REVIEWSTREAM SCAM ?

Inevitably, the time comes when you wonder whether any of the sites that say that you can make money on the internet are actually telling you the truth. I found out last year what the true position was when I needed to make some extra funds after my business dried up. I spent days and days searching to find out how to get some extra cash generated. I paid for various ‘ebooks’ on how to make money and, of course, paid surveys came up. In fact, they came up again and again.
I decided that my future was to aim at making about $100 a day. That would keep body and soul together. I might even have the odd beer to celebrate. I signed up and found that most of the ‘paid’ surveys were nothing of the sort. Oops! Big miscalculation. Most of them offered me the chance of being put into some raffle that I might, but probably wouldn’t win. Those that claimed to offer any real money were all in the States and the rest said they paid a few dollars, but I never found out how to get this theoretical money.
I was tearing my hair out by this time when I stumbled upon www.reviewstream.com, which is where you are reading this. To my surprise, having written a number of reviews, I thought I would see if they really and truly did pay out the money I had built up. I asked for it and, to my immense delight, I had it paid promptly through PayPal!
To many people, the internet is a place fraught with danger. People sell you things and disappear, or they give guarantees which prove to be worthless. One such scheme recently defrauded me of nearly £40 for a worthless book on ways to earn money working from home. If I had legal secretarial experience, or happened to be a medical secretary (in the US), it might have been value for money. In fact, it was a rip-off, but how do you know these things until you have tried them out?
Make no mistake. Writing for Review Stream is not a cake-walk. Writing reviews isn’t just a matter of a couple of sentences. Review Stream has a panel which reads the material you provide to decide whether it is a review or not. If it doesn’t tell the reader something useful about the product or service you are reviewing, it may not be accepted. If it isn’t sufficiently exhaustive or informative, they may just pay a bulk rate of .50c. If it’s good, they will pay $2.50, so it can be a remunerative exercise.
The bottom line is that the service on offer is one which has demands. If you don’t meet those demands, then you don’t make money. You have to have produced enough submissions to have earned $50.00 before you get paid. That’s just the way it works. However, if you don’t write something to quite the level they want, they may make suggestions to you about what they think your submission lacks and you have the chance of doing it again. Alternatively, the y may just say that it isn’t of interest. Starting off is, like so many other things, a learning curve. My first submission was turned down. I soon saw what was acceptable by looking at the other articles that they display on their site. Yes! You can see exactly what other people have written to make money. If you can emulate them, then so can you. There are hundreds to choose from.
This is a genuine opportunity. If you have no other way of making an income and you can write reviews of things that people want to read (and there are so many headings under which you can write), then you will get paid. You may not make a fortune, but you will be able to keep the wolf from the door. Also, it is a good way of measuring your own potential as a writer. If people are prepared to pay you for the words you write, then maybe you have something worthwhile to say!
This is a straightforward business proposition and should be taken as such. Just as a writer of newspaper comment is a professional who is paid for his or her opinion (and the way they have written it), you too can judge your own worth by whether or not you sell your submissions to Review Stream or not. It’s a service that costs you nothing at any time. You just create an account and submit your written works. Within a day or two, you will be able to check whether you have sold your review or not. Remember; there is a demand for a particular service here. It is one that you can, in all probability, furnish. It is one involving writing in English in something resembling a grammatical manner, with spelling that conforms to the norms of your type of English (either UK or US spelling are accepted). You can write about a product you have bought, a service you have used, an airline you have flown with, a car you have driven and so on. If your offerings are accepted, you have a sale. It is a good incentive to sit down at your keyboard and make some money.

I love writing for review stream. I know that there are tons of reviews about this website and a lot of them claim that review stream is a scam but I am writing to tell you this, review stream is not a scam at all. I have actually just recently got paid by them and they are quick to pay!
At first it is a little unsettling seeing that there is no login process but you know what I love it now because it makes writing my reviews so much easier and I love not logging into anything! It truly is amazing that they do this because I think it benefits everybody and makes it a lot easier for us all.
I love writing reviews for review stream because they mean it when they say that you can review anything! I have had very few reviews get rejected. If my reviews were rejected it was because they weren’t specific enough or they were not interested in it but usually it was because they weren’t specific enough but that rarely happens. I love how I can write about any little thing that I have used from laundry detergent all the way to cars and much more, this website is truly amazing and it is by far no scam at all. This site is legit and they do pay, the majority of people who are bashing review stream are mad because they want to make thousands of dollars writing reviews but that is ridicules! You can make decent money writing reviews for review stream and I highly recommend that you use this website and write some of your own reviews.
The payout threshold is $50 and this seems like a lot but you can certainly reach this amount and it is not an unreachable amount to reach. I love review stream and so will you so come and give it a shot.

