Same story here, no payment!

I was eventually paid in March 2023 after tellingLynk I will update this every Monday morning.

I wouldn't work for LynkGlobal again. I have worked for other consultancies since Lynk and have been paid on time each time.

Always the same story they call you and arrange a client meeting for consultation.
next 30 days no news about payment and then disapper.

Consulting engagement done - failed to pay.

Claim to be in an alliance with UBS global and ISO 27001 certified

Consulting engagement done - failed to pay within the promised 30 days. Followed up - received a promise to pay 3 months later - failed to pay as promised.

When I advised them that "correspondence to creditors advising indefinite delays in payment" amounts to a declaration of bankruptcy and that continuing to trade after this is fraud, and then posting reviews on Social Media and Trusteer, payment was made within 4 days

Don’t trust contact from lynkpeople.com
wont entertain a further engagement from them.

@UBS ... do you really want your brand associated with people who behave like this?

Same as others: did the consult, then notified that there were bank problems in Shanghai, and now notified that nothing will happen until further notice. Not acceptable.

Lynk Global fail to honour payment for consultation done in July 2022 till now despite promises after promises from their finance...unbelievable! Is this a scammer?

I haven't received any payment after three months. Tried to raise the issue several times via the contact form on their website without getting any response. I have never experienced such things with other advisory networks.

I've had the same experience as many other reviews with no payment on a consultation that I did 4 months ago. Same excuse with COVID affecting the banking system in Shanghai, with unfulfilled promises on payment dates which they have missed several times now. Beware of this company if you expect to be paid, because it won't happen. Tom T

I provided consulting on September 7th and have not been paid the $274.17 I am owed. It says that payment will be received within 30 days and it has been beyond that with no clear solution. I reached out today and have not yet received an answer.

I would give them a zero if that was an option. I was told I had been preselected for a telephone session at $200 per hour. - prorated. I was required to fill out all of the typical fiduciary stuff that they require to cover themselves legally, as is typical. Call was canceled and then rescheduled by the client. I was asked what I was seeing in the market so I elaborated. The client then cut me off after 11 minutes and said they decide whether to continue the call at a later date. When I asked about payment, the Lynk manager informed me for the first time that it had been an unpaid “vetting” call. Clearly misrepresentation. My advice would be to decline assignments from Lynk unless you are prepaid. Their approach, in conjunction with their Australian financial client, was shameful and misleading

Very frequent communication before the consultation. Then silence after. Promised to pay within 30 days but that has come and gone. Making one excuse after another but none are valid. Probably a scam company.

Update:
It is now 17 Nov [almost 2 months] and while they have sent some emails with excuses for late payment and even a couple saying payment has been made, so far no funds have landed in my account.

Did a consulation in July. Still was not paid the USD 300 fee within the promised 30-day period

Made multiple follow ups a month later but was ignored for at least a week. Finally got someone to respond and was promised that I'd get paid late August or early September. That came and went.

Followed up again. Thank goodness I got a response quicker than a week. Was once again given the same excuse about COVID and Chinese banks being closed. Was promised to be paid by end of October.

Here we are now. Still no payment.

UPDATE 11/11/2022:
Asked for an update on Nov 1. They got back to me at Nov 11. Again, extending their promised timeline to early January 2023. Stay away from this company. Either they are undermanned or you don't matter enough for them to bother to act with any sense of urgency.

UPDATE 02/28/2023:
As per my last communication, I was told that my payment shall be administered by end of February and that they "do not anticipate any further delay from this due date, and on the contrary, are working to expedite and clear this earlier, as soon as [Lynk's] capacity permits."

I asked for an update today. Of course, once again, they are extending it again to May 2023.

They're literally just stringing people along. Don't support this company.

Scam, they call you multiple times before consultancy, post that they will ignore you like your ever exist. For more than 40 days, No payment received. No communication was received. That person Ayush who called, never receive my call or all callbacks. DON'T TRUST.

No payment. Had a consultation Sept 13th. Now it's Oct 20th, no payment, no communication. They are an unprofessional scam company.

Update: 2 months to pay something which other consulting companies pay in 5 business days.

Update: Contacted Pranav as instructed by the reviewer. Here's their excuse:

We apologize for the delay in the length of time it is taking you to receive your payment.

The extended lockdown in Shanghai earlier this year, on account of the pandemic, is causing delays in the banking system, which is subsequently causing delays in cash operations for Lynk, its clients and expert payments globally.

Rest assured, our finance team is continuing to process all due payments and we expect that yours will be credited around Early to Mid November.

We greatly appreciate your continued support and patience, and we will keep you updated on any developments as they happen.

I was contacted by Zenali from Lynk about a project that she thought I could assist their client with.
Following a review of the client requirements, I confirmed that this was an area that I could add value and answer their detailed questions.
The call was set up professionally and I thoroughly enjoyed the discussions with their client.
Payment was received in full and in line with our agreement.

Worked a consultation in June and still haven’t been paid. Have had several emails with the payment team including Pranav, but the excuses for lack of liquidity caused lock down in Shanghai aren’t convincing. Look to avoid this company based on their payment processing abilities. I gave the company an extra 30 days and the new timeframe for promised payment came and went so I’m posting this review to warn others.

This seems like a scam! I took part on a consultation which went well and client was satisfied with my services. Nearly three months later Lynk Global still hasn't paid me for my services, I have claimed several times directly to them, they promised payment before a certain date, and never complied with.

Words most appropriate for Lynk team : Professional, Responsive, Transparent and Quick TAT for project closure .

Loved the responsiveness of the team. Delays could happen, but the manner in which it is communicated and resolved makes a big difference. Pranav was great in that. Enjoyed the client interaction too.

I hv been associated with Lynk global Inc for long time. The support, coordination & resolution by Mr Pranav , Sr Exe , Accounts found to be extremely good & helpful. I too aware of few setbacks for timely payments due to external factors beyond thier control. Overall the Lynk team are skillful, great support & professional in thier approaches. Let us support Lynk team to make better world of entreprenuers & good cause.
