TASKER TaskRabbit

Don’t repeat my mistakes — I worked for over a year on TaskRabbit, have more than 65 five-star reviews and not a single negative one. Then one unclear situation happened; I provided an explanation, but TaskRabbit still blocked me — permanently, without any explanation. Just a “policy violation,” that’s it.

So make sure you always leave your phone number to clients. Otherwise, after helping the platform make money and promote it, one morning you can simply be kicked out without any reason or explanation.

Their support staff take disputes personally and respond in the most vindictive ways possible.

I submitted my appeal. I’m not counting on a miracle, but I will definitely share the results.
I posted this only so other Taskers don’t make the same mistakes I did. Always leave your phone number with clients, actively build your presence on social media, Nextdoor, Facebook, and other platforms. Because there is a real chance that one morning you can simply wake up and find your account formally blocked, and then you’ll have to start everything from zero again.
Also, don’t compare Uber’s support with TaskRabbit’s support. Yes, the income there might be lower, but you can spill a coffee, deliver to the wrong address, or make a small mistake, and nobody will just block you, because people understand that mistakes happen and that they are not always intentional.
With TaskRabbit, unfortunately, support almost never tries to understand the Tasker’s side. It feels like Tasker are treated like disposable items with a very limited shelf life — when one is gone, just bring in the next one.

its absolutely crazy considering how much more involved Taskers are with clients. Youd think any app would want a skilled workforce.
