New shopper to Second to None

I have done shops for Second-to-none for many years and have never printed that many pages for anything! The cable shops are not that hard or that long.

More Discussions About Second to None (All Companies)

I have never seen a cable shop with 153 pages, but their instructions usually do include a copy of the report form which make the number of printed pages more than might be expected.

"Evolve thyself and lose all hate...." Orphaned Land

I've done quite a few shops for them. They have been great to work with. I take the cable shops when they bonus them. I did the donut shop once to justify eating the donuts! I did a lab shop with a bonus. I've mostly done the healthcare shops because the pay is pretty good for an hour of my time. None of the reports have been difficult or time consuming. Like every other MSC, I check their job boards and if I see something I like, I sign up for it.

I have to echo her comments. STN is a great company to work for, but wait for the bonused assignments. Bree is excellent and she is very supportive of her shoppers. She makes it pleasant experience to work with STN.

I like Second to None. There is money to be made if you can stack shops in a particular area. One word of advice...Do the Medicare, United Health care if you can in your area. You can do 3-5 shops per day without any problems and they $15-$35.00 each. If you are motivated you can make over $1000.00 per month just doing these shops. Good Luck in 2016

I am glad that I am not the only one! They owe me 20.00 for a shop done on 08/2104, and 25.00 for one done on 11/2015. The one done on 11/2015 was canceled(because it was cold and the church had no hea) but I still had a form of 88 questions.I was the only CLIENT there. This was info the agent gave me in the parking lot of a church. It should have been paid 15.00 and then I should have been sent to the REAL EVENT the next day at Golden Coral.

Hi. I never had an issue with STN and never any instructions with the number of pages you claimed to download. I worked with them for a couple of years and developed a good rapport with the schedulers in charge of certain shops. I can request and get assigned for shops that were outside of the certain dates for the shops from the schedulers. Usually the number of pages to download the instructions were under 3 pages.

I've shopped for a second to none and have done cable stuff for them. you might have made a mistake when you printed out your pages. I think they are very reasonable company- they pay on time and they evaluate your reports within a reasonable time.

I'll second the motion. Second to none is an excellent company to work for

I've enjoyed working with STN. I've done a lot of the medicare shops, which pay pretty well and aren't difficult. Never had any payment problems with STN. The cable shops are further than I normally travel (we have a different cable co in my area). I would do the lab shops, but the ones that show up in my list of available shops are always for males. Which I am not.....

I just wish they had more shops in my area.

I learn something new every day, but not everyday!
I've learned to never trust spell-check or my phone's auto-fill feature.

I have done several shops for Second to None and encountered no difficulties. The shops were easy, paid reasonably well ($20) and they paid when they said they would. So two thumbs up from me for Second to None.

i have done many, many assignments for STN mostly scheduled with Bree. Bree is one of the very best schedulers that i have encountered: open lines of communication on a very timely basis, is very accommodating with scheduling conflicts that arise from time-to-time, will intercede with editors if warranted.

ummm...you took an assignment for november, 2015 AFTER they failed to pay you for an assignment that was done in august of 2104?

first problem that i have with this..."2104" has not happened and i guess that you mean 2004?

second problem that i have with this...i'm confused by your narrative.

WTF is all i can say about this.

i aint buying the OP's story

My interpretation was 2014. I could be wrong, but it seems she went to a Medicare presentation which was cancelled because the venue had no heat. She gleaned this information from the agent who was waiting for attendees in the parking lot. I'm totally lost on why it should have paid either $15 or $25 since I have always been paid in full for no show agents or cancellations requiring me to actually go to the site. The 88 question report also has me stumped. In the past the report form has been abbreviated.
