You can recieve a message that you have been removed from a gig. It doesn't usually say why and they won't pay you for it. You can't respond to gigwalk email you have to go throught the ap and it shows where the company that hired gigwalk has removed you.
some problems are
1. was sent to photograph a display in a citgo gas station. gas station is now a shell station. I included that with the work. Too bad for me. The response was we asked for citgo, even though the address was shown at the door and THEIR gps took me to the citgo. An employee told me it used to be a citgo about 2 years earlier. I included that info. tough luck. no pay.
2. A funeral company changed their name. same problem.
3. there were papers under the paper that was being photographed. The company wants the photo within so many miles from the place being photographed. tough luck.
4. a display sign is shown in a photo of the product way above my head. I included a photo of the sign in a later question, but because the sign wasn't visable in the photo tough luck.
5. they don't care how far away you drive, how many tolls, how much gas it's up to you to choose which jobs you want which is fantastic, but you don't know if you will get paid. Obviously you won't drive an hour away for six dollars, so if you combine it, that's great, except they aren't paying. tough luck.
5. Clients have my photos without my getting paid for them. One is probably going into a magazine or internet article or book. tough luck.
6. Until gigwalk gets paid neither will you. The problem is there is no recourse. You can't respond to the complaints. I thought this would be a perfect job but ended up costing me money. Their response is always You are welcome to go back and submit it again.
