Curinos? Anyone done a shop for them

I'm getting e-mails from Curinos about account openings at banks and whatnot. Anyone done a shop for them? Any pointers?

One of my very favorite MSCs ever, in almost 20 years of MSing. ! Super helpful schedulers and project managers. Straightforward guidelines, pay commensurate with requirements. What's not to to like.

Have video cam; will travel

Poor customer service? Don't get mad; get video.
I was only able to do one shop for Curinos in March - it was a credit card account inquiry at a popular department store while making a purchase, which could be returned. It only paid $30, but the mall is a couple of miles away and I love their Starbucks location. I keep receiving email from them, but none I've qualified for. I've stopped wasting my time, because the shops say that I'm qualified to self-assign, but then it tells me to apply. When I apply, I get absolutely no indication that anything is wrong, but there is nothing pending in 'My Apps'. Then I email the scheduler, only to find out that I am not qualified for the shop due to my demographics. She says that the shoppers can't find out why they don't qualify. I'd be okay with this if it only happened occasionally, but it was like this with every shop for months. When I get fed up with something, that is it for me.
My best guess is that I have completed 50 assignments for this MSC over a 15 yr. period. The lone regret is the number is not 500. I agree with all Wales posted.
Curinos is terrible. Please don't take them. Leave them ALL for me :-P
Its been a while since they have had one with my credit score but there was one today. Wish I could have applied but I am furiously trying to finish my taxes before the extension deadline next week. C'est la vie but i hope it is still there in a few days.
They must be popular, I was unable to get a shop from them. I'll try next month if offered again.

Just be cool folks.
