### 3/5 — Interface and filling up information multiple times

*2026-06-16, version 29.13.3*

I have only just started using the app and creating my profile. I find the interface quite messy - I had to fill in my work experience and introductory video at least 5 times because the progress would not be saved from one time opening the app to the next one. Then, you have to go through the same “add your work experience” and upload a video for each stint team, the button gets you to a form.jotform link that will loose your progress if you go out of that tab into another app I.e. your Notes App. These bugs should be looked into as they are time consuming and frustrating

### 4/5 — So Far, So Good

*2026-05-12*

On a technical note,

I think the app needs the ability to let you see the exact shifts that you have completed which details the time you checked in to the shift, the pay you earned and other minute details as all you can see in relation to how much you earned is the gross amount for all your stints in your profile which isn’t convenient.

I think this will help in terms of clarity to understand what may need to be deducted because of taxes and to overall just have a better understanding of what and when something was completed.

### 4/5 — Big time request to Stint

*2026-03-18, version 29.9.0*

It’s a great concept. Any chance you have a student position for your dev team? Hire me as your intern???

### 1/5 — Data harvesting at its finest

*2025-09-01, version 29.5.3*

I have been using this app for almost a year. I have applied for a job every single time I get a notification. I have not received an update or offer. Even the apps own employment recruitment provides you with nothing in return.  I did apply directly with one of the companies that allegedly uses the app with the same information I put on the app and got a job. They have never even heard of the app. I will be closing my account and asking for my days to be removed

### 1/5 — Absolute trash

*2025-08-07, version 29.5.2*

I have been waiting to get my id verification done for the past 2 and half years and it is still saying processing not a single thing has changed can’t even get support  or anything it is really frustrating cause you won’t be able to do anything if the id check isn’t complete

### 1/5 — Verification system is poor

*2025-07-01, version 29.4.2*

Trying to verify right to work is very bad I’ve tried using my passport in all different lightings and is unable to verify,please fix the system I have not have had a problem with verification on other platforms :(

### 1/5 — No invites from teams

*2025-06-21, version 29.4.1*

Honestly didn’t get any invitation from any team since now

### 1/5 — Cannot use

*2025-05-30, version 29.4.0*

Unable to verify identity due to glitch

### 1/5 — Disappointment

*2025-05-27, version 29.4.0*

I’ve been filling out applications on Stint since February, and it’s now been over three months without a single job offer or meaningful update. Despite applying consistently and meeting the criteria, I’ve only received rejections – without any explanation or feedback. It’s extremely frustrating and demotivating to be continuously overlooked with no transparency or communication. How is it possible to be rejected for every stint over such a long period? If there are limited opportunities or stricter criteria, that should be communicated clearly to users. At this point, it feels like a complete waste of time.

### 2/5 — It’s a shame

*2025-05-23*

Honestly, if you had asked me how I felt about Stint a week ago, I would have said it was a great app for students - you have access to a variety of short shifts (2-4hours) that you can flexibly fit around your studying schedule.  But then out of nowhere, Stint cancelled many of our jobs after claiming it had ‘informed us earlier that our jobs were at risk’ and may actually not last more than 2 months. It’s a shame how they’ve left us with no income and stress after only a day’s notice that about the fact that we will be without a job. If you want a stable job, don’t work here. I hate to give negative reviews, stint seemed amazing at first but turned into a massive and unexpected let down.

**Developer response:** Hey, thank you for your feedback. We understand your frustration, and we are sorry about the situation. We have tried our best to put people into other Teams; however, with limited options, it was a situation out of our control. This is a rare case, and we are extremely sorry that this has happened to you. If you want to discuss further, please contact us through the app - select "Account" > "Help" > "Live Chat". EP

### 1/5 — Two Years and Still No ID Verification- Unacceptable

*2025-05-09*

I have been waiting for two years for this app to verify my identity, and despite multiple attempts, emails, and support tickets, nothing has been resolved. This level of neglect is absolutely unacceptable. In that time, countless updates have been released, but somehow basic verification-a fundamental feature-remains broken or ignored. 
The lack of support is equally frustrating. If you’re going to require ID verification for full access, then make sure the process actually works and that your team responds in a timely, respectful manner. As it stands, this app has completely failed me.
Avoid this app if you expect reliable service or even basic respect as a user.

