Hi mga sis! I need to ask something. May isang buyer kasi ako na nakakainis and unreasonable, super effort ako sa paggawa ng task tapos sasabihin ba naman na disappointed sa gawa ko, blah blah. So gusto ko na i-end yung task. Ang concern ko lang, makakapagiwan ba sha sakin ng rating and feedback? Kasi I'm sure mababa yung bibigay nya sakin if ever, eh unfair naman kasi I worked hard talaga, di ko alam kung ano ba gusto nyang output. So gusto ko sana i-end na wala ng way na magbigay sha ng rating and feedback sakin, pwede ba yun? Hourly task pala to by the way. May nareceive nako na payment last week. Kahit hindi ko na makuha yung payment sa hours that I worked this week ok lang, I just want to end the task ng hindi nya ko maunahan ifire.

Diba pwedeng magrefund ng earnings para mawala sa history ko yung assignment? If I do that, will the assignment be deleted from my history immediately? Or may chance na hindi tanggapin ng buyer yung refund, tapos magrereflect parin sa history ko yung assignment, with the feedback and rating? And kelangan ba full refund ang gawin ko for the assignment and feedback to be hidden from my history, or kahit partial lang?

Thanks in advance!

^pwede mong hide ang feedback nya.

@purplemoon

Ang alam ko, once you get paid by the buyer, especially if hourly rate, when he gives you feedback, it will reflect in your feedback history and feedback rate.  Even if you hide the feedback rating, hindi nga nakikita what he said about your performance, pero it will still affect your rating.  I'm not so sure if you give a refund, pero i think his feedback will still affect your rating, not sure though.

Ang good news is, if maliit pa lang na-earn mo from this buyer and you've had buyers that gave you good feedback na malaki na earnings mo from them, the feedback that this buyer will give you will only slightly affect your rating.  Depende kasi sa amount earned mo ang weight ng feedback sa rating mo.  Merong formula dyan sa help center.

HTH!

Hi mga sis,

Thanks to all who sent me a PM with their email addresses.  I cannot reply to you individually as I don't have PM privileges yet.  Rest assured that when you give me your email addresses, that I send you an invitation to join easyoutsource.com. 

By the way, the invite will come in the form of an email from this address: j.desevg@gmail.com.  I don't know bakit yon ang email address, but we are in the process of changing it.  Baka kasi hindi nyo ma-recognize or you delete the email as spam or junk.  There is also a possibility that the invitation email will go to your spam folder, so make sure to check there.

If you want to have your friends or relatives invited also, just send me a PM and I will gladly send them an invite also.  Thanks!

sis purplemoon. kahit nabayaran ka na nya. you can refund lahat and the feedback wont be a part of your overall rating. you will still see it sa assignment list mo pero di na sya part ng overall feedback sa public profile mo.

[rumplehuey]

Hay naku, nagkaron din ako ng bwiset na buyer. Pinaghirapan ko din un work at sinabihan nya kong hindi daw sya satisfied at kino-compare pa ko sa iba. Nag try pa nga akong makipag ayos sa kanya pero ang ginawa, ni-end nya yun assignment agad. Hindi nya ko binayaran. Mabuti nalang. Nag leave ako ng super negative feedback sa kanya pero hindi nagreflect sa account. nag negative feedback din sya sa kin pero hindi din na reflect sa Profile ko kasi hindi naman nya ko binayaran. Ni-report ko sya sa Odesk Helpdesk.

Sis, anong pangalan ng buyer na yan, baka isang tao lang yung tinutukoy natin. PM mo ako...

If you want, refund mo nalang yun payment tapos end mo na assignment. Unahan mo na sya. Ako before, nag sisi ako kasi hindi ko inunahan yun buyer na masama ang ugali.

@ Cheesecak3, honeyyoung, achie0829, rumplehuey

Thanks so much for your responses mga sis! What I did was to email the buyer detailing yung mga accusations nya sakin na errors, plus my counter-arguments to those accusations complete with quotes from our past emails (haha parang abugado lang). Basta ang bottom line, lahat ng sinisisi nya sakin hindi ko naman kasalanan, sha naman may gawa. Tapos after I sent the email inend ko na yung task. Haha. Sabi ko rin sa kanya sa email na wag shang mag-iiwan ng negative feedback sakin, kasi alam naman nya na quality yung output ko. So ayun, thankfully hindi sha nag-iwan ng feedback sakin. (Or at least I hope hindi na nga talaga sha nag-iwan, baka hindi pa lang nya nababasa yung email ko haha!)

Hay, may mga buyers lang talaga na nakakainit ng ulo, akala mo naman ang taas magbayad!

@ rumplehuey, I PM'ed you the buyer's name. 

[purplemoon]

Hi mga sis,

Is anyone here interested to take on an article writing assignment? Starting pay is $3.50 for a 600-word article, tapos it can be raised to $5 once you've proven your skills to the buyer. The deadlines are reasonable naman, tipong mga 10 articles within 7 days, ganun. I'm already quite busy now kasi so I can't continue with the assignment anymore, so I need to find a replacement.

There are 2 openings for the writer post. If you're interested, please PM/email me your Odesk user ID, and any sample works you might have. If you know of anyone who might be interested, please kindly pass along the message as well.

Thanks mga sis!

purplemoon, ok na yan. Sadyang may mga bwiset talaga na buyer na hindi marunong mag appreciate ng hard work. Akala naman nila ang laki ng mga binabayad nila sa tin. Nakakainis talaga makaencounter ng ganyan. Ako ang dami ko na naging buyer at once lang ako naka encounter ng mga maangas.
Atleast naunahan mo na syang end ang assignment. Bahala na sya kung ano pa ang sbihin nya sayo.

To those who have already registered at easyoutsource, you can invite your friends to join by entering their email address on the "invite a friend" function at the side bar.  Its on the bottom of the side bar.  Just let them know that this is a pre-launch registration and the jobs listed on the site are still for test purposes and the site is still on the polishing stage.  Though, at this point, very little changes needs to be done and we are going to launch very soon.

They will now be getting an email from support@easyoutsource, instead of the email address of our programmer , so the invitation email is easy to spot and won't be mistaken for spam, though it could still land on their spam folder.  So, make sure they check there.

Hopefully in a few weeks, we will have REAL jobs posted there and you can start applying!   Thanks.

Hi mga sis! Pasali ulit ako, kinontact ulit ako ng buyer ko last year pa, may project sya ulit kaya kahit di na ako active sa Odesk, go pa rin ako kasi love ko yung work ko sa kanya. What's great is ginawa nya pa akong team lead for this project.

[honeyyoung]

@ yanchee

sis, i'm replying here kasi I can't send a PM and you have no email address on file.

You can go to "my account" then click edit.  then go to "account" and go to your picture.  Check the "delete picture" box under your picture and click save.

After you click save, your picture will be removed.  You can now upload a new picture for your profile.  Thanks!

[purplesassy]

Super sad ako, 3 out of 5 buyers ko mawawala, yung isa nasuspend..yung isa inend na pero kukunin ulit ako iibahin lang nya yung job title (pero hanggat wala pa hire notice di ako maniniwala) and yung isa mukhang wala na pambayad sakin

[techgirl]

sis, look at the brighter side. mas marami ka ng time ngayon to attend to your wedding preps. hindi ka na ma-i-stress. hindi pretty pag stressed ang bride. syempre ayaw natin yun!