I discovered Reviewstream doing an internet search, I had heard there were some sites out there that reward you for expressing your opinions and Reviewstream does just that.
I haven't been writing for Reviewstream very long but in the short time I have been here I am very happy with the service.
Firstly they pay more than a lot of other sites do. Secondly it's nice to be rewarded to telling people about how I feel on certain topics and products.
At the moment I'm very happy with the 200 word limit as it's just enough to let a reader know how good or bad something is without cluttering it with a lot of flowery language.
Another positive of the site is that they pay via paypal and this means you don't have to wait a month for a check in the mail.
A also love the simplicity of the website. It's very easy to navigate and isn't cluttered with a lot of junk.
I'm finding Reviewstream a wonderful way to do what I love which is expressing my opinion and getting paid for it. There are lots of other money making sites out there but none as easy to use as Reviewstream in my opinion.

Reviews by Urban Beaute

I am a member on several sites that pay you to do just about everything, from reading ads to surveying webpages. I love ReviewStream.com. This is the first site that lets me write my own opinion instead of having to make my opinion full of technical junk I would never really say. I like how I can log in and see when my reviews are set to be reviewed and approved, and I love how easy the site is to use. I have found that 200 words is the perfect amount for each review, and when I go through reading the reviews they are relevent to the topic instead of having a lot of added garbage just to fill in the extra words. My biggest problem with other review sites is that they don't seem to be people's actual opinions. Everywhere I look on ReviewStream.com they state that they only want reviews in your own opinion. ReviewStream is definitely the place to be and I plan on telling all of my friends. If you are already writing reviews for ReviewStream.com then you know exactly what I'm talking about, but you haven't started writing reviews yet then you should get started.

I've been writing off-and-on for Review Stream for the past several months, and have been happy to have had six of my ten submissions published at the $2.00 rate.

I've also been amazed by the website's hospitality to articles on an incredible variety of subjects. My own range of interests is almost equally broad and, like most people, I enjoy sharing my knowledge, my experience, and--especially--my opinions with others. Being able to do so for Review Stream's global readership is a rare privilege. And being paid for such sharing is, of course, a welcome bonus.

I've enjoyed writing since elementary school, and even then I found the process to be at least as educational for me as its results might be for others. Writing clarifies for me my feelings and my thinking. "How do I know what I think," a famous essayist once asked, "until I see what I say?" When I've enjoyed--or disliked--a movie or a novel or a restaurant dinner, for example, I try to sort out and think-through my reactions. Doing so in writing for Review Stream helps me to clarify and better understand the grounds for my interests and tastes, and to face up to their limitations.

I've long been addicted to watching TV's "Judge Judy," for example. When I began to examine and write out my reasons for that pleasure, I came gradually to realize that it is her lively "acting" skill that I relish as much as her penetrating intellect and barbed wit. On a few occasions I've even turned off the TV sound so that I could savor undistracted her eloquent body language: the karate-chop hand gestures with which she underscores a point, the expressively raised or lowered eyebrows that dramatize her reactions to a litigant's testimony, and the seeming x-ray vision with which she peers over and down her spectacles and into the hidden motives of the parties who appear in her court. All of those dramatically expressive gestures ought to earn Judge Judy a "Best Actress" Emmy nomination!

Review Stream has also introduced me to some very knowledgeable and lively writers. Among the top reviewers listed on the RS homepage, three of my favorites are "tfredge," whose broadly informed and richly detailed reviews of movies from 1930's classics to this year's Oscar candidates add up in themselves to a superior course in film history. "Orrymain" specializes in reviews of TV series, and she seems to have watched and absorbed them all! Her pithy plot summaries and pointed judgements refresh my happy memories of many episodes I've seen, and pique my curiosity about the many others that I haven't. "Amandafishy" reports on hotels and campsites in every quarter of our country. She and I have stayed on separate occasions at a number of the same places, from Georgia to New Mexico to British Columbia. I enjoy comparing her shrewd impressions with my own, and to remembering her travel recommendations--and warnings--when I plan my next vacation. I've come to think of those distant confidants as invisible guides, and as friends.

So: Viva Review Stream! I hope that I can someday earn my way to membership on the Website's "top reviewer" team!

I'm sure most of you know how reviewstream works, as that is where you happen to be reading this review, but I like many others, would like to help confirm for you potential reviewstream.com writers that this site is completely legit, as clear and simple as it seems, and delivers quick payouts as soon as you reach that $50 milestone. I am actually posting this review shortly after receiving my first payout.

