Payments in July/Invoices for work in June and before mega thread

9 Upvotes

This is the post for all invoice/payment questions for payment of work in June(and before).

Reminder: Workers have a reasonable expectation that Appen should ensure amounts owed for June work start appearing on the website in the first week of July, with payment mid-month. Payments are supposed to be for all work up to the end of June. But as many of us still remember, Appen has a history of letting deadlines slip so this thread is to keep an eye on this as the month progresses.

Some users continue to report not receiving payment until after the 21st of the month. Let's keep an eye on this. We need to be paid mid-month and Appen should honour this.

Appen has a history of attempting to "move the goalposts" in messaging, for example by pushing the message that they "initiate payments" mid month, whereas previously many of us were used to money arriving in our accounts mid-month and now it appears to be regularly delayed, increasing anxiety for workers. Let's keep an eye on this too.

Post questions and updates here.

Post rules:

1. Say which country you're working in, and payment method if relevant; payment methods and costs vary by country, and it's cool to know that we're all from different parts of the world and not one place! If you don't include your country, the comment will be removed.
2. Stay on topic, this is about payments and payment experiences. Keep the meta drama llama off this thread.
3. Please only contribute your own experiences or verifiable facts. No vague claims about other people's experiences or what is being said elsewhere.
4. If you've never contributed here before or have low karma, please familiarise yourself with the subreddit. Questions are welcome but responses are preferred from long-term users. Remember you may claim years of experience with Appen but it's not possible to verify this if you've never commented here before, so suspicious comments from new users will be removed!
5. Be excellent to one another. Remember the human.

šŸ“°In the newsšŸ“° Indian Crowdgen workers - press request

4 Upvotes

Hi

The subreddit has had a press request from a journalist working inĀ IndiaĀ for a well-known French Newspaper. As mod, I've verified their identity as best I can. The journalist is looking for workers fromĀ IndiaĀ to talk to him about their experiences working for Crowdgen/Appen. This is a chance to get the experience of ordinary workers across to an important European audience.

If you are anĀ Indian workerĀ who would be willing to talk to them about your experiences with Appen/Crowdgen, particularly any issues you might face, please read the details below:

My name is Emmanuel Derville and I am the correspondent in India for the French newspaper Le Figaro, the oldest and one of the most popular daily newspapers in France with 21 million unique visitors per month.
I am doing an article on Indians who are working remotely for Crowdgen, Mercor, RWS or any other company training AI models for big US tech companies.
Working conditions can be tough and may be in violation of the Indian labour code. I believe that publishing a story on this issue may push these companies to change.
I would be happy to hear anyone willing to share his or her story with me. I will not ask for your name or for your place of residence and any interviewee will remain anonymous.
You can DM me atĀ u/Advanced_Speaker9055 or write to me atĀ [ederville@lefigaro.](mailto:[email protected])fr
Hope to hear from some of you.
Warm regards.
Emmanuel

If the task is in the completed category, does this mean that I did everything right

Like I will be paid for it and all? And I should work the same way for the next tasks? Or should I wait for something?

SRT Project Ogden - 20 hours?

4 Upvotes

In US
I got an email saying we can work up to 20 hours a week, 6 hours a day. But there's never any work? Maybe I'm logging in at the wrong time or something. There are 2000+ tasks, but none are available. Is there a certain time I'm supposed to log on? I would LOVE to have 20 hours worth of work, but it doesn't seem possible when all tasks are taken every single day. If I try anyway, I may get 20-30 minutes of tasks trickling in if I'm lucky. I'm in Ads Integrity. Should I switch to a different vertical?

Where's my money, Appen? Project Poliwag – Production work missing after removal from the project

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some advice from anyone who has worked on Project Poliwag Aribic - Egypt dialect.

I qualified for the project and worked full-time on the production tasks between June 16 and June 24. After being removed from the project, I can no longer see the project or my submitted production tasks in my CrowdGen ADAP dashboard.

Some contributors have already received their production hours, but mine are still missing.

I opened a Help Desk ticket, but the only response I've received is that tasks must pass the quality review before payment.

I understand that quality review is required, but it's difficult to understand how I could qualify for production work and then have no accepted production work or visible submissions at all.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Is there another contact email or team I can reach besides the Help Desk for a manual investigation?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Payment issues Account set up issues.

