On Feb 22, I paid this co a registration fee and got reply saying they'll send me a/c login details for me to start work in 24hrs, fine! I can wait. And up to now, after 3 reminding emails I sent to them, I haven't had a word! I can wait! Or whatelse can I do? Maybe here I can give out my lesson to someone who's going to deal with typeinternational.com --- JUST WATCH OUT!

Hi,
I am Rajesh Mago from New Delhi, India.
I also tried earning money with Typeinternational and based on my exp., I would NOT recommend it to anybody because they might give you money (peanuts) for posting scam related ads selling their own products. They have a network of scam related sites, you can do google search by the keyword "typeinternational" and find it out. My mistake was to join without doing the google search and hence I seem to lost my money. Remember, they will claim that they will give you list of sites where you are required to post their ads (remember the Co. name is typeinternational but believe me at my time there was no typing job) but most of the links will not work and you will waste your time testing them yourself. Their instructions are also not clear and forget about their support. They are very rude and don't know much. If you send a similar query to their two or three different support related email addresses you will get two different answers.
I have already written to a lady called Kim (maybe she is real) regarding the refund of my balance signup amount and money earned by posting ads but have not received any reply. There are some indian friends of mine who before my signup claimed that they are getting regular payments for posting ads of this scam Co. I decided to quit bcos i relaised that I was posting their own ads of scam related internet products and it was too tiring. The support was poor and the instructions were not clear. There are lot of Complaints regarding them which I discovered later after joining.
Now I am planning to make max. complaints about Typeinternational to the concerns listed at the given below address-
http://www.fraudaid.com/links.htm
Regarding BBB, it's a private concern and I have read on Internet that they themselves blackmail Co.'s if they don't give them money for getting BBB certification from them. So, I will advise to make complaints with Govt. concerns such as FTC.
My advise to all of my friends looking for earning money from Internet will be to do atleast a google search for the Co. which they are planning to join before paying any money. It certainly helps a lot.
thanks
Rajesh Mago

Hi
I am Gautam Bose,from Kolkata,India.
Bad Expereience about typeinternational.com
I have registered myself in typeinternational.com prejoining forum. I have personally emailed their customer service that various complain I have seen about typeinternational in various forum & also I have emailed them personally (not posted in their forum). They answered me two times & after that they have banned me from their prejoining forum. I don't know why. They don't even not inform me that what my fault is. I have just ask their views about the complain. If this is my fault so what is the necessity to introduce prejoinning forum in their website. I am really confused about home based business.

One rule you should follow to avoid experiences like this....
Never pay a registration or joining fee for any work opportunity
There is no legitimate reason to charge a joining or registration fee.
Any company offering work is going to be earning from the work you do - they should NOT be charging you for the privilege of working for them.
Even if they supply you products or raw materials in return for your payment then this should be at their risk - not yours.
Do not pay anything - then you can't lose anything.
After all, you will be making money for them, when you sell their products.
Unfortunately you still might be caught by a scam if you do work but are not paid for it - but at least all you have lost is your time - not any actual cash.

When you have joined a forum like this one you should have enquired before investing money. In future please do not get carried away by the ads and invest money in any program without trying to find out as much information as possible. We are here to help each other. There are quite a good number of scams on the net. Be wary of any program which demands money upfront.

Yes I received several warnings about them from traffic exchange owners. Its a shame you people lost money but look on the positive side next time you'll do a lot more research before parting with your cash.
BBB has listed them as unsafe . If you do a search at bbb you'' get the full story
Here a snippet from bbb

Any "job" which requires advance payment is probably a scam

I am also looking for a job online, have been for around a month. i could not believe my eyes at the amount of (so called available) jobs on here. every time i see a "great" job site, i type it in the search box. than i scroll down looking for forums like this to find comments from people who have tried the job. people just need to have patience and another job while they are looking.

Sorry to hear about your experience. It is true that the companies that want registration fee for giving jobs are all scams.

