Anyone else having problems with Respondent?

I've been using the platform for a couple of years now and although projects seem to be few and far between I have always enjoyed participating. Last month I got invited to a project, completed it and never got paid. When I tried to message the the researcher...no response. I elevated the problem to Respondent's team and I get a response today saying that this person slipped through the cracks and shouldn't have been allowed to post a project on their site. So, no e-mail letting me know? So basically I wasted my time and because they missed her not meeting their requirements they won't pay for the study. Two days ago I also was invited to something else which was pretty high paying and self guided. I accepted the invite and got to work on the tasks. I was halfway through (a good 12 in depth questions) and went to finish today and it says the project is closed that they have enough responses. So another study that I wasted my time and didn't get paid a dollar for it. The answer to this problem was it was on a first come first served basis. The completion date isn't for another 5 days. They shouldn't have allowed me to answer half the questions before they said they no longer needed my participation. I just feel like the site is no longer trustworthy and not worth my time.
