Actually, there is no company with the name of "Trend Source" anymore, so........this is weird.

I don't understand your questions. You can always call them. They are on West Coast time.

Im. Not so sure anymore. I did 6 shops for them back in september and have not been paid to this day. Before anyone makes some smart aleck remark...yes they were completed and submitted with no issues. I guess you chalk it up to experience.
Yes did all of the above. All my shops except 2 say no issues. The two that say had issues that were resolved. Checked payment history as well and no payment history. So a one off event maybe? Will keep updated on if/when i hear back.@kenasch wrote:

Did you click on Project History? That will show all of the projects you have completed and the paid date. It also shows if there are any issues. Have you contacted them through the Support/Contact Us link? They have always responded to me within 24 hours, except on weekends. Also check the Messages and Feedback links. This company is the one of the fastest paying in the industry. They pay me via direct deposit.

I signed up for a FF shop where you buy lemonade and then reveal yourself before taking pictures. At the time of sign up, there was only a general description of the shop with no detailed instructions. I thought the required purchase was originally 1/2 gallon of lemonade (they do sell the container from their cooler) but when the final instructions were released the required purchase was apparently changed to a 20 oz cup of lemonade. The photos and details required on the report do not justify the small fee plus the reimbursement for a cup of lemonade. I have shopped with Trendsource for many years with no problems and issues. I will continue to do so, but will now hesitate to accept shops before all of the details/instructions are known, particularly for a new shop/client. .

I did this shop on Monday. I took four pictures and bought a 20 ounce lemonade. The drink was fully reimbursed. The fee was $8. What did you have a problem with?

Thanks for your reply. I am in the process of contacting the area manager for my area and getting some questions answered. I read in the forum where someone who worked for trend source did not get payed. That does not sound good. I hope that is not the case.
Thanks for letting me know this. I'm emailing the scheduler now to remove my application. The fee+reimbursement was iffy, but I figured that at least I'd have the lemonade and it was a filler. Getting a cup instead of a container tips the scale.@kenasch wrote:
I wrote to customer service about the lemonade purchase requirement changing . They only apologized and offered to remove the shop. I already did it so will live with it.
