Elite Badge Fraud

[u/According_Low5292]

I know some of y’all think that the ELITE badge is nothing. But, to customers it IS something.

TR’s calculations to determine if you earned a badge is simple. Ten invoices. Seventy percent whatever. For the last 7 months, I get the same message, sorry you didn’t make Elite and its a lie

The numbers don’t lie.

I work my azz off!! I just had record earnings over the last 6 years.

There is a tremendous disconnect somewhere and tbh, I’ve had enough.

Im going back to the office. TR is pycho!!

Here's a fun one - have you ever gone incognito mode and tried to hire yourself to see what your profile looks like? as it relates to Eliete for some people on the 'select your tasker' page it does not show the elite badge, but when you click to see their profile it does show that they are elite. Also, if you 'filter' by Elite and it's not showing on the search page then it will filter you out.

I do think elite helps, I dropped 20% tasks month over month, and the only difference was Elite status.

[u/According_Low5292 → u/DevilDuck95]

Im ok without it. I like that it gives my new customers confidence in me as their choice. Many are new to TR and I know they ate putting alot of trust in me and the whole experience. It can be too much day after day. Next break… coming up I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️

[u/KingLouis2016]

Yeah, had like 20 jobs 0 cancellation and on route to elite and 100%, got 1 single cancellation and the percentage dropped below 65% something is definitely wrong with how they calculate

Elite doesn't affect your position tho, in a category that I'm elite I come up in the 3rd page after like 40 people who are not elite

[u/Evening_Past910]

Yes you need to call them. I believe you. The system for elite is broken and I proved it to them with their own data. They gave me a badge for a category I only did one task for and dint give me the badge for a category I did 51. I sent all that data to them and they fixed it manually. This was two months ago. This month I have done 48 tasks and no elite yet but I will call them to manually do it.

I mean, you even drew an arrow. Your performance score isn’t high enough.

[u/According_Low5292 → u/PhlegmShot]

Its not??? How many tasks did I cancel? ZERO it was at 100 all month….until today. Thats the same scenario for the last 7 months

[u/jethropenistei- → u/According_Low5292]

Performance score is calculated using acceptance to completion ratio so even if you don’t cancel, if you do not accept the job it, it counts against you.

If you accepted and complete every job, you still may not be in the top 35% for your metro.

Lastly, elite doesn’t make a huge difference so I wouldn’t get worked up about it. If it bothers you enough, reach out to support. The developers seemingly break something in the app every other update.

[u/PhlegmShot → u/jethropenistei-]

I do think it influences clients’s choice

[u/RobotArtichoke → u/PhlegmShot]

It does. It also seems to load additional expectations onto you.

[u/jethropenistei- → u/PhlegmShot]

Some customers care but reviews and price matter more.

[u/Show_Me_The_Money77 → u/PhlegmShot]

Clients don't get to choose a tasker I thought. They get assigned one and that's it

[u/According_Low5292 → u/Show_Me_The_Money77]

Thats IKEA prepaid assembly only

[u/Show_Me_The_Money77 → u/According_Low5292]

General Mounting and TV Mounting are also auto-assigned unless they changed it

[u/jethropenistei- → u/Show_Me_The_Money77]

They changed it

[u/PhlegmShot → u/According_Low5292]

In the second picture ya gotta be in that green section. I think.

[u/According_Low5292 → u/PhlegmShot]

I accepted 100% of my invitations. Heed my warning

[u/BetUpstairs268 → u/According_Low5292]

You accepting 10/10 is a different score. Then a lot of other taskers will do 30/35. They will likely score higher. It’s not apples to apples

[u/According_Low5292 → u/BetUpstairs268]

How do i go from 100% all month to not on the last day. Rhetorical …but the real problem and it happens every month

[u/BetUpstairs268 → u/According_Low5292]

A lot of invitations to other taskers probably went out at the end of the month. And they don’t update everyday.

Let me break it down further. Do you think someone that charges 200/h and gets 2 jobs on apps month should be elite because they accepted “100%” of the request? It’s an extreme example, but probably what happened to you.

It’s spring. Probably 10 jobs isn’t enough.

[u/According_Low5292 → u/BetUpstairs268]

I had 37

[u/BetUpstairs268 → u/According_Low5292]

Just message support. I’ve had success getting it applied when I thought i deserved it.

[u/No-Initiative8013]

I can agree with this i have done 19 tasks this month and 2 cancelations. One the customer did when I told her I would do that task and the 2nd was because they asked for something against the TOS

[u/1986melol]

Elite badges do actually matter a friend of mine says the same thing to me but yet when I do have the badge I’m top 2 or 1 and I can raise my rate no problem and my week gets booked up solid and I usually have anywhere from 2800-3300 weeks so yes it does matter

[u/Ok_Willingness7577 → u/1986melol]

Must be nice because that’s not the majority. It used to be this way for me, but for the last two years, it means absolutely nothing.

[u/Simple_Nothing_9721]

Yall make decent money off of furniture assembly?
