GBAn Unfortunate Company Songtrust can best be described as an unfortunate company. There are plenty of "resources" out there hell bent on taking advantage of artists. I don't believe Songtrust does this intentionally or by design; it does so via neglect, poor management and woeful understaffing. You will wait for months on end to receive replies to customer service inquiries and when those replies come they will either be incomplete (at best) or lack of any good information at all. You will wait years on end for your tracks to be fully processed with PROs. You will be subject to a terrible user interface and a paltry website that does not function smoothly. What does function very well, however - is the collection of your sign up fee. That transaction will go very quickly and without incident. Perhaps the future will hold some restructuring for this company and it can be a useful entity for artists but as of now, I'd say avoid Songtrust. Save your money and save yourself some grief.

I wouldn't trust Songtrust with my data - they would probably sell it on. I signed up in good faith and now they have access to my label artists work and will continue to collect without paying anything back . Avoid this shabby nasty little company . 😱

GBDespite them using the success of our… Despite Songtrst using the success of our track to market Songtrust on social media (we had a number one in the USA), we have not had a reply for well over 6 weeks about the tax docmentss being ignored, they ignore Twitter and Instagram messages (they follow me on both so they can see my messages). My tax document has sat doing nothing for over 2 months, and have not received my last payment either. Was also contacting them to suggest a wider catalogue deal but seems they don't want my business. What's the point in such an excellent product if you ignore your customers? I'm having to post here to try and get someone to please get in touch.

MYlacking human touch in customer support and hard to solve issue update 18 May 2023 1. tax issue had been solved, you just need to make sure read every country tax number since they use automatic system detection, 2. still waiting for internal resolve for few songs affected songtrust, i truly want you to grow. but your support is truly lacking big. there's been collab songs with mispayment. songtrust takes 50% of what's already been split from PRO and other royalty collection, and its an ongoing problem, the song "after the rain" itself had generated more than 10 mill streams on spotify alone. please correct this mispayment asap and pay what is due to me and the collaborators. I now had issue with tax form status hasn't changed from "submitted" to "reviewed", it has been 3 weeks since i submit & ended up skipped my latest payment. (i think there might be an error in the tax form submission system) hope u guys able to improve the system

GBWORST COMPANY EVER! DO NOT TRUST! Songtrust promised us (3 producer/composer team) back royalties for our streaming catalog upwards of $30k when we signed up around 3 years ago. Since we signed up we received a few hundred $$ and every way of contacting them, direct email, support ticket, facebook etc...remains unanswered. We received a couple of apologetic emails that they would get back to us shortly - never happened - completely ghosting us for 3 solid years. Absolutely unbelievable and terrible company. The problem is, we lost 3 years of collecting these back royalties and they may be lost forever. STAY AWAY!
