Dear All Mystery Shopping Companies...

Please stop with the nesting forms. If you insist on this blasted forms than expect them to sit on the board until the price is higher than $40. These forms take hours to complete and are complicated. They require the shopper to sit at a wifi location until they are completed which means they can not be pre-uploaded and completed during the day as soon as the shop is completed. This further means more time away from more important things and less money for the shopper.

So not doing any more cell phone shops! I am tempted to return these shops since they are not worth the $20 I signed up for. My travel time is one thing then there is the form time which is taking no less 1.5 hours! The shops are easy. I get that however make the forms to match. I don't know maybe narratives or multi choice. Anything but these nest of snakes...

What is a nesting form?

Maybe the form is pregnant.

I'm lost.

A nesting form is the bane of all sanity. You click one answer and 20 more questions pop up. So you click those 20 questions to get another 10 questions popping up. So you click through those 10 and holy bleepin bleep another 40 questions come up! and so it goes. Flippin Russian nesting dolls that never stop coming up with more questions...

I feel your pain. They're frustrating. You look at the form before the shop and see 40 questions, most of which are yes/no, and so you grab four more of the same shop, figuring that they just barely meet your pay requirements. After doing the first shop, you go to enter your results and half of those 40 questions have 4-6 nested questions underneath. Now the shop is on the "no way in hell" list.

I know that these take up less space, but they feel dishonest. I feel taken; that's going to be reflected in the next month when every shop is going to require a bonus for me to do them.

Now scheduling travel shops for the day after Christmas through mid-January.

I came across a form like that once, I wanted to cry because the form was so much more extensive than I thought it would be and it was frustrating because it was asking for things that I had not been looking for (I was new) I won't shop for that company anymore because of that form.

And how do companies that put together those nesting forms expect you to gather all the data they need if they don't tell you what they're looking for?!?

No Clue, that was my problem, now that I have been shopping for 5 years I would probably have all of the information that they would require but I was new at the time and it was a struggle.

It is completely frustrating to find nesting forms when you finish a shop, think you have all you need, and then begin to enter it....I hate it and avoid them at all costs when I find one....

What companies use nesting forns? Can't you look at the survey questions ahead of time. If all the nesting crap after I accepted it, I would tell them to stick it!!
