Comments on: WeGoLook Review: Get Paid to Look at Things! (Earn up to $200) https://moneypantry.com/wegolook-review/ Thu, 24 Aug 2023 15:49:32 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.6.2 By: Stephen Hendricks https://moneypantry.com/wegolook-review/#comment-242289 Mon, 11 Jul 2022 02:01:18 +0000 http://moneypantry.com/?p=8673#comment-242289 In reply to Lynn Hocraffer.

You failed to conduct your look in the correct fashion. You NEVER show up at a site without contacting the appropriate person at the site. That person’s name is almost always in the look instructions. One of the conditions to do a CarOffer look is to make sure the vehicle is accessible (all four sides) and free from trash inside. Bad Weather is also a reason NOT to do a look.

You can always wait even if you miss the “due date” you’ll have to explain why you missed it. Wego will sometimes assign a look which is due at a date that has passed. They are supposed to always make sure the due date is the next day (or more), but Dealers may be closed on unexpected dates causing you to miss.

Don’t show up with a task (such as delivering a vehicle, without knowing that the dealer will accept it. If you are doing a Car Offer Transport, there are many suburban/rural areas that have no Lyft service. There is no way that I know of to find out if Lyft works where you are going.

And you won’t know what kind of vehicle you will be moving unless you call. Some people cannot drive manual transmissions or electric vehicles. Wego does not ask this. Owners of vehicles to be transported often fail to remove their tags and clean out the trash before you get there even though you have reminded them to do so.

Also, NEVER go to any look until you have verified where it is actually located. In this area they are often a considerable distance away from the address reported in look instructions. Many of these are provided by Insurance Companies whose information is incorrect.

I find that many times a vehicle to be looked at (for any reason) is not where it’s listed in the Wego app. I ran into one where the vehicle was impounded by the Police. I told Wego and they paid me a trip fee for having gone to a failed look.

If Wego calls you, that suggests that no one has taken a look whose due date is getting close. You might be able to be paid more than shows in the App. But it may also be a look no one wants.

I do not suggest using ANY Google products due to privacy issues with them (spying on your use of the internet). I use a secure encrypted mail service which will automatically put email from Wego into separate folders for me. I do, however use Google maps to find true distance and sometimes what the destination looks like.

I’ve been working for WeGoLook since August 2021. At this time this is the only income my family and I have. My previous job of almost 13 years eliminated my job when COVID hit. I haven’t found “the perfect, flexible, steady job” yet. Anyways in August I decided to see what being a Looker was all about. I didn’t want to do a whole lot this month because I didn’t know if I’d really get paid. So I did just under $100. In November I did 18 and then in December I did 49 looks. It is definitely good money when the work is there. I’ve declined looks that the pay was low and the milage was further away. I like to get at least a dollar a mile for the drive and usually won’t take it unless there’s a group of them to do so I make it worth the drive. Since I’ve started things have picked up some until now. This week has been slow for some reason but I’m thinking things will pick back up once people start getting their tax money. In the meantime I’ve been searching for other companies that do these same type of inspections but haven’t had any luck so if anyone knows of any please share.

I signed up, got set up, watched the videos, and finally accepted my first Look. The description said 26 miles away, and just take a few pictures of a car for sale. It was a bad weekend, ice storm. I was not going to accept it but they actually called me and ASKED ME to take it. They were urgent, it needed done, so I thought I might as well – once the storm was over. The job was actually 36 miles away, an hour each way on bad roads. The Dealership was not expecting me. The car was not ready, covered in snow and ice. It took me over 3 hours to take 40 pictures plus 40 more items including tire treads. I nearly froze – for $28. Not per hour, for the whole job! Chump change. They called yesterday, wanting me to repeat. I am now ‘on vacation.’ I might try again in Summer.
