Reviewstream.com is a company that claims it will pay reviewers to review products. The reviewer can review whatever product they want. Reviewstream.com will pay reviewers $2.50 for their reviews. I read about the company some reports say people were paid $350 and some said that they did not get paid; all of their reviews were rejected. I decided to give it a try. I submitted two reviews to see how it would go then I submitted another six to let the company know that I want to do this and I was not in it for a quick buck.
I check the website and all of my reviews were in queue except one of the originally submitted reviews. The date listed for the company to read and post my reviews was three days beyond the 72 hour timeline the company has listed on their site as being the time they will buy or not buy my reviews. I emailed the company saying that one of my reviews was missing and that the timeline is beyond the 72 hour schedule. The company responded with a very unprofessional tone and said that all my reviews that they had was in queue. I also included the copy of the time I submitted my review with the email but still the company claimed they did not have my review.
I resubmitted the review again along with three additional one. They company paid me $2.50 for one and rejected four of them, six still in queue. I submitted more reviews the closer the post date came, the more reviews were rejected. The reviews were rejected with a number that the stated the reviews would be excepted at the bulk rate. The company pays a bulk rate of .50. I emailed the company again telling them that I had eight rejected, twelve in queue with one paid at the $2.50 rate. I said by logic the twelve in queue should be paid at the rate of $2.50 since they want my reviews just that they want to pay me at the bulk rate.
This company is a scam they will take reviews but they only want to pay reviewers the bulk rate. I said to them I was not submitting bulk rate reviews. The company emailed me back and said that my account was closed and that my writing was bad. I replied, I read some of the reviews on their site and grammar was poor, I also told them they were unprofessional and I understand why the reviews on the site are bad because they could not write good English.
This company do not want reviewers asking questions, they also do not want to pay reviewers the of $2.50 they want to steal reviews at the rate of .50. This company is a scam it not in the making because they have been doing it for years. If reviewers ask questions they take the unprofessional way of dealing with them by closing the/their account.
