kgb – Answer Questions

Updated on: by Amy Kennedy
kgb Work @ Home positions offer the opportunity to learn, grow, and have fun; to be part of an elite group of kgb Special Agents who enjoy flexible scheduling; a commute-free day – saving time, money, and the planet. You can also enjoy the total eradication of a dress code policy. -kgb.com

KGB.com is another question answer site. They are based out of New York and also hire agents from a variety of European countries as well as Canada.  I just did a review of 63336, a reported partner of KGB. Also, similar to KBG and 63336 is ChaCha. KGB is a company you have probably heard about before. Rather as a work at home option or from their popular commercials, as you can see on on their site here. As an agent for KGB you can help find answers to questions being asked by people through their text messaging services.

What Others Say About KGB

My Experience at KGB

I believe it was in 2009 when KGB went mobile. Originally KGB had mentioned paying agents the 25 cents that ChaCha had just taken from us (they dropped it to 10/20 cents). The frustration with ChaCha lowering their pay turned many frustrated ChaCha agents to apply for KGB when they opened. I applied, passed their test and was offered a position. However, at that time they had a requirement of something around 6 hours a week scheduled. Also, the pay did not turn out to be any better than ChaCha. I enjoyed my freedom to come and go and work as I please at ChaCha and I was not sure I could fit in the time at KGB with my other work at LiveOps. Therefore I turned down KGB. I have never regretted it. I still prefer ChaCha.

After receiving a settlement check from kgb, I learned that they were ordered to pay out 1.3 million for not following US labor laws, and they now only hire people from the Philippines.
