Jas. Bond 007 comments in Issue #43:
For newbies I give this company a D. I would not recommend Regal Hospitality Group to a new shopper because of all the potential problems.
BOB'S opinion:
I totally agree and add that a 90+ day wait for reimbursement is completely unacceptable.
Jes. Bond continues:
On the other hand, for an experienced shopper, I would grade Regal with an A, and encourage the shopper to add Regal to their list of MSC’s, assuming that Regal had shops in areas frequented by the shopper.
BOB'S reply:
I slightly disagree, due to the 90+ day wait for reimbursement; I'd award a "B."
I completed 3 shops for Regal in the last decade, but nothing was available for a few years in my area. In 2011, I accepted a job, but upon learning they had greatly extended the payment period, I both canceled the work and requested de-activation. Any time an MSC waits 3+ months to pay, they either have a cash flow problem or have chosen to use my funds as an interest free loan; one's bad and the other certainly isn't good.
