| Vected does not publicize adequate contact information, such as a physical address and a phone number. It provides a support email address only. | | | Fees and Payments | |
|---|
| Although the service promotes a free payment model for its outsourcers, its terms of service policy states it 'may' charge fees for posting a project; selecting a freelancer; posting a featured project; hiding a project from search engines; hiding bids from other users; and/or posting a full time project. Project commission fees and other miscellaneous fees, such as a dormant $5 fee, may apply as well. In addition, Vected provides escrowing, of sorts, via a pay-per-milestone model. Because it's unclear what payment channels Vected accepts, we assume PayPal is its sole resource since it's referenced in its terms of service policy. Dispute resolution services are available for projects costing $50.00 or more only. | | | Consumer Security | |
