Has anyone heard of this company and are they okay to shop for? Where are their shops located?

This is a good company to shop for. CTCSS does their scheduling. They are a Prophet company, report form is reasonable, and I have always been paid promptly.

I have been with them for years and received a strange e-mail last night. It said I began the application and never finished. Funny, I've performed shops and been paid for them.

Isn't that weird? Rather than click on the links I tried to log in and it was no problem.

@ LisaSTL and ShopPro: Sounds like a scam to me and that they were trying to get personal information out of you.

I have performed several shops for BMA (usually for the same client) and I have never had a payment issue. I did not get the e-mail though.

That's why I didn't go with the links. I haven't done anything for BMA lately, but have worked for their other divisions. From my limited computer knowledge the return address, etc., looked fine. There was still no need to take any chances. If it appears there is some type of issue with my account I will give them a call or e-mail someone directly.

The are all under the umbrella of the Troy Dolan Group. I think there are three or more, but the only other I can recall is Customer 1st. I like both of them. Fair pay and reports. Always paid on time.

Lisa, I got that same email. I logged in to see what was up and could log in fine as usual. I shop for them every chance I get - although usually only 4-5 shops a year.

It must have been some glitch in their system. No harm, no foulsmiling smiley
