I just wanted to say that I worked for this company for about 2 months, I didn't really get on that much , but when I did I was working as a guide, I would work for about 2 to three hours at a time, they actually only pay 2 cents a question, and I maid all together 80.00 dollars before they fired me due to not being on there enough, I printed out all my quality reports and after each question I answered there was always a good 100% mark showing, so they can't say my questions were being answered wrong, However I tried to log in one day and it would not allow me to get into my profile, so I emailed them, I got an email back the same day by a rude lady who had no nettiquette at all telling me I was permanently terminated because of my quantity of work, This is all fine, however, when I emailed back that I wanted my money, since I did work hours to make it, they have never emailed me back, I emailed 4 times all together and still no reply!!I am super pissed, that they can do this to people and get away with it, and if I was rich, I would own they company!!!!I intend to tell the world about them, I will blog, Use my facebook and any other means to do so , until I get my 80.00 dollars, It may not seem like much, but imagine 2 cents a question, I was on there hours!!!!!I do have direct deposit, and if they try to say that it doesn't work , then there full of it because my school checks get deposited on there all the time.
If anyone knows of a good work at home job, that doesn't rip you off please let me know.

#4 UPDATE EX-employee responds
ChaCha is not a good job

You are better off without them! I worked as a Guide with ChaCha for 2 years. I started back in 2008 when the pay was 20 cents flat per question answered. During the first year I was there, the pay was cut three times. I stayed there another year hoping they would offer better wages to their dedicated Guides. I had top quality answers, my QA rating was very high. And the thanks I got? Having my pay cut time after time. It got to the point where I was barely making $2 an hour and I left. ChaCha is only good as a hobby because the pay is a joke.

More to the story

I'm going to have to say that there has to be more to the story. I've been a guide for ChaCha for almost 3 years and in that time I've been inactive for nearly 12 months and my account was never terminated.
I would say that you either were gaming the system in some way or your quality wasn't as good as you thought. As far as your money goes, if you are rightfully owed it (meaning you didn't cheat the system to earn it) you should be receiving it as a check in the mail within the next month or so.
ChaCha is legit if you make sure you take pride in your work. There are tons of Guides making money from it that have no problems. Good luck to you in your next adventure.

Um... What?? Why would you want to own that company? I could think of a million other things I'd rather do with my money if I were rich.

Be careful

- Be careful with this. There are a few legitimate "work at home" jobs. But the number of "good" jobs that don't rip you off are probably outnumbered 1000-1 by the ones that are scams. So the odds of you getting ripped off is very high.
Any legitimate "work at home" job is going to pay a small amount per job, such as your 2 Cents per question. Any job that offers huge hourly rates are going to be a scam.
In addition
- Do not cash a check from anyone you don't know. Especially if they ask you to cash it and send them any money back. It does not matter what the reason is that they give you. These are probably counterfeit or stolen checks and when they come back as bad you will be responsible to pay back the bank.
- Do not send anyone any money in advance to guarantee or apply for a job.
Then of course remember if it sounds to good to be true..it probably is.
