Terrible platform.. dehumanizing

I am sharing this review regarding my experience on Project 683 (English locale), where I completed a large volume of work but faced serious issues with task accounting and compensation. I completed a total of 350 tasks on this project. This included 175 tasks in the first batch and another 175 tasks in a revert/re-batch phase. However, out of the second batch, only 11 tasks appear to have been properly attributed in the system. Despite completing all 350 tasks, I have only been paid for approximately 70–75 tasks, which is a significant and unexplained discrepancy. Another major concern is the application of a 10-minute cap on task time. The communicated Average Handling Time (AHT) for this project was 15–20 minutes. At no point was it stated that task duration would be capped at 10 minutes. In previous projects I have worked on, any such capping policy was always clearly communicated in advance. In this case, no such communication was provided, yet the cap appears to have been applied after the fact. This is especially problematic because the tasks themselves were complex. Many required handling multiple speakers (3–4 voices), overlapping audio, detailed segmentation, repeated playback of very short audio fragments, and careful tagging to ensure accurate verbatim transcription. These were not simple tasks and often required significant time and attention per task. Based on my own tracking, I spent approximately 90–100 hours completing this work. The current payment does not reflect this effort or the actual workload involved. I also want to highlight that I previously raised concerns during the project through support channels and issue trackers, but the matter was not properly addressed. Additionally, communication throughout the project was inconsistent, with limited clarity and no centralized coordination channel. From the data available to me, I can see that between 24th and 25th March, I completed 175 tasks in batch 2. The first batch of 175 tasks is no longer visible in the system history, likely due to limited retention of records. However, both batches together account for the 350 tasks I completed Overall, the core issues are: * Significant mismatch between completed tasks and paid tasks * Application of an uncommunicated 10-minute cap * Lack of clarity and consistency in communication * Lack of proper verification of task history I am requesting a proper review of my case, verification of full task history, and fair compensation based on the originally communicated AHT and actual work performed. I hope this matter is resolved fairly and transparently.

I had a disappointing experience with OneForma regarding account handling and support. My account was suddenly marked inactive due to what appears to be a system error. I had only switched from my mobile device to my PC while reviewing project guidelines for better clarity, and this was flagged as suspicious activity. I was continuously working on the LightSpeed and Isaac projects, which makes this situation even more frustrating. I do want to acknowledge that payments and the PO process have been smooth and reliable, which is a positive aspect of the platform. Additionally, the Instagram support team was responsive and replied within 2–3 days. However, the review team’s lack of communication has been extremely disappointing. I have sent multiple emails and follow-ups over the past month regarding my appeal (Case ID: CAS-217521-Z8L5T5), but have received no response at all. I sincerely hope the company improves its review and support process, and I would appreciate any assistance in reviewing my case and helping me get my account reactivated. Thank you.

I worked on OneForma / Centific Cherry Opal / Lighthouse-related production tasks and experienced serious payment reconciliation issues across multiple cycles. For 16/02/2026–14/03/2026, my own work records totaled 787.27 USD, while the PO reflected only 116.49 USD. I disputed that PO, and no payment was received for that disputed period. For 15/03/2026–14/04/2026, my own work records totaled 685.31 USD. Invoice #100094016 totaled 326.87 USD, but it included the previous disputed 116.49 USD PO, so the current-cycle amount reflected was only 210.38 USD. I contacted payment support, project contacts, and OneForma general contact multiple times, and disputed all POs in invoice #100094016. I have still not received a full date-by-date reconciliation explaining the discrepancy. My advice to other contributors: keep your own daily work log, screenshot timers and POs, and do not rely only on platform dashboard totals. Be very careful before investing many hours if payment reconciliation is unclear.

I am publicly raising a serious unresolved payment and PO dispute with OneForma / Centific after months of ignored follow-ups. I worked on two projects: MSP-689 Urdu locale and MSPO-683 English locale. For MSP-689, I completed work in November 2025 and received the PO at the end of February 2026. The PO had serious issues, so I disputed it. The client claimed that I completed 14 tasks in less than one minute, which is practically impossible because each task required image generation, prompt review, questionnaire completion, and written comments. The client’s own average handling time was 5.5 minutes per task. Before the PO was uploaded, I had already informed the project manager, Diptiranjan Jena, about the issue. I was assured that the matter would be discussed with the client before uploading the PO. However, the PO was still uploaded without resolving my dispute. More than two months have now passed, and I still have not received a revised PO or a proper explanation. For MSPO-683 English locale, I completed around 262 tasks, but I have only been paid for 151 tasks. The project’s average handling time was 15 to 20 minutes per task as conveyed by my agency (Oneforma/Centific), and many tasks required even more time due to multiple speakers, overlapping audio, multiple segments, and detailed review requirements. The PO/payment data shows only around 21 paid hours, while I personally tracked more than 70 to 80 hours of work. The client platform itself had an inactivity pause feature, meaning task time should have been tracked fairly. Yet the data now shows a maximum tracked time of around 10.1 minutes per checked task, even though many tasks took 20 to 30 minutes. This strongly suggests that the client-provided task-time data is flawed or incomplete. There was also a rework issue. At the time rework was communicated, only 151 tasks had been checked, and only 17 had rework. My account was locked during that period, and I was already in contact with support about the account issue. By the time my account was restored, the rework had already been completed by someone else. This should not be used as a reason to deny payment for completed work. Sayeed Mac was the project manager for MSPO-683, but despite repeated attempts to get clarity, the response has been extremely poor and the issue remains unresolved. I have contacted project managers, team members, and support. Support has escalated the case, but I still have not received a fair resolution, revised PO, or clear breakdown of payable tasks and hours. This is not a small issue. I spent more than 70 to 80 hours working honestly and carefully, but I have only been paid for around 21 hours. That is unacceptable. I am requesting OneForma / Centific to urgently provide: 1) A revised PO for MSP-689 Urdu locale. 2) A full review of all 262 tasks completed for MSPO-683 English locale. 3) A correction of the flawed task-time data. 4) A written explanation of how payable hours and payable tasks were calculated. 5) Fair compensation for the actual work completed. Freelancers and contributors deserve transparency, timely communication, and fair payment. Platforms cannot expect workers to follow strict guidelines and deadlines while leaving payment disputes unresolved for months. I hope OneForma / Centific resolves this professionally and fairly. Until then, I feel it is important to speak up so other contributors are aware of these payment and communication issues.

Was invited to a project and was going through the boarding process. I've spent time mastering the guidelines, but I had issues logging in, so I could not proceed further. I've contacted the project leaders and it took ages to get a reply. Sometimes I had to send a reminder. All in all it took over a month before I was told the project batch had already finished and I'm left with an unrestored account. I feel like I wasted time & energy and until this day I still haven't got an answer back on my request if the account could still get restored. Bit of a turn off to work on any future projects.

Support takes time to answer but when they answer it is satisfactory. It is hard to get into a new project even if it shows that I have been Hired in the project. The system constantly says that my account has been flagged as suspicious but when I'm checking their help center to try to find the reason, none of the ones listed applies to me.

It is a complete scam and fraud. I filled out and completed many certifications with respect to jobs, and my application always went under review. In this way, I had 5 applications under review. When on the next morning I open it to see the status of my applications, it's all gone. The system starts saying no jobs are available. IT IS ALL FRAUD AND A SCAM...
