Don’t know much about the product.
But I also just got spammed by Zac.Gessner@myownvirtualpa.com
The video encoding seems to be broken. The stock videos on the website turn green every now and then.
Tasksbay appears to be somehow affiliated with graspskills.com and they use throw away domains for their spam campaigns.
tasksbay.com and myownvirtualpa.com are registered by Graspskills
The Tasksbay team handled my last project in a very professional and efficient manner. The project was completed before the deadline with all deliverables completed as per the scope. I received regular communication from the friendly and helpful staff. I will recommend Tasksbay to everyone for any admin or research project.
Hi Brian, Nice to have a comment always from you.
many thanks!
Good to hear they do good work because I just got spammed by them and the English grammar was very poor. The email address was graspskillsprojectmanagement.com, which has been accused of fraud in online reviews. Having had only this one email experience, I have to no idea what the veracity of that might be, but I would want to proceed with caution. Example from the spam: ” Tasksbay offers you with virtual assistance services to individuals, from small to medium businesses and even corporates with global connections. We can handle your personal as well as business tasks with the expertness and perfection…Administration is the backbone of many companies and organizations, the small important part that maintains all the other wheels turning, offering the approaches…” Completely forgivable as ESL, but not for an English speaking company presenting itself to clients
Dear Melody,
Thank you for your valuable information.
I am Rajesh, Business manager at Tasksbay.
I will look into the spam email which you have received and take necessary actions.
Please don’t compare Tasksbay with Graspskills PVT LTD as we are a different organisation.
Like other competitors, we do not have any trail service as we are confident in our services and provided 100% quality result in last 3 years. However, I would suggest you to try our services and I will provide you 5 days trail period with 5 hours of usage of VA and then you can write a review about our services.
You can contact me at Support@tasksbay.com
Hi, Rajesh –
I must agree with Melody about your company’s need for a good writer/copyeditor. I just spent some time looking at your website, and it is filled with various writing mistakes…incomplete sentences, incorrect grammar, etc. This makes your company look less than professional. Also, I saw on both your site and in your comment here the use of the word “trail,” when what I believe you mean to say is, “trial.” (Those are two very different words…when I saw it on your website, I thought it was just a typo, but since you used it twice in your comment here, I now believe you thought you were using the right word.)
I don’t write this to be hurtful, but, rather, to help you to make your business represent itself more professionally. From what I’ve seen with the writing, I would never hire your company to do anything that would involve producing something written of any kind.
Great observation! even I also noticed and informed them. Yeah.. it’s rectified.
Being a well wishers of Tasksbay… I must remember “A body of men assembled to rectify the mistakes of the diplomats” –
Hi Tasksbay, You have done a fabulous job on my behalf. I am glad to share my comment here. A long way to go. Believe, Becomes and make it happen.
