I was really hoping to be respected for my time and effort
Many issues had been occurring on this Flip App belonging to Humans. Inc . Among them they state that if a customer refers the site and the referral produces earnings both parts get 30.00. I made two positive referrals and only knew the name of one person. They had me contact that person ( who had already received her 30.00 to have her contact them in order for them to investigate.) They did and found that they owed me the referral fee, which they said would be posted to my account. It wasn’t so I kept texting them asking when that amount would be given. I then received an email from them accusing me of violating a guideline without specifics or an explanation. I additionally had reviewed multiple times and had Flip Cash in my account that I worked for. They then BLOCKED me from accessing the App and my account, so I can not retrieve my rightful money earned, the 30 they owed me or delete sensitive and private information that I do not want getting into a hackers hands ( which I heard has happened from reviews posted here). Their ratings are not good but I initially trusted them. Sadly they started to change their guidelines , such as amounts needed to be spent for free gifts). I have written them multiple emails. It seems that this company has done the same to a number of other reviewers . Many who are reviewing truthfully and even being contacted by the Cosmetic companies thanking them for their reviews . I had two companies reach out to me in appreciation. If they can do this to regular hard working customers who are helping them succeed, I can’t imagine what else can be going on that we are not aware of . I honestly reviewed all my bought products and I researched ingredients etc in order to give quality reviews. Some products came damaged but they helped replace them. I never returned any product even when some looked as if they were used.I received a great Lip Plumper by CosRX that when opened had red lipstick mixed into it, as if used. I took top layer off and kept product. The Transparency is missing from a company that has a great concept but lacks in treating their customers with respect , especially when we are regular everyday folks. Some of their reviewers recruit in other platforms ( like Instagram)and do not identify themselves as connected to the company in any other way but customers like us. Sadly on other platforms they DO show their relationship with the company , so initially every new customer thinks everyone is a regular reviewer with no personal connection to Flip. They describe they platform as regular people giving honest reviews, which I did as many others.Everything should be told to consumers. I have screenshots of every communication because they debated so many issues. I hope they resolve these issues and allow customers to retrieve their earnings and manage the information they shared on this site. It started out a great experience but when we don’t produce enough, it just seemed like things changed. Reviewers are good hard working people! They give their time, honest reviews and spend 100s of dollars and should have been shown more consideration and respect. I would advise anyone thinking of starting this to not provide personal information, to read guidelines everyday and screenshot everything, or simply buy products directly from these fine companies, that often offer great sales. For me, this has been an incredibly stressful experience, especially since I am not being given my earnings and not being permitted to delete sensitive information that belongs to ME.
