Does anyone know how many shops you have to do for CORI before you get a "5" rating?

I have done 36 jobs, all with a 5 rating and am still a 4.9, so I am wondering the same thing.
What kind of new math is that? 25/5.0 = 4.9?
There have been discussions of this over the years and there are apparently some internal criteria that go into their number. I forget exactly what it is, but unlike most ratings you can see, it is not just your average shop rating that determines your rating. I really don't pay attention to it because I know I can destroy my rating with poor shops but not improve it much, if at all. I could be wrong, but I just checked and I think I am down .1 from a couple of years ago even though I have done no shops for them in the intervening time, so I may have lost a little just by not shopping for them.
I think once I reached 50 or so? Then I got the 5.0 rating, not sure but this is how it shows now:
You have completed 78 jobs since 8/3/2004 7:26:59 PM.
Your auditor rating is 5.0 out of 5.

This question has come up before. Their rating is of little consequence to me. Simple shops and reports. Having said that, for me, it was 50.
I have completed 87 jobs since 01/01/2007, all my shops were rated 5 but one that they received one minute after midnight, for this "shopper error" my rating went down to 4.7.

Son-in-law is 4.8 and he's late alllllllllllll the time. lol Mine is 4.4 and mine are in much closer to on time but I've had to cancel a few due to my health. Seems like I've gotten lots of 5s and the rating never goes up even though I'm on time.

I asked this question and I was given this answer.
Shop quality ratings and Shop performance ratings are two different systems. If a shop is reported late it causes a deduction of your shop performance rating. IE...4.9 out of 5. Your shop quality ratings are sent to you via email after each shop is reviewed. These ratings are used to determine self assign shops and auto assigned shops.

I missed several shops due to illness, snowstorms, laziness, etc. My rating is now posted at 3.0, but I still can't self assign. Before it used to say at 3.0 you could self assign. I give up. I just wait until the middle to end of the month when the commissions become higher and then apply. No way am I doing a gas shop for $3!
What do you know, after my 38th shop of all 5s, I am finally a level 5 shopper!
So I was right, it had to be at least 37, the magic number is 38, thanks for letting us know!

The answer is that EVERY shopper, before doing any shops, starts out with a "free" shop that is rated 3, which is never removed.
So, when you do your first shop, and get a 5, your rating is now 4.0. When you do another shop and get a 5, your rating is now (3+5+5)/3 = 4.3. Eventually when you've got 4.95 it now rounds up to 5.0. That would take 39 shops, of all 5, to get a 5.0.
Hope this helps...

BEWARE- if they send you an email for clarification and you never get it in regular or spam you are still accountable for that invisible email.

No, I am sure there is not an advantage, but I just like the thought of "straight A's."
Why on Earth do people shop this company? Shops are $2-6 and retail shops requiring purchase have $0 fee and reimbursement is not enough to cover a basic clothing item???
I would really love to know the answer to this one.

There is no answer. I only shop the grocery stores near my house, getting $10 in free groceries and the fee, which hopefully is bonused (minimum $5).

Those are the starting fees - I don't believe I have ever done one at a starting price. The fees rise as the month and urgency looms on behalf of the company. Once I started getting the daily commissions rise emails and saw shops going for much larger feess I started paying attention. The first two shops I did for the company were easy shops that paid 25.00 each...I think they start out at 3-5. It's a matter of watching their page and knowing when the commissions are worth it to you. So that is why I shop for them.

I will gladly do some of their shops at around $10 or so, give or take with reimbursements because there are shops that I frequent and enjoy going to anyway, and they are easy reports. Did 3 I think in the past couple of weeks. These shops start out at $3 and I laugh. I have had some as high as $21 or so. There is a shop in an out of the way area I have seen go for $50.
3offthecharts You are so right. With the pay going lower and lower, not even talking about phone shops and then the company asking for follow up but with no email to be found? They think we like working for free? Not me. Like the $3 ones. Drive to a store, interact, drive home, do report.. all for $3! That is working for free and in the end costing you. Time and gas are not free.

That's what I mean. I see the commission rise e-mails daily-but they are on 10 foot pole shops for me (hardware, gas, etc)
The ones I actually want go for base prices ($0-5). Who is that desperate??? I want them, but I am not doing them for free, apparently someone else is willing to.

Yeah, just wait and they will rise. Otherwise I feel sorry for someone who would take a job at that low of a price. Their starting rate is just laughable. By the way, I am now up to 32 shops at a 5 rating, so apparently only five more to go, as someone hit a 5 rating on his 37th shop.
I am at 35 shops with two tomorrow so I will let you know - never gotten anything but a 5.

OOOH, can't wait to hear if that is the magic number or not.

Do you think it's new shoppers? When I was first getting back into this, I took a $5 shop (with a $7 reimbursement--and I was so excited, lol!) before I realized it was three hours of work. We live and learn! When I see those shops go for $5, that's all I can attribute it to--other newbies like myself!

Bingo Late Rain It IS new shoppers. After the newness wears off and not sure of that number most everyone slides to 4.5 with no changes.
SO numbers mean nothing to them.
And beware they are the ones that send emails so they think that never arrive. Hence they have a way out of paying for a shop by saying you missed an email that was never there.

If you wamt to see your rating drop from 4.9 to 3.9 real quick just cancel a shop after you initially accept.
