Appen Was Wrong On 2 Counts I set up a profile at Appen. It informed me that it detected a VPN that had to be disconnected before I could see any tasks. I get my Internet service through my telephone company. No VPN on any device in my house. When I tried to log in one more time, my password didn't work. I tried to reset my password. The site said my account had been disabled. I contacted customer support, which informed me that I had violated community standards. I read their community standards. I violated none of them. I took a screenshot of an Internet speed test, which showed my telephone company as my Internet provider. I sent it to the customer service agent to prove that Appen had been wrong. If Appen got 2 important pieces of information wrong about me, what else are they getting wrong?

Did their test but now their asking for… Did their test but now their asking for certificates but that wasn't what they wanted not sure why they are asking for certificates. Bait and switch I guess I will find something else to do. Unless you have degrees and certificates in everything I say skip. The tasks that I signup for shouldn't even need certificate for.

Awful First Time Experience I recently tried to apply for a Ads Quality Rater job through Appen and had trouble accessing my application after signing up. When I tried to complete other tasks, I was told to remove my VPN which I don't have installed on my computer. I then tried to contact customer support for help, yet today I was given a "Access Denied" message and can no longer access my dashboard, but I continue to see email updates. I do not recommend signing up to this company, find work elsewhere.

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 Full of outdated projects that are not accepting anymore but their applications are still open!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!
