I got this reply from the help desk.
-------------------------------------------------------
Good morning,
Thanks for writing in. In order to meet faster turn-around times/deadlines for our clients, we are having to move up the reporting period requirements. You will see this change noted on your CPI :
“Report your results online as soon as possible but no later than (8) hours after your shop is completed. Upload/scan your receipts at the time you enter your report.”
We realize this might affect your decision to take some shops you would ordinarily be able to accept. If you have any further questions, please let us know.
---------------------------------------------------------
Unlike the notice on the website this message made no mention of arbitrarily shortening the reporting times. Who do we believe? I replied to the mail that the deadline should be clearly indicated in the shop listing or on the pre-assignment quiz, as we don't get to see the CPI until we accept the shops, and would have to cancel if the deadline did not work into our schedules.
I don't expect to get another reply, but we'll see. I hope more shoppers will flood the help desk with this concern and maybe they will reconsider.
proudly shopping in the D.
