We hired a student photographer for our 150 person wedding in London to photograph the evening portion of our wedding. It was a last minute booking, and we were so glad we booked! The person booked ca... Toon meer

General

Great support from admin staff, friendly clients, and useful resources provided for tutors for the financial education programme. Note that it can sometimes be difficult to find clients (especially in the summer!) and there can be problems regarding payments, but otherwise it is a good tutoring service.

I was really excited about the whole…

I was really excited about the whole idea. I paid for an hour arrange the teams meeting etc. however I feel that the information I was given and communication was not actually great. The whole process was about money and not what I wanted . I was offered advice that I already knew and all they did was look at my social media and tell me to do new videos , reels etc. I don’t feel that it was worth the money I feel it’s very misleading I paid for the hour never even bothered doing the meeting as I felt it would be a waste of time. Luckily I didn’t sign up for the package. It’s not a great experience and I wouldn’t recommend using the services. The company just kept asking me to sign up too the online package for the month very pushy unprofessional. I would avoid at all costs

Hi Samantha,

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry that you were not happy with the service. We have carefully audited all the communication and wanted to provide a detailed response:

• You hired a social media manager from MyPocketSkill for 1-hour, paying £13.99, to provide you with initial advice on your business "Top Dog Groomers”, where you wanted to know what you can do to increase visibility to customers, as your traffic is low and people do not follow your page or provide positive feedback on it.
• The young person responded to you within 3-hours of you approaching her and communicated promptly. She also offered to have a call with you to go through your brief and sent you the detail for the call. You asked her to look at the site and provide her thoughts, which she did promptly and provided specific suggestions relevant to your business. In our view there is nothing more the young person could have done within 1-hour initial consultation you paid for, given that you had declined the meeting that she had offered.
• The typical social media service that we provide is based on packages (a standard model for the industry), which carries only 1-month notice. We sent you one reminder to sign-up for that service.

We will continue to review our policies around matching and reminders and we’re sorry that it didn’t work out for you on this occasion.

Kind regards, MyPocketSkill Community Team

Fantastic service to connect you to very skilled young professionals

My Pocket Skill is a fantastic way to connect customers with perhaps smaller budgets to young people who are starting out in their profession. We were matched with an exceptionally talented photographer who did a stellar job photographing our wedding ceremony. And I would not hesitate in using MPS again. And I am reccomending our photographer wherever I can.

I have so much confidence!

As a digital marketer for a year on this platform, I had no idea what to do or where to go. But the MPS team walked me through it all and now I have the confidence to take these skills even further into so many different industries!

Awful customer service

My recent experience with MyPocketSkill has been frustrating from start to finish. The platform claims to support young people and families, but when something goes wrong, there is zero accountability.

After completing the verification and booking process, a lesson was cancelled without any notice or explanation. I reached out for support immediately, but no one responded for days. Despite this, the platform still took the payment — and instead of resolving the issue, they sent me an automated email asking me to rate the lesson… a lesson that never even happened.

To make matters worse, I was never refunded, and when I finally did receive a response, it was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. Rather than owning the mistake, they passed blame onto third parties and even told me to review their community guidelines — which felt like a way to deflect responsibility rather than offer a solution.

There is a clear lack of professionalism, manners, and customer service. It’s incredibly disappointing, especially for a platform that promotes itself as trustworthy and youth-focused. I would strongly advise others to be cautious before relying on this service.

Hi Francesca,

We’re sorry to hear that you didn’t have a positive experience of MyPocketSkill on this occasion. We do value your feedback and have investigated what happened.

Firstly, because MyPocketSkill works with young people, the safety and trust on the platform is paramount. Although most of the bookings on MyPocketSkill are delivered virtually, in your case you made an in-person booking for music coaching. This automatically means that we use a specialist provider to perform validation/verifications checks which is usually done safely and securely in the background with minimum annoyance. However, on this occasion there was a problem with the image you uploaded. We have since determined that our provider reported a problem with the quality of the image because of glare in the file uploaded to them – apologies if this information was not shared with you.

In the end our team worked with you to share an alternative version safely but this led to other issues with our automated moderation and ultimately to delays in resolving these issues.

There was no payment taken from your account, although sometimes this can show up as a pre-authorisation which is then usually automatically reversed once a booking lapses.

Sorry that this hasn’t worked out for you. As a startup with a very small team, we are constantly listening to feedback and making improvement to our safety and validation processes.

I hope you’ll consider us again in the future.

With best wishes,

Community Team, MyPocketSkill

This is such a fabulous website and has helped my daughter immensely. The young tutor we chose is perfect for my 11 year old daughter. She finds it easier to connect with her and enjoys the lessons!

Wedding Party Photographs - Sorted!

When the time came to book a photographer for our Wedding Party, I came across MyPocketSkill. I posted a brief quickly, asking for a local photographer who would be happy to pop to the venue for a few hours. Mo, our photographer, got in touch straight away and offered a fantastic price. The whole conversation was facilitated by MyPocketSkill and once I had booked, I paid the money to them, to release to Mo once the job was done. The whole thing was a breeze - I felt everything was really safe and secure, and we definitely hit upon a talent wishing to gain experience whilst saving us money in the process. Would completely recommend.

Great for Remote Jobs

MyPocketSkill is an amazing start to financial literacy and freedom. I’ve been able to connect with so many dissimilar people across the country and have enjoyed the flexibility and financial independence that comes with the platform!
Highly recommend especially if you’re an international student in a boarding school and want to start making money!!

Great for young people

I believe My Pocket Skill is a great way to young people to connect with businesses and gain some experience and some pocket money. For me, was a good way to get out of my comfort zone and feel more comfortable and confident about my skills and work. I totally recommend to check it out!

Great way to earn money.

Being a tutor on MyPocketSkill helped me gain valuable skills and experience for my personal statement and Cv. I would recommend it to any young person trying to earn any extra money.

They take no consideration of situation…

They take no consideration of situation and are so afraid of clients moving private. Everything needs to be controlled and they are extremely consistent in you rating them. They are also very pushy about the privacy and conditions of the platform.

Hi Emily,

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear that MyPocketSkill has not worked out for you on this occasion.

To explain our actions, we have certain metrics/criteria that we track through our platform, including promptness of response, rebooking rates and reviews. This process is really important to us since it helps us to recommend alternatives to our customers if you are not able to help, as well as maintaining a high standard of service to customers who book young people and ensuring that bookings/interactions are made through the platform.

If we see a consistent pattern of behaviours, then we do sometimes pause the ability to apply and we may provide guidance such as re-emphasising the importance of following all of our community guidelines. In your case we have had to pause your account for a second time. I appreciate that this may be frustrating, however you are welcome to reapply in 3-months’ time.

Thanks,
MyPocketSkill Community Team
