Betatesting Anmeldelser 

Their user tests are not paying much. Moreover, recently they switched from paying full with PayPal to deducting 6% from paypal payments and offering tremendous for full payment. When I gave the feedback to them that this is not fair, the response I got was "We actually increased our rewards more than 25% before our switch to Tremendous! So, the 6% is negligible." To me that response is just laughable. I am not sure when and how they really increased their prices for 25%. I really don't see that. Now it is possible that maybe I have low ratings and that's why I don't get high paying tests? Who knows! Because, there is no transparency. As a tester, I cannot see what my ratings are, where I got low ratings, and no feedback on how to improve. So this site for me is getting worse and worse. If you won't be transparent about our ratings and help us get higher paying tests, what is the point of staying here? and if when we send feedback through their platform we will just be talked down, I really don't see the point in directly communicating them to help them imrpove their system. Perhaps leaving a rating here for them, which is fully transparent, would be helpful for them to improve something. I'll continue using their site but if it goes like this and I just don't get any transparency, I am not sure if I will last long. There are many alternatives out there.

Very poor at communications. Don't live up to their promise. Some money ($50 allegedly) was paid to some testers - but which ones? No communication regarding test ending. Pretty poor overall - would not recommend.

My reply to the Betatesting.com response:

The fact that it has taken you 9 months to respond, and the belligerence of your response indicates to me the calibre of your company.
I have just gone back into the testing webpage, and discovered that it had taken 2 months for someone to reply to my question regarding has the test completed or not? "yes everything is complete, thank you for your feedback". That was it.
Now here is why I found the whole experience regrettable - the testing was hardware, with the equipment in question being a TCL television. The reward was that the TV could be kept on completion, providing that sufficient testing had been completed, AND 25% of the testers would receive a additional $50 reward.
The test was never formally announced as complete; there was dead silence from the Betatesting team; there was no indication that the TV could be kept or not; and most importantly, there was NO indication of who had received the $50 reward. So in reality, it could have been nobody received it. Who knows?
I have no reference numbers for the test. It was clearly labeled as "Hardware Test - 55 Inch TV shipped to you for 5 week test" and as far as I know it was limited to 30 testers in Thailand.
So I stand by my original review title: Betatesting.com is *very poor at communications* and I would not recommend getting involved with them.

Reply to 2nd response:

I understand that I was probably not in the top 25% (although how you calculate 25% of 30 people is a bit of a mystery) but the fact remains that NO ONE communicated the results and as far as I or anyone else knew there could have been 7, 8 or even 0 people who received $50. Where is your transparency? And as far as the free TV goes and without wishing to sound ungrateful, it was such a poor example of modern technology, with promised software updates never materialising, that I gave it away.

What an amazing platform this is. I registered a week ago, and guess what happened? I already earned $10. I have to say they have a very fast payout, and by fast, I mean a 1-minute payout. Please use this platform; you won't regret it!
