VocalReviews of vocal.media

It a great way to get started, to share with a writing community. Challenges are like prompts, but with a chance to win some money!

I had issues with the promo code and I emailed in about several times and finally someone got back with me. They said they could cancel my subscription and refund me so I could redo my page and apply the code. Once I agreed responding to the email they stopped reaponding to me. So the first two months that were supposed to be 4.99 I had to pay 9.99 and the adjustment was nevet made and I canceled my account.

A lot of the negative reviews about vocal come from the fact you have to subscribe monthly. Since writers can get tips and Enter contests multiple times during a contest, They have a fee. Lots of platforms have fees to use them. I am not sure how their accuracy is for reads but the contests are not won by how many reads you have, they are judged by a panel. Vocal increases your creativity. It is a really good platform for writers to be challenged, and to keep their skill strong and it opens up the chance to read what other people are doing.

was curious when i saw you could win $20,000 for writing a short story, as i'm a very creative person. I read the all the info- and it said you have to subscribe to voice+ to participate, as well as have a "stripe" account active to receive prizes. so i headed to stripe to set up an account and see about getting into this. went through the process with stripe- it seemed very business oriented, not just for getting a payment. i read their VERY long user agreement, detailing all the in's and out's of sending invoices- chargind peoples cards, etc - all geared towards small-mid sized businesses, not individuals just trying to get a payment from a writing site. I thought this was kind of shady,,surely there would be some better ways to get a payout then make a business account for a service ment for companies/businesses to issue invoices and receive payments for goods. .. that made me google and led me to this site. i have to say, i dont like the smell of things. this was a waste of a couple hours of my life... and please- don't take this as an example of my writing skills- it's 3:47 am now :(

Vocal is okay for me as an east coast refugee.

Long story short, They reel you in, force you to $ub$cribe in order to enter their story-writing challenges, they make everything impossible from there on, they store your bank details and don't let you delete them which is illegal - I now have to cancel that card. And to top it all off, there is no 'Deactivate/delete my account' - you have to email them and hope they'll comply. Failure to do so will have them heavily investigated.

My first article was approved. My second article was rejected by the review team because it contained "religion", because I mentioned God and touched on faith and spirituality for the purpose of moral support. Why can't I have the freedom to write about what I choose? There was no harm in my article, no prejudice, nothing of the sort. I have not and won't use this since and, no, there is not any money in this, truly.

They tricked me into signing up for their monthly service I was supposed to get a 30 day free trial but the trial never started it just took the 10$ off of my card I thought I was signing up for a trial this site is real scammy And I would not recommend it to anyone. Never ever !!!!!!
