Scam Site - Unjust Termination of Contracts
I have been editing for Editavenue for over 5 years and I really love my job. I think to be an online editor the most important thing is paying very close attention to deadlines and communications, and most importantly, remembering that the company bases all on USA eastern std time. I have had a few clients who have tried to get me to work for free, but again, as a worker for Editavenue you have to uphold Their rules which is you do Not work for free so do not agree to do so--you aren't being nice if you are working for free, you are violating your job. I have always made sure clients pay for what they submit in a very polite but firm way, and I have been still able to keep my positive ratings. It is not a job for everyone but I love this job because I have met intelligent people from all around the world, and I have been able to help them get their writing in proper English, and present their best selves. This is an unexpected bonus that makes my job more than an income.
My first check from Editavenue was less than $5 since I had started towards the end of the month, and I cried with disappoinment. But within 3 months I was making over $200 as more people began to pick me, and thereafter have been able to make it work. It is a great job, to be able to work from home, but timing is Everything. One of the terms and conditions is that once a client submits a job you Can't say no, you must complete it, so my advice to future editors, or if you get your job back is to make sure you fully understand terms and conditions and you check email and Editavenue website Often.
I think ti would be great if we could go over to direct deposit however, due to cuts in postal services worldwide as I have had checks go astray, and this is scary.
Otherwise, I have to honestly say my dealing with Editavenue over 5 years have been positive and a worthwhile employment--good for customers, good for editors.
