Did anyone get their promised early, end of year pay today?

Ha! One shop specifically stated "if the shop is edited by the 30th you will be paid on the 31st…" It is not edited yet. Imagine that.
Yes. One I completed the 23rd still sits, unedited....
What MSC? I got a payment from Pinnacle today for a shop I did on 12/16. I was not expecting it until at least the end of January.
Intelli-shop, RBG were two of them...but many more promised.
RBG edited a shop I completed yesterday this morning. .... i wasn't promised pay for it this year, just commenting it was edited within 12hrs of submitting it.
RBG edited mine in 12 minutes, no lie.
I don't expect to get paid that quickly though.
I don't work for Intelli-shop much. They are full of crap and rarely reply to emails unless they need you. If you have a question about a shop - forget it.

My late-December shops have all been edited, but none of the MSCs offered me quick payment before the end of the month.
Dang it. I got e-mails AND phone calls, plus messages prominently displayed on websites! For shops that normally I would not take, but the incentive was do 'em this week, get paid 30th. Over $200 (close to $260) and not one red cent paid as promised. I don't care about the shops -- I already did 'em, anyway -- but don't make a promise and then not keep it! I was expecting the funds the 30th (no kidding!), and here I sit, broke and disconsolate 48 hours later! What if I did my shops 48 hours late? It wouldn't go down well with the
companies, would it? I am one irked shopper right now.

I don't blame you. Of course no one in the office until Monday either. Sorry to hear that.
I was surprised at how fast I was paid for many Dec shops. I already paid off my cc bill in full which included Xmas presents, Nice feeling to enter new year w/no debt.
Some people are working on Sat because they can't hold off the work until Monday. New month. New year.

Thanks. I've been doing this 8 years, and I do not remember any pay-before-the-end-of-the-year promises in other years.
I sure won't fall for it next year!

I even got paid already for a hotel shop done 10 days ago. Hotel & FD usually take longer to get edited nevermind paid for.
I received payments from four companies Wednesday and yesterday. I was paid by Trendsource, Jancyn, JM Ridgway and Technology Shopper.

Thanks for all the input. I sure know who to shop for next December!
while reading forum i just rec'd a PP payment for shop done right before Xmas. No promises of being paid at end of year but still a nice surprise to be paid on a national holiday.
I was paid 12/31 as promised by Albatross for a shop I did on 12/28.

I got paid from them once just by texting that I had done the shop. I had not even entered it yet!
I feel for you OP. That's pretty crappy to be promised that you'd be paid and to just fail to do it.
I did not do any jobs that specified an early payment, but I did get a huge pile of money into PayPal the last few days of the month.
I did a shop for JM Ridgeway and got paid early before Christmas.
I had only one company offer early payment, but by 12/31 all jobs done prior to 12/1 were paid and a number of December shops were paid early. I suspect it was a profitable year for a number of companies and they wanted to get as much expense shoved into 2015 as possible to offset the profits.
Instead of paying me with my other November shops when the payment was due on Dec 20th, Intellishop left one shop out (completed and scored a ten). I emailed about it and they said it would be "on or before the 31st of Dec," I haven't been paid.

I received payment a week ago for shops I did for AboutFace in early December. They had a note up that they would pay by end of month for shops done before Dec. 18. Those are the only December shops I have been paid for so far but I can't remember which other MSCs promised quick pay in December. I didn't track that unfortunately.
I did receive a flurry of payments in the past few days, but they were all for November shops. I still have three November shops left to be paid for (one from an MSC who paid me for a bunch of Nov shops but not the last one, so I am wondering if they are being very literal about 45 days), otherwise November is closed.

Now it's the 3rd, and definitely no "flurry of payments"...nada, zilch, zero, nothing and no thing. Geesh. But I'm happy for all you guys, who got your promised payments
I am so sorry to hear, Ceasesmith. It is Sunday so hopefully tomorrow will bring your payments. I didn't get paid, either, but I wasn't promised any payments.
You did not get any because you were not promised any?
Logic here? Why would you expect payment JASFLAMT?

Good grief, where is your logic today? Why are you reading into everything JASFLALMT write? She never said she was expecting payments. In fact, she made it clear she was not while offering some sympathy to another shopper. Combined with accusing her on another thread of violating guidelines, when she clearly did not, this is giving every indication of some sort of vendetta.

Tiresome, very tiresome, but rather pitiful. When forum members have so much time on their hands that they must target other forum members and follow them around the forum to make disparaging remarks, you can't help but pity them. Time to find more productive hobbies.
Or at least go after a troll. God knows we have enough of those.

It's super weird. I have one too. I sent a message and reported it, but nothing was done as far as I know.