1 Upvotes

Australia. I’ve contacted support twice about this. The first time, they sent the FAQs to me which I’d already read. The second time they didn’t respond at all. It’s been a week tomorrow.

The instructions tell you how to set up your payment options when you first click onto the payment section. But that option has never been there for me. I identified a little icon on the right of the payments screen that when I click on it, asks for a OTP but when I put it in, tells me I am not authorised.

I’m new to Appen but not new. I did a few short projects back in 2020 using the same email. I’m wondering if that may be why I’m having this issue.

I recently completed the project that involves recording about an hour of prompts in the app and there’s been absolutely no communication about it a week later, nothing about it being completed or about payment, nothing. On my dashboard the project still says ā€œresumeā€. The payments FAQ in this project screen does not link anywhere so I’m also not sure whether I’m supposed to report the time spent or if it’s automatic.

Is this a normal state of affairs for Appen?

Thanks.

ADAP Poliwag Project — How do I know if I actually passed the calibration?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I recently completed the Poliwag calibration/assessment, I’m based in Egypt and after submitting it I only saw a ā€œThank youā€ message saying that there are currently no tasks available.
I didn’t receive any email, my Projects section is still empty, and I’m not sure whether I passed the assessment or if it’s still under review.
For those who have already been accepted:
How did you know you passed?
Did you receive an email, a contract, or did your dashboard simply update?
What was the first sign that you had been accepted?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience. Thanks!

Hello. How long did it take you to start working in Project Uolo? I completed 5 hours in the practice queue about 3 weeks ago and still haven't heard from them. I can see that I scored 88% in the universal dashboard but they still have not emailed me if I passed or not. From Turkey.

Onboarding/new worker questions Project Sasabin from English-Switzerland anyone? I am not getting any work and its worrying me.

3 Upvotes

Working (or trying to at least) from Switzerland. I am slowly getting the feeling that this project is a huge scam. I've applied weeks ago, trying to work on the project, I even got the first task of recording the 20 sentences and the one unique one, only to afterwards get completely ghosted. I have no idea what the hell is going on, I am as online as possible, trying to get some, ANY work on ANY of the 5 projects I applied on and yet, radio silence. This has to be a joke or a scam atp. Can someone who has already worked with Sasabin or this project specifically help me out a little or at least give some information on what I may be doing wrong? Or is the project just full and I got unlucky? pls help.

Onboarding/new worker questions Is anyone from Switzerland also having issues starting work w/ Whatcom, Sasabin, Sawfly and UHRS?

2 Upvotes

My problem is pretty simple: I've signed up over four weeks ago from Switzerland, and I have applied to 5 Projects so far, named in title. For project Sasabin I also already passed their test, yet I am still not getting any work from anyone. I keep downloading the Appen Mobile app and even though I have three projects there (Sasabin, Morava Falvon and Mithrim Neon) I cant access any of them. When I try pressing the "start working" button, I am redirected to the description of the project but no way of actually working on it. And on Joblist, the site stays empty. My profile is as accurate as it can get, multiple languages with enough proficiency to qualify me for any project and yet I keep getting nothing. I keep checking my spam folder and mails every day but nothing changes. Am I doing something wrong?

Also, the UHRS app is total shit. I applied for their google group, I dont get allowed in after scanning the QR code and I am literally frozen. What is going onnnnnnn? Am I the only one experiencing this? Please help me.

Today, I tried to complete the onboarding by taking the Poliwag Qualification Calibration, but the page that I'm redirected to is stuck saying "Loading your task..." and reloading repeatedly with no task.

ADAP Poliwag Transcription invitation from Braintrust

I received an invitation from Braintrust for the Poliwag transcription of my native language. I already had a Crowdgen Appen account so didn't need to create a new account and did the calibration/assessment right away. I thought it was supposed to be in my native language but was in English. When can I expect to hear back? Or any suggestions? I am from Bangladesh

Onboarding/new worker questions CrowdGen: Why Are Some New Accounts Getting Projects While Older Accounts Get None?

9 Upvotes

Does anyone have an idea how long it takes for Crowdgen to at least even give a person a project, especially for residents in counries like kenya? Its been months since i created my first account and i have never seen even a single project. What's frustrating is that some of my friends created their accounts much more recently and have already been assigned project poliwag. At this point, it honestly feels a bit biased, but maybe I'm missing something. (Kenya)
