There is too many people using China Mobile. Mostly bought from ‘Chor Bazar’ type market. Though I don’t have one but most of my friend and some of my relative have it. It is cost effective and readily available to any mobile market. However the selling is illegal but nobody catch them. By the way you have to rethink on buying a Chinese mobile now. Mobile which comes with 15 digit IMEI(International Mobile Equipment Identity) will get ban soon in India. And this sound interesting that most of China mobile come with it where others come with 16 digit.

Official Reason: Due to not maintain international EMEI digit system this mobile is untraceable which is harmful for country security system and another problem is same EMEI exist on many system.

What going to be happen if you have It?

Service provider will disconnect your mobile connection however they will send a sms first asking you to change the handset.

Now what will you do with this fake handset?

This is a nice question. Mobile mostly used because we need to connect people wireless. Nevertheless, now in this era we can do more thing with it. Like listen music,play video,play game etc. If you want to reuse this mobile for those purposes you must have and useless sim card. Now enjoy your mobile like a virtual iPod.

What will you do?

If you have any China Mobile they ready to buy branded phone if you don’t have any. And you have another job. Inform your friend about it.

Join Now 6dgr.com here

Whats My View?

The site download speed little slow site. It takes nearly 13sec to download your page. Though the default setup is faster only take 9-10sec. You only get 20mb to upload your picture. However I think it will increase soon as it grow.

Why they paying you?

That’s the most asked question. However think what should you do to promote your social network. There are Facebook, MySpace, Orkut, Hi5 so why someone join in your network? Recently I visit a social network who give you the facility to send sms to any phone in India. Nevertheless the worst part is I go there for sending sms, the site don’t appeal me to log in there for different purpose. If this site not paid me, I will never review it. Isn’t it?

Whats my thought about their paying idea?

I don’t think, they will continue paying each member. I think they soon stop it. Maybe they have a plan to pay up to a number of members like first 1 million member. Because they continue to pay each member then they very soon going to lose there bank balance when their site grows.

What My Advice?

I strictly telling you don’t click the blog link. There are lot of people offering you new earning money idea. However some of it really scam. If you still go there then don’t forget to make a search on Google about that site. That’s the most secure thing. I think, they will stop it when they get a good number of members in their tally.

Whats their payment option?

As I told you they will pay you and your friend (up to 6 level) for each member you refer. Also they advertise they will pay a loyalty bonus but I don’t able to find the condition to get loyalty bonuses. I will try to get information as soon as possible for you. They also pay for those services purchased by your network through 6dgr. They will pay through CreditCard, Debit Card (only USA Member) and paypal.

When you will get paid?

You must be active memeber i.e. uploading a photo and entering some basic personal information and a valid email and mailing address, and signing up for an account with one of their Preferred Payment Solutions (this account will be used to pay you when you make money)and registering the Preferred Payment partner with 6dgr.They make payment in every two weeks. The minimum payout for USA member is $5 and $10 for international member.

My Note: You must have an active US member in your referal list to get paid from them.
