  I signed up to join Arise Virtual Solutions as an Independent agent under an *** in May 2025, i am a vet and wanted to get an extra income on the side.I paid for a background check $30 and paid the Classroom deposit fee of $50 for a class i was to start on September 2nd 2025, which would be the first.On August 29th, the *** informed me that my account was suspended and i was blocked from having access; the *** partner stated that Arise had security concerns with regards to my location and that he did not have any specific information and that it was unfortunate they did not have the courtesy to email me.Whereas i have never trained nor serviced any Arise account, this experience has left me with a bitter taste in my mouth, the lack of courtesy insinuates that Arise mistreats its affiliates and has a very low opinion of them I would want for Arise to refund my background check fees, i would not have paid for it if i knew this would happen; i have never been trained on any of their protocols and its unfair i may have been punished for matters that are not of my own making.Either restore my account or refund my background fees and classroom deposit.

  As a B2B Independant contractor since 2022, and since July 2025 declining 2 underpaid Arise offers below $14 per hr, and after disputing several QA evals, I have had login issues effecting my revenue, that Arise refuses to explain. On Friday Aug 28 2025, I began getting errors accessing the Arise Portal, but rcvd message from ***** ****** and ******** ******* that i exceed QA scores of 99%? Its no surprise that technology issues would show up as this is a daily occurence with Arise. Despite these habitual tech issues, Arise retains thousands of committed and underpaid contractors who are interrupted daily from completing servicing tasks significantly reducing their already low rate, not allowing maximum revenue. Since it was another normal day of tech issues, I called the number for tech. ************. After 2 voicemails a nice gentleman called back saying he was mgt escalations and provided email tech support.I emailed tech *****************************************************, and ***** *****, ******** Buaccio, *** ***** ****, ***** ******* and no one can help.Its not unusual for tech to be of no help as i remember fixing major issues myself after hours with tech. Despite successfully changing my password on ********, clearing cache, cookies, updating Chrome and Windows Updates, got all the pw reset emails, even reported my account as "locked". I received a quick message back I was not locked and to change the password. I was allowed to change my password. Despite all this stilll the message displays that I don't have access to ********************************* contact your administrator to no avail I was still able to service my hours on the Modivcare Program even though this tech error occured, i was granted full access to take live calls but with no Arise Chat Support.Service Now Tech emailed steps how to change my password after told them I already sucessfully changed my password. To date I have not received anything in writing to either help get back into the systems nor ending my contract.

  I am writing to you today to request assistance in resolving an issue regarding my participation in the Arise platform. My name is ***** Small, and my CSP ID is *************************, my Service Operating Work (SOW) agreement was terminated. I believe this termination was unwarranted, stemming from an incident involving an upset customer where I adhered to the provided script. On December 29 2024 I reached back out to Arise registration to activate my IBO and it was activated. I have several opportunities but unable to register. Since then, I have attempted to apply on the Arise platform on several occasions. However, each time I apply for an opportunity, my application is rejected due to the previous termination of my SOW. This has been a persistent issue, Ive been registered back with arise for almost a year and I am seeking a resolution.I would greatly appreciate it if you could investigate this matter and determine why I am ineligible for future opportunities. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss this further.Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.Sincerely,***** Small

  Im reaching out regarding the recent termination of my SOW, which I believe was unfair given the circumstances. I previously reached out for assistance and clearly explained the situation that occurred during the call in question. At that time, I was advised to unassign myself from the jobs so that they could be reassigned to others, and I was specifically instructed not to leave them assigned to myself because when they call back they wont be able to find the job order if I leave it assigned to myself.I also confirmed this with Barbie, who reiterated that I should not leave the jobs assigned to me. I followed the guidance provided, yet my SOW was still terminated. Additionally, as shown in the communication below, I attempted to seek support from Ebony, but received no response.Given that I followed the instructions I was given and made good-faith efforts to resolve the situation, I respectfully request that my SOW be reinstated. I would appreciate a review of this matter, as the current outcome does not reflect the actions I took based on the direction provided. How am I supposed to call the customer if after I reboot the information goes away? You couldnt hear me because my sound wasnt working. I reached out to ebony about the issue and instead of responding I get terminated? How is that even legal?On Tue, Jun 17, 2025 at 9:30PM ***** **** ************************** wrote:Hello this is incorrect! I would never purposely disconnect or not call a customer back. I would like to review this call as I do my job with integrity and do not want such reports attached to my name or have my SOW wrongly terminated! Lastly on 6/5 I was in training and I had system issues that day and I had to reboot because my sound was not working. I cant call the customer back if my sound is not working and waste the customer time. Also I was told if I leave the job assigned to me, when the customer calls back they wont be able to find the job!

