One of the first free toys I received was from Utimi through their testing program. It initially looked like a way to try a toy and have them make changes to create a better product, but after reviewing my first toy with them, I received an email requesting that I change my review on their Amazon listing from 4 stars to 5 stars, or their boss would cut their pay.
That rubbed me the wrong way, since they did pay me $15 to make that review, so it feels as if they are just trying to pay for 5 stars and guilt-trip me to do it with the threat of their boss punishing them if I don’t.
Does anyone else have experience with Utimi? Is this usual? I’m starting to think I don’t want to work with them now due to this.
maybe the person behind that email is new or not pr trained LOL. that’s a silly thing to say if true
