Changes to InboxPays and MindsPay :(

For those of you who joined these sites, I wanted to let you know of a recent change they made as of 12/5/2011. I don't recall seeing an email regarding the change in terms so ??

Anyway, it used to be that you could just read the paid emails to reach the $50 payout and get paid (and both sites did pay me). However, they have now changed it to be that you can only earn $25 per payout in paid emails and have to earn the other $25 in offers/surveys, etc. If you reach the $25 in paid emails before you have $25 in offer/survey earnings, additional paid emails are put in a "holding tank" for you for your next payout.

I'm not a fan of doing offers because I have done so many that never credit that it's just frustrating to me. But, since I've already reached the $25 in paid emails prior to this change, it looks like I'm gonna have to suck it up and do some offers to get paid....

So, do any of you know some good freebie email sites that don't require you to fill out a ton of information just to set up the account? That would be helpful in completing these offers as I don't want my regular email totally cluttered up with junk.

It's nice of you to share. I've looked at some of these but refuse to give out too much personal information.

A change like that would assure I'd never get the payout. I don't do offers.

Leaving my comments for LGTKEO December.

I don't like doing offers either. i think this just may loose some people for them.

I also noticed lately I haven't got any videos on Inbox either

I noticed suddenly I am getting emails from inboxpays and I don't recall ever signing up....they have all been offer emails.
I don't like offers---and all of the "free" offers I've already done over the years.
