Sarah-Jane Stubbs was banned from Singsnap after telling staff she would tell the other members about being harassed in private messages. Apparently, Singsnap staff told her that she was of no use to them with her free account and unless she paid money to upgrade to gold within the next few weeks, her account would be closed (banned). Extortion? Do they send messages like this to everyone?

Singsnap advertises that they are a free online karaoke community. It say's so on their front page. This is not our story. It is Sarah's. We'll share her experience with you. Here is Sarah's story in her words.

Sarah-Jane Stubbs 04/16/2011

I was a blue member on singsnap for three months and let me tell you from my experience, you only last on this site if you join gold members cliques seriously! Within six weeks of me being a member I got a pm from SingSnap Support stating my membership wouldnn't be worth anything, under threat and like a waste of time if I didn't start making friends with gold members instead of just singing and being judged as a loner by SingSnap! Yes singsnap was judging me just because I only was using this site to make recordings, isn't that the point though of a singing site and it also said how do you expect views and comments if you don't make yourself known by joining a group of gold members! This was said in a private message by singsnap support, not just by a singsnap member, the actual site was threatening my membership all on wether I joined a gold memberships group with the next six weeks or my account isn't active anymore! I bet you have never heard of that kind of
experience before. Any-way I replied asking what was going on with the sudden threats of my membership and they never even replied to explain the situation. A couple of weeks later, SingSnap staff were harrassing me saying I wasn't any use to them any-way as I to them couldn't afford a full membership so I wasn't good enough for them and the GOLD members and they knew this because there had been a big meeting between SingSnap Support and the staff! I couldn't believe my eyes and I replied threatening to tell other members on singsnap about their threatening messages and the evidence and minutes later it came up my account had been suspended! I nearly punched the computer I was so angry.
