Reviews at Veer are just glacial - I uploaded images June 2nd and they're still pending. I don't know if it's worth spending time on them.

Large agencies like Veer really blow their trust with contributors. I thought that an established stock agency can handle it but obviously they can't.

They had an easy start getting a huge collection, all they had to do was implement an uploading, reviewing and billing system which they should have had for years.

Communication is there but actions are missing.

We need faster reviews, higher upload limits and more sales. Sales are so slow I don't know how it could be profitable for them anymore.
Maybe this is the beginning of the end...

I just found a rejected picture:

Tuna on bread with tomato, parsley and onion rings

and the reason for rejection is: Styling (clothing, hairstyle, make-up, props, etc.) appears to be inappropriate, messy, or dated.

This is from Veer without any respect and this is not serioes, or do they want me next time to have a hairdresser for my tuna? Maybe some stylist for onions rings?

ayzek- 

Could you send an email over to [email protected] with your account information?  This seems like it may be an issue with your tax and royalty forms rather than a site error, but I'll only be able to look into it if you email us directly.

Szakaly-

As mentioned in the email back and forth we had yesterday, that message is intended to be general (hence the 'props, etc.') and not necessarily meant specifically for model shots, though I can see where the confusion would stem from.  In the case of images of food we find unsuitable for our site, we will usually use a more general rejection message. 
Thanks for the feedback, we are always looking to hone our rejection messages, and due to the volume of food images we receive, it sounds like we could use some messaging specifically oriented for that subject matter.

I have the exact same problem.  Uploaded back in October, waited a couple months for my images to get approved, then never got a single sale.  I checked this weekend and noticed I had 0 views, and not a single image of mine appears in search.  What a titanic waste of time.
