Call them.

Do you know what team it is with? I would call them. They are one of the most responsive companies I work with.

Um, ICA, anyone?

So, since the name of the MSC is in the title, just phone, tell them the client's name, and ask for that team, if you don't know the number of it.

I believe it's Team 5.

The harder I work, the luckier I get.

Maritz is one of my favorite MSC's to complete assignments for. Talk to team 5 at 1-800-782-4299. I just called them to verify my payment amount for my check, as one of my shops was on the borderline of their cutoff (shopped the 29th, cutoff is the 30th). They are easy to talk to and very helpful.

Not scheduling for ANY company.

I just started with Maritz this year and like them for a company, they pay on time and I have a monthly shop they send me. They now call me for overdue shops they need done, last week I just hung up the phone on one and my landline rang with another shop from Maritz

What is their new website address? I haven't worked for them in three or four years, and the old website address no longer pops up.

Never mind. It was only with Chrome that it wouldn't come up. I use Chrome almost exclusively now. I went back to Internet Explorer and it popped up.

Funny I use chrome and maritz comes up fine for me.

Shopping Western NY, Northeast and Central PA, and parts of Ohio and West Virginia. Have car will travel anywhere if the monies right.

I've come to appreciate Maritz. They are a very organized and fair company, willing to work with you. They may not offer the highest rates, but they offer bonuses and their shops are not difficult to do. I'm glad to be shopping for them.

Yes ... those tag lines are annoying.

I try to block them out (they are mind numbing...) but when there is no distinction between an actual useful comment and the useless gunk on the end it is super annoying.

I signed up with them ages ago, but I can't see available shops. I've tried different browsers, nothing works. I've called them numerous times, but they have no idea why I can't see them. You would think they have an IT department who could figure it out, but they just pass me from one team to another. I've given up.

I agree with putting a line or something at the beginning of your tag lines to distinguish them from the the actual post. But I disagree that tag lines are "annoying and mind numbing." I think some of them are very creative and some of them have an actual message (like my current one.)

Everyone has the right to their opinion so this does not need to turn in "Tag Line Wars 2014." If you do not like to read the tag lines, don't. It is just that easy.

I can't wait until that comes out on Netflix. I'm gonna binge-watch the whole season on the first night it's available!

I strive to be useless and super annoying. Glad to know I've succeeded!

bgriffin - Oddly enough, your's is the only tag line that I don't find necessarily annoying. It is short and clever and noticeably separate from the comment itself.

I guess it is the 3, 4, 5, 6 lines of text/ sigs that stretch out each comment box that I find grating. Too bad there isn't a "toggle" switch for just that - kind of like a pop up blocker but for sig lines.

Every time I get a call from Maritz (and I get them quite frequently) I get this mental image that I am talking with one of Gladys's neighbors from the Esurance Commercial (the old lady who saves time by pasting her photos on her living room wall and tries to unfriend one of her neighbors who points out this is not how any of this works).

The Merits people are generally quite plesant and kind but they don't apparently even have access to e-mail.l They often seem perplexed by their own scheduling software and not too well informed about their own shops. I never seem able to get really worked up over the issues overthere, I just wait for the call to finally be over with and then I say to myself while driving down the road "That's not how this works.....it's not how any of this works."

It works for me.

You may want to reconsider putting your email address in your signature line here. This is a public forum that is crawled by google and spammers will harvest that address and bury you with junk mail.

Time to build a bigger bridge.

Agreed.

Agreed again. When I first started shopping for them, I was really frustrated. Now I just try to let it roll off my back. But it's still annoying.

I am getting more calls from them now. I guess completing shops on time and taking the extra ones they need helps with them. It is nice getting a check so fast afte shopping.

I LOVE that commercial, it still cracks me up!
