Lo and behold, yet another customer who has had to prove their identity and address from a frozen account.

I provided this to them and never heard back.

Luckily for me, I blacked out my identification number, signature, the ID code number, and substantially blurred my photo. So, with 3,000 points now in limbo, and one offer I am waiting over THREE MONTHS to credit, after having provided them verification of completion (with the usual schtick of "we don't control crediting of offers"). I cannot fathom Google taking over 90 days to verify that an offer was completed, and as I had provided the confirmation email, screenshots of the app being downloaded and in use, and verification of having been charged for using the app, still no credit. This is a scam.

So many people with the same issues, identical issues in fact, and always having the same problem. I am tired of kissing their a*s and "eating 'pie' " to get even an ounce of help from them. I'm reporting them to the BBB. I can't believe they have a positive rating there.

At 11:39AM PDT on 12/23/15, I received a support message from these people stating that I failed to mention how my ID is fake/photoshopped. Ha! What makes this so hilarious is that they allow you to hide or distort infomration such as your ID # and they state that such information is not needed nor wanted, but then accuse you of photoshopping the photo.  Can't do one without the other; and, if you put pieces of paper over that information, it will make it appear as if it was photoshopped anyway. So no mater what you are in a losing game.

I refuse to have them have such information as my signature and ID number. Frankly, if Sony, banks, Target, the federal OPM office, medical centers/schools like UCLA and USC, TMobile, CVS, the IRS, and Anthem/BlueCross can be hacked, so can measly little old instagc. (I don't want to hear the whole "we have secure servers" schtick -- so did all of the places that were hacked this year alone, so instagc is no different. If the IRS can be hacked, instagc can, period. I agreed to only provide my identification if this information can be blacked out or otherwise obscured.  They agreed. Now they say it was photoshopped. As a result, I have to say that they may want to steal my identity.

InstaGC is not worth a turd in a punch bowl, honestly.

Lesson: Don't send them an identification when they request it. No matter what. It's not worth the plethora of aggravation that follows.

Lesson 2: InstaGC sucks! Period.

They do. They are not worth the anxiolysis that comes with you begging and pleading with them.

Lesson 3: They bully people. They try and get all Big-Bad-Wolf-Huff-And-Puff-And-Blow-Your-House-Down. They try to intimidate their users. Go with some other company like Swagbucks that actually RESPECTS their people.

Lesson 4: If they want respect, they better d**n well give it. Otherwise, they can kick the dirt they will be burying themselves in with all of these consumer complaints.

Lesson 5: If this many people all complain about the same identical things, and the same identical and disparate treatment, it MUST be true.  I have never been one for the mob reasoning; this proves me wrong.

Since they want to be the bully in a schoolyard, I will in full disclosure, state that I went off on them in response, mostly to their "you're lucky we even allow you to participate after all this," and meeting them with equal disrespect and disdain as given me, demanding they cancel the account. This is not worth $30.
