Anyone else noticing MSPs a little slow to approve shops this week?

I've been getting a little paranoid. On Saturday I did 16 audits for Mintel and 2 gas stations for CoRI (among other shops). On Monday I did two FFs for Insula. None of them have been approved yet. My other shops were already approved, but none of those that I mentioned.

My CoRI gas stations have always been approved within 2 days and the same with Mintel. I was hoping or wondering if maybe they were just backed up due to trying to get shops in before the holidays.

I haven't noticed anything different, but then, I am always in the "no news is good news..." camp on the MSC/contractor relationship when it comes to reports (not pay issues, tee hee.)

Haha, ok I will think of it that way.

The thing making me nervous with the Insula audit is that I know for sure I messed up on one of them. I said that a price was not on the menu and then I noticed yesterday that it was so I figured I would be getting something from them and nothing.

Why not just write them and straighten it out, saying that you reported it incorrectly by accident. They might bump it out, but at least you will have done your part to be the best, most honest shopper you could be.

I thought of that, but I could not find any contact info for Insula. I checked the page of my completed shops to see if they had some sort of email address there but I couldn't find one. They were my first shops with that company.

Check your email because chances are that someone sent you an email either advising of shop availability or of shop assignment.
