Freelance Home Writers -freelancehomewriters.com Initial $2.95 trial - no mention of a $49.95 membership fee deducted from your credit card 7 days later and no way of contacting the company to get your "100% money back" guarantee. Not happy to be ripped off! Miami, Florida Internet

If you look at other similar sites that list Freelance Writing jobs you will see that even if they don't state it outright, you are almost always bidding on a job. I have been a member for about 4 months now and am satisfied with thier service. They provide exactly what they say on thier website and charge you what they advise as well. You pay your fee, set up your profile and then you pick jobs you would be willing to do and say how much you are willing to do them for. I have yet to find any company that is looking for freelance anything that is going to take the first person that comes along. If you don't like that fact that it isn't a "I like that one, its mine" situtation you should really find something better to do with your time than freelance. NOTHING is guaranteed in the world of freelance. You could even be offered a job and then turned down after you submit your work due to them no liking what you did. As long as they don't use it, its legal.

What is meant by bidding for writing jobs? Looking at the website, I did notice the 47$ MONTHLY charge NOT one time charge. That I was ok with, considering the potential earnings. There was however, NO MENTION of having to bid for writing assignments. What is the deal with that?

Thanks,

I'm sorry to say that I am a little tired of seeing so many people post this company as a rip-off. The "$47" dollars that they charge you (not 49.95) is clearly stated right on the front page before you even sign up. it says it's 2.95 for the trial then they will charge you the 47 dollars. This site does exactly what it says it does, it helps you to find freelance writing assignments and makes it phenomenally easy to do so by having a unique job search engine. Instead of going through all the different websites out there to look for freelance writing jobs, it literally posts on one page all of the jobs available in your desired category. I'm very happy to pay the 47 dollar initial fee (even though I only started a few weeks ago )) because i have already created my profile and am bidding on several writing jobs, and I feel confident that I will be able to make that money back and then some in no-time. Just because you are a person who sees one thing on the internet and then jumps in on it without reading the fine details or the small print, doesn't give you the right to butcher the credibility of a legitimate organization. Everything having to do with Freelance home writers is explained up front and honestly. I encourage anybody who is interested in making some money doing what you love , writing, definitely give it a shot, take the trial, read the awesome information, see if you have what it takes and stick with it, or decide within a week that you're not going to do it and cancel so that you aren't charged anything more. no harm no foul. hope this information helps somebody.

I have the same problems as the persons who filed the above reports. The only contact I got back is from Gabby, but upon replying, my mail gets returned with deamon delayed failures.I left numerous mails on their site. I tried different internet services with superfast speed. I tried numerous email addresses in which I mentioned my username, email address and even my password. The only respons I got from these people was my login name and password.

I gave all my contact information upon registration. I have deadlines to cancel membership, but how do you get hold of this company if you cant get hold of them? Not even by tellephone?

I will be glad if these people will somehow make communication with them possible, because if the deadline past, you can't get your money back if you want to cancel during the free trail. In the terms and conditions it is stated that you pay a fee per month, now they have dedecuted a fee per week!

This is really a problem.
