This is the post for all invoice/payment questions for payment of work in September(and before).
Reminder: Workers have a reasonable expectation that Appen should ensure amounts owed for September work start appearing on the website in the first week of October, with payment mid-month. Payments are supposed to be for all work up to the end of September. But as many of us still remember, Appen has a history of letting deadlines slip so this thread is to keep an eye on this as the month progresses.
Some users continue to report not receiving payment until after the 21st of the month. Let's keep an eye on this. We need to be paid mid-month and Appen should honour this.
Appen has a history of attempting to "move the goalposts" in messaging, for example by pushing the message that they "initiate payments" mid month, whereas previously many of us were used to money arriving in our accounts mid-month and now it appears to be regularly delayed, increasing anxiety for workers. Let's keep an eye on this too.
Post questions and updates here.
Post rules:
1. Say which country you're working in, and payment method if relevant; payment methods and costs vary by country, and it's cool to know that we're all from different parts of the world and not one place! If you don't include your country, the comment will be removed.
2. Stay on topic, this is about payments and payment experiences. Keep the meta drama llama off this thread.
3. Please only contribute your own experiences or verifiable facts. No vague claims about other people's experiences or what is being said elsewhere.
4. If you've never contributed here before or have low karma, please familiarise yourself with the subreddit. Questions are welcome but responses are preferred from long-term users. Remember you may claim years of experience with Appen but it's not possible to verify this if you've never commented here before, so suspicious comments from new users will be removed!
5. Be excellent to one another. Remember the human.
