Rentacoder.com
Violated a contract for provision of software services

Internet & Web

If you are thinking about using sites such as www.rentacoder.com to hire cheap remote labour then think twice. You are not very far away from being ripped off.

Rentacoder.com is a site where software programmers bid for projects and then this site charges a commission based on the cost of project. You mostly get cheap labour with poor communication skills and in many cases, scamsters who bid for projects, try to convince you that they can deliver and then when they fail, they use legal clauses to hide their incompetence.

Unless you are a legal expert you will probably end up loosing all your money unless you are willing to spend time have internet arguments with some college dropout customer rep from rentacoder.com or worse, some internet thug sitting somewhere in a remote country.

In my case, I hired a romanian coder for a project that he claimed he could deliver in two days. He failed obviously and when I insisted on seeing progress, the guy showed me surprisingly poor code, complete lack of english understanding and worst, that he was having difficulty understanding the spec.

I disputed the matter but was told that offline correspondence (using yahoo chat, email) can not be held as admissible evidence in RAC - This is not as bad as RAC blatantly violating the buyer agreement by refusing to define what they call a status report and how the coder could have deemed to have met his obligations with respect to showing progress.

I have filed a county court claim against www.rentacoder.com in florida (hillsborough) and will encourage anyone who is facing similar issues with this site to come join me. We CAN cleanse the internet of such scams!!!

As for the coder, since most of Eastern Europe is now part of EU (what a shame..) it is also possible to file claims against offending coders in EU courts. I am based in the UK and will be doing this to claim damages. It is a simple process and can be done completely online using the small claims court. But if you are neither in North America nor EU then THINK! What options do you possibly have in case you trust a company like rentacoder.com or Exhedra Solutions and they decide to arbitrarily rule in your favour? Keep your money safe but if you HAVE been a victim of such fraud then ACT - you CAN WIN!
