It wasn't that much money but I had driven out of my way, bought food I wouldn't eat, overpaid for gas and no payment. All because the store had the wrong address in it's register (only the one inside not on the gas pumps) something I think they would want to fix...
Sounds like a lot of work for nothing.@pegleg2000 wrote:
I did an Amazon store. I had a lot of areas I had to go to and encounters with employees. Pictures I had to take. I forgot to take one of the pictures so it was rejected.

Several years ago, I did 2 restaurants where I forgot to take pictures of the food. Nice evening out Reimbursement would have been about $90. In both cases, I just redid the shops. Can the reimbursement be used as a tax loss when I do my expenses for my taxes?

I got my dates mixed up once and didn't check into an expensive hotel. (Well, back then it was expensive.) 2 nights @ $200 a night. Wasted. I wrote it off an an expense, but it still stung.

I was doing a hardware store more than 200 miles away on a route. It turns out it closed earlier than normal, and I got there late, So I did it on my next route, which caused me to go about 90 miles out of my way. But I had committed to it, and I was not going to let them down even if I lost money on it. They ended up rejecting it because screwdrivers are not relevant to fixing a screen door.

I have had shops that state "Only ask once for a receipt" but also state "You will not be paid if you don't get a receipt". If I need a receipt to be paid, I'm getting one, even if I have to ask 10 times. Fortunately, it has never been an issue.@Morledzep wrote:
And the editor said that I should not have made a fuss over my receipt, but they weren't going to pay me without the receipt and the pics of the food, so I was supposed to just roll over and walk out without a receipt, and not get paid or reimbursed?
That was the question that got me deactivated. I refused to change my evaluation, and I questioned how I was supposed to get paid without a receipt after the editor told me that I should have just left when the waiter refused to give it to me.

I did a debit card shop a month or two ago and the signage stated that there was a charge for credit, but not for debit cards. The guidelines say if you do not think you'll incur a charge, don't buy anything. I did not buy anything since I was supposed to use a debit card. It was denied stating that I needed to make a purchase. I sent in an appeal because I believe I did the shop accurately. Of course, I never heard back.

In 2016, video shops were quite popular; I accepted one for a car dealership at $135. As I had visited the lot the prior yr., I was assured that shop had been removed from the dealer's computer; it had not and I was outed. Had I known I was still listed, my story would have been radically different. When the MSC refused to cover my expenses, I was willing to forego the fee, of a 111 ml. round trip, I terminated our agreement.

It appears that most of the Papa John's shops were rejected. It seems like that was their MO. Take the pictures and not pay the shopper for the lousy pizza.

I had a post office job rejected and rating of 1 given. When I got to the post office I saw a sign that said cash or check only posted on the lobby door. So I ran back to my car, thankfully had a check with me and ran back inside. I honestly reported that I joined the line 4 minutes after arriving at the post office I included a picture of the sign and an explanation of the situation. I did the shop and submitted. The next day, I got a grade of one and nonpayment because I did not immediately join the line at the post office, but that I took four minutes. I learned my lesson for next time. I will just leave, change the date of the shop, and not deal with anything that is an inconvenience. I thought they would want to know about things that are inconveniences or abnormal as that it effects customer service. I did email the reviewer to point out the abnormality and ask what they would suggest to do in that type of situation. I did not get a response.
