Which ones who are members of the MSPA are not reliable?
Being a member of MSPA does not automatically mean a company is reliable. Several companies who were members of MSPA closed their businesses leaving shoppers unpaid. Freeman, a long-time MSPA member, who was at one time defended by the MSPA, had a long-time record of very, very late payment for years, which I call unreliable. Suddenly, Freeman went to NO payment, then closed their doors, leaving many unpaid shoppers, some of whom were out thousands of dollars. JC & Associates was another who closed his doors leaving unpaid shoppers, although he apparently was able to fund a new business. Nationwide Services Group, another MSPA member company, was the only company (so far, knock on wood!) to ever stiff me. They were good as gold -- until they weren't. They went out of business owing shoppers, including me, money. I'm sure there are others.
Being an MSPA member does not automatically mean that a MS company is reliable. And, just because a company is reliable today does not mean they will be reliable next month or next year. Stay aware and watch for trends that might mean a change in reliability.
