How trustworthy is clickworker's security? Due to an error on my part they're requesting proof of identity (photo of social, license, passport and utility bill) to unlock my account. Im hesitant to send this info to anyone through email.

I've been doing the interview process for Veritext/Allegis and have passed all the steps so far, but the final one is having to pay for the $399 BlueLedge course (apparently my legal transcription sample wasn't good enough to get the cheaper course). I already have to buy a PC and foot pedal, so there will be a considerable buy-in if I decide to keep going. I have a great deal of transcription experience but not with legal transcription, but am looking for work I can do from home that could earn something between $300-400 a week. Could anyone weigh in on whether the buy-in ended up being worth it or not? Were you able to make money at this?

Has anyone recently signed into 3play and got a pop-up stating that you have to sign an independent contractor agreement? I'm wondering if it's just me because this has never happened before, and I thought I would've signed this when I started with them years ago. Thanks!

I found out my Airtm account was blocked, not from Airtm directly, but because Outlier notified me that my checkout had failed.

The message on Airtm says: "This account has been blocked to protect our users' network, or was deleted in case the user has requested it." I never requested deletion.

This makes no sense in my case. All of my income comes exclusively from Outlier, and every withdrawal I've made went only to my own e-wallet. No third-party transfers, nothing unusual. Now I have more than $600 stuck in the account.

I've contacted Airtm support but haven't received any clear explanation yet. Being locked out of my own funds without warning is really frustrating.

If you're getting paid by Outlier through Airtm, consider withdrawing regularly instead of keeping a large balance there.

Has anyone else had this happen? How long did it take to get your funds back, and which payout method did you switch to afterward?

I'd prefer if it was only chat, as my speaking is weak.

I have read many post saying DO NOT work for concentrix. BUT IS IT REALLY THAT BAD? I am a 20 years old currently working at HEB and I started applying for remote jobs with the goal of having a job that allows me to work from anywhere in the world. After weeks of applying I was able to land an interview as a Bilingual Customer Service representative for $18/hr. But now I have read some of the opinions of people that have worked for the company and it seems like everyone is screaming to get away from it as much as possible. PEOPLE... IS IT REALLY THAT BAD? as least for just 3-4 years?

Title says it all. Been laid off from business intelligence analyst and would love to find simple task work in the meantime. Outlier, Data Annotation and Alignerr have not been good to me, so if there's any better options in Ireland let me know.

I've been doing remote data entry work on and off for about two years now, mostly through platforms like Clickworker and a few smaller sites. Used to be pretty straightforward to get tasks approved and keep a steady flow going, but in the last few months it feels like everything changed.

I'm getting way more rejections for what seem like really minor issues, and some platforms I used regularly just aren't posting as many tasks anymore. I'm wondering if they oversaturated their worker pools or if the standards got stricter. I even had one site tell me my accuracy dropped below their threshold, but when I checked the feedback it was stuff like formatting choices that weren't even in the original guidelines.

Anyone else noticing this shift? I'm trying to figure out if I need to pivot to something else or if this is just a temporary thing. I've been looking at transcription work as an alternative but the pay seems inconsistent and I'm not sure it's worth the learning curve. Would appreciate any insight from people who've been in the data entry space for a while or who made a similar switch recently.

I got an email of a supposed representative from this company offering me a remote position, but so far I feel something is off. First the person emailed me and asked me for a number to text despite me wanting to chat via email, but its whatever. Second, I looked online and barely found anything about the company, only thing I found was a facebook account that was not that convincing to me. Third, the guy said the pay was $30 per hour for a data entry position which feels a bit too high. Has anyone heard or worked for this company before?

Edit: Thajks everyone for the comments. Got a call from the dude to join a virtual "interview", it was a pre-recorded video to work for an MLM for sales.

I'm mostly just looking for something to get me some extra cash as a side job. I'm not going for any major careers or trying to turn it into my main source of income (not that it can't if the opportunity arises. I am all for branching out and gaining new and real experience) My main job is starting to not cut it with just paying off my bills, let alone being able to save for big expenses (car maintenance, emergency fund, just a general cushion for something sudden)

I already have a very technical full-time job. Data entry and some administrative work is pretty much all I do besides some physical work, so I have pretty good experience with that side of things and I don't think I'd have much trouble getting the hang of things in that regard.

Transcription may also be a good from what I have seen. At least easy to get into, I guess, but I have no real experience in that. I haven't tested myself in a while, but my typing speed is pretty good which may help, but idrk.

I just don't know where to look or where to even start. Should I take some courses or tests to see if I could even do it? Is there anything financially I need to be aware of? If anyone has any suggestions or just general knowledge of what to do or where to start, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone!

