BBB New Company, but how many times???

New company listing these I saw today, but I wish they would change the gift registry request! How many months in a row can I go in asking for a gift registry without being spotted as the shopper?

It would be so much better if they would change up these more often. Why can't they realize if they do the gift registry every three months during the course of the year - that would be less suspicious.

At least this does not start out at $4.00 and then waiting until it is bonused and missing it! Wonder if this new company bonuses? Never done anything for them before.

I used to get good bonuses to do the BBB shops at the old company. I never did one for $4 and waited until I wanted to do it. There were always shoppers who would take them for $4 so I didn't get every location every month.

I'm not bothered by the gift registry request. The company doesn't change the requirement because that is one of the things they want to measure. They are not concerned with protecting the anonymity of those shoppers who do the same shop and same location every month. Actually, I think the company would prefer to have a variety of shoppers doing each location instead of one who does it every month.

I try to look like a new shopper every time I go. I go at different times. I try to go at busy times. Like, I would never go at noon on Wednesday - only a few people working and almost no customers. They have time to really look at me and follow me around insisting on helping me. I go on Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon when there are at least 14-15 workers.

I don't know the new company. Now that I have started doing more shops, I better sign up with more companies. I sure liked how fast the old company paid.

I'm puzzled. I've never noticed anything out of the ordinary about the names or locations. Why about them is a dead giveaway? Maybe I'm just not very observant about things like that. But now I'm curious.
I haven't found anything that I can do for this company in ages. Their pay is just too low, even after the $2.00 bonuses in my area, $10.00 is not enough for me to have to deal with IE.

OK, perhaps we could be proactive and help the new MSC with suggestions for new names and items for the registries...
There would be oversized throw pillows on the registry of Hugh Jass.

I went through all aspects of this companies site. Prophet 4 software is fully workable with the Nightly build of Firefox. Yes, I live on the cutting edge.

You can install both the current released version of Firefox browser and the MUCH newer and better beta release of it and have it share the same data, bookmarks, and everything else and have two icons on your desktop. You cant run them both at the same time, but you can close one and then run the other.

Works for ALL platforms and operating systems.

Give Nightly a test drive today! (I will bonus this job with my 1 cent of knowledge)

Thanks for the tip! I will try that, their pay is still too low though.

If it's the old company, what does Prophet have to do with it? Their site actually works with other browsers most of the time. The problem, if you use anything other than IE and the report is lost or files corrupted the blame is place squarely on you and your browser.

The one that was SO obvious was over Christmas. First initial of both bridge and groom was the same and it all was in rhyme, Cannot recall now but if you said both the bride and groom it was SO obvious. And then address was the same....
the same first.....
an example but not exact

Donald....Dandy... groom
Donna.....Dana bride
live on Doodle....Drive in Dallas......
but when you said it quickly it was WEIRD!
Oh and the questions recently was to asked where the wedding rings were sold in the store.... good luck on that one! Royal wave white flag...

Yeah, I hated asking for the wedding ring. I've never worked for the new company yet, so not sure about this change. sad smiley

New company uses Prophet.
That still doesn't have anything to do with Pammie not dealing with the old company because they pay too low for her to use IE.
