The same thing happened to me Appen USA… The same thing happened to me Appen USA the hiring manager interviewed via Skype said they supply an iMacPro desktop and said that need to pay for the software the gets installed, pay for the shipping, and then customs wanted more money. I never recieved the computer, was told that it got damaged during shipping and they actually wanted me to pay for another. I bitched a lot. Never got resolved and never got my money back either. I screenshot all text messages & saved any email communications, and the phone # goes to a automated answering device and never called back.

Forget about Appen, Get a real job! Poor support! Poor website! Full of outdated projects that are not accepting anymore but their applications are still open! So you can waste your time applying for qualifications (1-3h each) and never hear back from them. Pay rate is lower than ANY real job out there. So if you need some money go get a real job or learn some skills and get a (web design/ graphics) remote job. Appen has not even finished reviewing my packages after 6 months!

Stay away from this company Stay away from this company. Very untrustworthy. They trick into earning well etc. but pay almost nothing in the end. Any other job would be better than this.

Spam from Appen on Job listings I have not tried Appen, but they are spamming job listings (2022). Users are paid for referrals, which explains why they post so many ads. They earn money if you sign up through their referral link... Unfortunately this is causing too much spam wasting others' time.

Company going bankrupt Didn't even get to the point of being able to do any work for them. Applied for 20+ projects, all just sitting at the next stage and not been accepted yet still getting emails to ask me to apply for them... Seems as though Appen is going under, would explain why people aren't being paid and why people aren't being accepted for projects.