Thank you all for sharing the stories about typeinternational. I nearly fall prey not so long ago. Aren't they any truly legitimate sources for an online work at home? Have any of you also known of Interjobconnects.org?

I just signed up Typeinternational.
I am not sure its scam but their assignments seems take more than full time work. You have to really hard study first to start doing assignments and you have to spend lots lots lots of time on internet.
if you are combo member, you wont get paid as a combo. you have to work on each different program and have to get $110 each program.
This $110 seems easy first, but once you started, they set so many rules. like you have to place 500ads no duplicate each different 5 or 6 assignemtns. who has that time to looking 500 different webs, sign up for those, and then place 500 different ads?????
you wont get paid ever!
Typeinternational says much more easy assignment rather than like google ads work but its basically same. what you have to do is placing ads. thats all, otherwise you have to make a lot lot lots effort spending more research yourself for them and just waisting time.

www.scamfreezone.org has listed typeinternational as one of it's legitimate companies. I joined typeinternational yesterday in the Research position, then found the first assignment is to compile a list of contact details for people seeking jobs (work at home, typing etc) on the internet. Sounds VERY suspicious - paying workers to recruit more workers. I emailed scamfreezone saying this, and also that people have been posting here saying that they haven't been paid. Scamfreezone wrote back saying they would need the names of the people who haven't been paid. They also said that they have never heard any complaints about typeinternational in the 6 years it has been around.
So, I'd suggest anyone missing payment from typeinternational should contact scamfreezone. Please reply to this message if you have done so, so that I will know that scamfreezone are hearing the truth.

DO NOT ATTEMPT JOIN "TYPE INTERNATIONAL PROGRAM". THIS IS BIG SCAM!!!
I am one their victim. I feel I have to share with about them in order to not spread their victims.
Typeinternational, Robert Bell([email protected]) leads this most suspicious, dishonest, biggest scam online company.
I WORN YOU WHOEVER READ THIS FORUM NOW!!!
If you are interested in and curious about them, GO TO BBB, Just type "TYPEINTERNATIONAL" you will get all reports showing the worst rating, Robert Bell created the same name company in everywhere, CA, AZ , WA, or OH. They all got "F" rating.
Still curious?
Send me personal email. I will give you all my log in information. I signed up as combo member so you can see all programs and what exact assignments you will have to do, which are 99% only placing ads. All programs are the same and just placing ads. Nothing different!!! The requirements are insane. For example, you will have to compile or place ads 100-500 websites to get $20. How long you think to finish these assignments? Do you have enough free time to do that for only $20? They also require monthly fee between $10-$30, which does not make sense at all.
None of customer services are professional but rude, no time manner and Robert Bell sent me email and called me "you are liar"
PLEASE DO NOT WAIST YOUR PRECIOS TIME AND MONEY!!!

I can't believe I signed up with these people without reading any reviews with them first! I just signed up with them...they said 24 hours...then a big whopping NOTHING. I didn't even get a chance to take a crack at the assignments! WHAT EVER YOU DO, DO NOT BUY FROM TYPEINTERNATIONAL!
You will loose your money! You will buy their product and get nothing in return! You will give them money for nothing! Hey wait a minute...didn't they use to call that theft??

I did a big mistake. I signed with Typeinternational without searching about the company. It is a scam . Is there a possibility to work from home without being cheated?

If people do the work per our instuctions and they are paid 2 times a month.If they do not follow instructions then they do not get paid as we do not get paid for the work.If members would spend more time doing the work the right way and not complaining to Forums they would make money.The only ones complaining are lazy Americans who are scared of work.95% of our payouts go to other Countries with a better work ethic.

