Umm.. we are converting our scripts to php and at this time cant really do much to the site. I should be done soon. I will work on adding programs to the boycott list next. Should be ready by umm.. friday.

Keith

[Hector316]

I found out they were updating their scripts and they have a new integrated search engine.

I was able to access my account through my referral id.

Everything crediting fine now.

[NetDough]

Heh, those were among the first to go when I started getting delete happy. All of them and I even had great downlines in a few but they seemed to be inactive for the most part.

None of them, mydux, dumbolina, etc. are worth it IMO. Best to get out while you can and focus your efforts on the better paid to reads.

[DAzHiredGun]

Thanks folks - Jumbolina is now history with me, too.

ron

[funkymotha]

well I am now banned, they did it without explanation. the forum that I posted on is still unanswered and someone else has the same complaint but they actually had reached payout and are awaiting payment.

I think they are all owned by the same person but they have managers that look after the admin members etc.

Netcox.com is managed by Alan and he is very helpful.

But I am still wary because of my experience with Jumbolina.

[Keith]

You have been banned from the forum, or from your account?

I would be willing to add them to the boycott list if i can get more info, like more people loosing their accounts for no reason, not getting paid, etc..

Keith

[funkymotha]

No not blocked at the forum but banned from searching!!!

I do not have an account with Jumbolina anymore they deleted it.

I am a member of more than one of their sites and they have now blocked me from them all !!!!!!!

why cos I cried scam???!!!!!

Alan at netcox just told me and as I haven't 'spammed' at netcox he's trying to persuade them to allow me to keep just that one account.

Whats the point tho?

I'm only staying cos Alan is trying to help.

guess this is how they get their money

sounds good thought don't it .... set up a portal with a search box start offering $50 per referral signup, let people spend hours searching then say awwwww sorrry but you spammed ... now bog off while I go on hols to the Bahamas on your money :D

[funkymotha]

ok update

I am unblocked at netcox only

I have to delete all others ( in total about $30 worth of searches + referrals)

and I am NOT allowed to signup with any more that have that kind of signup page or I will lose it all.

ok I'll stick with netcox cos he seems to care about his members .... can't say that for the other lot tho.

[Taff]

I'm saying nofink :laugh:

You can't blame me I didn't sign up under
you for any of those :baaa:

[funkymotha]

ROFLMAO!!!!

[rachelo]

I just recently signed up with Jumbolina..now I'm hearing these things:(. I don't know whether to stay or not. I do know they don't have a FAQ so you can check things out. I didn't even know what their payout was. I think I jumped in to fast on this one.

Hi!

I am the manager of cymicom which is a sister site of jumbolina. Before I was manager of cymicom I was a member of jumbolina. And as far as I know jumbolina has never had a $500 payout, it has always been $50. I feel very insulted for Funkymotha saying that Alan from Netcox is the only manager willing to help his members. I will help any of my members if they would ask. Instead I have members of jumbolina, Mail tornado,dumbolina and even Netcox that come to me for answers. And I do my best to answer them. I am the same Sandra that was always in the jumbolina Forum answering people. Right now they are working on new scripts and when the new scripts are up all the money you have earned at all of the programs will be put into one account. and you will get a choice of which one you want to stay with. The reason for this is when the new scripts are up all the programs will offer a $50 signup bonus which you will get once you reach the $50 payout with your own activity. and they will all offer $10 per referral once your referral makes $10 with their own activity. And they won't decrease like they once did at jumbolina. If it takes you 6 months to make $50 with your own clicks you will still receive the Bonus. Cymicom and Netcox already offer these.
The people that are being deleted are either spammers meaning they use the same word more than once in a 24 hour period. Or They are using scripts or software to do their searching . And that isn't fair to the advertisers. This man does pay people when they are honest. These are the easiest programs that I have found to earn money online if you like to search. I have made $120 so far this month and that is with just my own clicking. Yes I search to. I just had to get my 2 cents in. I hope this didn't sound mean or anything because I didn't intend for it to be.

[rachelo]

Thanks Sandy for clearing up some things. I'll stick with Jumbolina for now. You make it sound alright.

I never said Alan was the ONLY one. It was never intended to insult anyone. I was talking about Jumbolina.

I will help any of my members if they would ask.

How do these members KNOW they need help? I didn't KNOW I had done anything wrong until I was blocked. You answered me at the forum the first time I posted and was very helpful but my last post is STILL there unanswered.

ok

I have spoken to Alan and he has offered to talk about any concerns we have with ALL of them Jumbo Dumbo xq6h the lot.

aaaaargh i dunno if I can put his forum url here .... help!! lol

ah well pm me if ya need it :p

He even explained why some people might not be getting paid... you need $50 in your account of your OWN click thru's (so thats minus ref's percentages) some may not know that.

[rachelo]

I would sure like to know how someone could make $120 on this site. I mean, how often can you search? If they only had a FAQ so you could find out more! I have just been searching once a day when they send me the e-mail. I just want to know all the rules and such.

$50 of your own click throughs in order to cash out? That is ridiculous!

I am glad I quit those now and frankly I will never join another site similarly designed to those ones.

Now knowing you need to get $50 in your own clicks before cash out they are all going on my warning don't join list.

[rachelo]

Which is exactly what I was talking about. They don't have anyway of learning more about their site. Yeah, I know they have the forum, but most all sites have a place you can see all the rules for it. And $50 is just too high a payout. Most all sites have dropped their payout. TigerClick is at $4 and OneDollarMail at $17 and SendMoreInfo at $10. All of these I have gotten money from with no problem.

funkymotha,
HI!
I'm Sorry there was a post that wasn't answered . But I can't answer all posts at jumbolina because I don't have access to all the info there. I'm just a regular person that started out at jumbolina searching like everyone else and I guess because I was always answering people there when I could, he offered me a job helping him rewrite things so they were understandable . Then he offered me a job being manager of cymicom on top of the other. So I don't check jumbolina forum as much as I used to. But I do still check it once in awhile and answer when I can. I'm sorry that I didn't answer your post. Alan is a very nice guy and I know he will help you out whenever he can. It just sounded like you were saying that Alan was the only one that would help and I'm sorry I misunderstood you.

Sandra

[funkymotha]

No problem guess we both have our wires crossed.

Rachel you can search more than once a day but you must disconnect before trying to search again. Every time you click on your link you will get a different search engine. You may click I think it's 15 links with one ISP and in no more within one hour. So you could search twice in the same search engine but click no more than the top 7 to be safe. (2 x top 7 14 clicks). Try not to use the same word more than once (thats how I got banned from Jumbo) and try not to use alot of high bidded words.

OMG sounds like I'm trying to defend them now lol

[rachelo]

Thanks for the info funkymotha. I will try that.
Rachel
