Textbrokers are scammers I applied for textbrokers because I saw that they pay more now. I just got an email that said. During a recent review of your account, it was flagged as having activity potentially indicative of fraud. Protecting your identity is one of our primary goals, so your account was automatically closed until this can be resolved. Please submit a new "selfie" photo of yourself holding your state ID or passport, and include in the photo today’s date and your signature written on a piece of paper. This means your entire face must be clear and visible. Please also include a second photograph of the ID and signed/dated paper alone to ensure that we can read all of the information. I did not have a picture up on my profile and saw some of the reviews on Trustpilot that said the same thing happened to them too. The question is why is Textbrokers doing that to people?

Great website with fabulous authors. Have used their service several times and will do so in the future.

I have written for Textbroker for a number of years. No, they do not pay enough to support yourself, but in a pinch it was a great way to earn a few dollars. However, it seems that for quite awhile now, they have very little assignments. I just saw a review where the client paid $36 for a 500 word article, I know from experience this would pay the author around $3.00 or less. The AUTHOR! I also agree that once an author gets close to writing "too many" articles, they are reviewed and their rating is downgraded. I think this is to keep the authors from growth, and a higher rating is just a dangling carrot. In any case, Textbroker at present (and for quite awhile now) has very, very little assignments. I don't wish them to go out of business, but I have written them asking if this is the case in a roundabout way. I received a reply stating they have no control over when clients will put in a request for content. My experience with Textbroker was excellent in the beginning, now..... I can only say I wish them the best.

I can see by reading these reviews that I am not the only one. They also said that I spun content and closed my account without paying me. Stay away from them.

It's okay for a content mill, and it'll get you by in a small-dollar emergency. But beware if you intend to make a living off of it or use it as your primary source of income. Don't trust them. You might get shut down the same week your rent is due. They'll close your account after years or DECADES of service. Or they'll let their new payment processor do it, keep your money, and use the excuse that you "violated" the processor's terms. It's one thing to close someone's account. It's quite another to take their hard-earned money. I have a very high-standard work ethic, and I know I didn't do anything wrong. Read all the other reports of similar occurrences from high-income and veteran writers. It's not a coincidence. They only hit me for a little under $200, but I've seen other writers suffer greater losses. They seem to do this sort of thing to veteran writers, writers who crank out a lot of material and earn good $, or writers who qualify for bonuses. I received a couple of bonuses from them during my journey, and I guess they didn't want me to qualify for any future ones. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone, as they are untrustworthy and don't really value commitment. I spent 10 years of my life making money for them when I could have been growing my own business and clientele. Hard lesson learned.

I managed to find good writers for a reasonable price on Textbroker

يتعلق بوجود خيارات للحصول على عمل إضافي عند الحاجة. عملت في Textbroker لمدة تزيد عن 6 أشهر ، وغادرت لمدة شهرين للعمل في حملة الشركة. عندما عدت إلى حسابي ، طلب النظام التحقق من هويتي باستخدام رقم الضمان الاجتماعي الخاص بي. وأخبرني النظام أن نظامي غير صحيح ، على الرغم من أنني أعلم أنني أدخلته بشكل صحيح. لقد قمت بإرسال بريد إلكتروني إلى الدعم وأعطوني فرصة أخرى للتحقق مرة أخرى. قبل أن أفعل ذلك ، قمت بفحص المستندات القانونية الخاصة بي للتأكد من صحة ما كنت أكتبه. وكان ذلك !!!! لذلك ، لم أكن مرتبكًا فقط بشأن سبب عدم امتلاك Textbroker لسجل مناسب لمعلوماتي ... ولكن لماذا لا تقدم خيارات متعددة

Absolutely horrible company! They will close your account and steal your money! This not only happened to me, but to at least 3 other freelance writers I know who use their site. 2 of us had our accounts closed because "we submitted spun content" (which is absolutely anathema to freelance authors, and I am 100% confident no legitimate freelance writer - myself included! - would spin content - not if we hoped to keep our jobs anyway). The other 2 lost our accounts because of "new identity verification policies" that were put in place requesting a ton of personal information that the company already had on file. All accounts were closed, and they refused to pay us the money we had earned. Two of us have submitted complaints to the BBB, but the company is hiding behind automated responses and generic replies. I have no doubt that reaching out to the BBB will do no good, but at least it will show people what kind of company TB really is. After speaking with my fellow authors about it, we've come to the conclusion that we had written too much and were getting close to rewards with the company's "new reward system" and they didn't want to pay out. (All four of us were pulling down several hundred to a 1,000 dollars each week through direct clients and team work.) So they came up with bogus reasons to close our accounts. Most of us are fine with the account closing. As my friend said, "Who'd want to continue to writing for a such a dishonest company anyway?" However, between the four of us, they kept about $3,000 dollars of our money and have no intention of giving it back to us. I've also seen several people I DON'T know leaving reviews about very similar experiences (some of them are right here on this page, in fact) and they all seem to be high-level writers. None of us asked for TB to implement a new rewards system. If they didn't want to pay out, why in the world did they come up with it? Also, if we - the writers - were making hundreds to $1,000 a week individually, imagine how much TB was making off ALL of us combined. And they closed our accounts? Yeah. That was a genius move. I look for TB to be out of business soon. They're doing far too much shady stuff to far too many people (both clients and writers alike as the reviews make it seem). To me, it seems like a last-ditch effort to make as much money as possible before closing their doors for good. Won't hurt my feelings any. Companies that prey on their writers and clients need to be shut down before they steal from more people.
