I was wondering in your experience what percentage of reports are rejected?
A small percentage of reports get rejected. It would range from 1-4% depending on the type of shop. Provided there was no evidence of directly violating rules or protocol, my MSC would work with any shopper to try to generate an acceptable report.
Some simply refused to follow-up, or hadn't performed the required tests...and it was the worst part of my job telling people that their shop could not be accepted. Almost everyone threatened legal action when a hotel report was declined. I don't think a single shopper ever actually went through with filing a case, though.
When I ultimately had a hotel report declined (not by the company I worked for) and admitted fault to the MSC owner, with an apology, they were so amazed about not having to deal with a fight, they offered to split the loss with me!
