I signed up for a three day trial, and before the three days were up they had billed me for my first month. I have not tried very hard to look for work there, but I need to decide if I am canceling or not, in the next five days. So, have you had any luck with them?

I take a dim view of any company that charges up front for this sort of so-called service so I looked them up on the Rip-off Report and found this article:

Here, too, is an article I found on Associated Content discussing this company:

Be sure to keep proof of your cancellation and good luck getting a refund.

I will not try for a refund, as I went into it thinking I would look and try it out, but drannhh was a deciding factor in my canceling it. I only order online when I can use PayPal as I have always been able to cancel, or sometimes, if I tried, get a refund. Gofreelance sent me directly to PayPal to cancel, so it should be good. drannhh always has wise advice.

Thanks for the find. You probably saved a lot of people the hassle of trying to get their refunds before they signed up for this fraud site. And I hope you can get your money back if you get charged

It sounds like you might want to be real careful with them.
I have done very well with Shaklee. I am growing a nice size residual income and I love the products and I love the way they are partnered with alot of charities..I hope you can find what you are looking for but remember to succeed you have to find a good company and stay consistant and don't give up..Know from day in that you WILL succeed and never stop thinking that way.

I will think about Shaklee, I have to have enough time to build a business. Some financial things will be changing in May.

I have wondered about them too, I am going to keep an eye on this discussion to see if you get your answer. I did here online something about it being hard to cancel with them and to stop them from charging your credit card after cancelling. Becareful with that. Good luck.

I paid with PayPal. No problem canceling. Do not go there,Polly. I hear Odesk is a good place to go.
