Surprise, surprise, another remote work site that "doesn't hire in my area." Then tries to refer me to Outlier.ai, another site that doesn't hire in my area.

How this company uses Trustpilot
See how their reviews and ratings are sourced, scored, and moderated.
For those who say they don't pay
For those who say they don't pay, they do pay. It's just that they pay in very small amounts. For the projects that I had a high rating in, I was disqualified. I WON'T RECOMMEND THIS SITE TO ANYONE.

My account has suddenly stopped working and i have received to help.
for anyone claiming they dont pay you…
for anyone claiming they dont pay you need to shut up and stop being butthurt because you were lazy and got fired from your projects. They for sure pay and are legit. The reviewers on the other hand are quite often not qualified and will change your responses even if they are correct and it will drop your score down to where they boot you from a project. that's where I am at. I was receiving weekly payouts. Once or twice they held some over until the next one but they always pay. I wish there was a way to speak with someone in a higher authority position so I can continue working but alas I am stuck waiting for the people I have access to to do nothing at all. I was thoroughly happy with the site until I was screwed by the reviewers.
0 trust
0 trust. I am not sure humans are involved. If they are they are shameful folks full of disregard for business ethics and with heads spinning of how they may be making it on luck for a time. I am a graduate writer and they won't send me work my que is always empty after my initial 80 bucks and tons of referrals. IT IS SAD THAT if online at this day and age if you are paid a single penny no one wants to bark at you. THIS IS definitely a scam one where all their profits are bad to advertising a difference. PAY ONLINE
If I could give no starts or negative I…
If I could give no starts or negative I would. I didn’t expect a lot of money from this, I did receive a very very small amount for the training but it has been a week and have yet to be given an actual task or even complete the training that I’m not sure I have. I wouldn’t waste my time with this nonsense.
Scammers
Initially, I received some payments (small). Over time, they banned me from every project in which I was getting good results, answers to my questions were obviously not forthcoming. The last project they assigned me to, they valued each task at $0 for me. Yes, you read that right, at $0!!! Scammers and that's it
SPAM EMAILS (84 of them in under 30 days)
If I could give less than 1, I would. I currently have a trashbin full of emails from Remotasks. I have unsubbed, I've used Google to unsub, I've written emails and tried to get into Slack with the 2 people whose emails are in the spam messages.
There are 84 messages since May 31. We are June 21. Run screaming from them.
Wish they would stick to the same rules.
So far I'm not too upset with my experience on this site. I do one task every time I get around to logging in, and based on my speed and the fact that I have 100% accuracy, I've made about 8 dollars each time. I've been paid religiously every Wednesday, which is always a nice surprise because I forget about it sometimes. this past week I got 14 dollars. The only real problem I have is that every time I log in and I tell myself I'll spend a couple of hours doing tasks so I can make some nice pocket cash, I log in to see a change in guidelines and formatting rules. The tasks require us to be accurate in our work, but it feels like every time I get the rules down, they change. I have to spend hours going over the new rules and by the time I get to actually doing the tasks, I'm tired or I have to do something else. It's almost like they're trying to confuse me to take my accuracy down, but so far I've been careful. Thankfully occasionally the training pays. Still, I wish they would stick to one set of rules. You won't make an income from this, but it is cool to get a bit of side cash to treat yourself with.
Scam
I participated in the project of this company, and we had the respected customer. However, the actions of this company can destroy the reputation of any customer. We were recruited for an AI training project with rate $18 an hour. As a result, they paid at a rate which is 3 times less. The load was expected to be 20 hours per week. Instead, I managed to work normally only 2 times, the rest of the time either there were no tasks, or there were only training tasks, the payment for which was disproportionately small. For two months of work in the company, we have never received feedback regarding the quality of the work performed. Also, we have not received information regarding clear and specific rate per hour. As time passed, me and many other employees were simply removed from the project without explanation. As a result, we were deceived with payment, and with the amount of work, and with the duration of the project, and also the company did not fulfill the promise to recalculate the payment. Me and many of my colleagues sincerely believe that this company carries out fraudulent activities, works without a contract, and does not fulfill the terms of cooperation. I hope that these scammers will be punished by the police and justice.
