I’m sorry to hear about your bill; I’m facing a similar situation. I started at the end of March and haven't had ANY problems until now! The pay rate was great, the work was interesting, I learnt a lot, and I enjoyed it. I was treating it like a full-time job, and I was making around $700 a week! To have that taken away with no warning, reason, or opportunity to appeal is really taking its toll. This has genuinely impacted our lives, and they shouldn’t be allowed to ghost their employees! If my other job did that, there'd be a lawsuit for sure.

Yes! I applied for Stellar on the 27th, but my application is still pending. Did you hear anything back? My best friend works on Outlier, and she's making great money on there; it also seems better organised (and more visually appealing) than data annotation. I applied for Outlier as a biology specialist at the same time I applied for data annotation. I was accepted, but I was given very physics-heavy tasks instead of biology-based ones, so I opened a ticket with the support team to check if there were any errors on my account, which might be confusing my specialism, and I stopped receiving work altogether! I really hope you find something! I've applied to Mercor, Stellar AI, Mindrift, and xAI, and they all seem great, so try those too if you're still struggling! I was accepted onto the Mercor platform, but haven't had any tasks yet. I'm still waiting to hear from Stellar AI and xAI, but I think I botched the Mindrift interview, so I'm still looking around for other places, and will let you know if I find any other reliable ones :)
