BARE International Anmeldelser 

Disonesti , impossibile da contattare , nel momento in cui il report non è in linea con il loro volere respingono il report e non lo pagano . Assolutamente società da evitare .

Total scam. First they act desperate, begging you to do their crappy one-off tasks for basically nothing. Then when you're done, surprise: either they vanish and drag out your payment for months, or they flat-out refuse to pay, claiming your work "wasn’t good enough." Avoid at all costs.

Passed the deadline for payment, when I got in touch no one returned my emails.

Major payment issues--they stopped paying.

I have done shops for BARE for many years, probably close to 100 shops, never with any issues. However, starting in mid May, 2025, while the company claims I was paid, the payments never showed in my paypal account. All the shops were approved, and online show a date paid. The money never reached me.

They DO NOT return phone calls. The only email I received told me to check with paypal. Paypal can only tell me I didn't get the money. I am out the payment for my last 4 shops (luckily, they are small and I will be fine).

I have reached one person who responded to an email, and I was told, she put in a "ticket" to the payment dept. No additional information. Yet they keep calling asking me to do more shops. The schedulers say they have no access to payment records and can not help.

Until I hear from them and get the issue resolved, I am DONE with this company.

After 3 weeks, things are progressing and the issue has been resolved. The sad thing, it could have been found and corrected much sooner.

Le site est inaccessible . Il aurait subi une cyberattaque majeure. Mais peut-être ont-ils fermé pour d'autres raisons.

Was contacted on a Wednesday the 28th of May at 7pm asking if I could help out and perform a 2 hour long shop that night before midnight and this shop is an hour away and they would “quick pay” me and would be paid by Monday, Monday came and no payment, I emailed the project scheduler at noon on Monday to verify that I was getting paid that day and got no reply later Monday evening I was told that they were sick and that they would fix it in the morning, morning came and was told there was a miscommunication on their end and I would be paid by Thursday well today is Thursday and still no payment so I email again and get asked if I followed step by step instructions to claim my quick pay? Ummm no one said I had to “claim”it so I went through my emails my spam my trash all my inboxes and there was not a single message from the project manager to claim my quick pay so they send me another email today with the instructions to claim it and it won’t let me claim it, now I have to wait another day so they can reset it so now I am looking at NEXT Wednesday before I will supposedly be paid on this so called “Quick Pay”

I´m working for more than 15 years in audits and mistery shopper , mainly in automotive area.
I know Bare international since than, and I can say that since they have a portuguese manager , its the worst of 6 or 7 companies that I work.
The jobs they post , its only a fassade , only the ones her friends dont want you can do. all the others you never get.

I have only done one shop for Bare so far. But ever since signing up, I have received strange threatening emails from various strangers demanding bitcoin or stating I owe money. They use my address and phone and state they know where I live etc. The same type of email came as a confirmation of the shop I completed. I am convinced this "company" is bogus and needs to be investigated. I have not been paid for the shop I did and actually Bare never inquired how my payments should be sent. BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY !! I will be contacting the BBB.

They were great for a while. Then they decided to decline two of my shops claiming I did not follow the guidelines. Nowhere in my narrative did I indicate that I do what they claimed. I emailed them to explain this
They refused to even acknowledge emails. These were shops I did 2 days before Christmas that I had to travel quite a ways to do.

You are rolling the dice with them.

this company is a scam i did many jobs no payment ever they are scammers i never got paid they owe me money i cant get paid u work no payments no way of contacting them.

I did several assignments with them and it was going ok and I had an average 9 score. But once, my assignment was rejected for no clear reason, and when I sent emails to complain, the president of the company tells me "Don't contact my employees"!
What a shameful way to treat people who work for them.

Very Unprofessional Agency. Generally their work is just working masses and no quality. Written language is on a level of uneducated personell and without considering what they are sending - that leads to trouble.

The tested company cancelled my appointment and the contact person sent me a suggestion I fulfilled and sent in.

Few days later she called me raging and without considering her confirmation. She came with claims about things that weren't discussed and I was apparently to blame that this test didn't work out.

I have never experienced such an arrogant attitude as from Mrs. Liehrs and will not cooperate further with this company.

Currently having a good experience. I've been paid on time. I'm able to communicate well with agents who are managing the mystery shops/jobs. Shame they have many negative reviews.

Dishonest and unclear.
I don’t believe there are other words to describe this platform. In any case, I’d advise against working for them. I became suspicious when they never asked for a payment method. Despite that, I completed one task but never received any payment. Then I completed two more, for which they contested certain details they never specified, which resulted in them not approving the work.

I did several purchase shipment shops. I am yet too be paid. There is an exorbitant amount of 3 surveys for each assignment for $15 dollars. They rarely respond to emails but require a response in 12 hours. It is not a scam but you WILL be decieved into doing double the work that is justifiable for the pay. Plus requires an advanced computer knowledge for screenshot that many could struggle with despite that I missed multiple items and was in a depressing loop of returned surveys. Anyone with a brain will not do these shops they suck, take at least 2 months to pay and require so much work you could get more money panhandling on a busy sidewalk.

manipulated and scammed people with no intention to pay for the shop

Very sketchy and questionable practices!
I've worked with a lot of these different companies that do work like this and this one is one of the more sketchy ones I've dealt with.
They robbed me of payments twice and used really stupid excuses to deny such as the picture of the shipping label being shown on the package WHEN THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO SHOW WHAT KIND OF SHIPPING IS ON THE PACKAGE or to show it's destination! They would clearly arrange instructions in a way such that they would have an easy excuse to deny payment after receiving all of the data. As soon as I checked on them here after seeing numerous red flags I knew they would be a problem.

Do not work with this company as your chances of legitimately getting paid will be hit or miss and questionable at best!

Over the course of several years, I did dozens of interesting studies for Bareinternational. Thanks to visits to gas stations, I could save a lot on fuel, and audits in bars and hotels perfectly combined business with pleasure. Contact with the company's representatives is very good, the remuneration is adequate to the difficulty and, most importantly, always on time.

Z firma współpracuje od dłuższego czasu. Na początku dużo niepewności. Udało się je wszystkie wyjaśnić. firma płaci na czas. Ważne jest aby poprawnie wypełnić formularz płatności. Potem już z górki. Firma płaci w EUR a nie w PLN. Nie każe nagrywać rozmów z sprzedawcami. Chyba, że jest to badanie telefoniczne.

Świetna współpraca od wielu, wielu lat! Firma wypłacalna, ciekawe badania z przyzwoitym wynagrodzeniem.