Don’t waste your time!
I had a 100% rating for the project that I was working on and was banned. I contacted support, and they told me that I was banned for either multiple accounts, spamming tasks, using a VPN, misbehavior, or poor quality, when I didn’t do any of those. They said that this decision was made by the admins after a "thorough examination" and that this decision is irreversible and that I would not be paid at all for my work last week. I feel like they just don't want to pay you after you make a certain amount of money, as I'd made about $500 in total, including the money I wasn't paid. This company sucks, and I don't recommend working for them at all. Don’t waste your time unless you feel like getting banned for no reason and not even getting paid.
They don't pay and stop responding if you insist on getting paid
I tried their services once and done some training and tasks. I got positive review (98% despite really badly written description) and then I waited for first pay. I got a real job meanwhile, so I wasn't really interested in tasking anymore. So I was waiting to get paid by Remotasks. And I wasn't. I waited for another week and still no payment. Over next few months I contacted them via community tickets (requests), I wrote e-mails to support, contacted them on Facebook. They stopped responding after second e-mail, even when I requested deleting my data and personal information.
To sum it up: they are scamming people and withholding your data without permission. Avoid at all costs.
Complete and utter waste of time
I can't believe I've wasted hours on this to earn about £7. The instructions on the training section are diabolical. It makes no sense whatsoever. It seems impossible to succeed at a task. I entered information 100% correctly on one and was told I got 25% right. Do not waste a minute on this.
I have been working with this company…
I have been working with this company handling 2D projects spacefically image segmentation projects, having got alot of experience on them perhaps it has taken me to know the use of different tools to pertake the work.
I have been delivering good quality tasks
Poorly Managed Company
From poor training to ambiguous and constantly changing guidelines, this company is poorly managed. You are given tasks to complete under certain instructions. Once you complete and submit the task and it’s ready for review, the guidelines change so the task you just completed is wrong, but your task is now evaluated according to the new guidelines. This is a constant day to day, hour to hour occurrence. No one seems to have any idea what they are doing.
Don't waste your time with this.
The site is slow and buggy, their support is about as useful as tits on a fish, but at least they pay. Well, unless you make more than 100$, because if you do, probably they won't pay you, and you can't do anything about it, since their support is probably an ancient bot, at least I hope they are not humans. So do yourself a favor, and don't waste your time with them.
A JOKE!!!
Remotasks is a joke, if you suck at your job they don't pay you. And then eventually they will kick you out and stop sending tasks to you. You spend so much time for 3 cents. It is not worth it at all.
These people need to close up shop
These people need to close up shop. No communication whatsoever to help with issues. I sent in a support ticket over a week ago and have not heard from anyone. Their "chatroom SLACK" is EMPTY so no help there at all. Support keeps sending me to place a "ticket" which I have done but no reply. Forget this place and find somewhere else to put YOU TALENTS to better use!
Quite tough to earn anything meaningful
This feels like a scam website. I did get paid almost $100 for a day's work. However I was 995/1000 tasks when it would no longer give me any tasks to get the bonus $10 at 1000 tasks. It switched to another task that had a similar requirement. I completed that and got the bonus but could not do the double. I felt very cheated.
That wasn't so bad, however since then it has been a week and every day, numerous times of the day I have attempted new tasks even when they send me emails telling me there are new tasks for me. I try, and get the same screen telling me my task queue is empty, please refresh the page.
This feels like I am just being pushed out as they can just say there are more people doing tasks than they have tasks available.
I feel like they used me initially to do the work, then want to ignore me after that. So be wary.
Almost 2 weeks later I have new job offers but these are much more difficult compared to the previous tasks I completed. I haven't attempted the new tasks yet, but I maintain, it's quite hard using this site if you need a steady income stream.
Remotask SCAMMED ME for free work it…
Remotask SCAMMED ME for free work it only pays you once little bit of money than after that in every task while you work 0 problems works perfect but when you're about to finish and submit the task so you could earn money the website starts messing up lagging and stalling forcing you to skip the task so you don't earn money