Respect all readers,
Lemme tell you one honest and 100% accurate tale about TypeInternational.
I'm a 22 years old IT professional from Serbia.
I joined TypeInternational more than a month ago. I payed 58 dollars for the Basic Typist position and 10 more dollars for the personal webpage every member has to have. After a week I recived everything I need in order to start and I started. The first thing I had to do is the New Member Assignment. It has to be done by all new members in order to continue doing the rest of the assignments. The system is not bad, you have the welcome page where you have the links to the forum, assignments board, tutorials, etc., you have the commision page where you see all your results and information regarding your assignments and you have your stats page on which you can trace and monitor your earnings and payment history. OKay, that is okay.
Now the new mamaber assignment or NMA. It says that you have to post the AD which they give you on 150 classified AD sites. Just to mention, every NMa is different and it's always changing. This one was mine. And they have the rules. The rules are that you cannot post on CGI sites, Becanada and CFM sites. Also, you cannot post two times on the same domain. They have the whole phylosophy concerning the networked sites. You have to place the Ad they give you, together with the link of your member webpage. And I started. People....it's exausting ! I worked 7 days, 10 hours a day ! Among the classified sites list that they give you, more than 70% are not functional links. So you have to really waste your time in sorting out the working from non-working sites, and you have to search for more classified sites. You have to watch out that you don't place 2 times on the same domain which is extreamly hard rule because who is gonna remember every website among those 150 sites you placed an AD on. But, I was smart enough and as I found a working site I would place an AD on it and write it to a notepad file which I named Classified AD sites, which will I use for the later assignments. You can use those same sites in the next assignment, it's important that you don't use the same site more than 1 time in one assignment. Also, it took me a lot of time because you have to sign-up on most of those sites, and the worst thing is that some sites have rated TypeInternational as a scam so they banned any posts containing anything related to them. And okay, I thought. After I finish this NMA I will have a full list of 150 working sites and I will be signed-up on all of them so the next time will be easier and I will just rush through them. And after a lot of pain I finished the NMA. I sent it, but after one day I read at my commision page that it was rejected. They don't tell you where did you made a mistake or how, they only write you for example "November NMA asks for 1 ad per domain, no CGI sites, and ADs to be placed on related sites.".
Whoa, great ! And I started searching for the errors in my assignment. Oh boy, some of the sites have the same IP address but have the different name, some of them has the similar name but are different IP addresses, etc..Chaos, total chaos ! I found a couple of errors and I corrected them and I sent my assignment again. It was rejected again. Now I became really angry and I wrote a few mails to them asking them to tell me where did I make a mistake ? Because I didn't know what else to search for, I dunno what is a mistake for them. I started searching again, but this time I used DNS lookup tool to diferentiate between the domains. People, I'm an IT professional and I know what are the same and what are the different domains. I got and answer from them after a few mails and they told me where did I make a mistake...it was only one mistake, tiny mistake. But as I found out using DNS lookup, it wasn't only one. The worst thing is that they don't know how to differentiate between domains, as well. So I corrected everything and sent it again. That is the last time, if your assignment gets rejected for the 3rd time you have to do it again all over. But after a week of waiting it was accepted. They have the right to hold your assignment for 21 days untill they proccess it, so I only had to wait. In the meantime I started working on the 1st assignment for November. Every month you have 5 assignments, plus one bonnus assignment, and some special assignments. The NMA holds 15$ if you finish it, and those 5 regular assignments holds 20$ each. But, the regular assignments differ from the NMA. I started doing the first regular assignment. The assignments differ only in the AD you are placing. The rules for the regular assignments are: you have to place that AD on 100 classifieds AD sites, 30 message boards, 20 safelists, 20 optin groups and 30 traffic generators which give more than 1000 credits on startup. Yeah. Just to mention, every month the rules are different and the assignments are changing. So if you do it, you get 20$ for each. So I started doing the 1st regular assignment while my NMA was accepted. I've done the first part with the classified sites very quickly, in 3 days, 3 hours a day. Because I already had my list of sites that work and on which I'm signed up. The safelists and optin groups weren't hard also, it's easy to find the list of them, and I did that in 2 days, 3 hours a day. That's 6 days. For the traffic generators I needed more 2 days, 5 hours a day to finish them. That's round 8 days of work, round 4 hours a day, for one regular assignment which carries 20$.
