The thread is hilarious. I can't believe anyone would actually expect an answer to the original question. I would recommend Confero and Freeman Group. Expecially if you're traveling overseas or want to deal with poor instructions.
Wow! I have been mystery shopping for 10+ years, but have not been active on this website.
While I understand it seems that the original poster might be asking for a "silver platter" of information, we were all new once and it wouldn't hurt to remember that...
I am really surprised at the nasty, sarcastic comments.

Oh, Eileen ,this is a really good forum. I think people were (are) just put off by the demanding approach the original poster made.

To paraphrase, Give a shopper a job and they will shop for a day, teach a shopper how to build their business and they will shop for a lifetime

I've been following this every day and yall are a hoot and a half. Sorry I had to back off for a few days and work. I'm planning to cut back so I have more time to read this forum and express my appreciation for the fine jobs offered here. I am planning to pick up some of them as soon as I clear my schedule, which I carelessly allowed to become clogged with assignments (as if I have time for such trivia).
A quick report to keep in touch: Ollie, BBob and I are doing well here on Hungry Hill. We are looking forward to firming up some long road trips and spending time visiting in your homes, and as soon as we get some of these jobs finished up, you'll hear more from our house. I'm getting back with you on every one of these job offers with my comments and suggestions for minor revisions which are important to me and should not be a problem for you to accommodate if you make enough effort.
To EileenS, welcome to the thread. I apologize for offending anyone and never meant to be hateful or mean. Yes, the original poster got lost in the shuffle but a couple of us did offer helpful information and no response came back to the thread from the original poster.
We then drifted off into random conversations and started having fun with each other. It's great to communicate with other shoppers who deal with our issues every day, as this is lonely work and those on the outside are no fun. We have each other to kid around with (yes, I know that's a hanging participle or preposition or verb or something, whatever). We don't have any work buddies out there on the streets, and only insiders get our twisted jokes.

Glad you are back MD. I sent a long post explaining to you that my dog's doghouse had been foreclosed on so I could not put her out with it on the curb..you see she is a movie extra and work has been slow. she missed one too many payments..there went the doghouse. I have no idea what happened to that post and I cannot find it here. Maybe the dog ate my post (similar to the dog ate my homework). Suffice it to say, the offer still stands but Ollie and BBob may not be standing by the time you leave here.
There are some very good companies out there. However, the best ones are like the old saying, "The best ones are already taken."
That means it depends.

Happily shopping Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts and Connecticut
Yes, apples and pears to the lovely British area. I love England.

Are we still doing this? I thought we finished it several days ago. This has actually got more play than some of the more serious ones. I had to work for a few days so I left for awhile, gotta catch them while you can. Nothing happening here in June so far, Oh that is another thread oops. Anyway, I just had to take a peek when I saw it was still going on. Loved the paraphrase by Lisa STL well done!
MD glad to hear you and the kitties Ollie and BBob are well. Also glad you did not take offense when I had to withdraw my offer due to the conflict between the kitties and our pampered squirrels. Someday we gotta all find a neutral location and meet for coffee.

Dear Avon,
We at Happy Kitty House can offer your two sweetums a 3 days stay at the cost of $5,000,000,000 to be reimbursed 50 years after the death of the last of their descendants. They will dine on lobster and trout caught 6 months after their departure. You will have to spend $450,000 on secret camera collars for them to wear. This will be refundable minus a $400,000 restocking fee upon completion of the shop. Your shoppers fee will be $0.01. If you agree to these terms please contact me at 1-800-cat-food.
Sincerely,
Katherine

Wow! Is this a sample of your writing! It is good practice, at all times to use proper grammar and punctuation. It will make filling in reports and applications easier. You may find it difficult to accept many of the jobs without a car. I would suggest taking the low paying jobs to get your foot in the door. (Also if your report gets rejected for whatever reason it's only a few dollars out of your pocket.) It is not uncommon for schedulers to interact while looking for suitable shoppers.

If I can add to this, I did a simple google search and came up with this:

When I became a mystery shopper, I paid a small fee for a company that provided an overall training program and list of companies in my area. It's worth the effort.

There are not many companies who offer paper checks anymore. Everything is electronic (whether PayPal or Direct Deposit). Your options will probably be limited...

CindyTR, that's me did not ask the question of 100 companies, that was posetd by someone else. I merely commented....Try signing up for a bunch of companies and see what they have. That is what we have all done, our own hard work.
Blueeyes - I get checks from a few companies, trying to remember which ones. Here are some: Maritz, New Image, Business Resources, Quality Assessments, Bestmark, and Sutter Peformance. Most payments are deposited at PayPal and my checking account. I've had PayPal for years and never had a problem.
Mary Davis Nowell. Based close to Fort Worth. Shopping Interstate 20 east and west, Interstate 35 north and south.
I get checks from Retail Eyes (just changed their name), Market Force and Secret Shopper. Like MD above I have Paypal and have had no problems with them at all.
Blueyes: If you have concerns about paypal let us know. It is secure and dependable. If you do not have a checking acct. you can put it on a prepaid card, paypal or other. No worries. At least from my long term experience.
