ATH POWER

Maybe I'm missing something, but I didn't see this one come up in search. Does anyone know if this company grades, or is it typical to see month old shops noted as "received", but without any kind of rating?

1. Have never received a "Grade" from them.
2. They always pay like clockwork...winking smiley

Shopping Bama and parts of Georgia.
I'm still learning 24/7.
Thanks, mrcomputer101. That's good to know. The scheduler for my first shop was pretty uncommunicative, so seeing nothing other than "received" (not even "completed"winking smiley for such a long time made me uneasy. I recently accepted a few more shops, and already, the scheduler on this set has been VERY communicative!
I don't think they play show and tell with their grades. I've never gotten one shared with me, though I'm certain they have a shopper ranking system. I did get a check today for February shops. Last one, as always, to pay.
I got a check from them today too, but it was for mid March shops. I wasn't expecting it for a couple more weeks.
They only way you will hear from a scheduler is if they have a question on a shop or if they need you to do a rush shop for them. They have been moving schedulers around from state to state.

I am actually paid through March, which is quite unusual. I have had to email several times in the past for payment.
So I see this is a common situation. I was flipping out when I never received any feedback from ATH Power. The thing is I don't mind their shops but its like standing in front of the minister waiting for the groom to say I do and just getting a nod.
I think any good shopper would like to have some idea of their success or lack of before that long waiting period of waiting for a check passes.
I have never shopped for them as they have only ever had one or two things in this area (ever) over the past couple of years that I have been signed up with them. Payment problems aside (when going non-communicative is a huge issue...) I don't mind at all those companies that give no feedback and don't contact me at all after I submit a report. If the job offers keep coming in from them, I know everything is fine and dandy. :-)

I've shopped for them. No problems with them with the shop or payment. I love them! They are a great company.
Did my first shop for ath in early February. Their website said I got paid 4/4 but I didn't receive a check until last week. 3 months!
Does anyone know the specified payment schedule for ATH? I've looked, but can't find it on the site.
I did 5 shops for them in January and received payment for all 5 shops on 3-20-10. I did one shop for them on 3-17 and was received payment for that one on 5-7-10.
They pay by check in the mail. The check gets cut the end of the month following the shop. Processing (?) and mail gets it to the shopper a week or two later.