The first great thing about how this site functions is the simplicity. The lack of an account that requires a login via password etc. can be a bit of a hassle, and is how most other sites of this nature seem to function. But reviestream has done us the favor of simply clicking the write review button, and just entering our email and bam, as soon as its posted you will be taken to your control panel page where you can see your account total, pending reviews, recently posted etc.

The next great thing, although I'm sure you've heard and reviewstream makes quite clear, is that you are able to post a review on anything you would like, so long as you are specific and go into moderate detail. This is nice for me, as basically anything I use day to day around the house, no matter how minor an object, can be reviewed. This is also nice when it comes to reviewing certain electronic devices. I often take part in producing my own electronic circuits,robots, or whatever, and the various parts that I use, whether it be a small electric motor or microcontroller, can be reviewed in detail and posted on this website. This also makes reviewstream special to each individual reader, as you are able to find reviews are items you will not find anywhere else on the world wide web, and that's special.

The last thing I have enjoyed so far is how hastily the payouts are delivered. This really took me by surprise. I finished my review to hit that satisfying $50 mark, and immediately afterward requested a payout from reviewstream. This took place on a Saturday. Then 15 minutes later I come back from a snack, take a seat, and the money has already been transferred to my paypal. 15 minutes and on a Saturday! This has to be one of the quickest payout systems online! Very impressive, Review Stream.

Another nice thing I have noticed here is that after you write and post a certain number of reviews that are accepted here, review stream begins to automatically accept and credit your account for posted reviews. This is nice because your account total is updated immediately, but this does not mean that your reviews are not looked over. They are immediately accepted as some form of trust it seems, but if you post a less then adequate review Review Stream can warn you or tell you to repost a better review. This is great though because immediate updates are always nice, and its also nice to know you've gained reviewstreams trust as a good reviewer.

So far I have enjoyed my team here, both reading the reviews of others, and posting my own. If you are considering writing here I'd suggest you go write ahead(pun intended), and that your time here will be well placed and well rewarded.

ReviewStream is a wonderful site for people who loves to write. Actually, everybody can write.. and since ReviewStream pays you for reviewing anything worth reviewing – could be a brand of perfume, bags, the hotel you recently visited, the place where you last dined, your shampoo, music, car, electronic gadgets, and almost anything – that doesn’t discount anybody from joining the site since everybody have used different sorts of products in their entire life and had visited numerous places as well. There are no special qualifications and complicated sign up process to join the site, coz they don’t require you to sign-up everytime you open the site. You access everything by just entering your email, and submit your reviews through your penname. No hassles, no complex rules! Just express your views, and they pay you, because your views are actually helping other consumers weigh on certain products from people who have actually tried them, thus, helping them decide!

I was actually a little weary when I started out with the site, and did a little research myself. People have posted bad things on forums about ReviewStream and calling the site a scam. Since I love to write, I juts went on and submitted reviews, and watched as my earnings grew. When I reached the payout, which is 50$, I asked to be paid. I waited for about 30 minutes or so, and must admit about being a little nervous since this is gonna be my first payout, but more on excited... So when I did check my Paypal account, the money was already there! That fast!

You see, ReviewStream is a great site to make money! It is a legitimate site who actually pays their reviewers and appreciates them for the work they have done for the site. People who cannot appreciate the site are those who are lazy and would prefer to do the clicks for several hours, and earn a few cents at the end of the day. I really wonder how so many people would prefer to click on ads, when writing reviews are just a matter of sharing your thoughts about products or ideas, you have personally experienced or tried. It’s not a difficult thing to do.

I am so grateful I came across this site, and would be definitely submitting more reviews! The money they pay you is so worth the time you spend on the site!

Well, this is my first time to make a review to Reviewstream.com. I just want to thank Reviewstream for giving me the oppurtunity to air my side of story to every good and bad encounters that I am having in my daily life. This site is really cool because no other get paid to review site can offer easy navigation, and simple system that Reviewstream is using. I went to Associated Content, Shared Reviews and Ciao but too complicated to understand. But with Reviewstream , what you see is what you get. Make a review and you will be paid. As simple as that. I have to be honest, I am not yet paid by Reviewstream due to the fact that I'm not near yet to the minimum payout. But I'm actually not into that. It maybe a second oppurtunity for me of doing reviews. But for me , the most important is, you have a place where you can shout out, tell the world that this thing is cool, this stuff is not nice, this product or service needs improvement, anything under the sun. I am really proud of being a reviewer in reviewstream and I am looking forward to create more reviews that will help audience to know the real side of a story.Again, thank you Reviewstream. I love this site.