Oh yes, they also have the assignment processing fee which is 5$ per assignment, so you practically earn 10$ for the NMA, and 15$ for the each regular assignment...and you have the personal webpage fee which is 15$ a month. And after 8 days I finished the 1st regular assignment and I sent it. After a few days of waiting, just yesterday, I found out that my 1st assignment got rejected...now that was too much. The reason ? "November assignment 1 asks for 1 ad per domain, no CGI sites, and ADs to be placed on related sites.". The same again. And I used the same list of sites which I used in my corrected version of NMA which was accepted. Maybe there was one tiny mistake, but they are so strict and they cannot forgive anything, the whole assignment drops in the water. And the new rule came as well in the meantime ! The submission dates ! For november, the latest date by which you can submit the November assignments is the 12th of November, and for December is the 10th of December. That practically means that I have 12 days in November to do all of the assignments and 10 days in December for all of the December assignments. But they thought quickly and they have put that the Nov and Dec assignments be the same. But doesn't matter !
After all, I made a calculation. By the end of this year 2007, no matter how hard I tried and how much I worked, I'll manage to finish only some of the regular assignments. I won't have time to start any special assignment which carries more than 20$, nor any other. In the end, till the end of the year 2007. I'll earn no more than 80$. So, 80$ in total during the October, November and December, when I assume the assignment processing fee and the monthly subscription for the personal webpage.
So, I decided to quit. I think that they didn't deliver what they promiced. On their website, they say that the Basic Typist position can earn up to 1000$ a month. But the sad reality is that you can earn no more than 80$ a month, plus you need one month before that to finish the NMA and compile all the lists and everything you need to do the rest of the assignments. So, you need 2 months after you start to earn 80$. Really sad.
I wrote a letter to the president of TypeInternational Robert Bell and asked for the full refund of my money. I'm waiting for the answer. When I payed for the start-up, the payment company on my cradit card statement was ScamFreeZone.Com, which is also owned by Mr.Bell. So, I'm expecting that scamfreezone.com refunds my money.
Mr.Bell told me in one e-mail that the only complaints come from the lazy Americans and deadbeats. But no. The sad reality is that it's not just Americans. It's the human rewarding system which asks for something after a hard and tremendous work. After all, I love American people very much.
I'm not saying that they are a scam. There really are the assignments and the resources for the workers, and they really pay. But the submission dates which are a nonsense, the rules and polices which only makes things and life more bitter, and the tremendous ammount of work needed to just stand on your feet within that system is really too much, and I, as an IT professional who is used to get payed good cash after the hard work, cannot continue and cannot accept that because I'm not a slave. There are indeed people that work really hard in this company and that earn 100$ or 200$ a month, I dunno maybe more, and they are satisfied, but it really depends on the standard of life you used to live with. I think that TypeInternational is for the poorer people and I think that TI system can work okay in the countries where the work ethics is at that level and where the working souls are cheap.
For me, it's just not enough for my rewarding system to get through.
I think that I managed to share with you the real truth about TypeInternational and that I managed to show that company in the real light, not positive nor negative, but as it is, from my experience.
I whish all of you the Good Health and,
Love is the law, love under Will !

P.S.
I'm now without a job, and I still didn't find any online income opportunity. And I still didn't earn 250$ which I told to myself that I have to earn in order to make some of my dreams come true. Please, if anybody knows about any online job which I could do from home and which covers all the world including my country and which doesn't ask for any startup fees, tell me.
I will be very glad !

I want to inform all of you that TypeInternational opened a new position called Home Typist. It's much easier, there are no any of those rules that make like harder and it's much better paied. I returned and continued working for them, because this position is just the right thing in the right time !
I suggest anybody who have time and really want to work to try it out. You get 15 cents per AD placed. Unlimited income potential people !
Cheers !
