So i had worked and became a guide on ChaCha. I thought this was a great at home job. Getting $0.10/message i answered i had it figured out on how many questions i needed to answer to make a decent pay rate. Well after about a month of my services ChaCha decided they no longer needed me & i would get paid within 30-45 days. It's past the 45 days and i STILL have not gotten paid. I tried emailing them about this with no response back. So this popular site seems they scammed me into helping their business grow and not pay me for it. Anyone else have this issue?

I had a problem with ChaCha. I was an active user then stopped when I moved. About 2 months after not logging in I logged in and did a few questions. A few weeks later I got an email from ChaCha stating that I had broken their TOS. I inquired why and they stated a section of the TOS. Well I had to hunt it down because I had been banned from the site. When I finally found the section it said something along the lines that I was terminated because I was associated with someone who spoke badly of the program. WTF is that about?
They said I would get paid and I did. Took awhile to come though, I got a check in the mail eventually. Took so long that I had forgotten about it.

Wow that is crazy! Well i guess i was "fired" because of not providing the right resources for answers... but you can't really provide a proper resource when someone is asking "Will i marry this person". So i'm assuming they held that against me. I guess that's why they're not accepting guides now. So many complaints!
