Warning about Zemandi..Shades of Bubblews-updated

I occasionally wrote for Zemandi and had $10 in my account. You need $20 to cash out. My attempts to write an article some months ago were futile. When I had a query, support did not answer. Assignment times seemed too fast for the thing you were writing. I gave up and then recently thought I would try again. Emails came that I had too many assignments open. Nonsense as I had none. Updated to add a reply came to the written complaint I sent. It is unsigned, has "I" in lower case and several other grammatical mistakes. All it says is some person called Johathan was looking after the matter and they will tell him when he comes in. When a site selling writing has people using bad grammar as staff it does not bode well. I wrote a complaint and was promised a reply the next day. No reply came. I have just written on their site I am beginning to suspect fraud. Or maybe it is just severe disorganisation. Whatever it is. the fact remains. They got paid for the articles I wrote. I cannot get my share of it because I cannot reach $20 unless I write more articles. I cannot write more articles where the system keeps on telling me I have assignments open. Just wondering if yet again, a good place went bad. Shades of Bubblews (although Zemandi is a different kind of site and under, rather than overpaid.) Anyhow, for now, I would advise anyone tempted to sign up for something other than Zemandi. Disorganised? Scam? Over subscribed? Lost their way? Who knows, but here we go again with a saga. I should also say that once before everything I earned had disappeared after a break. If they take the $10 I will be registering them as a scam.

They paid a lot for us, then they forbade all the IPs from our country. From then on I do not know anything about them anymore.

@Jackalyn When a site does not get profitable. It will soon disappear.

@theend Interesting they are following what seems to me, to be a pattern when sites start to go under.

Thanks for letting us know, I think you should register then as scammers. You have saved many who could have the idea to join them.

I never heard of them but I foresee that they will be closing soon. I have seen this type of behavior at other places and they always closed. I was on Bubblews also.

Quite. If you make a payout at $20 dollars but then mess things so that nobody can earn it you get to keep an awful lot of money if you also have thousands of writers. Now, where have we all seen this kind of thing before?

I just try Access it and IP is blocked and there is warning about malware on site. I'm from Croatia.

Interesting that people are finding their IP's blocked. I just posted on their forum to see if they would reply. I avoided the word "scam" as yet, but think this company lacks both integrity and transparency at the moment. (in my opinion.) I have noticed they leap into forums to defend themselves at times, so I am hoping they will do so.

@mrki444 Whatever it is, it is common to explain.

@Jackalyn Maybe they block it because of cookie laws or GDPR.

It is my first time to hear it. Now, I am aware that I shouldn't be on this site. Thanks for the review.
