User Reviews for Instawork: Be your own boss

Straight up thieves

My boyfriend has problems with Insta work from the very beginning. First it was with the uniforms and verification. The app glitched and didn’t show him on of the categories he needed to start a shift. It took two weeks and many workers for someone to finally be of use and help. Once he got his first shift, he did exactly as the app told him and began to work. The shift was fine, but he had to fight to get the tips he was rightfully owed. When he received his first payment from that shift, Instawork took the money he was owed saying that the company reported he didn’t show. My boyfriend had a mountain of evidence that he did work, from pictures of the event, the shift leads name, names of other people from insta work at the event, captain codes (what you need to literally start the event), but was tossed from worker to worker, having to re explain his case repeatedly. Some of the people just left the chat without even responding! Finally, someone submitted a claim but the company denied it saying he didn’t work. How! When he has so much evidence of him being there?? Customer support is the absolute worst. Corporate doesn’t care at all and they are so unprofessional. They just blatantly stole his money. My boyfriend even reached out to the company and they are ignoring his calls!! Instawork had been a complete waste of time and a let down.

great

I really do enjoy working with Instawork. i’m unsure why so many people wrote bad reviews and the people who have wrote that they have not got paid I always get paid. with any job that you work it’s never perfect but I will say that instawork and their customer care they really really work with us and they do their very best to continue to keep us happy and paid and making good money I’ve had personal issues where I’ve had to miss my shift unexpectedly which would be considered a no-show or I’ve had to cancel last minute and I’ve never had an issue I submit to them a note or whatever that they need and again no issue I would highly highly recommend instawork to anyone as I have already but I will continue to do so. What other job can you pick your hours, what other job can you make endless amounts of money, and what other job offers all of the amazing incentives that instawork offers especially now with the holidays approaching. as I already stated I truly in my heart believe that instawork works there very hardest to make us as much money as possible and to keep us all happy and I think they do a very very very good job at that therefore I would give them nothing under a five star rating and I want to use this opportunity to say thank you instawork for everything that you’ve done and the opportunities, the endless amounts of opportunities that you have given me I love instawork and I will continue to pick up shifts probably for a long time!

INSTAWORK ACTUALLY DOES WHAT IT SAYS

I have tried different apps in order to be able to work when I need incone between jobs, when I’ve been out of work and MOST apps do not deliver..straight up, they do not and many of other app reviews reflect this. Instawork on the other hand is user friendly, posts open shifts and you can go through pick your shifts and go to work. It is truly user friendly. If you have questions they are answered quickly and this is a REAL BENEFIT. You do have to upload a resume or your past work history in order to qualify for different shifts. The Instawork app I have found to be incredibly user friendly. I’ve worked at IKEA, Restaurant Depot, a few catering gigs with “upper end” establishments which I’ve enjoyed The more you work, show you’re dependable and reliable MORE shifts open up to you. In fact, as you receive “badges”, higher levels, your hourly pay raises as does your ability to see open shifts before others do. It’s a great way to make money when you are at a crossroads in life, lost a job, coming back to work after being off, etc. You are also able to chose to only do I9 work, or you can add on your verified information and do W2 work along with the option of looking for a job with a company who is using Instawork to find a good fit employee. Instawork is worth a try if you want user friendly, control of your life along with working with some great people…

Very Cool!!!

The Instawork app is simply user-friendly in just about all aspects that there really could be in regards to finding satisfaction in a product/service, far beyond what you would ever initially anticipate an app to be, simply configuring itself from what you never knew you were ever missing out on in life before so suddenly making impact on being exactly what your life was in true need of, andddd ESPECIALLYYYY SOO in being an app that’s conveniently providing assistance, pioneering more-easible accessibility to resources within the market that specifically pertains crucial to continuing structural rebuild and continuing growth within our economy! The masters at Instawork have made it so simple for their consumers that in the matter of time it took me to roll out of bed and finish a quick small to medium-size bowl of cereal, not only was I still on usual pace with my regular daily routine but, I next made my way into my morning shower with my personal Instawork profile filled out, all on-boarding documents authorized, and even found myself off to have “completed” a handful of applications “ already. I don’t see how finding work could really get any much more easier and convenient than this, and do feel like this is a company/app that will own that stance well into the foreseeable future!