I am a stay at home wife who has been on a very long search on ways to earn thru the world wide web without shedding a single penny. I tried doing the pay to click sites which pays $0.01 per click. It just frustrated me. Once I joined a forum and there I have learned about ReviewStream. I quickly tried it. Since you don’t have to go thru the fuzz-wuzz of signing up, in matter of seconds I was writing my very first review. Sadly, after I clicked the submit button, my review was rejected. I didn’t know what went wrong. I was discouraged and thought that this might be for professional freelance writers and not for ordinary people like me. After a few days, still thinking about ReviewStream, I decided to give it another shot. This time my review is more substantial and is of considerable length. To my surprise, it was not rejected. I got a message that it will be subjected to further review and I have to wait at least 72 hours. So be it, after a couple of days, I was informed that they are buying my review for $2.00. I was ecstatic! It was the very first time that I have ever been paid for writing something. I write another review, and then another and then another. I was pretty much hooked to it. I notice that once you started doing this, it can be pretty addictive. I would sit a few hours a day in my front of my laptop with overflowing thoughts of what to review. I remember the days when I am so much satisfied with a product and I will go on emailing every person on my address book to recommend it. Also the days when I am so frustrated with a service that I got from a hotel or a restaurant, how hard is it to keep it all inside. Those days are gone. Thanks to ReviewStream! After writing 3-5 reviews per day for 9 consecutive days, I reached the payout amount which is $50. I requested payment thru email and I was delighted to see a reply from the administrators of ReviewStreams in just a matter of minutes. How quick can they be! In less than 8 hours, the payment was credited to my paypal account. I continue to write for ReviewSTream and on my 18th day doing that,I am already waiting for my 2nd check from them.

I wonder why other people said that this thing is a scam. In a forum, I had a few exchange of words with another person who said that this thing is not real. I told him that I have been paid. Funny, that he was saying that this is a scam but he hasn’t tried it. He appeared well equipped with knowledge because he have read the FAQ of ReviewStream and he know how it works, he just don’t believe that it is legitimate.

More power to ReviewStream. It is a pleasure writing for you!

Aside from being a full-time mom, I am a writer-athlete by nature. Everyday of my life is spent with taking care of kids, playing tennis, going to the office and accompanying my husband in this journey called life. I hate melodramatics because I am just as real as anyone can see me; simple yet strong personality. I am far from perfect but every time I fall, I always have the courage to stand up and never quit until I recover. People can misjudge me of being strict and at times arrogant, well I'm not-- I'm just being straightforward and honest to people and situations in my surroundings. I am an artist just like everyone else in the family. I have an array of landscapes I made through cross-stitching--one of my favorite past time. I also love to sing (only this skill is not so recognized by many), writing and playing tennis are two of my most treasured skills. If only given the right time and resources, I could have written a book way back when I was still in high school (I started writing plays then). Well when I play tennis, I hit the ball like a man.
When I came across this website, I was so happy and amazed, I never thought that I could be paid with my opinions and observations. Aside from the monetary gain I am getting from ReviewStream, I feel more developed in my writing skills and in my critical thinking compared before when I was not yet writing reviews. I hope that my reviews will be helpful to everyone else in the community, by giving them awareness and enlightenment in purchasing products in the market and assessing situations and events in the surroundings.

Well I guess it's time to say my share for Review Stream.
I forgot how I first came across the site in the first place, since it was a pretty long time ago. I wasn't exactly looking for another way to earn, since I already had my hands full, but I found the idea interesting. You write about anything and you get paid accordingly.
Now I never was the kind of person that could own a blog, live journal or how ever you call it, so my writing subjects where pretty limited, often having difficulties to come across something to write about when I remembered the site. I sticked to purchased goods, or something that was in my mind the moment I opened the site. At first I tried to write constantly, but I'm really not the one to create a topic about anything .
Even if I wrote once every few days or a few weeks, it feels good writing about something just for the sake of it, and getting a symbolic pay for it too. It can really be relaxing having a cup of coffee and just spilling your words about something without care of who's going to see your opinions. Don't be scared if your English is not perfect, mine isn't either. I admit I have my fare share of mistakes in my articles, as many others too. The only requisite is to have a decent grammar and stick to details about your reviewed subject, when they are available at least.
I went slow and dandy, I gave my cut of reviews, some got paid in full, some in bulk, and the only one that got rejected was when I got mad at Insurance Companies, making more of a hate-letter instead of an actual review. I reached the paying barrier, with it ending my time here for a while, having traveling ahead of me soon.
For anyone who is reading this, I'm sure I will get paid and I guarantee 100% that ReviewStream.com is not a scam. You will get both full review & bulk pay for your reviews, depending on the current interests of visitors.
You can make this a casual hobby as I did. I wish you happy writing.

