SideTick.com Scam
Hello people i will keep this post short and to the point. I admit to anyone reading this I have an obsession with joining free programs that can make me money. Reason being is because it’s easier to recommend it to people. Also by recommending it to people it also encourages other webmasters who want to start up a similar web based business to do it the honest way. Yes i am a dreamer i dream of the internet being rid of scams but who am i kidding right everyone wants “to get rich quick”.
First of all i am not going to call SideTick a scam but the better question to anyone joining or thinking of joining is how do you like your money? Cash? credit card? or points? Personally i prefer cash, I hate using credit cards unless i have to or unless they are cash back credit cards. Anyway enough about me I think before signing up for SideTick you should read the terms and conditions. The terms and conditions of sidetick can be found at the bottom of their page.
by clicking terms and conditions but i would only like to show you why i choose not to join please do not let my opinion stop you from joining sidetick.com they may have a perfect program for you I am only telling you why i am not joining. I am a money guy whenever i sign up for anything it’s because they are going to pay me cash USD currency, EURO’s pounds or Canadian dollars, I’ll even take a swiss franc lol. Now the portion of their terms below is what caused me not to sign up the time in which i am writing this post is August 2010 so depending on when this reaches you the terms might have change this can be found on number 29 of their terms.
============
29. TICKBUCKS AND PRIZES
Tickbuck points may be given, at the sole and absolute discretion of SideTick for any reason including your personal participation in a variety of uses of the site, for example, your posting a comment on an existing blog may earn you Tickbuck points as may joining a SideTick community. SideTick reserves the absolute right to modify the Tickbuck points program or to terminate the program altogether at any time for any or no reason.
When you have earned a good number of Tickbuck points, you may submit a request for redemption. If granted, you can trade your Tickbuck points for a prize(s). The prize can take the form of a pre-paid Visa card which is as good as cash in your pocket.
As of February 24, 2010, we will not be able to redeem Tickbucks after today from countries other than the following: United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Israel. Sidetick members from countries other than those listed above, however, can earn points redeemable for a prize for obtaining U.S. friends.
You are encouraged to join the SideTick group called Foreigners Making Money where open discussions have an available forum to discuss how people from all countries can make money on Sidetick. We do not issue Tickbuck points for referrals or new sign-ups that fall outside of the five above mentioned countries, measured by placement of the referred IP address.
======================
Sidetick is not a bad program nor is it a scam in my opinion but it’s also not worth my time if you signed up and you like it I wish you all the best and much success.
If you are looking for alternative more traditional ways to make money from home consider reading a post i made called Work From Home
Please leave your comments or your REAL experience with sidetick.com below.
Yuwie.com is the Scam not sidetick
SideTick is a scam. They paid me and my down-line of 6 people only twice. Then the payments stopped and excuses flowed. When we pushed the issue, our accounts were all deleted. They have “no record” of us ever joining SideTick and saved themselves over a grand in payments. Don’t was your time.
I enjoyed reading this, however, I wish it had been on another online money making site, redgage.com. I would like to hear your imput on that site. I have been a member there for over a year now, and for as long as I have been there, there have been ongoing money issues. Making money is not the problem, if you know how to tweet, you can make good money. The problem is, redgage tire your earnings up in what is called PENDING. After I made my first $100, it was tied up in pending for over two months. I finally was paid, but who wants to wait two months when your due it now? Now I am trying to get $50 they owe me, but again, its stuck in pending, over a month now. For as long as I have been a member, over a year, they keep saying they are sorry, the money problems are all Visa’s fault, not redgages. Finally one brave member whose funds were hung up in pending for some time picked up the phone and talked to visa about why they were holding up his money. To no surprise, visa told him they were not to blame, the money problems were on redgage end. No surprise, when this member posted this on his wall, redgage staff came down hard on him, stateing pretty much he had no business contacting visa in the first place, the visa rep he spoke to didn’t know what she was talking about, and the ongoing money issues were in fact on visa’s end. I am still a member and earning good money, I just wish redgage would pay up so I could spend what I earn.
I will look into redgage.com
terry is right Sidetick is not a scam. i’ve been paid for the 3rd time since i signed up. when i signed up it’s 10thou+members and now we are over 60thou+members and it keeps growing everyday.
Terry is wrong once a site that paid now dead with no payment or way to make money
David is right, as of March 17th they are no longer paying for the many things they were paying for. They blame scammers that were on there. All they had to do was get rid of them,but they decided to punish all the members.
I was almost at $50 and I can only claim $25, I requested that about a month ago and have not gotten anything yet. It is still pending. They say they have to check your Tickbucks. I guess they count very slowly!!!!!!
I am very disappointed with them. It’s not worth your time, I no longer trust them.
Sidetick is not a scam. This is a social network wherein you can get paid to be social i’ve been with sidetick since last year and got paid four times already. Sidetick is fun!
The is a complete scam run by a pornographer. Ask his Rabbi. Shame on you Jeff.
Sidetick is a scam I Had my account deleted when I Ask for payment . All My Referrals can be contacted but their is no one who cares to do so. They just call you a cheater so they don’t have to pay you .
Sidetick.tv is a scam they told me I would have 7-10 days trial period before my account was debited and they debited my account 2 days in the trial period plus I have not even had a chance to review their services not give an passcode or password to use in my email as they also promised. THIS IS A SCAM do not trust this service… I gave my debit card over the phone but my bank was able to cancel this debit card so no more changes will be charge to my account and i also filled out an affidavit with the bank against the company to have my $5.99 put back in my account the bank will do an investigate against this charge and they will not have proof of this charge to my account because I have copies of all the correspondence with the company over email telling them to cancel this service ASAP, and they would not respond to my emails nor do they respond to phone calls by having a message on the phone stating you need to contact them by email. DO NOT far prey to this SCAM… I will also contact my local Better Business Bureau about Sidetick.tv… BE AWARE~