Decent platform with software issues and unsupportive of workers

The most frustrating thing about this app is the lack of opportunity and income security. Theres often no shifts available and if you want to get even just 16 hours a week you have to book shifts weeks in advance. There is not a way to find coverage through the platform, you have to message individuals on there. You have can not cancel with the intent of working if no one else takes it and you are penalized for canceling shifts well in advance and those shifts are often booked by others within a day. These penalties result in further difficulty securing hours. There are also connectivity issues that can prevent you from clocking in and out of shifts. I have to re-confirm every shift because 90 minutes before I get a text message that says I am not tracking to the location and will be pulled off the shift in 30 minutes when I have a 40 minute commute. I've also seen someone be pulled off a shift for not confirming while working a shift and we were left understaffed because if it, even though he still arrived because he didn't know it was canceled, they were unable to get him put back on the shift after attempting to get in contact with Instawork Support and he had to go home. There isn't alternative option out there, not that I've seen. I've tried a few apps and this one is better but it has a lot of flaws.

WORST SUPPORT SYSTEM EVER

I think if Instawork wants to continue growing they need to hurry up and set up an office in the US. The support system is terrible. They don’t even have a phone number… You have to create a chat and send a message if you have a problem or need help. It says they reply in a day but it takes them days and days to reply to one question even if you had multiple issues. They’re the same with the businesses too. The support is useless. Since they take days to respond if you had a pay issue or work issue it won’t get fixed in time for maybe your check or your next gig. They need to set up a customer support number because the whole chat thing is ridiculous especially since they don’t respond and are very useless. I looked up the headquarters and I’m pretty sure it’s just a bunch of randoms in India who barely even know how to solve your problems with the app. It’s very annoying and frustrating I sent them two emails. It’s been 2 weeks since I’ve sent a chat looking for help cause I’m missing a payment and STILL no reply. If you want a real gig app download people ready. They actually have an office you can call with Americans you can talk to, that know what’s going on and can offer real help for your problems. This app is a joke.

Treat professionals like trash!

I loved Instawork from the start. During Covid they got me thru some real tough times. However, this is quite possibly the worst app when it comes to professional support and money. They have “paid backup” instapay shifts that you show up too and if everyone originally scheduled shows up, you get to leave. So you’re on the clock for 5 minutes, if that. Although it’s an instant pay gig you have to write them over and over and over and legit threaten them legally to get your paid backup pay. It took them over a week to pay me not once not twice and not three times. They don’t work with some companies to ensure we get tips like everyone else in this service industry. All the other apps do! Last but not least my final straw with this joke of a company. Referral bonuses- even if you write in the same day as your referred friend, so you both get the bonus, they won’t acknowledge you for it because your friend didn’t go directly thru your link. The Same day, as a matter of fact, literally an hour or two after my friend finished filling her app out. That’s just rude disrespectful customer service. They want us to be professional when working yet they don’t lead by example. There is also NO phone support to solve issues quickly. Expect up to 72 hours before a response typically

$$&$The BEST AND FASTEST WAY TO MAKE!!$$$$!!

First of all I would like to thank the creators that came up with the idea to create an app that’s so unique and user friendly THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU from the depth of my soul!!! This is where the funds comes in now (lol),!! If you’re looking for a way to earn extra money on top of INCENTIVES $$$$$ just by meeting basic common sense work rules requirement that should be naturally instilled in you already especially if you’ve had a job before in general or if you’re currently working a regular 9-5. You are being rewarded for coming into work on TIME AND following the company’s procedures in any situation you’re in, doing what is asked of you, keeping it professional, NOT calling out ESPECIALLY when it’s not done correctly because then the company is left short handed due to your abandonment when they could’ve filled that high end paying position to someone that really needed it. that’s with any company you have work for or still working for, it can hurt your ratings and effect your high end paying positions (Remember Communication is the 🔑🔑🔑 I promise!!) but Honestly that sounds like a daily work schedule anyways right??? but without the incentives or recognition that Im sure you deserve!! ******NO I WASN'T PAYED TO SAY THIS AND HONESTLY I DONT EVER WRITE REVIEWS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE NO ONE READS THEM***

PERSEVERANCE IS 🔑!!, Sep 27, 2023

Hustle

If you like to hustle & earn extra income this is the app for you. I’ve personally been working non stop through this app. Since January 24th 2022. That was my first gig. For the next 8 months I was working in a different place almost every single day, I would be going to a new location to utilize my skill set. Now every gig is different and nothing is perfect but all in all this app via the gig economy marketplace has enabled me to fully focus on an upcoming career change. My point is instawork is legit & if you are passionate, professional & humble about your work. This app will take you to the next level. I am now writing a review because I am taking a bit of a break from the non stop gig economy. If you’re a good worker, Instawork will notice & will reward you with more incentivized gigs. It’s hard work & paying attention to detail goes a long way. Cooking, serving, bartending, warehouse, dishwashing, even driving. Setting up for events, most likely a wedding or corporate display. The platinum bonus is nice & the developers seem to care about the user experience. As the app is constantly being updated. While keeping a good head on your shoulders this app will help you down the road. Just remain professional & consistent. This will not go unnoticed. Thank you for reading this review. This comes from myHeart. -Jim
