http://openstudy.com/users/igreen#/updates/559453e4e4b0989cc8783fa6

Answer 1

I pretty much did all the work..no qualified helper ever came.

Answer 2

I am sorry for that D: Sometimes QH's are busy or not online.

Ill be happy to give you back your 10OB's if you really want it.

Answer 3

But you kinda got hep by uri

Answer 4

I think the money did go to waste so he should get his Ob's back. Since he was not helped by a QH.

Answer 5

you can email complaints@openstudy.com

Answer 6

^they take forever.

Answer 7

or contact@openstudy.com
or just message preetha

Answer 8

You should pm Preetha :) thats the fastest anything can get done :)

Answer 9

btw @iGreen all Terms and CoC apply to QH questions, Direct Answers are still not allowed

Answer 10

I see direct answers on QH questions all the time ._.

Answer 11

Uri isn't a qualified helper, so it doesn't exactly qualify as 'qualified help'

Answer 12

And she didn't help much.

Answer 13

then the QHs should get better training then, because DAs are still not allowed

Answer 14

Ye so you deserve your money back :)

Answer 15

@sleepyhead314 Nobody knows what a DA is

Answer 16

@sleepyhead314 they get 0 training.

Answer 17

direct ansers

Answer 18

I know what DA stands for

Answer 19

I asked @e.mccormick about it..

Answer 20

@pooja195 and I know
but they should get training >.>
or at least a reminder that they have to follow all openstudy's rules

Answer 21

I asked a previous question about it.

Answer 22

I thought they were supposed to get training or atleast thats what everyone was told >.>

Answer 23

^ it's true
but there has not been any training...

Answer 24

I wonder how the training would work .-.

Answer 25

a mock question sent in a form to analyize how each QH answers a question, then offer and critque them on how they should answer a question (if they give direct answer, etc)

Answer 27

Oh, I haven't read the most recent comments on there.

Answer 28

No

Answer 29

@TheSmartOne I should pay OpenStudy to answer my own question?

That makes a lot of sense

Answer 30

You asked for qualified help, but I don't see any question. So how is somebody supposed to help you?

Answer 31

Oh..I don't see it either..I think I accidentally deleted it..it was in a picture

Answer 32

Doubt it.

Answer 33

Lets not argue :D

@iGreen do you want your 10OB's back? so we can end this convo

Answer 34

You asked a few non-QH questions after that and deleted the questions too. Coincidence? I think not.

Answer 35

@jagr2713 I guess..? Isn't that kind of the point of the question?

@TheSmartOne I didn't "delete" the questions..I just edited "Solved" onto it..just to notify the other people I tagged in them..

Answer 36

Well ok i will give it to you... From my money

Lets leave this alone :D

Answer 37

@TheSmartOne As an Ambassador, you should be getting rid of conflict..not starting it.

Answer 38

and you were really desperate for quick help... I answered one of them and you replied too late and question disappeared ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Answer 39

@TheSmartOne No..I already figured the answer out..your answer was wrong, FYI.

Answer 40

@iGreen you're an ambi too, I'm pretty sure you know that you should contact Preetha instead of making a post ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Answer 41

Ok guys lets not fight over this...

I will give him his money back.. Problem solved :D

Answer 42

@jagr2713 That's OpenStudy's job..not yours..lol.

Answer 43

Well i am trying to solve this problem... and plus its just 2dollars no big deal :D

Answer 44

I appreciate it, but you shouldn't \(\Huge\ddot\smile\)

Answer 45

But i should :D

If i didnt get help from my Qh question then i would want my money back as well :D

Answer 46

Did you get it @iGreen

Answer 47

Yes, I did..

Answer 48

\(\Huge\ddot\frown\)

Answer 49

Great :D

Have fun :D and hope to see you asking another QH question soon :D

Answer 50

>:D

Answer 51

Nooo lol we will keep on doing this lol

Answer 52

lol keep it :D

Answer 53

xD

Never

Answer 54

Cmon man i cant even refund it :D Just take it @iGreen :D

Answer 55

Nope :P

Answer 56

You guys realize you're sending each other emails each time you keep sending back the OB? lol

Answer 57

Lol i barely check my email lol and that email is not for important stuff so i am good :D

Answer 58

Same^

Answer 59

I check my e-mail once a month..or more.

Answer 60

lol

Answer 61

1. Emailing complaints@openstudy.com for a refund doesn't work. Prior to @iGreen 's post, another user has tried to get his money back, but his emails ended up being bounced.

2. I do agree that there are some QH's that don't help too well and on one of the QH questions, I ended up having to bail out one QH and do the work for an hour (grits teeth).

3. Let me recall some of the rules that Ambassadors must follow:

There are some key behaviors that Ambassadors must express
◘ As an Ambassador, you agree to always be kind and understanding
◘ As an Ambassador you should let users know you appreciate them
◘ Congratulate and reward positive behavior, and discourage negative behavior
◘ Lead by example!

And I have not seen it lately towards one of them. You know who you are.
First, stop wrongly accusing people for something they didn't do
Proof: http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/559429bee4b0113e4fb7db30

Second, @iGreen is NOT an Ambassador and his QH question is still there. It was a probability question.
http://openstudy.com/users/igreen#/updates/559453e4e4b0989cc8783fa6

Answer 62

I'll probably be put on blast, but then again everyone needs to follow the rules regardless of Ambassador Status, QH status, or Mod status.

Answer 63

@UsukiDoll

@iGreen was announced as an ambassador a month ago, and is currently going through training :p

This time they decided that the new ambis would get the A after training

Answer 64

I saw the the training post a while back but unless that phase has been completed, at least to me, it's still not ambi...yet.

It's more like Ambassador - In Training status.

Answer 65

@UsukiDoll So you're saying that OS ripped me off?

Answer 66

OS steals people's money? I don't think so..there should be some way to get it back..

Answer 67

Try asking Preetha.

Answer 68

Great question..... !! I would suggest that OS should keep \(OS~ Bucks\) return button for QH users, in case they couldn't help...just press the button select the user and amount and payback. \(That~doesn't~make~OS~a~stealer~!\)

Answer 69

I know that OS isn't a thief.

Answer 70

If you didn't receive Qualified Help, then why pay for it? It's like buying a new toaster at a store and it ends up not working. You don't want to keep a broken toaster do you? Return it and get your money back. As others already mentioned, ask Preetha. It's probably the fastest way since the email OS provided doesn't work too well.

Answer 71

@Koikkara There should be a "Return Owlbucks" button...in red :)
