Has anyone done the Medicare phone shops?

These are shops where you tell the agent you live in Calif and part time in Texas. You have to get quotes on many of the Medicare supplement plans ( F, M.N.G...) for both states. They pay $25. It seems too much work for so little pay.

Yes too much work too little pay. Recorded to boot which means risk of some editor declining shop based on your forgetting to ask a question. The scenario is unrealistic. A real person would not ask about 2 states and so many plans. Plus msc lies saying shop takes 15 to 20 minutes! I have done many Medicare shops in the past and given agent trying to sell you something calls last minimum 40 minutes after which report needs to be written. . They can keep their $25. I suggest no one takes these

How I see it is that MSC is trying to get 2 shops done for one fee. The shop would be OK if it was broken into two segments- one a call saying you live in California and getting all the facts. That call would last at least 30 minutes for one state. Then a second shop a second fee for Texas. Cheap company wants to get 2 shops done for one fee. I will not be bothered. They can keep their $25- not making a fool of myself for $25.
You were warned 1forum….these shops need to be avoided by the everyone…need to send a message to msc