**Developer response:** Hey, thank you for your feedback. We apologise that you have had a bad experience with us. Your patience is very much valued, and we understand your frustration as this is long for ID verification. We will pass this information on to the team so that we can improve, but please don't hesitate to contact our support team as we want to resolve your situation - select "Account" > "Help" > "Live Chat" in your app. EP

### 1/5 — Can’t get any stints

*2025-05-07, version 29.4.0*

I’ve had years of hospitality experience but I can’t seem to get any job opportunities, I’ve applied for 10+ stints and heard nothing back

### 2/5 — gone downhill

*2025-05-07*

used to be great, now barely anything available and the stint teams aren’t very student friendly as there’s often a 20+ week MINIMUM commitment (has also been getting noticeably longer??) which isn’t realistic for most people at uni so kind of defeats the whole point, might as well get a normal part time job since that’s actually more flexible. also have to add your availability hour by hour for the entire week which is unnecessarily inconvenient. used to use it a fair bit and made some good money but now it’s basically only useful if ur not going anywhere for 6 months

**Developer response:** Hey, thank you for your feedback! We are sorry that you feel our services have declined. We’ve introduced minimum commitments on some teams based on requests for more consistent work, but we understand it’s not for everyone. We’re working on adding more flexible opportunities and improving the availability by speaking with potential Partners. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts, as it helps us improve!

### 4/5 — Mom

*2025-04-16, version 29.3.2*

Blue Crab

### 1/5 — App not working

*2025-04-11, version 29.3.1*

I haven’t even had the opportunity to work at stint because everytime I upload my details (work experience and my video) it disappears! So my application just isn’t going through which is really frustrating I can’t get any team invites.

### 1/5 — No feedback on applications

*2025-03-29*

I don’t understand this app i have had it for months now and i keep applying for roles but you don’t get any email response whether you’re application has been submitted and even after you make an application they will never inform you of the outcome it just keeps telling you to apply to new roles i am starting to doubt whether i am applying to actuall job openings or they just want to keep people applying for roles that dont exist.

**Developer response:** Hey, we apologise you have had a bad experience with Stint. Usually, if you haven't heard from our team within 1-2 weeks of applying, you have been unsuccessful. We understand it is frustrating not hearing back and we will pass this on to our team for the future, as we are always looking to improve our services. EP

### 1/5 — Very bad experience

*2025-03-24*

I’ve been working with Stint for three months with consistently good reviews. Suddenly, after two recent shifts where I did everything right, I got a strike and my account was disabled — with no warning or explanation.

The only way to contact support is through the chat, and they barely respond. How can you disable my account just based on a business review without checking with me? I worked at the same place twice, and they loved me. Now, out of nowhere, I’m blocked.

As a student who relies on this platform, this is beyond frustrating. Terrible communication and completely unfair treatment.  I shouldn’t even give one star rating but that’s the lowest I can give

**Developer response:** Hey, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry that you’ve had a bad experience with Stint. 

We understand your disappointment; however, we must stick to our rules as Stinters play a vital role in our businesses. Things like poor service, incorrect uniforms, cancellations, lateness and no-shows hugely impact them. 

Like most part-time hospitality jobs, being hard-working, enthusiastic and proactive on Stints is essential, and providing businesses with this lasting positive experience keeps them coming back for more Stinters and continuing to improve the benefits we offer!

### 2/5 — Save your time

*2025-03-20, version 29.2.5*

I heard about this App through my uni it sounded like such a good opportunity was so exited to apply and start working. I applied to multiple teams none have gotten back to me, even if they don’t want me working with them I’d really appreciate if they actually let me know that I don’t get accepted instead of giving me hope that they might come back to me.

### 2/5 — Do not recommend!

*2025-02-27*

For most part of the year they barely have any shifts available, 1/2 if you are lucky enough it catch it seconds within the time it is posted. They are overly strict and petty in terms on clocking in on time, they took off 30p off my pay because I clocked in on the dot instead of a few minutes early. They are way too pretentious for what it is. During shifts you are so overworked by the business because you are not their direct employee and I have dealt with a lot of issues with stint itself. Overall not worth it at all do not recommend.

