It probably was just a typo. The poster was a one hit wonder and offered no explanation. Could have just had beef with them in general. Or he could have provided the wrong PayPal address or home address if a check was being sent, refused to provide an SSN, who knows.

I did my first NSSN shops in April and, altho the stated policy is less than a month for payment, I haven't received it. I e-mailed at 6 weeks and got an e-mail back from the scheduler that she would look into it. I'm about to e-mail again because apparently either she didn't look into it or they didn't have any money ...... so I'm in the boat with stacey.....

You'll get paid on the 12th...of NEVER...EVER...EVER!!!!! That at least made me laugh in a sad way. The only time in all these years I have ever been shafted. Dirtbags.

OMG U too. it took me three months to get paid 4 shops I did for this company and excuse after excuse before I got paid. How does she stay in business?

Sorry, but I do not understand this post. Did you do one for them and get paid on time or what?

Cynb. New to reading about them? I had an email saying awesome shop available.... awesome for them not the shopper.... their history shows free reports if they do not pay the shopper.

Update on NSSN ..... on Saturday I received a check to cover my April shops. Their stated time frame is "less than a month" but it took 3 months and several e-mails. But I did get paid. Probably won't shop for them again. I don't like it when companies don't live up to their own stated payment terms, and I don't like to have to beg for my money. I figured I earned it by doing the shop .... I shouldn't have to earn it again.

What is Cynb? I have never heard of them. I googled and nothing came up for Cynb.

JASFLALMT read the names of the posters.... cynb was a poster..............

another company not pay name
Midwest Merchandising Services add this to the list....

Gotcha. I only read the last four posts. The way you wrote it, it sounded like you were talking about a company, since you didn't quote the message like most people who post here do. When you quote the message, it is easier for those who are reading to follow what you mean.

I have been posting quite awhile JASFLAMT. We each have our own style.

I wasn't telling you how to post. I was explaining how it made it hard to follow what you write when you don't quote the message.

To the people that say Castforce do not pay I have had no problem with them. I have been doing it for 3 months now and have received 3 checks on the payout day.

Always like to know who is doing what to whom so I can file it. Thanks

Hi there-

At this time, we do not. The closest current open shops to you are in Atlanta, GA.

Thanks for asking though!

Tracy

If anyone is owed money for work in Wisconsin, contact
State Of WI.
Dept of Workforce Development
Equal Rights Division
Look online for the electronic Labor Standards Complaint and fill out and submit. One of the women I worked with this week was telling me of a company that she had waited 7 months for payment from. She heard all the excuses from resubmit your reports-to "Who are You? when did you work for us?. She got her money in 3 weeks after filing. Perhaps other states have similar divisions-Maybe this would be a good reference to develop for all the hard working shoppers/merchandisers that are stiffed for what they are owed. I never work more than 1 pay period ahead of a check. No pay, no play. 2 weeks max. When the nice scheduler calls with work, I very nicely say, I'm sorry, I can not commit to any additional work before I am payed. Keeps my losses down. And checks coming promptly.
