Blingo

[Guest]

Has anyone tried Blingo? The description is below and, unlike incentive sites, you don't need to register at all. If you join the friends link below, you do have to only give them your email address and create a username. The only personal information collected is if you win so they can send you the prize.

Click the link below to join and if I win a prize, you win the same prize as well. The rules and the TOS are accessible from the link as well.

Join Blingo(uses Google) Friends

Blingo is a new search engine that gives away prizes every day
like Sony PlayStation Portables, Apple iPods, Amazon Gift
Certificates, a year of free movies at Blockbuster Online, and
more.

By joining Blingo Friends you can invite your friends to use
Blingo, and when one of them wins a prize you win the same prize.
That means if one of your friends wins an iPod, you win one too.

Just click this link to join Blingo Friends (it only takes 15
seconds), or copy it and paste it into your browser:

Lots/most websites that have referral systems suggest posting to forums. How am I suppose to do this without posting, plus I've contributed to this website before. I know you're not suppose to spam, this is the only thread I intend to make on here and it's the only one about Blingo on this website.

This is a general discussion board with different topics and I would have posted about this even if I didn't have a ref link.

Pete's suggestion makes no sense considering I just said that if a person wins so does the friends who signed up with them.

... considering I just said that if a person wins so does the friends who signed up with them.Actually you didnt say that initially, and even if you meant that, I suspected it was wrong so I followed Petes link & lifted this off the faq "Yes, if someone you invited wins a movie ticket, you get a movie ticket.

This does not mean all friends get a movie ticket when one in the group wins, unless you only have one friend ;)

& if you won no one in your friends gets a prize.

B.T.W. one drawback is its only for U.S. residents,there will be others.

That&#39;s okay if you followed Pete&#39;s link but my link has the same faq on the page as well so it doesn&#39;t matter if you want to look at them.

I did say/mean that in red. I do see your point, nowhere on the site does it say that it goes both ways, just that you win any of your referral&#39;s prizes. It doesn&#39;t say that it won&#39;t go both ways either so I will email them, but it is doubtful.

What&#39;s the drawback to only searching 10 times a day for a chance to win a prize(s)? This isn&#39;t the first time Blingo has done this, I wouldn&#39;t want to waste my time either if it wasn&#39;t legit. So what if it&#39;s for the US if you live in the US, which I suspect a lot of people on this board do.


For now clicking the link will be helping me out, with the possibility of it helping you out. I will email them though and find out. I could signup under someone else&#39;s link for some other site if I&#39;m not already doing it.