**Developer response:** Hey, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you have had a bad experience with our app. Though our terms may seem strict, we must stick to our rules as Stinters play a vital role in our businesses. Regarding the issues that you have had, please do not hesitate to contact us through live chat by selecting "Account > "Help" > "Live Chat" so we can discuss more about what has happened. EP

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-01-17, version 29.1.2*

I tried to login it but it always say error. When you try to enter NIN it only allowed 8 characters and shows to enter 9 characters. App is full of bugs

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No respect for workers, exploitative

*2026-07-25*

Very disappointing experience with Stint. I felt I was treated unfairly, and my concerns were not properly listened to. The communication was unclear, and the way the situation was handled felt one-sided. As a worker, it felt like decisions were made without fully considering my explanation or the context of what happened.

The platform also feels exploitative towards workers. Workers are expected to be flexible, reliable and available for short shifts, but there does not seem to be the same level of support or protection when something goes wrong. Ratings, strikes or account issues can affect someone’s ability to get work, yet the process does not feel transparent or balanced. It feels like workers carry most of the risk, while the platform and businesses have more control. There’s also a lot of bias and unfair treatment towards the workers.

This caused me unnecessary stress and affected my confidence in using the platform. I believe Stint needs to improve how it handles worker disputes, ratings, strikes, communication and support, because workers deserve fair treatment, clear processes and respect. Based on my experience, I would not recommend it.

### 1/5 — False performance review

*2026-05-27*

I have been unfairly banned. I have received a false performance review claiming that "you weren't treating the customers well during the shift, and you weren't as enthusiastic about getting along with the team members at the site". However due to the nature of the job, I did not interact with customers as I was fulfilling delivery orders where I was reading from a receipt and making salads for delivery so I never even have the opportunity to serve customers. Additionally I always receive compliments from the team for my good work ethic. So I believe that this performance review must be a mistake as it is completely inconsistent.

### 1/5 — Overall real review

*2026-05-09*

I had a mixed experience using this app. While I was able to complete shifts and did receive payment, there are several important issues that new users should be aware of.

Firstly, the availability of shifts can be quite limited depending on your location, making it difficult to find consistent work. In addition, there is little to no training provided before starting, so you are often expected to perform immediately without proper guidance.

The app states that there is a “three strikes” policy before account deactivation. However, in my experience, this was not followed as expected, and my account was deactivated much more quickly without clear warning or the opportunity to improve.

Because of this, the platform can feel quite unforgiving. There is very little feedback, support, or chance to learn from mistakes, which can be difficult, especially for those new to this type of work.

I would advise anyone considering this app to be cautious and fully understand the expectations before starting. While it can offer short-term experience, it may not provide the support, consistency, or job security that many users are looking for.

Overall, the concept is useful, but improvements are needed in transparency, training, and user support.

### 1/5 — Stupid app

*2026-04-16, version 29.11.1*

My phone number has changed and it says in order to update number I need to contact support; when I land on the support centre page, I am met with a chat bot, which only has three options which are far from relevant, and when I click on any of the options; it ends the conversation. It's weird it doesn't just allow me to update my phone number. Lazy workers, shameful company.

### 1/5 — Unusable app and no means to contact

*2026-04-13, version 29.11.0*

Following an ad on social media, downloaded to have a further look but when you go to create account it always leads to an error page and you are unable to create an account

Furthermore, the only way seek any support is through the same app that you cannot log in through.

If this is how they treat you before you even get in the door, then this sheds poor light on how they treat you inside, so not even worth wasting time on going further.

