No projects

You will be approved for projects and they claim you can work on them but you will never receive an email sending Pins or links to be able to directly access the projects. When asked they will say that the target demographic has been reached already- then why did I get approved for the project if it’s full? I would assume it would reject my application not accept and approve me stating I can now work the project I just need to access the email that I was never sent. You will also apply for multiple projects and won’t get accepted or rejected for any of them, they will remain in a pending status for months. I have not been able to see any other offers as I have applied to all the ones available for me so there are no more for me to apply to. I figured this would be a good way to make some money on the side however it only would be good if you could actually work anything. Customer service was fast at responding to me and polite when I mentioned the issue at hand which was really nice but the issues I have still stand.

Will not pay you

Locked me out when it came time to pay me and refused to send me any type of way to verify my account so I can log in me collect my earnings. What a cheap bunch of losers.

You’re just a number to them

Customer service is robotic and cold. I worked on their projects as an independent contractor for over 3 years. One day I randomly decided I’d change my mailing address since I had moved (even though we get no mail) and instead of explaining anything to me… the rep terminated my account effective immediately.

During a global pandemic they used an address change to terminate a 3+ year contractor with high performance in all projects I was on.

Worst part is they still email me all the work available on these projects as if my account is still active. And the support team can’t unsubscribe me or diagnose what happened to reactivate my account.

I’ve worked for a lot of “freelance” or task based companies like this… they are by far the most corporate and cold. You’re totally on your own and they won’t help you. It’s been 6 months or more and I’m only finally getting any sense of a decent reply recently but still no resolution.

The worst

A tech business whose webpage & app is from 1994. The worst.

Swindle, scam, waste of time!

Horrible experience!

camera doesn’t have a timer

Broglen project requires a camera and I cannot find a timer in the camera I have an iPhone 12 pro max

Scammers?!

I guess I’ll unenroll and discard this app because the reviews always make a valid point. Thanks everyone for your honesty.

Doesn’t work

The app tells me “you are using a null web browser to register your device… this is known to cause issues… only use chrome safari etc”

The null browser I’m using is the App

Tried it, did a job, never got paid

I did one of the project jobs. Decided to wait till I was paid to do another. Never got paid. Double checked all my info and links. No issues, just never got paid. I’m not chasing $30. I’ll just ditch the app.

Update: a month later, got an email that my invoice was accepted but I’m STILL NOT PAID. 5 months. Who works for minimum wage and then waits 4-5 months to get paid…?

More language option

It would be great if there’s more language options, I saw two types of Chin are included, when there’s a lot more. I’m Mizo Chin and would love it if it’s included.