I have been writing reviews for this site for many months now. I love this site as it has helped me to decide on verious products before I made a purchase. I have shared all my experiences on various procducts here. Several times, I have been paid $1.50 on every good review. Good reviews that will help the readers to know all about a particular product which are also in demand is what is highly preferred based on my knowledge. Good site that makes prompt payment once You make a request for payment. Also a special mention of the bonus amount of 10$ I recieved last Christmas season. With all the money I earned online, a part of which came from this great site, I was able to purchase a cell phone for my husband on his birthday. The review of that product, I will be writing later in this site. From my experience so far, My advice to all other writers would be that when you write a review, write everything you want to know about the product if you are looking for a good review. This will make your reviews more valued at review stream.
I have recommended review stream to many of my friends and this is one of the best review sites I have seen so far. As soon as a review is submitted, I see a mail on submitted review in my mail box. Again I see a conformation mail on all accepted reviews and updated money in my account. I have a bit of disappointment as the "Request your account total online anytime" is not working for me. Whenever I give my name, it says "this username does not exist." Other than that I have no complaints or no regrets. I am happy being able to contribute to this great site and helping it grow. I am today proud to say that I am also a member of reviewstream family. Last but not the least, a site that if free to join helping many to fulfill the dreams of earning online.

When it comes to the internet one can get numerous ranges of ideas of websites. However none can compare to the recent Review Stream.com.
Not only can you find reports on different websites and how they were like or dislikes but also on practically anything ranging from electronics to medications to appliances. The best thing is that these reports were written by you the consumer so that all the reports can be objectionable.
Best part is you can also make some money in the long run. If you submit a report you can have it published at the bulk rate of 30 cents or at the dollar rate of one to two dollars, however these reports are a little harder to get published. When one reaches 50 dollars , just submit it for check .
This website has so many wonderful things written about it and many have also stated unlike other promises to get paid they were really paid.Its the best site the internet has ever had, and so informational.

The web site reviewstream.com is one of the few web sites I have been to that dose not feed you a line of bull.
I started writing articles in January of 2007 and by the middle of February I was able to earn 75.00 which I consider to be outstanding. I was a little uncertain at first if I would actually get paid what they claimed or if I just wrote the articles for nothing other than to say I had something published. I am happy to note that I did receive my money the same day I requested it from review stream which puts them at the top of my list of great companies to work for and with.
I like to think though that the articles I write do serve a valuable service to perspective buyers of products I have tried. I try to give as many details about the good and bad points so they will not have to loose as much money or time as I have on bad products. I hope that other reviewers would do the same. What good does it do if your not honest. Like most web sites you will not get rich writing for review stream but you can make enough to pay for some extra things like a trip to six flags over Georgia or a nice dinner for two. The amount you make is really up to you and the effort you put in it.
Reviewstream does not limit the quantity of submissions, nor does it seem to have an age limit for who can write a review. Which is great for my daughter who is 13 and loves to write .She has earned some money writing for review stream and it motivates her to write even more. The one thing that I found to be awkward was that review stream has a button for reviewing reviews and I have never been able to figure out how that works. I could not find any info in the facts and questions area either regarding it either. I really like the voting that they came out with because it allows everyone a chance to earn additional money.
So I say we should all give a big kudos to review stream for being one of a rare breed, honest.

I think that Reviewstream is one of the best kept secrets around. Should word get out more about the websight, I would be inclined to think that more at-home moms would be taking advantage of it, and just people in general who are looking to legitimately express their thoughts and opinions and get paid to do so. Because the websight puts no limits or confines onto how many opinions you are allowed to express, I think that more people will begin to make some serious money simply by evaluating stores, situations, and whatever other issues or dynamics may enter into their minds. These days, few work-at-home websights are actually legitimate, so its wonderful to see that Reviewstream is an honest company that values people's thougths and opinions. It gives people with disabilities and moms who are at home with their children the chance to feel like they are a valued part of a community, while at the same time being able to feel like they are able to contribute to their household finances in some way, shape, or form. I think that marketing-wise, Reviewstream's best bet is to go with word of mouth. That is how I discovered this fantastic websight, and so far, I am really pleased with the results! I would encourage you guys to keep doing what it is you are doing. By pleasing the people who are participating in leaving their opinions and thoughts for published reviews, you are doing the greatest service to yourselves because each time one of those people are pleased with the results, they then talk to someone else, and someone else decides to participate, and so the cycle will continue to repeat itself! Great job!
