Themutual.net is now a mere shadow of it's former self, but is still pumping out 1,000 new shares to those individuals who are inclined to join.

What's the story ? Is it worth it ? And what could I get out of it ?

Well, at the moment the shares are worth very little, in fact, nearly nothing - if you sold all your 1000 free shares you MIGHT get 30p !! (Before dealing costs !!)

So what is so special about the site ?

To be honest, NOTHING !! Themutual.net has positioned itself now as pretty much a permission marketing and sales portal, offering virtually worthless shares in exchange for you either receiving advertising emails or signing up to the 'offers' on the site. While some of these offers may be OK in their own right, the free shares are generally a very thin icing on the cake.

So is this the end for themutual.net ? Why would I sign-up for them now ?

Well, a stockbroker called Comdirect is offering new customers who are referred to it by existing customers £50 to join.

Here's the good bit, you have fulfilled the joining criteria when you deposit shares in your account !! So, you could sign-up to the mutual.net, get 1,000 pretty worthless shares and then deposit them in a newly opened Comdirect account, claim the £50 and walk away a happy man !!

So, my rating of themutual.net is very poor, of it's shares, not much, but of the potential opportunity to those thinking and operating 'outside the box' it could be a nice little £50 welcome to the New Year !!
