The schedulers are really slow to respond. I contacted a scheduler yesterday morning to reschedule a shop because I would be in a different area. The same shop was in that different area, so I requested that location. It took the entire day and at least six emails back and forth - she just was not getting it. I gave up.

I sent them a message last month and received a reply later that day.

It really depends on the particular bank and the scheduling team which handles it. The schedulers for the Green and White East Coast Bank is absolutely superb. I have gotten responses from the main scheduler 15 minutes after emailing her at midnight. The regional Red and White Spanish-owned Bank has a team which is often but not always responsive. The Big Red national bank team is as slow as molasses in winter.

The schedulers for Ath that I work with are great. There are a few that don't get back right away. If I don't hear from them I contact the person in my log (assignments). Marie or Mary Beth. Mathew Minton is the director in the North East.

The bonus was $5 when I asked last year. I don't know if it's a different amount now.

I got 125.00 to open one about 4 months ago. If you can open one in spanish its $200.00 as long as that is the only language you use to open it.

I did a "privacy" checking account opening for $125 now (actually a week ago) and another $125 in 3 months for keeping the account open. Lots of scans to make and then upload (definitely a case where photos would not have captured all the fine print), but otherwise the first report was easy.

no that was about checking account to open. I remember in the past they never ever reply to e-mails. Likely this is their business style!

gene,
Don't take this the wrong way! Your English and spelling in this forum is poor. That could be why you are not getting a return email. How many shops have you done for ATH? The bonus is usually in the job form.

It says to "ask" about the bonus. I asked last April and received a bonus above the $20 fee when I opened an account with this particular bank. I was then able to do Teller shops. The bonus is not "hidden". It says "please ask" and I suggest that if you are willing to open an account that you "ask" what the bonus would be. As of today,. I have completed 1255 shops for Ath Power since 2008.

I would like to find out more about your communications with Ath Power. Is that okay?
