Waste of time

Frequently, the ap will accept the picture of the receipt saying it has all the necessary info and at a later time will dispute it being valid and not count it.

Does Anyone Have a Problem w/PayPal and Rec. Hog

So far so good except I want to know has anyone lost $30 when using PayPal to get paid. Somehow I chose PayPal to get $5 and when I looked at my Debit card it said a Gift card company took out the money in the amount of $30. At around the same time I requested payment for Receipt Hog. Having a hard time getting the $30 back

Not responsive to rewards questions.

Not responsive to rewards questions.
Not getting emails to get redemptions to rewards such as Amazon. Lots of rejected receipts ie; "unreadable" Too much "No date" retakes blah blah etc.
If they want to stay in business they must improve. Waste of time and honest efforts to earn a couple of bucks and that takes away the enjoyment of a little passtime. Please get your act together!
Ps: like the surveys and slots? Good schtick!

Fraudulent App

Fraudulent App, Do not do business with them. I am surprised they have a 4.6 stars. Their app wasn't working for an extended period of time therefore I was logged out and couldn't log in. In that time frame my points expired which is completely crazy because I worked for years to get my points. Now they have my data and nothing to show for it.

Will be deleting and don't recommend anyone download this app. If for any reason their app malfunctions you will lose your points.

Scam, bait n switch.

I have been with receipt hog for a really long time and I've made around 20 dollars a year which is fine really. It had a lot of issues, claiming duplicate receipts, rejecting some very valid ones and increasing the payout requirements several times over the years but I never complained about that.

This year i managed to refer a lot of people from my uni to sign up with my referrals and I managed to reach the $40 payout twice. On the 2nd time the redemption never came and my account was disabled.

I contacted support and they straight up mentioned that I violated the terms and conditions by submitting fraudulent referrals. Keep in mind that I made sure that almost every single referral of mine was real on the spot to avoid this same exact scenario. I later realized that the highest payout is an illusion to bait and switch after selling your data.

About a week later, I left a 1 star review on the app store to explain my situation and they replied to me and kept sticking to their story saying i was providing fraudulent referrals and ever since every single person I referred had their users disabled despite most not using the app since my referral.

It's just a bait and switch method like the others have mentioned. Your data is valuable and avoid selling it to these cheap money grubbers.

They just use automated replies to avoid confrontation like the one that will show up under this review ''As explained to you over email, your account goes against our Terms and Conditions. Thanks for understanding.'' I requested proof of my referrals being fraudulent and they just replied with an automated message about my account going against the terms and conditions ''Receipt Hog reward funds are generated by our ability to report on household spending habits. Without reliable data, we would not be able to reward users for their receipts. By protecting our data, we are also protecting our ability to reward. Please keep in mind that we reserve the right to revoke all earned funds when suspicious behavior is witnessed.'' No proof of suspicious behavior and no explanation over a 4 email discussion.

Terrible app with lots of issues…

Terrible app.It either rejects legitimate and current receipts or gives you the points and a day or two later takes the points back with some bs message saying “receipt blurry” or “old receipt “ and the receipts they reject always seem to be the more expensive ones where you get 15 or 20 coins.Checked the app today and found out a $148 receipt they gave me 20 points for days ago was now rejected and my points taken away as well as another expensive receipt that was approved then rejected and points taken away.While I did like the app for awhile it has become too annoying and has too many issues so I will be deleting it and looking for a better app.

Save your time and effort!

I have been using the app since July, diligently scanning receipts. At first, everything seemed fine: a small initial test payout (5 EUR) worked seamlessly. This built trust, so I spent months saving up to reach the 40 EUR tier.

However, the moment I requested the 40 EUR payout, my account was disabled without warning. It feels like a classic "bait and switch" tactic: small amounts are paid out to hook users, but as soon as you try to cash out a significant amount, your account gets locked.

They were happy to accept my shopping data for months, but when it came time to pay up, I was kicked out. Support only responds with canned messages and shows zero interest in resolving the issue.

Conclusion: You invest months of work, provide valuable data, and end up with nothing.

Don't use this app. The past two times I have requested my money Receipt Hog has rejected the claim citing some problem with the receipts I have entered over months. In my opinion that is very unfair. I deleted app

Be careful - Delayed payment or No payment...

Back then, I was the one who gave 5 stars for fast payment. HOWEVER, now, the payment process has been made very complicated => There is very late payment or No payment and, it is just a waiting game only to test your patient OR until you forget your payment from Receipt Hog. It's like do they ever issue payment or not? Be careful and, do NOT submit any receipt until you receive any previous payment OR be prepared to forget your efforts and payment.

REJECTS OVER HALF THE RECEIPTS

This app rejects more than half my receipts. I re-enter them and rejected again. Seems to me the receipt that has a biggest dollar amount is rejected. There is no one to report this to either. I am going to uninstall it on my phone as it does nothing! I would say it is not worth it!

It does take a bit for the points to add up, but i feel like that's any type of receipt add. In the end they all are points that you wouldn't be getting if you weren't scanning receipts.