  On May 29, 2025, I paid $50 to Arise Virtual Solutions ($30 for a background check and $20 for a training course deposit) to enroll in their ******************** ********** program beginning June 5, 2025. The course instructor and the platform stated the $20 deposit would be refunded after completing the first day of class. I completed two full weeks of training and never received the refund.I reached out to Arise several times through their support chat (the only contact method available), and each time I was told a support ticket would be created or that the refund process could take up to 30 days. However, on June 20, 2025, I was unexpectedly removed from the program entirely with no warning or explanation.When I contacted Arise again, I was told I had failed the background check. This was confusing, as I have no criminal history. I reached out to Asurint, the background screening company, and they confirmed in writing that my background was clear but the *** verification form had never been submitted, so the screening was incomplete due to Arises internal process failure. Asurint emphasized that Arise is the decision-maker.Despite showing this documentation to Arise, they repeatedly closed my tickets with generic responses and offered no resolution. Their final email stated the background check was not successful and my enrollment was canceled yet this directly conflicts with what the background screening company reported.I am requesting a full refund of $50, as I was removed unfairly from a program I paid for, was never refunded, and received no adequate support. I also incurred additional costs (equipment purchase) and turned down other job opportunities based on this commitment.

  regarding significant professional misconduct and system manipulation I experienced under ARISE management while attempting to serve as a certified Key Issues Experienced:I was denied real-time access to platform tools during live Zoom training sessions.The training offered by ARISE was disorganized, incomplete, and misleading about system certification requirement was falsely marked as a "no call/no show" despite being logged into ******* and attempting self-led participation.The instructor showed unprofessional conduct after I provided valid feedback about training clarity.I was misled into believing a certification was state-required when it was not.

  Subject: Second Complaint Against Arise Virtual Solutions Technical Manipulation & Systemic Roadblocks in Training

  
  

  To Whom It May Concern,

  
  

  This is my second formal complaint against Arise Virtual Solutions, and I am now raising serious concerns about deliberate technical manipulation and deceptive training practices used to disqualify or discourage applicants during onboarding.

  
  

  I am currently engaged in the Simtrain training simulation, which is required for onboarding. The system is non-functional in critical areas:

  The ************** button does not respond as instructed.

  Required key combinations do not register or activate the next step, despite being entered correctly.

  The system times out repeatedly, forcing me to restart sections unnecessarily even though I follow every instruction correctly and promptly.

  These issues create artificial failure and prevent progress, not because of user error, but because of technical flaws.

  Let me be clear:

  I am not a novice. I learned to type in the early '90s using *********** before modern computers became widespread. I am highly proficient with keystrokes, systems, and procedures. So when I say the simulation is rigged to fail or misfire, it's not user incompetence it's systemic sabotage masked as training.

  On top of that, after a tech representative accessed my system remotely and fixed some issues, I was suddenly locked out of Genesys, which had been accessible before. This raised serious red flags for me.

  The behavior Ive experienced amounts to manipulative gatekeeping using technical interference. Arise continues to pretend to address these issues while deliberately dragging them out, creating an illusion of support. This is not support this is gaslighting through tech.

  I believe Arise is using their training system and tech process to:

  Create frustration loops,

  Force timeouts,

  Misattribute blame to the agent,

  And ultimately filter people out under false pretenses.

  This behavior is discriminatory, unethical, and potentially exploitative of independent workers who invest time, money, and equipment to meet Arises onboarding standards. Many wont speak up but I am.

  I request:

  1. A full investigation into Arises Simtrain functionality and validation logic;

  2. An audit of how tech support changes may have led to being locked out of critical platforms like Genesys;

  3. Oversight into how Arise uses technical barriers during training to selectively exclude qualified applicants;

  4. Transparency into how errors are logged and flagged during simulation training.

  The message is simple: Stop playing mind games with people who are qualified, serious, and ready to work. I hope the BBB takes this seriously, because what Arise is doing is far beyond simple tech issues its a pattern of obstruction.

  
  

  Sincerely,

  Graceantoniette Crespo

  Just as I figured I was tech stalled and then dropped from the class this is a complete sham . I want a refund and compensation for wasting my time, leaving my prior employment because of the pressure of training. And the equipment I had to purchase

  My Arise profile has been unfairly suspended. The reason given was because a security audit wasn't completed. I never received a security audit. Had I received it, I would've immediately filled it out & completed it. I'm doing everything in my power to fix this issue. I've talked to Partner Support & the ****************** They told me to contact the **************** which I have. I've sent six (6) emails to the *************** with all the pertinent info they've requested (CSPID, name, address, phone #, email) & haven't received a response yet. The first email I sent was on 5/20/2025. It's now 6/9/2025. I'm sure someone has received & seen my emails by now.I've worked with Arise for over 7 years. This is not how you treat people. I need someone to reach out to me to let me know what I need to do to get my account reinstated. To continue to receive & ignore my emails isn't right. I've been more than *********** simply want to know what steps I need to take to fix this issue. I think I deserve that much.They made a ************** have every opportunity to correct said mistake, but refuse to. I want my profile reinstated immediately.

  6/2/2025 Pay was short by 3 hours. ***** is still owed. Arise is a scam company that pays below minimum rates and shorts hours on every paycheck. They charge 5% of your pay to work for them and ***** service fee. They cap your hours so you can not make the contract hours you agree to work.

  I was initially offered to work through Arise from a provider SOLUTIONS ************* which is now no longer in business. I have tried contacting them by email **************************************** which came back undeliverable. I also emailed the manager Deron *** email ******************** but have not received a response since January 2025. I recently reach out to Arise advising them of this issue asking to be dropped from this company being I have just paid for another drug test and background check. Arise informed me after I provided proof the company or emails or no longer active. I searched this company on ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** and it shows business no longer active and provided it to Arise. They are still unwilling to manually drop me from that call center so that I can work. I don't know what else to do or who to contact when the company no longer exist. How would they even be able to drop me if they no longer have the business? This is very stressful and is mentally & emotionally effecting me.
