Does Maritz know what they are doing?

I signed up for 2 gas station shops. Couldn't find my camera battery so I asked if the one coming up in the next week could be changed to the week after that (was within the time limits). Now they are no longer on my current shops tab, they are in my requested shops tab with Status: Not Scheduled. and on top of that, I got a call on my answering machine today from the scheduler saying they had a couple of shops available in my area and they were those 2. ???

If the shops are showing as "requested," then you need to speak with someone on the phone to get them assigned. They called you to do this purposely, not because they don't know what's going on.
No, they are confused, very confused. On Monday morning, a team member called me. I answered the phone and she asked how she could help me. I said, "You called me so I have no idea how you can help me."
Aw Come On Folks! As much money as they make - They gotta know something!!!...winking smiley

I have always found the good people at this MSC to be kind, pleasant, helpful and rather charming.

OTOH, if one looks very carefully, one may find a flaw within even the most perfectly perceived person or organisation.

(With apologies to Pollyanna)
I just wanted to rock the boat. I have nothing against Maritz. Worse companies out there to shop for

Just an added comment - take it how you wish:

If I had a shopper call me and say that they needed their scheduled shops changed because they lost their camera's battery, I would certainly help them the best I could.

However, I would also consider the excuse as a lack of organisation and professionalism on the shopper's part and hence tread carefully with that shopper as far as assigning important shops.

IOW, if I were that shopper, I would consider every means possible to performing the shops before calling the MSC for a re-schedule.

Sounds like the "dog ate my homework" excuse.
What ever happens to the poor kid whos dog actually did eat his homework. you don't have a backup battery for your camera?

Shopping Western NY, Northeast and Central PA, and parts of Ohio and West Virginia. Have car will travel anywhere if the monies right.
Got a call from them for grocery audits P2 the other day. They were not even due to be started yet, they offered me a bonus on each shop. I am doing them next week.
I have an extra battery for both my Nikon DSLR cameras [I wish they used the same battery]. I also have a point and shoot Kodak that takes AA.

ETA...I also have the camera in the phone as an absolute last resort.

You can even use your phone camera, transfer the pictures to your computer and there is a program called Zamzar that will convert it in the format required by the company for you and its FREE.

I just received an email to pick up some gas stations. I went and logged in. My default radius with them is 20 miles. The nearest location was 35 miles, the furthest was 70. Go figure?

And no bonus offered on any of them. I think I'll pass for the time being.

Their radius search has been off ever since they "upgraded" their system towards the end of 2014. It makes it harder to plan out a route.