### 1/5 — Fake

*2026-04-09, version 29.11.0*

I could not add my work experience

### 1/5 — Unfair rating from Business

*2026-03-16, version 29.9.0*

I did a stint a couple days ago and I have an unfair rating even tho I did everything I was asked to do. And the worst thing is that you can’t dispute the claim if the business rates you bad

### 1/5 — Unusable with no help team

*2025-11-04*

I couldn’t even get started with this. The app wouldn’t let me ‘add my work experience’ as when I submitted answers to the questions I was taken back to the beginning as if I haven’t answered. App was fully up to date, submitted this to their tech team days ago and they don’t come back to you. 
Literally no way to get in touch with any kind of human at stint so even if you did work and had any problems you’re screwed. It says ‘open the app and go to account>help>live chat but this sends you to an AI bot where you can’t even type anything in. You have to select from their 3 options and none of them go to speaking to anyone. Terrible app and literally zero customer service.?

**Developer response:** Hey! We are so sorry that you haven't had a good experience with us or our app. We understand that this can be extremely frustrating. We have an AI bot to help direct your queries to the appropriate people, as we receive a high volume of queries every day and our team works incredibly hard to answer every one. Usually, you can speak to someone after the generated questions. 

If you are having technical issues, we have another option! Simply select "Account" > "Help us improve the app" > "Report a problem" and these queries will go directly to our technical team! 

Again, we deeply apologise for the issues you have experienced, and we hope that the information we have given you can be of assistance! EP

### 1/5 — Bad experience with Stint Agency

*2025-10-04, version 29.7.0*

I had a deeply disappointing experience with this organization. The employees I dealt with were rude and highly unprofessional. They assigned me tasks at the very last minute, creating unnecessary stress, and despite fulfilling all the requirements, they unjustly held my account.
This treatment was a disgrace and has left me struggling with the trauma caused by their actions. I strongly advise others not to waste their time with this organization. The recruitment team is full of rude and non considerate individuals.

### 1/5 — Stint teams ruined the app

*2025-09-23, version 29.6.1*

used to be student friendly now seems to be impossible to get a stint now without using Stint teams that give you the slight chance of being accepted to a team which requires months of commitment, terrible app now

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Poor and Unprofessional stint staffs

*2024-11-30, version 29.1.1*

Absolutely unbelievable!! I received a call from the stint staff and she was just so rude! And unprofessional.

### 5/5 — Marriott

*2024-06-23, version 28.14.0*

Great moment

### 5/5 — The best

*2024-05-10, version 28.10.0*

Stint is literally the best organization that provides you with shifts through their app.

### 5/5 — Perfect start

*2024-04-27, version 28.7.0*

Was a great experience

### 5/5 — Stint

*2023-09-29*

Been working for stint for about a year now which works great with my studies. The staff at stint have all been amazing and so friendly, understanding and present whenever their is an issue I.e In app issues. All businesses I have encountered have been really welcoming, I’ve met great people and the communication is always clear. I recommend to all students looking for flexible hours and as there’s lots of different roles/businesses to choose from which is ideal.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for your feedback. We're really pleased to hear that you're finding Stint useful!

### 5/5 — My real experience

*2023-09-27, version 27.2.2*

Stint is an amazing app and opportunity for the young people and specially for students to gain quick experience from around the top restaurants of London and earning as well

### 5/5 — The app is great compared to other agencies

*2023-09-27, version 27.2.2*

The app is great compared to other agencies. But,  a very few individual companies that offers the jobs on the app are not so, still the majority is great!. And the overall experience have been great so far.

### 5/5 — Long timer, love it

*2023-05-27, version 26.0.6*

Great for some funds for a last minute errand, so very appreciative of quick payment a week after the Stint. Definitely some highs and lows in my 3 years on the app, but that’s due to the individual businesses themselves rather than the Stint corporation. Stint always responds rapidly when you have a query, so I’m thankful for the paid opportunity to explore my city

### 5/5 — part time job opportunity for students

*2022-12-23, version 25.7.0*

This is the best platform to earn some cash by part time jobs especially for students. Best thing is, you just need to sign up through app and select your hours whenever you want to work. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Really useful app

*2022-11-27*

I joined a couple of years ago in my first year of uni. Didn’t have any work experience, so was a bit nervous before my first stint - but it was super easy to settle in. 
I like how flexible it is, when I went away all summer I didn’t have to pause my account or anything. 
I love the new app update - so many improvements over the time I have used it.

**Developer response:** It's delightful to hear such positive feedback :) - Perry
