“Payment From Employer Held For Extended Period”

Doc S.
7/15/23

The company I was working for on this platform paid me on Tuesday, it is now Thursday and I am still not paid. I contacted their support yesterday and they said it was so-called "under review", and sent me a bunch of links saying it could take up to 5 business days to be paid, which means I might have to wait until the middle of next week to get my money. This is completely unacceptable! I am completely unsatisfied with this platform, and even though I know they are using a third-party processor, this processor should not have the right to make people wait so long to get paid. The decision to use this processor ultimately leads back to GoLance, so they are directly responsible for this situation. I would not recommend this platform in any way.

Tip for consumers:
Make sure you read their covert terms of service regarding payments.

I just want to express my utmost gratitude to Stephanie, who has been working with me since Friday to resolve the problem regarding my withdrawal. She has been very patient and thorough in answering my questions and extending her help. I wish I could do more than this review to thank her enough! Maybe a survey intended solely for her, perhaps? :) thank you, Stephanie!

"When I was bored with 9-5 job, suddenly I found out this amazing online working platform. Then I have researched on it to be familiar with. All these features of goLance attract me a lot, like lower flat rate, easy to go interface, handling multiple clients at a time and many more. Then I started working here and never looked back."

I'm a business dealing with many contractors, and I have been working with them for a year.
They helped me migrate from UpWork and reduce significantly the fees (for both my contractors and my business).
They are very open to feedback and it's great to see how much they improved since I'm using them.
Highly recommended.

Golance has an environment that is very transparent and is destined to only lead to higher quality service being rendered. Accountability and quality of work seem to take top place in their ethics and they are always looking to ensure that they can improve the overall user experience on the platform.

I recently had a great experience with GoLance. I used it for the first time to hire someone to help me with some design work.

The process of creating an account, finding someone skilled to help me, managing the project and paying were straight forward.

Would highly recommend.

You get what you pay for here. Obviously you're dealing with people all over the world, some are short sighted while others want to build relationships. If youre aware of this and can filter the bad eggs out then you shouldn't have a problem here.

If you are looking for remote job, goLance is the best option for you! It is easy to use platform. Customers support is fast and always helpful. Freelancer's commission fee is low. More over you can invite users to goLance and earn a percentage from their commission fee!

I don't usually write reviews for anything lol. I've been a contractor on most freelancing platforms, and golance is so far the best, most flexible platform i've worked on. I love that I don't have to pay to apply to jobs and I also have a low contractor fee.

I also like the payday advance feature. I was in a tight situation one week and I needed my money early. I didn't even have to go directly to my client to ask for my funds early(which is cringe-worthy), I was able to use the payday advance feature to get my money early. This was a major life saver for me at that time.

Started using GoLance a few weeks to find high quality assistants and copywriters. Very pleased so far. I had one VA that i wasn't thrilled with, but was able to cut ties with him quickly and smoothly.

Very happy

I own my own clothing store and until recently i was clueless onn what to do with my online portion of the business.

I got introduced to golance.com where i could find people to work with that could help me build what i needed to, to make my site perfect for me. Without these graphic designers and VA's i am not sure i would be as successful as i am today.

Thank you GoLance :)