I recently applied for a remote Audio Transcription Specialist (Italian language) position at TSMG (Terry Soot Management Group).

Today, I received an email from a recruiter using the company's domain (@tsmg.io), asking some preliminary questions about my experience, availability, English level, and preferred payment method. (here the mail: https://imgur.com/a/8du9CVQ)

Before proceeding, I'd love to hear from anyone who has actually worked with them.

I have a few questions:

• Is TSMG a reliable company? Do they actually pay their freelancers?
• How much can you realistically earn from transcription projects?
• What was the recruitment process like?
• Has anyone received payments directly into a regular bank account using an IBAN (SEPA transfer), without needing Wise or Revolut?
• The recruiter also mentioned "Yetsy certificates" as a possible payment method. Does anyone know what this means? I've never heard of it before.
• Have you experienced any issues with payments, rejected tasks, or unexpected requirements?

I'm mainly looking for firsthand experiences, especially from people based in Europe or working on transcription projects.

Thanks in advance for any insights!

I want to find an online job but idk how to apply. I also want to know if the company I'm applying is legit. Plss help

I have been unable to login to SRW for going on week 3. a ticket has been opened and they can’t even figure it out. I can’t get anymore to call me as they say the will!, this is so frustrating

Received an email from no-reply@hire.eu.lever.co saying they are Lionbridge contacting me from a recent time I applied to them and offering me a English (US) Voice Recording Opportunity for 15/hr.

Just curious if anyone has similar emails &/ is it a scam? Thanks.

Sagility have had many non-phone job postings, but whenever I click apply on them, I get redirected to another page that says Please proceed with this application link only if you are seeking Contact Center Associate Role opportunities. It then asks me to apply to a customer service job on the phone instead.

I have literally had this with every non-phone job of theirs I have tried applying to. Is this typical for them? Why do they post new jobs that keep rerouting to others? I am getting so frustrated.

I’ve seen Wise recommended a lot whenever freelancers talk about getting paid by international clients.

But I’m curious, are people still sticking with Wise, or have you found something that works better for your situation?

For me, the important things are simple: reasonable fees, a fair exchange rate, and not having to jump through too many hoops whenever i receive a payment.

Would be interesting to hear what everyone is actually using.

i am currently studying computer science and i am scared i have nothing to show for when i eventually look for a job after graduation. so i thought i could try getting some leverage by already getting some workplace experience while earning extra cash i need as i live alone. my schedule keeps my days packed so i’ve been surfing through remote and part time data entry jobs that i could fit into the gaps of my day. but i realize i know nothing and am not even sure what i should be looking for, so i’m here for advice. the only coding experience i have are from class activities and projects where python, sql, java, power bi, and excel are the ones i might be confident enough in, but even for those i’m not good but not terrible. what kind of jobs should i look for? and where?

I desperately need help for this. I've retried it maybe 13 or more times, to the point I've seen almost every question and gotten them all right. I've reread the rules I don't even know how many times... But I keep failing the last "Edit The Transcript" question. I've tried everything I could think of. I will actually pay someone to help me with this. Please.
It's probably an issue with punctuation... I normally try to use punctuation in a way that sounds closest to how the speaker speaks, but that's apparently not always grammatically correct, and it seems TranscribeMe values that over the way it reads.
Either that or the way e-trans is written. I looked it up, but apparently it can be written either way. I know there's a rule about how you write email, so there may be a rule about this as well...

Has anyone worked here? Is it legit?

Test wage. Has anyone did any work or missions for them? Were you payed?

I plan to pivot from working a full time job I hate to working part time in hopes to allow more free time to learn skills that will help me work for myself. What skills should I learn in 2026 to freelance out some work? Right now I’m interested in social media management or marketing!

Hi all, so as the title says i applied and got “accepted” to WrkWrk and have signed up for my first shift. I haven’t really seen any posts at all about this app on reddit before so I jsut wanted to see if anyone on here has used the app before etc Ik like every place you go to is different with different employers but any like advice, tips or even share your thoughts on the app or the experience would be appreciated , as this is my first time doing gig work ( although i have had jobs before though). Also do they need to check ID or anything when i get there ?. Thanks in advance!

I'm looking for something that can earn me some extra money to spend on myself. I just finished high school and trying to be a independent. Any small type of jobs that can be learned in a month would do. I was considering doing data entry or similar type of work. Or maybe some blog writing related jobs. Are these options viable? I'm not very creative person. So design related jobs wouldn't be possible for me I believe. Honestly, any job with an hourly rate of 5-10£ or more would do
